About this property

PRISTINE APARTMENT, 4 MIN WALK TO PRIVATE BEACH, STUNNING SEA VIEWS.

Sea View is a tastefully decorated and beautifully equipped 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom, modern apartment with sea views and access to a private beach 4 minute walk away. Please note that Google Maps and the VRBO website are incorrect in saying it is a 4 minute drive to the beach! It is a perfect base for exploring Cornwall with great transport links and virtually the whole county within a 1 hour drive. It is 15 minutes walk from pubs, cafes and restaurants in picturesque and historic Charlestown. There is easy access to walks, water sports and golf. It is accessible by public transport and about 1 mile from 2 major supermarkets. Despite this, the location is peaceful and rural. It is located in a block with an elevator, enabling easy access for elderly or disabled clients. The apartment is strictly non smoking. It is not suitable for babies and young children because of the balconies and consequent safety concerns. Well behaved older children are welcome however. There is a golf course nearby and National Cycle Routes 2&3 are easily reached.
The Eden Project and the Lost Gardens of Heligan are the most well known of numerous attractions and places to visit within a short drive, or in many cases a bus/train or even a bike ride! This is Poldark country at its' best. Poldark fans will recognise locations from the programme. Many famous novels are set in the area, including works by Daphne du Maurier and Rosamund Pilcher.
Facilities include: parking, garage, Internet, dishwasher, washing machine, microwave, 2 king size beds, or a king size and 2 singles, 2 bathrooms, Smart TV. The main attraction is the location. 3 minute walk to private beach, sea views and rural quiet within easy access of all amenities.

What a great find. This apartment is located in a quiet residential area, with beautiful views of the coast and, as advertised, a lovely private residents beach. The accommodation is immaculate, well looked after and with good quality utensils for all eventualities. Another reason I chose this place was because it is accessible for someone with poor mobility; my wife uses mobility aides and this apartment worked well for us. There is a small step into the walk in shower, but this was manageable for my wife. In the current heatwave we really welcomed the bifold balcony doors, a real bonus. The owner has gone above and beyond with helpful instructions about the apartment and the local area. We thoroughly enjoyed exploring Cornwall from this base, but particularly recommended eating at Edies Kitchen, Carlyon Bay, and The Polgooth Inn, Polgooth, both just a few miles away. Highly recommend this apartment.

Very spacious, clean apartment. Lovely beach. Need to be able bodied to get back up steep slope. We were lucky to have extremely good weather. A couple of fans in the apartment would have been good.

Hi Janet, Thank you for 5 star review. We are glad that you enjoyed your stay. Thanks also for the suggestion regarding fans. Given the warmer summers that we are experiencing, that is a very valid point. We will ensure that there are fans available in future. Jean

Great Location and property exceeded our expectations

Interestingly Rashliegh drive takes after the original owner of Duporth which is now an aesthetically pleasing development of a new village. No 10 was situated on the 1st floor with all mod con's included and a lovely sea view aspect and balconies to sit out and enjoy a coffee and the ambiance. We totally. The enjoyed our stay including the nice touch of powerful binoculars and will be pleased to stay again when next down in St Austell.

The apartment was better than expected, living up to its description fully. It was exceptionally clean, the bedding and towels were very good. The kitchen was appointed with all our needs, with lovely Denby crockery and very nice cutlery. There was more than enough equipment in the kitchen for our stay. I used the master bedroom and was delighted by how large it was, offering a good size shower in the en-suite. It was particularly lovely to be able to sit in the bed in the mornings and look at the sea from the generous windows. The apartment block was very quiet and the lift was useful for getting luggage up and down stairs. The one thing I was slightly disappointed by was the fact that the dryer element of the washing machine was out of order; we had very wet weather during our stay and the dryer would have been useful - but we managed.Communication with our host, Jean, was excellent, and responses were speedy.I would fully recommend this property.

About the host

Hosted by Jean M

Host profile image
I am a nurse married to a doctor and have 2 adult daughters. We have purchased Sea View with a view to using it as a holiday getaway and for relaxation now that we have retired! It is a lovely location and when we are not using the apartment, we are pleased to allow others to enjoy!

Why they chose this property

Sea View really is a lovely apartment in a beautiful location. It is rural and quiet but within easy reach of all amenities even if you do not have a car. We both enjoy the seaside, the countryside, walks and socialising. Sea View ticks all the boxes for us and hopefully for you too

What makes this property unique

All mod cons, private beach access, beautiful location and so accessible for so many things. Holiday homes don't come much better!
