Sweet Nightingale

Perched on the cliff above Lusty Glaze Beach, this home has been designed to make the most of its privileged position, with stunning views of the deep blue rolling Atlantic waves courtesy of vast picture windows – perfect for a Cornish coastal getaway. Inside, the sleek contemporary kitchen looks out over the large back lawn, with a patio area and barbecue for rustling up alfresco feasts in the sunshine and a playhouse for the children. Head through to the conservatory, with its generous dining table and sofa seating, plus it offers direct access to the garden. Alternatively, take in spectacular summer sunsets from the west-facing front garden after a day in the ocean. Upstairs, you'll find three comfortable bedrooms, with awe-inspiring views available from the en-suite master bedroom. To top it all off, there are four beaches within walking distance, so you can select a different stretch of sand daily if you like to change it up or settle in your favourite spot if you're a creature of habit. If all that fresh air has sapped your energy, then there's standout food and thirst-quenching drinks flowing in Newquay's bars and restaurants, just a fifteen-minute walk away.
