Meridian5 Luxury Holiday Apartment, No5 @ Port Pendennis Marina

 

 Sitting right at the heart of the Port Pendennis Marina development in arguably the best part of Falmouth, Meridian5, is a two bedroom apartment, newly refreshed for the 2022 season. It enjoys stunning views and an enviable position adjacent to Discovery Quay and Events Square. The town centre is within a 5 minute walk and has something for everyone, with its relaxed vibe and mix of individual cafes, shops, pubs and restaurants.


 Meridian5 has contemporary décor in a cool, grey and white palette and is equipped for up to two guests to enjoy a comfortable retreat after exploring one of Cornwall’s most exciting harbour towns. Designed by Peter de Savary and modelled on the picture-perfect beauty spot of Port Grimaud near St Tropez, Port Pendennis offers a very attractive setting close to the harbour, but in a gated development with manicured gardens. Pastel painted townhouses huddled around the bobbing boats of the inner yacht basin create an idyllic backdrop and a lovely outlook from the apartment. Enjoying a drink while watching the sun go down (or an early morning coffee) on one of the two balconies is a great way to unwind.

Guests enter Meridian5 through a light and bright hallway which leads into the heart of the apartment. The surrounding white walls and grey and white tiled floor create an extremely contemporary and clean space and already set the scene for a tranquil escape by the coast. To the left of the hallway is the main seating area, complete with a large L-shaped white leather sofa with lots of cushions, providing plenty of room for everyone to curl up and relax at the end of the day. The wooden flooring throughout this room adds warmth and texture while the wonderful, nautical artwork is a subtle reminder of the stunning location of this apartment. There is a wall mounted electric fire as well as central heating so there is always a cosy feel here. Meridian5 is also well equipped with TVs throughout so guests could either watch separately or gather together to watch a movie on the Smart 4k TV.

If the evening sun is still proving too tempting, then guests could throw open the balcony doors and soak in the stunning views overlooking Port Pendennis, or the docks and views towards Flushing from the other balcony in Bedroom 2. 
The dining area is also a very attractive, sunlit space, with views over the marina. It is furnished with a beautiful chrome and glass dining table and modern blue chairs. The deep blue tones of the soft furnishings make the space feel inviting and the area is open plan, leading into the well-equipped kitchen.

The kitchen can be accessed both from the hallway and through double doors from the sitting room. When the double doors are open it becomes one lovely airy open plan space. If they are closed it becomes a series of smaller, cosy spaces, perfect for evening time. The kitchen area is a bright and modern space, with pale grey cupboard doors and light grey granite worktops. There is a double oven and an induction hob, refrigerator and freezer, microwave, dishwasher and washer/dryer. The breakfast bar cleverly separates the two spaces, but maintains all the social elements needed for a memorable get-together. The cook and/or the barman is never remote from everyone else! 

The main bedroom is at the front of the apartment and is a great size, with a beautiful king size bed and individual bedside tables with touch lamps. Crisp white bed linen is paired with gorgeous grey, velvet cushions and throws, adding a subtle element of luxury to the room. There is ample storage with a large built-in wardrobe, complete with a dressing table and full-length mirror. This bedroom has a generous bay window and window seat, offering a quiet place to sit back and overlook the views of Falmouth Docks or read a book. The white walls, grey and white tiled flooring and soft grey rug provide a tranquil and restful feel. There is also a TV in the bedroom, so guests could escape and relax in front of a good show before settling down for the night.

The second bedroom continues the grey and white palette and features a superking bed, which alternatively may be divided into two full size single beds. It mirrors the contemporary, luxury style of the master bedroom with similar crisp, white bedlinen, grey velvet cushions and throws, a large grey rug and bedside tables with touch lamps. This room has two big windows and a balcony providing views overlooking Falmouth Harbour towards Flushing. This is a wonderful space for guests to escape to and watch the cruise ships arrive and depart from the harbour. Or sit back and relax with a morning coffee, soaking in the sea views. There is also a smart TV with integral DVD player and a large built-in wardrobe in this room, providing guests with ample space. The mirror-fronted doors not only reflect the sea views but bounce the light around the room creating a bright and refreshing space. Both bedrooms are equipped with lit dressing tables with stools and hair dryers with convenient sockets for guests’ hair straighteners, ‘phone chargers etc.  

The family bathroom is another crisp, monochrome space with large white wall tiles and flooring, plenty of storage and a huge mirror. There is a large shower perfect for waking up in, ready to start a day of exploring, or freshening up after a day out. There is also a WC and basin and heated towel rail.

Positioned centrally within Falmouth, Port Pendennis is in a prime location for getting the most out of a Cornish holiday. With the nearest beach just a 6 minute walk away, or the town centre a brief stroll away, this apartment really caters for everyone. Watersports, fishing trips and sailing can be arranged locally and Falmouth also has excellent transport links to neighbouring fishing villages such as Flushing and St. Mawes via passenger ferry. Here guests can escape the hustle and bustle of the town centre and enjoy a relaxing coastal walk. There are also train, bus and ferry connections to Cornwall’s capital city of Truro which has a fabulous cathedral well worth seeing.

Meridian5 is a delightful apartment offering guests a calming, contemporary break and stunning marina and sea views, with all the myriad options Falmouth offers at their doorstep.

History: Meridian5 was operated for a number of years under the name No5 @ Port Pendennis (and No5 at Port Pendennis) and we will uphold the high standards set by the previous owners.  We have changed the colour scheme slightly, updated the tech and configured the second bedroom as a proper twin/double room but the fundamentals remain the same.  

Due to GDPR regulations and on-line security, Meridian5 can only be booked via the excellent "Falmouth Holiday Homes" website.  We look forward to welcoming former No. 5 at Port Pendennis guests in 2022!
