Occupying an enviable spot overlooking St Ives Bay, this apartment is in prime position for long walks along the coast and relaxed afternoons on the soft white sands of Porthminster Beach, just six minutes from your doorstep. The interiors are muted with blues and greys in the living space and lots of crisp white in the bedrooms. After a restful slumber, make yourself comfortable on the plump sofa and watch the waves roll in through the floor-to-ceiling bay window. On warm afternoons, take the five-minute walk into the heart of St Ives for a fantastic selection of independent shops, cafes, ice cream parlours and restaurants. Admire modern British art in the Tate Gallery, ten minutes away, before enjoying a portion of fish and chips by the harbour. When the day draws to a close, head back home to watch the sky turn violet above the turquoise sea.
