About this property
Within a few minutes walk of the sandy beach at Porthcurno, this cute ground floor apartment is nestled in a valley setting. The apartment is within a detached building of three properties with a shared garden which forms part of a former hotel and has all the ingredients to make a superb holiday bolt-hole for couples. Light and bright with double aspect windows, pale porcelain tiled floor and an all white décor, the contemporary styled accommodation incorporates a living room with a dining area and smart kitchen. The bedroom has a comfortable, relaxing ambiance with a tastefully appointed en-suite shower room - perfect for washing sandy toes after a sunshine filled day by the sea. There is pretty garden which is shared with the other apartments. Potter down to the beach and spend the day lazing by the sea or discover the cliff paths and stunning coastal views in either direction from the cove. Porthcurno is home to the incredible Minack Theatre, carved from the granite cliff-face with dramatic backdrop of sea and sky - a magical site to visit or watch an evening performance. Porthcurno also has a little café and ice cream shop but for eating out we recommend heading to Sennen Cove, Mousehole or Newlyn. Land's End is just over three miles away with its majestic ruggedly natural landscape to be enjoyed in all weathers and cliff paths encompassing the Atlantic Ocean. This property can be booked alongside property references 985427 and 963609 to sleep in total a maximum of 8 people.
The small village of Porthcurno is situated four miles from Lands End on the south coast of West Cornwall. The village has a sandy beach, a café, a restaurant thats open during the summer season and cliff-top and coastal walks. To the west of Porthcurno is the famous Minack Theatre, which is a superb open air venue with 750 seats and boasts views across Porthcurno Bay to The Lizard.
