With beautiful views over Watergate Bay, this apartment is the perfect place for a small family or couple of friends to escape to the seaside. Located just four hundred metres from the beach, you get the best of both worlds staying here – enjoy wonderful vistas and waterfront access without any of the crowds. When you're not hanging out on the balcony – the perfect spot to sip bubbly and watch the ocean waves – head inside to the bright open-plan living area. Sleek, modern and welcoming, this all-in-one space invites guests to spend some quality time together, whether that's sharing a delicious homecooked meal, curling up by the fire or watching a movie on the Bluray player. We love all the mod-cons, too – including underfloor heating, a wine fridge and rainfall showers in the bathrooms. There's also communal gardens and a shared barbecue area for sunny summer evenings. Surfers will be delighted to hear there's surfboard storage and an outdoor shower, but those less keen on conquering the waves can just stroll along the coastal path or grab a bite to eat at one of the restaurants along the water. Or spend the day exploring the surrounding area... – Watergate Bay is nestled between Padstow and Newquay, so there are excellent options for an afternoon out and about.
