Property code: OC-WHRF3

This bright and airy holiday home is situated in the thriving fishing town of St Ives. Perfect for a gathering with a large family or group of friends, this seaside home boasts panoramic sea and harbour views and is just moments from all the action.

This traditional apartment oozes homely touches, thanks to the owners keeping it in the family since 1957. With relaxation at the heart of the house, the property has been thoughtfully laid out with pillowy seating in front of exquisite views and a toe-warming coal-effect electric fire for those chillier evenings. Unwind with a glass of something cool as you start dinner in the modern, well-appointed kitchen and gather around the table to share food and laughter. There are two cosy bedrooms for when the night comes to an end, featuring a double bedroom with a classic holiday home feel and another bedroom with three single beds.

Setting the standard for the term "picturesque", St Ives offers the perfect base for those looking to see incredible coastlines and jaw-dropping countryside landscapes. The property is near many beautiful beaches; Porthmeor is a short stroll away, while Gwithian and Godrevy (9 miles) are ideal for those looking for consistent waves. The South West Coast Path passes nearby the front door, with easy access to stunning cliff-top walks towards Carbis Bay. While there, try out one of their many award-winning restaurants, fish and chip shops, ice cream parlours and lots more. Return to nature with a boat trip over to Seal Island or a visit to Trengwainton Garden (9 miles).

We have stayed at number 3 for over 20 years we return every year for the fantastic view and location in St. Ives The only thing we would change about the flat is a more comfortable double bed, summer duvets and new duvet covers.

Absolutely fantastic view and accommodation is in the perfect place . No faults as such just a couple of things that I think could be improved would be a Hoover that works properly the one at the accommodation didnt pick up very well and didnt actually stand up when you needed to use the tools (we visited the beach each day and liked to Hoover theRead more sand up each time to keep the carpets clean) the shower head in the bathroom was very discoloured and the netting in the window of the bathroom was an awful dirty colour,the shower curtain also didnt fit properly it was hanging by only a few attachments at the top of the rail.

We have stayed at this property for the last fifteen years or so, Mr Jefford and Julie are wonderful and they are the reason we keep coming. Original Cottages took over from St Iives Holidays and since then I feel we have lost that personal touch.and the price rises quite a bit each year and we have to pay for our holiday a good deal earlier in theRead more year than before.. It is only beCause we love St Ives a new Mr Jeff that we continue to use your company. Hide
