Sitting directly opposite Gyllyngvase Beach, this apartment puts sand, watersports, and a public beach sauna right outside your door. The south-west facing balcony is where you'll spend your evenings – sun loungers, an outdoor dining table, and a bay view that catches the last of the light. Inside, natural light fills the living and dining area, and the bedroom opens onto that same balcony with glimpses of the ocean beyond. Lift access and a supermarket within the development keep things effortlessly easy – whether you're staying a weekend or a week.

Home truths
You're well placed to explore without a car – the beach and town are both within easy reach on foot, and local buses, trains and ferries are available for exploring further afield. If you do bring a car, there's free parking for one car on the driveway.
If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a travel cot and high chair during your stay – worth requesting in advance to make sure everything is set up on arrival.
This home is located within an apartment building, with a shared entrance. Expect to bump into other guests during your stay.
The building's fire alarm is tested every Tuesday at midday and may sound for up to three minutes – worth knowing if you're planning a quiet morning.
