Comfortable, Convenient & Chic
Comfortable luxury apartment with the added bonus of a parking space right outside. Convenient for the beach and St Ives and to just drive out and explore. Chic design with a real flair for decor. Helen was excellent at responding, despite being abroad she still called us straight away which we really appreciated. We would definitely choose to stay here again. We found one of the beds much more comfortable but it is a personal choice of how soft you like a bed and we are extremely fussy so it’s a big plus that we were happy and sleeping so well.

Amazing location for the beach, lovely property with excellent facilities. The check in process was very smooth and hassle free. This was our first time to St Ives and have to say the property facilities and location were just perfect. Clean, well furnished and comfortable. The views were amazing too. Helen, our property manager was very friendly and responsive to make our stay a good one. Restaurants and supermarkets within easy reach. We will be back.

Beautiful views and great location
Overall we had a lovely time! The place was very clean, with beautiful views over Porthminster beach and only a short walk into town. The space and facilities were perfect for our needs. Would definitely recommend. Suggestions for improvement: we expected some small shampoos, conditioners and body wash in the bathrooms and a hair dryer! There was also only one toilet roll in each bathroom for 6 days and no other paper products (kitchen roll/napkins). The wifi codes were also out of date in the guest book!

Luxurious!
An extremely comfortable and well equipped, very large, apartment. More a floor of a highly modernised old building really. Nice views across as the road and down to the beach. A few minutes stroll to the harbour area with shops. A shorter stroll down to the very nice beach with the great attraction of the Porthminster Beach Cafe, very high quality chef.food and with a wonderful view.

Wonderful stay in an amazing apartment
We were absolutely blown away with this apartment during our stay. It was well equipped with everything we needed and furnished to a very high standard. The apartment was also a stones throw away from the beach which made it so much easier to go back and forth as we pleased. It was ideally located and only a short walk to the centre and to the Harbour. The parking was also fantastic and a huge benefit. Parking can be difficult in St Ives, particularly during peak season, so it was so nice, not to have to worry about this. An absolutely fantastic apartment, which we hope to return to soon.

Wonderful base to explore St Ives and Cornwall
We have just come back from a fantastic stay here. The place is every bit as good as the photos suggest it is. Spotlessly clean on arrival, lots of space and the view over Porthminster beach is fantastic (especially at sunrise). The parking space is right outside the front door which was really handy (a rarity in St Ives!). Being at the top of town meant we never got stuck in traffic in the centre nor the very narrow streets - if you have been to St Ives you will know what a benefit this is! Porthminster beach is only 5-10 minutes walk away (with a young child in tow!) as is the train station if you want to venture further afield. The town is also only 5-10 minutes away with dozens of great restaurants but booking ahead is essential. Everywhere we went was completely family friendly and our 7 year old had a wonderful time as did we. We spent a lot of time on the beach and in the apartment but I'd recommend getting the open top bus to Land's End (Land's End Coaster) as well as a 20 minute drive to St Michael's Mount. Both the host (Helen) and housekeeper (Claire) were super friendly and really quick to respond whenever we needed to speak to them. I would thoroughly recommend the accommodation and St Ives for a family holiday or a couple and we hope to go back soon.

Excellent location and very comfortable apartment for a family
It’s even better then you can see on the photos of the property. Short walk to the beach - just 3-5 minutes. Excellent condition of the modern style apartment. Beautiful view on the sea and beach from the big windows. Not just view. You can sit and relax during whole day in front of this view. Very helpful host. We didn’t use because we came by train but good and convenient reasonable size parking space just in front of the house. Train is a good option because it’s just 3 minutes walk from the train station Will be definitely back
