Harbour Sands is centrally positioned above a fish and chip restaurant on the St Ives waterfront. The views are outstanding and there are multiple sandy beaches within 15 meters as well as plenty of eateries, boutiques, and bars to enjoy. St Ives has something for everyone, including the Tate Gallery and the home of sculptor Barbara Hepworth, complete with its own sculpture garden where art lovers can enjoy the artist’s work in its own surroundings. Further afield, take a trip to the stunning Minack Theatre (18 miles), an open-air, seaside amphitheatre that hosts a full programme of plays during the spring and summer seasons. Alternatively, head to Porthcurno, Land’s End or St Michael’s Mount in Marazion, all less than 20 miles away. Visit the fishing harbour of Newlyn (10 miles) or stroll along the South West Coast Path.

From a shared service access road you enter Harbour Sands via a communal entrance, head up a flight of stairs into this stylish, light apartment with commanding views across the harbour. The breath-taking views can be soaked up from the huge cushioned window seat. See people watching and marvelling at the skills of the RNLI crew as they launch the St Ives Lifeboat directly outside the apartment on one of their regular training manoeuvres. Whatever is going on you will always have the best seats in town. If you can take your eyes away from that view, cosy up on the comfy sofa to watch the Smart TV, or gather round the dining table for a sumptuous meal. The kitchen is equipped with everything you'll need for your holiday whether it's a picnic for a day out or a family meal one evening. The bedrooms are to the rear of the property and are beautifully presented. There is a king-size bedroom and a family bedroom with a double bed and a single bed with plenty of space for all the family. Completing the property is the contemporary family shower room with stunning walk-in shower and WC.

Great location and the layout of the apartment is brilliant. But the access is quite off-putting and the cleanliness wasn't great.

Great location right on the harbour front, a lot bigger than was expected with fantastic views, parking space was good but quite a distance from the apartment. Access was down a service road to the rear of the apartment which you can park in to unload when arriving

Fantastic apartment located right on the harbour front with a bay window with seating area. The apartment had everything we needed with shops and restaurants all around. The bedrooms are at the back of the apartment, so you don't get the noise from the harbour front. A private car parking space is available near Trenwith Car Park. It's quite an uphRead moreill walk to the car park, but there are shuttle buses from the town centre. Hide

We had a lovely stay at Harbour Sands, the apartment was very comfortable and was equipped with everything we needed. We have stayed in St Ives many times before but this was by far the best located holiday accommodation. We loved sitting in the window seat looking out across the harbour and we were just moments from all the shops and restaurants.

Down a tiny back street and up some stairs is this beautiful flat. The view is spectacular, although some conversations from the Wharf drift in through the windows. You can watch the boats go in and out, people wander across the beach and the tide disappear around the edge of the harbour. The bedrooms are at the back of the flat so feel insulatRead moreed from the hustle and bustle at the front. Hide
