Explore the characterful fishing village of St. Ives on your next break away and spend your time between the four breath-taking beaches in the local area where you can surf, swim and sunbathe to your heart’s content. This property is a perfect base for couples, located less than half a mile from the beaches and the bustling town centre, as well as having sea views from the top-floor apartment.

The heart of this apartment is the open-plan living room/kitchen/diner which enjoys far-reaching coastal views right out of the window. Kick back and watch a film on the sumptuous sofa or read a book on one of the leather chairs to relax before heading through to the kitchen to cook up a feast which can be served up on the wooden dining table. At bedtime, retire to the double bedroom which features a chair, a dressing table and a subtle nautical theme. Completing the property is a blue and white bathroom with a shower over the bath.

Lovers of art will relish the opportunity to explore the many galleries of St. Ives, all within a mile of your doorstep, including the Tate St. Ives which has frequently changing exhibitions from modern art and light installations to historic features of world-class artists’ work. Spend time by the sea at Porthminster, Barmaluz or Porthgwidden Beach, all of which encapsulate the magic of the Cornish coast and interlink via the South West Coast Path. For a day trip further afield, visit Marazion to walk across the bay at low tide to the iconic island of St. Michael’s Mount where you’ll have the chance to spot rare tropical flora and fauna, as well as marvel at the beauty of the historic castle.

It is a bit dated and could do with a bit of an update. Light in bedroom over dressing table and above mirror in bathroom do not work. Bathroom smells of fish... Quilt just about covers the bed but not the people in it. We have stayed in much better in this block.

This property was perfectly placed. The location was brilliant. The apartment was on the small side for two adults and two pre teens so I would say ideal for a couple and no more. Views from the apartment were stunning. Property is close by to everything you need -shops, super market, beach, bus, trains, restaurants etc. The hills and steps are a gRead moreiven so be prepared for a short walk up the hill from the beach. St Ives overall was impressive and Id 100% book again. The allocated parking is a must have. Not sure what we would have done without it. The apartment is in the perfect location as not to have to drive down the very narrow and difficult roads Hide

We have enjoyed staying at several flats at Carrack Widden over the years. Each flat is comfortable, clean and we feel at home in them all. Each one boasts a wonderful view of Porthminster Beach. We would like to say particular thanks to the caretaker who looks after the site. He is available for any queries and keeps the everything spick and sRead morepan. The outside steps to each flat are kept in excellent condition. We look forward to visiting Carrack Widden again in the future. Hide
