Situated along the coveted Cornish coast, a mile away from the vibrant St Austell town centre, this haven offers a strategic location that bridges the tranquillity of the nearby private beach and the conveniences of urban life with the scenic beauty of the Roseland Peninsular, just a short car ride away.
Perfectly positioned between Charlestown and Porthpean, the Beach Retreat presents a gateway to coastal and woodland explorations. The enchanting Charlestown Harbour, a UNESCO world heritage site, which contains numerous grade II listed buildings, a deep-water harbour, the shipwreck museum, art galleries, local shops and more just a stone’s throw away, invites you to indulge in a plethora of bars, restaurants, and cafés. Enjoy a stroll around the delightful 18th-century Georgian harbour steeped in history making you feel like you have travelled back in time with its classic Tall Ships and beautiful beaches.

Spacious, clean, comfortable, everything we could have wanted! Scones and Hamper were a really nice touch and early access to the property was very much appreciated. Best property we’ve stayed in.

Perfect for a base and has all you need for a great stay.
Perfect for a base and has all you need for a great stay. My only criticism is that the mattress was way to soft for us and maybe could be for other people.

This was a lovely apartment.
This was a lovely apartment. A bit tricky to find, because the address isn't directly visible from the street, but other than that, it was great. Quiet, clean, comfortable and well-stocked. The five minute walk to the private beach was a real treat, and there's a massive ASDA only fifteen minutes' walk away. Really great for a working holiday.

Overall very good.
Overall very good. Bed a little soft for our tastes. Walk to Charlestown very manageable but walk to (from) private beach would be little more challenging for some. Enjoyed our stay.
