4 Glendorgal Sands

A 3-bedroom duplex apartment in the Glendorgal estate near Newquay, sleeping 5 across two floors with 3 bathrooms. The estate sits on the clifftop above Porth Beach, 700 metres from Whipsiderry Beach - a sheltered cove reached by steps cut into the cliff.

The apartment is spread over two floors. Both upper bedrooms have en-suites; the larger of the two opens onto a sea-facing balcony with views across Porth Beach and the Atlantic. A sun-deck off the living room catches the evening light. There is no dishwasher or washing machine, but WiFi and parking are included and the 15-gallery image set suggests strong fit-out throughout.

Tolcarne Beach is 900 metres away and Great Western Beach around 1.3km. Fistral - Newquay's main surf beach and venue for the annual Boardmasters festival - is roughly 10 minutes by car. Watergate Bay, with the Extreme Academy watersports centre, lies north up the coast. The town centre, with restaurants, cafes and the harbour, is a 15-minute drive.

Best for couples or a small family who want sea views and beach access without being in the thick of Newquay's resort centre. Less good for guests wanting to walk everywhere - a car is useful here.
