About this property
This contemporary penthouse apartment sits 150 metres from Watergate Bay Beach on the North Cornwall coast, overlooking the gardens of its development. Well suited to surfers, families, and couples, the property is set up for an active beach holiday centred on watersports and coastal walking. Watergate Bay's 2 miles of sand are exposed to incoming Atlantic swell, making the bay an excellent spot for surfing, kayaking, stand-up paddle boarding, and kite surfing – a surf school operates directly on the beach. The coast path connects to Newquay's seven bays in one direction and Mawgan Porth in the other, opening up miles of dramatic clifftop rambling. Surf competitions and music festivals run throughout the year, and the beach draws a lively crowd of wave riders, families, and thrill seekers alongside beachfront restaurants and cafes.
High semi-domed ceilings run throughout the apartment, creating a bright and spacious feel that sets the tone for the whole interior. The open-plan living area forms the centre of the layout, with a leather armchair and double sofa bed arranged around a Smart TV with SkyTV and DVD player. Patio doors open onto a Juliet balcony with views over the gardens, flooding the room with natural light. A dining table seats four alongside the kitchen area, which is well fitted for self-catering stays. An iron, ironing board, and hairdryer are also provided, along with a selection of DVDs for quieter evenings in. The double bedroom features a zip-and-link bed that can be configured as a king-size double or two singles, offering flexibility for couples or friends travelling together. The bathroom has a bath with shower over the bath, heated towel rail, and WC.
A secure storage cage in the basement provides dedicated space for surf boards, wetsuits, and beach toys. A surf shower is available for rinsing off after a day on the sand, shared with other residents in the development. Designated parking is provided for one car.
