13 Clock Tower Court

13 Clock Tower Court is a first-floor apartment in Duporth on the outskirts of Charlestown, 500m on foot from Porthpean Beach. The layout is fully wheelchair-accessible throughout, with step-free access from the allocated parking space to the front door and throughout both bedrooms and both bathrooms. Two outdoor seating areas - a balcony off the master bedroom and a second terrace facing the garden and coastline - give the apartment more outside space than most first-floor properties.

Two bedrooms sleep 4: the master has an en-suite shower room and a private balcony, and the second bedroom also has outdoor access. A separate shower room serves the property. A washing machine is included. Charlestown harbour, the 18th-century dock whose preserved tall ships have appeared in over a dozen period dramas including Poldark, is 0.8km from the front door.

This apartment is ideal for two couples travelling together who want independent bedroom space, or for a family that requires level-access accommodation on Cornwall's south coast. It is less good for guests with dogs, as the property is not dog-friendly. The lack of a dishwasher is worth noting for stays of a week or more with four guests.

Carlyon Bay Beach is 1.7km, and the Eden Project - the pair of giant geodesic biome domes built into a disused china clay pit - is approximately 8 miles north at Bodelva. St Austell town centre with its rail connections to Plymouth and Penzance is under 2 miles. From £940 per week with Friday changeover and a 5-star rating from 6 Sykes reviews.
