Property code: OC-HARTS

A contemporary waterfront property with harbour views and serene ocean vistas across St Ives Bay. This sophisticated hideaway is the perfect base for a family escape or retreat with friends on the Cornish West Coast. Tackle rolling swells during a guided surf session on the glistening waters Porthmeor Beach (1 mile), before tucking into a fresh summer spread overlooking the bustling harbour below.

This breezy apartment features a wonderfully airy interior with warm wooden textures, striking dual-aspect windows, and sleek neutral tones throughout. Ascend the internal staircase then step inside to unlace boots and hang sandy windbreakers. Venture into the sun-drenched lounge/kitchen/diner to unwind after a day by the sea. Rustle up a post-adventure snack board in the wooden shaker kitchen and browse the fridge for a chilled tipple. Adorn the dining table with an indulgent evening feast and raise a toast to your special occasion while the sun slips below the horizon. Retreat to the lounge area and sink onto the soft seats with a brew. Enjoy a restorative rinse in the shower room before diving into the soft linens of bright double or twin room. Soak up the balmy Cornish climate from the abundance of award-winning beaches on your doorstep or grab a bite to eat from the cafe below.

Admire abstract sculptures and embrace interactive exhibitions at the ionic Tate St Ives (200 metres) then explore the winding cobbled streets to scope out the best coffee nooks and independent craft stores (500 metres). While away the hours on the golden shores of Porthminster Beach (600 metres) or embark on a blustery saunter to the scenic Clodgy Point (1 mile).

Beautiful views of the harbour - every window is like a picture. Next to the sloop but noise didnt bother us on our stay. Bed was comfy and warm Would have liked more than one toilet roll and some hand wash included for our stay especially for the price paid per night Also steep steps into property - grab rails needed for less able bodied peopleRead more Hide

This is the third year running that we have stayed in this apartment. The only reason being the fantastic views of the harbour and location, possibly the best in St Ives. All the bed linen and towels were fantastically clean. All the beds clean and comfortable. Unfortunately in all that time there doesn't seem to have been a penny spent on any Read morerepairs, renovation or furniture. The same light bulbs that were out on year one are still out, in fact a few added to that. The same double glazed window with the sign saying 'do not open, waiting repair', still has the same notice and problem of the draught coming in. The old rusty radiators have still not been replaced. This year we visited earlier than previous and the central heating was totally inadequate, in fact I bought a fan heater to back up the one we found in a cupboard. The double glazing is again inadequate with the wind blowing in from the sea. There is no washing machine or dishwasher. If you are prepared to accept the basic accommodation for the magnificent views I would recommend this property. Hide

A lovely view and flat nicely furnished however you need to be prepared for the noise from the extraction flue from the cafe below.
