Description
This well-presented, luxury apartment lies in the heart of St Ives, just a short walk from shops, restaurants and the harbour and completed to a high standard with quality fixtures and fittings.
This inviting abode is the perfect escape for a family looking to escape to one of Cornwall’s prettiest towns.
From the street there are a few steps to enter the communal hallway with another staircase leading to the entrance of the apartment, boasting high ceilings keeping with the traditional feel for the building.
Head inside and discover the bedrooms, with the master offering a king-size with en-suite shower room whilst there is also a sumptuous twin, serviced by a wonderful bathroom with sunken bath and an integrated TV into the wall!
Up another set of stairs leads to the spacious, open-plan living space, where you can look forward to impressing your loved ones with delicious meals, prepared in the amply-equipped kitchen, featuring a handy dishwasher, and ready to enjoy at the dining table.
After a tasty meal, snuggle up on the chesterfield sofas and choose a film from the Smart TV.
When you’re ready to explore, St Ives is a fantastic holiday destination with a host of tasty eateries within a gentle stroll, perfect for when you fancy a night away from the kitchen.
Pack-up your seaside essentials and head to the glorious sands of Porthminster beach, where you can bathe, paddle the shores or test your balancing skills at paddleboarding, with help from the St Ives Surf School.
On your return, head up to the renowned Porthminster Café and sample freshly caught seafood whilst appreciating those sea views.
Elsewhere in the town, explore the picturesque harbour, learn about local history at the Saint Ives Museum and the Captain Sir Richard Francis Burton Museum, whilst art lovers can browse a plethora of art galleries, including Tate St Ives, The Leach Pottery and Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden.
Further afield, the delights of Penzance await, plus the South West Coastal Path can’t be missed for those keen walkers.

What guests are saying
WE HAVE HAD A WONDERFUL HOLIDAY THANK YOU WE WOULD NOT STAY AT THE BANK AGAIN THOUGH BECAUSE THE STREET OUTSIDE IS VERY NOISY, ESPECIALLY WEEKENDS, WHEN THE PUBS CHUCK OUT WITH ARGUING AND FIGHTING OUTSIDE THE BUILDING
great central location and good that it has a parking space, we know it would be noisy but we didn't realise it would be that bad, pub down the road playing music sometimes till nearly 2am on Thursday morning.
Lovely shutters on Windows but a 2 inch gap in the master bedroom and bathroom ones so had to get the blankets from the other beds to cover them as they are facing the main street! Hot tap in master bathroom would not turn on then when it did it took a while to turn off so used other sink in bathroom, Bins are supposed to be emptied Saturday afternoons when we came to put rubbish in it on Wednesday it was full to the brim. We prefer to stay In apartments and cottages so we can relax after a day out but them settee's are so uncomfortable. Bed was comfy though. We won't be staying the the centre again
Lovely flat… the entrance area could do with some work, the main door warped, the area to the right full of bottles, cans and rubbish (might not be owned, but still looks terrible)… no key for the garage to put rubbish out… notes not up-to-date regarding this in the welcome book (different advise on wall) - bit confusing (met cleaner of no.
2 on last morning, who was lovely and said she would sort for us, which was lovely especially as not our cleaner!!) Apart from that fabulous apartment and loved our stay in my old home town! Bear in mind town centre location which means noisy people leaving pubs at night and early bin and glass bank emptying at silly o’clock in the morning - bring ear plugs!!!!
