We had the most amazing holiday here in St Ives. The apartment exceeded all our expectations ,it is superbly designed, immaculately clean, and has absolutely everything we could ever need for a comfortable stay. The attention to detail really makes it feel like a home away from home. The highlight, of course, was the incredible sea view, waking up each morning to that view was simply magical, and watching the sunsets in the evening was unforgettable. The location is perfect for exploring St Ives, yet peaceful enough to relax and truly unwind. Thank you so much for providing such a beautiful space ,it made our holiday extra special, and we would love to return one day!

Sun Shine in St Ives

We All Loved our stay in St Ives, and Helen's apartment was faultless in all ways, Location was excellent, I was able to go for my swim each morning just across the road to the beach, and harbour was just a short walk, Even though we left Apartment as we thought in good time giving us 6 hours to get to Bristol Airport we missed our flights the traffic was terrible, it took us 7 hours, but no fault only ourselves But if I was ever back to St Ives I would only stay in Helen's Apartment

Comfortable, Convenient & Chic

Comfortable luxury apartment with the added bonus of a parking space right outside. Convenient for the beach and St Ives and to just drive out and explore. Chic design with a real flair for decor. Helen was excellent at responding, despite being abroad she still called us straight away which we really appreciated. We would definitely choose to stay here again. We found one of the beds much more comfortable but it is a personal choice of how soft you like a bed and we are extremely fussy so it’s a big plus that we were happy and sleeping so well.

Great location to beach and food. Love the bakeries! Place was overall clean but carpets could use a cleaning as well as a cleaning of glassware. Had to wash before use. Also, paper towels/napkins would have been nice. We arrived late with a takeaway pizza and had nothing to wipe our hands with. Also, we stayed 4 nights and had 2 rolls of toilet paper. It goes fast when one has to use it to blow one’s nose since there was also no tissue available. These are just simple adjustments to recommend, not a reflection of the property as a whole. We loved the property and the assigned parking space! We would stay here again!

Spring/Easter Break Trip

My wife, son, and I had an amazing stay in St. Ives and the beach view from the bay windows of this property was truly one of the highlights of our vacation. It made for a perfect start to every day. The property was immaculately clean and well located. The designated parking spot was a real plus and made arrival and departure a breeze in a town of notoriously tight streets. Having the basics (toilet paper, soap, and coffee and milk!) already there made for an easy start to our stay. Already looking for our next trip across rhe Pond to stay here again.

My husband, myself and 2 kids recently stayed at this place during our visit to cornwall. I was looking for something quiet and peaceful, luxurious and comfortable and definitely something with a beach view - apartment 4 was exactly what I had hoped for! The view of the sea from the loving room is breathtaking and its so close to the beach that it almost feels like you are on the beach. You can hear the waves crashing at night and just looking out at the sea at night was just soo utterly peaceful! The interior design is posh artistic and just perfect. The apartment was impeccably clean and the linen fresh and comfortable. There were age appropriate games for the kids and a reasonable collection of books as well. This place is just a fe minutes from Porthminster beach and Porthgwidden is only a 5 min drive or so. Helen the host was very easy to contact and she was super quick to respond. She made single beds up for my kids which was very thoughtful of her. Claire the manager was very helpful. She let us know the morning of our check in that the room was ready way before we were meant to check and on the day of check out it was very thoughtful of her to let us know we didn’t need to rush to check out and could take our time! Little things but it just goes to show how welcoming and wonderfully hospitable they are. Thank you for making our trip just perfect ! Needless to say we highly recommend this place to all! We will be back x Mashfika/Tanvir and the kids :)
