Lovely 1 bed flat in Victorian house 300m seafront

A ground-floor one-bedroom flat inside a converted Victorian house on Alexandra Road in Penzance, roughly 300 metres from the seafront. The building's period character comes through in the architecture, while the flat itself has been updated with modern fittings. Dogs are welcome, and the property holds a 9.1 rating from 80 guest reviews - with cleanliness scoring 9.7.

The flat has its own private entrance, a fully equipped kitchen, washing machine, free Wi-Fi, and streaming services. A garden and terrace with outdoor dining furniture sit at the rear. The space suits couples or solo travellers looking for a compact base with a short walk to the promenade.

Penzance Promenade Beach is a 4-minute walk away, putting Jubilee Pool - the UK's largest seawater lido at 300 feet long - within easy reach on foot. The seafront promenade stretches along Mount's Bay with views toward St Michael's Mount, which is 4.3 miles east at Marazion. Free parking is provided on site.
