About this property
This clifftop apartment overlooks Porthtowan Beach on Cornwall's north coast, with an uninterrupted view across the sand and out to sea. A retreat for couples seeking surf, sea air, and coastal walking, it offers direct access onto the beach via steps right outside the door. Porthtowan sits at the foot of high cliffs, where a pretty sandy beach backed by dunes meets the rugged north Cornwall coastline. Surf hire and lessons are available on the beach, and the coast path runs along the clifftops, connecting to neighbouring beaches along this striking stretch of coast. St Agnes, the better-known village along the coast, has its own stretches of sand and cliff scenery well worth discovering.
The open-plan living area is filled with natural light from the almost full-width windows, with patio doors opening directly onto the large balcony and its views across the bay. A double sofa bed provides additional sleeping space, with a widescreen TV also in the living area. The dining area, with a table and four chairs, sits alongside the kitchen, which is fully equipped for preparing meals. A utility cupboard in the hallway houses the washer/dryer. Beyond the living spaces, the bedroom features a king-size bed and a wardrobe, with two floor-to-ceiling windows that frame views of the sea and a patio door leading out to the balcony. The bathroom, situated next to the bedroom, has a shower over the bath, a WC, and a heated towel rail. An iron, ironing board, hairdryer, and a good selection of books and games are also provided for guests throughout the apartment.
The large balcony stretches across the front of the apartment, with an uninterrupted view over Porthtowan Beach and the bay beyond – accessible from both the living area and the bedroom. A secure surf store is available for boards and beach toys. The apartment is reached via 63 steps from the car park. Designated off-road parking is provided for one car.
