About this property

St James Rest - sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms

Newly Refurbished to an exceptional Standard """"St James Rest"""" offers an individually accessed and self contained apartment attached to a historic Grade 2 Listed """"Sea Captains House"""" . This impressive yet personal building sits 500m from the Town, the main train station and just above Porthminster Beach. It is also only a 2 minute walk from the main St Ives car park.

It has private front and rear entrances and an outside area for """"bistro"""" dinning in fine weather.

I live off site and I have very reliable local support through a professional housekeeping company.

A quiet area of St Ives only a 500m walk down to Portminster Beach and St Ives Town Centre.

There is a water sports equipment storage and wetsuit drying yard to the rear……with outside showers coming very soon…
