Direct Beach Access! Top Floor Apartment Perranporth

Top-floor apartment in Perranporth with direct access onto the beach and sea views from the upper rooms. Sleeps seven across four bedrooms and one bathroom - a queen, two twin rooms, a further twin, and a sofa bed cover the numbers. The beach runs three miles with Britain's highest sand dunes, reached without crossing a road.

A wood burner heats the living room, and a garden gives space beyond the building. Dogs are welcome, and WiFi, private parking, a dishwasher and washing machine are all included free. Stairs inside the apartment lead up to the living areas - worth flagging for guests with mobility needs. Guests rate it 9.7 out of 10 across 26 reviews.

Perranporth beach is a short walk from the building, with the South West Coast Path running past the door and the Wateringhole bar serving drinks right on the sand. The town centre has pubs, a Co-op and independent shops within walking distance, plus a golf course and regular surf and kitesurf conditions. Newquay is a 20-minute drive, Truro 15 minutes, and Newquay Cornwall Airport around 30 minutes.

Best for surfers and dog owners wanting beach access without a car. Less good for guests who need step-free access to the living space, given the internal stairs.
