Coastal eco-home for up to 6, short walk from Porthtowan village and beach
Our beautiful holiday lodge sits at the highest point of the Towan Valley resort, tucked away in a quiet corner. It has a rear terrace, front veranda and a first floor balcony that offer privacy and enable you to be in the sun all day long, or in the shade if it gets too hot. The communal garden to the front is great for children to play and meet others staying in neighbouring properties. The large paved terrace at the rear is a private and sheltered space ideal for sunbathing and relaxing on the large corner sofa.
Porthtowan's famous sand and surf beach is just a short walk away, while village amenities include a small grocery store, children's playground, surf hire and tuition and numerous cafes and pub / restaurants including the famous Blue Bar and newly refurbished Unicorn On The Beach.
NEW for 2023!
Refurbished bathrooms with integrated WC and basin units, real wood flooring to the ground floor and best of all, an air source heat pump providing warm air to the whole house during the chillier days of spring and autumn. It also provides air conditioning on those hot summer days!
The high speed fibre internet service keeps you in touch with the rest of the world at all times, and provides up to date local information and guides covering the whole of Cornwall.
The ground floor of the house is very spacious and light with three glazed doors and side windows. The lounge area has two comfortable leather sofas, coffee tables, a 49 in. Smart TV and a wide choice of reading material, games etc. The dining area has a large and sturdy oak dining set to seat 8, plus a further table for study, card games etc. The kitchen is separate and also large and well-equipped with a view to the rear and back terrace. There is also a WC on the ground floor.
The rear of the house is open right up to the roof with huge windows which greet the morning sun. A painted wood staircase leads to the first floor.
The main bedroom is also very spacious and has a delightful balcony which gets the sun for most of the day and has a lovely view over the rooftops to the surrounding countryside and down to the sea. This room has a superking size bed, plenty of drawers and a hanging rail plus a good sized en-suite shower room. Two more bedrooms offer a king size double bed and twin beds , both with storage space and hanging rails. The shared family bathroom has a full size bath with thermostatic shower mixer, plus wash basin and WC.
There is an allocated parking space about 50 metres walk from the entrance door. Please note the access path is on a slope and includes some steps so is probably not suitable for anyone with limited mobility that wants to come and go frequently.
