St Ives is the ideal spot for a holiday at any time of year. Watch as local fishermen land their catch in the idyllic harbour, visit the iconic Tate St Ives art gallery, explore a maze of cobbled streets or stroll along glorious sands… there really is something for everyone here. Especially popular with walkers, surfers and swimmers, Porthmeor is a safe, sandy beach with, at one end, a beautiful headland known as The Island; follow the South West Coast Path around it for spectacular sea views, stopping en route at ancient St Nicholas’ Chapel. If you prefer to sightsee further afield, drive the coast road 20 miles south-west to Land’s End, or head 10 miles south to Newlyn, home of the famous Newlyn School of Art and one of the UK’s largest fishing fleets. From here it’s just 3 miles to lively Penzance or 8 miles to Marazion and the romantic St Michael’s Mount.
Convenient for the coastal path and Porthmeor Beach, this cheerful holiday apartment is located in a quiet residential area on the edge of town and enjoys some stunning sea and sunset views. Step down into a welcoming kitchen/diner which has all the essentials you’d expect for a fuss-free stay, while the nearby lounge has seating for four, a log effect electric fire and a Smart TV. There’s another TV plus a lovely bay window allowing lots of light into – and sea views from – the king-size bedroom. Additionally, full-size twin beds in the second bedroom mean two adult couples or a small family could holiday here comfortably. A stylish shower room completes the convenience.
A prettily planted patio area with outdoor furniture offers somewhere to sit and watch the sun go down, while for more outdoor space there’s a park and playing field within 200 metres of the property.
