Glendorgal Sands - Superb sea views, access to Beach, wonderful inside and out
About this condo rental
Amazing sea views, Direct access to the beach, Balcony & terrace with sea views, Very high standard of accommodation. There is an on site bar & restaurant, Quiet location yet not too far away from bright lights This duplex apartment shares 17 acres of grounds of the Glendorgal resort. Situated above Porth & Lusty Glaze beaches it has all of the above and more!!! The apartments at Glendorgal are right on the edge of the headland with superb views out over Porth Bay and Beach. This property listing is for apartment number 3. Glendorgal Sands has three bedrooms and sleeps 5 people in real comfort and style. The massive master bedroom has its own balcony giving fantastic uninterrupted views over Porth bay and the headland beyond. It is so big it almost acts as a second living room. Watch one of our DVDs or turn on the Playstation. The lounge is beautifully furnished with top quality leather sofas, Sky TV, state of the art 50' widrescreen TV & HD DVD player The delightful kitchen has integrated appliances and hand-built solid oak cabinets. If you don't fancy cooking inside, just fire up the BBQ with its stunning views. 'Number 3' has Oak flooring downstairs, combined with extra comfortable leather lounge furniture. There is a multi-channel LCD TV with DVD player and a hard drive music player. Downstairs there is also a single bedroom and shower room. Upstairs there is a double bedroom with en-suite shower room. Also upstairs is the enormous master bedroom with en-suite shower room. In addition to a king size bed, there is a sofa, chair and the entertainment system. The balcony, though small has one of the best views in North Cornwall. The apartment benefits from fast fibre broadband enabling live as well as streamed content from connected devices to the 3D 50' smart TV There is a good sized patio with superb views over Porth beach and beyond to Watergate bay. There is also a gas BBQ (April to Sept) There is direct access to the beach. When the tide is out, it is just a few (steepish) steps. If the tide is in (great if you want to surf Lusty Glaze as you are half way to the breakers) it is a short walk away. You can also reach the great restaurant and activity centre at the surf beach at Lusty Glaze in a couple of minutes. The surf action doesn't stop when the sun goes down, watch classic surfing action on DVD with our own collection. 'Riding with Giants' and 'Endless Summer 2' are rightly regarded as classics of the genre. John Milius' 'Big Wednesday' is probably the best fictional surf film ever. For those looking for light entertainment just watch Keanu Reeves & Patrick Swayze in the original 'Point Break' The Watermark Brasserie is reasonably priced and good (open for breakfast, lunch and dinner) with great views. During peak seasons and all school holidays (Christmas and New year excepted), this property will have a Friday changeover. Although it may appear that Saturday is free, this is solely due to weaknesses in the availability system on this web site. Our apologies for this.

Awesome view. Walk to beaches. House has everything you could need. Comfy bed. Fabulous patio. A few steps to get to the house and steps inside, but no problem if your mobility is ok.

What a lovely apartment,everything you could need is catered for.
Had a bit of trouble finding the property but neighbours help us out.
My elderly Mum had a struggle getting up and down the outside steps. As for myself there was nothing that would stop me returning. The views are outstanding.Would really recommend.

Bad points:
Very uncomfortable soft, lumpy beds;
Bath is "out of use";
Wi fi doesn't reach upstairs;
Pool unusably cold and in a horrible room;
Due to a series of mishaps (anyone who has had a 1 year old and a 3 year old in tow on a holiday will understand this) led to us not replacing the key into the key box and locking ourselves out. After politely and apologetically explaining this to the owner we asked if we could possibly travel and collect a spare from her which we said we would return. The owner saw this as an opportunity to deliver a scathing, long lecture to my husband during a call and then to me in another call; then to profit from the situation by requiring us to pay £40 for the cleaner to deliver a replacement which came 20 minutes later. Don't expect any compassion if you require any assistance from your host on this holiday.
Good points are the views and the great location.. So much so that we have already booked to stay in one of the neighbouring properties next year of which there are plenty.

Just had a great week. Property was great for our family, making use of the beach at the end of most days out. Fantastic to see the sea and cliffs at the start and end of each day. Thanks!

Best rental we have ever stayed in
This is a really nice 2 story apartment. Beautiful inside and out. But what really makes it are the views. Just outstanding. We have never come across anything like it. Situated just feet from the sea, the view changes constantly with the tides and weather. Added bonus is a decent sized indoor pool on the grounds.

Absolutely stunning views, everything in walking distance or short car ride if you prefer. Beaches everywhere. Watching the Sunset is a must. Home from home. Brilliant.

Our apartment at Glendorgal Sands was perfect for us! We are three mature active seniors who needed 3 separate bedrooms with our own shower/ bath. This apartment fitted our bill really well and the view from the decking was fantastic! (The only glitch we had was the patio door which could be tricky to open, but the owners sorted it for us quickly.) If you choose to book this apartment I am sure you won’t be disappointed.
It might be worth mentioning that the path down from the car park could really do with a hand rail, as when wet it could be quite slippery.

Fabulous week away. Large apartment for 5 people, very well equipped and furnished. Marvellous views from nearly every room. Direct access to the beach and we could also use the indoor pool at the hotel. We will definitely return

Too good to leave
This is our third visit &I would just like to express what a fantastic place you have to stay in, we really enjoyed our break and in fact it's the first time we have not actually done any travelling, the apartment was just that good that we didn't want to go anywhere.

Stunning view But!!!!
If you are wanting views it's lovely However the attention to detail fails the place in many ways! The master bedroom is the only bedroom wth a double bed and where you can actually open the sliding door to get some fresh air in! The other two bedrooms which are single beds you can not even open the windows! The thermostat cannot be regulated leaving you very warm when sleeping in other bedrooms. Attention to details fails in many places. There is no cabinet space allowance in kitchen for your own staple goods you might wish to bring along. The sliding door in lounge is very difficult to open let alone lock because of the weathered exterior. The reserved parking was a bit of a joke, as the tradesman took most of the spots and your car is a walk from unit. The stairs and pathway to acces the unit are wood,so when wet they are dangerous as remarked in visitors book!
The wifi access code has changed and it took a day to figure what was going on!
The television is good if you are there to sit and want to watch!
The dishwasher the first time was used we had to unblock it! There also was no,soap,in dispensers as most rental places would supply. Bedding and towels were good.
As for the hotel it is old and tired looking, never used the pool.
Overall the unit was clean but worn and needing some updating!

Just stunning
Can't praise this too highly. Views are absolutely awesome. It is warm, beautifully furnished & very well equipped. We have stayed at another of their properties last year & enjoyed that, but this was just a step up.

A lovely cottage in a stunning location
The location of the cottage is superb. Surfing beaches were a short drive away and there were lovely walks close by.
The facilities met our needs. It was comfortable and there was plenty of space for the five of us to live together harmoniously!
The master bedroom is gorgeous with wonderful views to the sea. It was great to have the patio area, which, also faced the sea and we used the BBQ on a number of occasions.
We, mostly, cooked for ourselves and found good shopping provision close by.
My son appreciated the gym facilities.
My only criticism is the safety of the site, itself. We arrived after dark and found the site poorly lit and difficult to negotiate from the car park to the cottage. The decking steps down to the cottage are lethal in the wet and I had a fall which resulted in the need for treatment to my back. I would love to return for another stay but I would need assurance that this matter had been dealt with.
Overall, a lovely cottage in a beautiful and peaceful setting.

Best family holiday!
I stayed at Glendorgal with my baby girl, husband, brother and parents and it was not in one bit crowded. The home itself was spacious, clean, well equipped & beautiful. The views were breathtaking! Despite it being mid September we were able to do surfing, jet skiing & visit the zoo! There's so much to do!!
We've already put the dates in our diaries to return next year and are hoping to make this a regular stay!

Wonderful views, great place to stay.Went Feb half term & although the area was very quiet, we really enjoyed ourselves. Views are unbelievable. Apartment warm and cosy (gas central heating) and very well furnished. Free wifi was very reliable & absolutely essential.
