Mermaid Gaze is the perfect coastal retreat for families or couples
Mermaid Gaze is the perfect coastal retreat for families or couples seeking a mix of relaxation and seaside adventure. Located in the heart of Newquay on the Cornish coast, this stylish apartment promises an unforgettable stay, just a three-minute walk from the sandy expanse of Porth Beach. Whether you're building sandcastles with the children, surfing the waves, or simply soaking up the sun, you'll find plenty of ways to unwind by the sea.
This apartment is spread across the ground floor, with an open-plan kitchen, lounge, and conservatory. The conservatory is a fantastic spot for dining, with sliding patio doors that open directly into the garden, allowing you to enjoy the outdoors while you eat. The kitchen is sleek and fully equipped, featuring a large island with two bar stools for casual dining, while the lounge area, complete with black leather seating, offers a stylish and comfortable space to relax. There are two well-appointed bedrooms in the apartment. The first features two single beds that can be joined together to create a super king, as well as built-in wardrobes, a chest of drawers, and a hairdryer. From the window, you can enjoy views of the beach and sea. The second bedroom has a king-size double bed, built-in wardrobes, and a chest of drawers, with sliding patio doors leading directly onto the garden terrace. The family bathroom includes a large walk-in shower, a WC, a washbasin, a large mirror, a heated towel rail, and convenient shelving.
Outside, the large garden is an inviting space to gather with family or friends, offering stunning beach views and plenty of outdoor furniture to relax and enjoy the surroundings. The hot tub is a particularly special feature, offering a luxurious way to unwind after a day at the beach. An outdoor shower with both hot and cold water is available, making it easy to rinse off surfboards and wetsuits after a day of water sports. Parking is straightforward, with one designated car space and additional on-road parking nearby.
The location of Mermaid Gaze couldn't be better. Porth Beach and the stunning Porth Island are just moments away, and the Mermaid Inn pub is just a few metres from the apartment, offering great food, local cider, and a lively atmosphere. For those who enjoy exploring, the South West Coast Path offers spectacular walking opportunities in either direction, leading you to the vibrant town of Newquay to the west or the more relaxed Watergate Bay to the east. In Newquay, you'll find a bustling town centre with shops, restaurants, and bars, as well as several beautiful beaches. Watergate Bay offers a more laid-back vibe, with a large beach and the excellent Wax café just a short stroll from the sand. For those wishing to explore even further, the Atlantic Coaster bus stops just 50 metres from the apartment, providing scenic rides along the coast, from Newquay to Padstow.
Mermaid Gaze is the ideal base for those looking to experience the best of Cornwall – a stylish, spacious, and modern retreat close to the beach and with easy access to both peaceful coastal walks and the vibrant town of Newquay. Whether you're looking for relaxation, outdoor adventures, or a combination of both, this apartment offers the perfect balance of coastal living and comfort.
