  • A light and refreshing top-floor apartment on the St Ives harbourfront
  • Featuring exposed beams and stunning views across the bay
  • Providing romantic, spacious, high-ceilinged accommodation for two

Property code: OC-CP5

This gorgeous top-floor apartment, with amazing views of the bay and beaches,  is in an incredible location right on the busy harbour front of St Ives above the Rum and Crab Shack restaurant/bar which does play live music. It’s close to everything in town and Harbour beach is just over 150 metres away, it’s perfect for a couple looking for somewhere special to stay while being in the heart of the action.

The flat’s been beautifully and thoughtfully decorated; it has bags of character, is wonderfully light and has plenty of space for two. It’s all on one floor with an open plan living/kitchen/dining area where you can cook romantic dinners, watch the Smart TV, make use of the books and games, and sit on the window seat and watch the world go by. There’s a stunning double bedroom, which has plenty of storage for your holiday outfits, and incredible views. Plus, there’s a stylish shower room, and a dressing room/study with hanging space and a sofa to chill on. There’s no private outside space but you’re literally on the harbour where you can sit with your fish and chips, or you can head to the beach or a beer garden.

For an evening of live music, pop downstairs to the popular restaurant and bar (the flat is above it) or head out and explore the bars, pubs, and restaurants in town. You’ll have your pick of different cuisines, from crab to lobster to fish and chips, fantastic seafood is a given. St Ives is also an arty town and home to one of the four Tate Galleries (less than 300 metres away), as well as a host of other art venues. The cobbled streets house charming gift shops and craft shops waiting to be explored and then there are the beaches, four fabulous beaches with miles and miles of golden sand.

Lovely apartment & great central location facing the harbour. Difficult to get to with luggage due to the narrow winding staircase so not recommended if stairs are a problem. I did ask holidaycottages ( who booked through ) if there was a hairdryer in the property. I was told there wasnt but on arrival I found one in the draw. Id taken my own wRead morehich took up space in my case that I didnt need after all. Hide

I had a perfect stay in this cosy cottage overlooking the harbour. Very clean and tidy. Shops, good restaurants, many galleries all in walking distance. Great walks to Carbis Bay (train back) and Man Head. The pub below can be a bit noisy at the weekend. Would highly recommend.

Beautiful place to stay, the room its self lacked nothing, very nicely set out, clean and tidy, lots of facilities and added extras, even down to providing binoculars to look at the stunning view, the only downside to staying here was that there was no allocated parking so we had to use pay and display car parks which were always full and took us 2Read more and a half hours to find somewhere to park after wed made a 6 and a half hour car journey to st Ives Hide

We absolutely love staying at 5 Kopper Kettle. The appartment is always spotless and the location is unbeatable with a stunning sea view. For a harbour location, it is so quiet and peaceful. We look forward to our stays every year and couldnt recommend highly enough to any couple looking for a St Ives stay!
