The Watch House is in an ideal location on the seafront. The apartment is very modern, stylish and well designed. A great deal of thought had been put into choosing pictures etc giving a welcoming Cornish ambiance.Though it’s above a restaurant and a take away no food smells intruded into the property which always felt welcoming and comfortable.
