Apartments in Cornwall
We have selected apartments here across a wide area of Cornwall so that you are covered wherever you would like to stay in our beautiful County. In true Cornish style, most of these apartments are seriously close to a beach with sea views, but also give you the best of our countryside too. Your holiday experience is important to us so we have picked the best places for hospitality, experience, and of course location. An apartment is a great way to go if you want that extra private space as well as the choice of catering for yourselves for those cosy nights in or to keep the cost down. Also, every one of our recommended apartments has a washer and dryer which really will be a great addition to your trip, particularly with kids and beach days.
Cornwall’s holiday apartments range from clifftop penthouses overlooking Fistral Beach to harbour-view flats in historic fishing towns. An apartment gives you the independence of self-catering with less upkeep than a full cottage — ideal for couples or small families who want a base for exploring.
Why choose an apartment
- Value: Apartments are often more affordable per night than hotels, especially for stays of a week or more
- Space: A separate living area and kitchen means you’re not confined to a single room
- Location: Many Cornwall apartments sit in prime coastal positions with sea views that hotels at the same price point can’t match
- Flexibility: Cook when you want, eat out when you want — no breakfast schedules to work around
What to look for
Every apartment in this guide includes a washer and dryer (essential for beach holidays with children), free WiFi, and free parking. Most have private entrances and outdoor space — a balcony, terrace, or patio — so you can enjoy the Cornish air without leaving home.
