About this property
Ocean View, a superb, ground-floor apartment, is perfectly-situated in the picturesque location of St Ives, Cornwall. With gorgeous sea views from the living area and balcony, this is the ideal spot to relax and unwind, with all the amenities, shops and the beach close by. After parking up in the allocated space, be welcomed into your new home-from-home, discovering the charming living/dining room, offering a bright and airy space to enjoy with your loved ones, with an electric fire for those chilly evenings and a private balcony with furniture to appreciate the stunning sea views. The kitchen is a haven for the designated chef of the group with all the essentials for a week away; rustle up a culinary delight and gather around the dining table ready to tuck in over a glass of fizz. When the weather permits, why not take your dining experience outdoors, soaking up your tranquil surroundings and planning your itinerary for the days ahead? When the evening draws to a close, freshen up with use of the family bathroom, indulging a long soak or revitalising shower before completing your routine and hunkering down in your chosen bedroom. A king-size boasts its very own en-suite shower room, whilst the twin bedroom is ideal for the younger members of your group. If you can tear yourself away, the nearby beach of Carbis Bay is a must-visit, just a short drive away. Marvel at the soft golden sand, soak up the sun and enjoy a refreshing dip in the crystal-clear waters. If you’re looking to explore further, a trip to Penzance is a great option, where you can take a stroll around the harbour, visit St. Michael’s Mount, sample some seafood, or simply enjoy the local atmosphere. For a more adventurous day out, venture to the port of Portreath, with a selection of watersports to choose from and a range of shops and eateries to explore. Whatever you choose to do, Ocean View is the perfect base for an unforgettable holiday.
One of Cornwall's prettiest harbour towns, St Ives offers narrow streets, tight-packed cottages nestling around the quayside, the Tate Gallery and Barbara Hepworth museum, fabulous beaches, superb shops, a thriving community of artists, great pubs and restaurants and much more. With its semi Bohemian lifestyle and romantic air, it's easy to see why this is the county's premier holiday resort. The surrounding area has much for the visitor to see and do with abundant wildlife, fabulous coastal walks, top quality surfing and the Celtic mysteries of the Land's End Peninsula are all within easy reach. A superb destination!

But had a problem with the fridge not working. Not hardly getting cold. Waisted food because of this. It was a good job we had the beer fridge. When we arrive there was no parking permit but that was quickly sorted. Everything else was good
