This contemporary first-floor apartment is situated in a select development near the historic harbour village of Charlestown, just ten minutes' walk to a gated beach. Ideally located for a beach holiday and also touring the south coast of Cornwall, this is a lovely apartment for a small family. After parking in your reserved space, you enter the apartment via a lift to the first floor where along the hallway you will find two bedrooms, one of which benefits from an en-suite shower room, along with a family bathroom. The double room also has a balcony, ideal for an early morning cup of coffee. The spacious open plan living area has comfortable sitting and dining areas as well as the well-equipped kitchen, plus there is also a patio accessed from the sitting area. From the apartment it is a delightful short stroll to the beach. Walk through the communal gardens down to the gated entrance for which you are supplied with a code. After a day spent relaxing on the beach, take the short walk into Charlestown which boasts a superb choice of pubs, bistros and restaurants where a wonderful time can be had. Stroll past the famous tall ships which are often moored up and sit on the harbour wall as you gaze out across the sea; a wonderful way to spend a memorable evening. This apartment is an excellent base for discovering many of the leading tourist attractions in the area such as St. Austell, one of the largest towns in Cornwall, as well as the Eden Project and the Lost Gardens of Heligan, which are both short drives away. With such a good location for discovering the Cornish coast, this apartment provides a most comfortable base for a holiday or short break at any time of year.
Charlestown is a delightful and much sought-after coastal village of stone cottages and Regency houses, on the south coast near St. Austell. Famous for its collection of tall ships riding at anchor in the harbour, the shipwreck museum, excellent pubs and restaurants and easy access to the coastal path, it's the perfect holiday destination.

The apartment has plenty of space and the kitchen/ lounge area was bright and comfortable . Overall the apartment was clean and well maintained but big cobwebs on the ceilings and tops of furniture and units were definitely not done for a while.I think that was mentioned in a recent review in February, alas if I had read it sooner I would have realised the washing machine wasnât working. I did send a text asking how to switch it on but didnât get a response, but then when I saw that review and didnât try again also as we didnât require the DVD player I canât say if that was working or not. Regarding the other reviews we didnât cook much but the kitchen had the basics to cook with, letâs say you might not be able to bake a cake but you can certainly put a roast dinner together if needed. Personal choice, but again reading earlier reviews about the double bed being soft etc. We would agree it was way too soft to be considered comfortable as we are used to a very firm bed but this is again is our personal choice.

It was mostly clean, but there was a lot of dust under the furniture and some cobwebs on the ceiling. The key code was late coming through, but after prompting, it was texted before we arrived at the apartment. It was tricky trying to work out how to set the heating initially, but we managed to work it out. However, we couldn't get the DVD player to work or the washing machine which was completely dead. We texted the owner, but got no response. The kitchen wasn't particularly well kitted out, so we avoided cooking most of the time sadly. We have stayed in better equipped holiday homes in Cornwall.
