Few apartments in St Ives can claim what this one delivers – direct access onto Porthmeor Beach, with wide glass doors that frame the Atlantic from the sunken living room. When the doors are thrown open, the line between inside and the sand essentially disappears. The sunken lounge makes for unhurried evenings with the sound of the sea close by, while the outdoor shower earns its keep after a surf. St Ives town centre is a short stroll away, the harbour quayside around five minutes on foot, and Tate St Ives is walkable in under ten.

Home truths

  • Your parking space sits in a residential garage on the premises and is pretty tight – if you're bringing a larger car or SUV, it may not fit comfortably. Please reach out to your host for exact measurements.

  • St Ives is best explored on foot – and from here, almost everything is within easy walking distance, including the beach, town centre, cafes, and restaurants.

  • For those with reduced mobility, there's a ground floor bedroom and bathroom here.

  • Because this apartment sits directly on the beach, a property manager may occasionally need to close the storm doors during high tide with large surf. It only lasts a few hours, and your host will oversee it.

About St Ives

You could easily mistake St Ives for a town on the coast of Italy, France or Spain, thanks to its smart waterfront overlooking the clear, blue sea and white-sand beach.
