The property

Settled within a desirable apartment building, in the heart of the popular seaside resort of Penzance, Cornwall, rests this first-floor holiday home, 2 Bed Tower.

This listed accommodation was built in 1834 and is the town's most historic building, yet it enjoys a contemporary interior, ideal for families and friends.

Offering stunning far reaching sea views over Mounts Bay and St Michaels Mount and within easy reach of exciting attractions, 2 Bell Tower makes a memorable getaway.

Climb the quirky spiral staircase to access this lovely abode on the first floor, dusting off your sandy toes as you step over the threshold to begin your staycation.

Upon entry, be charmed by the contemporary décor of the open-plan living space, sure to be the heart of the home, where you can look forward to entertaining your guests with a game of cards at the dining table or enjoying a family-favourite with a seat in front of the Smart TV.

About the location

PENZANCE

St Ives 8 miles. Helicopter to Isles of Scilly - 30 minutes

Penzance hosts Golowan, the Midsummer Carnival, and The Literary Festival. There are also The Exchange, Newlyn and Penlee Art Galleries. One of Cornwall’s most popular holiday areas is the spectacular sweep of Mount’s Bay, from the cliffside fishing village of Mousehole through Penzance and around to beautiful Marazion, the coastline hides a wealth of sandy beaches, rocky coves as well as winding village streets and other places to visit and explore. Connected by a causeway to the shore at Marazion is the National Trust’s stunningly beautiful St Michael’s Mount with its hilltop castle and Mediterranean gardens. Walk across at low water and take one of the ferry boats back when the tide is up. Penzance with its winding streets, shops, clubs, restaurants and harbour is a must as it is the jumping-off point for day trips to the Isles of Scilly as well as being the harbor. The South West Coast Path passing through Penzance winds its way along the clifftops towards Land’s End. On the way, stop off for a coffee and a rest at beautiful Lamorna Cove, explore the open air Minack Theatre and marvel at the cliffs as you approach Gwennap Head. A stunning walk for those seeking solitude, exercise and some of the UK’s best coastal scenery. Penzance is the perfect holiday base. Ideally placed for exploring this land of Celtic myth and legend and with enough to do and see in the immediate area to keep all the family occupied.
