Perched above Watergate Bay, this apartment is all about the sea views. Beach days here are a breeze – just step out the front door, and you'll be on the sand in less than five minutes. If you're in town for excellent surfing, you'll find handy surf storage in the basement. Of course, the panoramas are what really steal the show here – and the balcony offers the perfect vantage point to watch the sunset with a glass of wine. The interiors are comfortable and pared-back, but well-suited to families. We think it's a great option if you want to be moments from the coast.

There's a cellar in the building's basement where you can store a surfboard and other equipment.

About Cornwall
Believed to be the birthplace of King Arthur, the ancient kingdom of Cornwall (or Kernow as it's known to locals) is a magical place of myths and legends. It is also bestowed with some of the most beautiful beaches in the southwest, if not the country. We're talking Porthcurno Beach with its Caribbean like waters, the hidden oasis of Whitsand Bay and the pristine white shores of Kynance Cove, a...
