Right on the beach is Sandbar, a modern and bright restaurant/bar with magnificent views across the ocean. Read more about Sandbar on our blog.

The tradition of Tom Bawcock comes from the feast or famine lifestyle of Cornwall. The story goes that it was just before Christmas; there had been no fish for weeks, the boats couldn’t get out into the raging storm, the village was starving. One man, Tom Bawcock, dared to take his boat out of the harbour’s safety. He returned with enough fish to make fish pie for the whole village.
Today, a festival takes place each year to celebrate Tom Bawcock's bravery. During the festival, Star Gazey pies are eaten in memory of this famous event.

If you want sea views this is the place to go. Great apartment, few minutes walk to beach.
Miss Eley November 2017
The penthouse is a beautifully presented apartment with spectacular views. Close by lots of interesting places to visit and right on the coastal path. We absolutely loved our break in Praa Sands and would definitely come back!
Miss Glossop April 2017
We were very fortunate with good weather. The unspoilt atmosphere of Praa Sands beach, the local coastal walks and advice on good places to eat were really useful. It was always a pleasure coming 'home' to the flat with its comforts and functionality. We would want to come back again.
Mrs Tydeman April 2017
amazing views from every room. Fitted to a high standard and very comfortable. You can go truely to sleep with the sound of the sea. Chill out any time of the year.
Mrs Handley March 2017
It's so rare to find a place where all the main rooms have great sea views. I really thought the pictures online had been edited to make them look better - they hadn't! This would be a lovely place to stay any time of year - you never get tired of the view.
Mr Andrew October 2016
