This apartment is a prime example of when location, design and the space itself dovetail into something really rather remarkable. Behind the front door, the wooden floor, neutral walls and large windows create a bright and inviting interior, with a touch of class added from the building's grand features, such as the arched doorways and high ceilings. The kitchen is both large and modern enough for long dinner parties, while there's also a small games room to keep little ones out of the way for a while. Outside, guests get access to a private courtyard, which has a barbecue for those warm evenings. If the weather's agreeable while you're here, there's no shortage of activities to undertake nearby. Porthkidney Beach is the closest stretch of the seaside — only a quarter of an hour's walk — but there are lots more options within easy driving distance. Tate St Ives only takes fifteen minutes to reach in the car as well.

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. Just wandering along the charming narrow, cobbled streets is a delightful experience.
