Overview
Property code: OC-PC466A

A charming apartment, with far-reaching ocean vistas, set on the busy harbour front of St Ives above the Rum and Crab Shack restaurant/bar which has an entertainment licence and does play live music until late. This breezy coastal home is the ideal escape for couples seeking to unwind by the sea. Sample a fragrant infusion of Mediterranean and Asian cuisine with an unbeatable backdrop at the Porthminster beachside restaurant (500 metres), before sinking onto the soft leather seats to watch the sun slipping below the horizon.

This property boasts a stylish simplicity with a cool neutral colour palette, cyan splashes of colour, and minimalist decor. Ascend the exterior granite steps and be lulled into the airy lounge/kitchen/diner by the striking picture windows. Whip up a simple supper in the glossy kitchenette then feast around the wooden dining table as you plan out your perfect West Coast itinerary. After supper, curl up on the quirky seats with a tipple and people-watch on the bustling waterfront below or unwind with a film. Enjoy a restorative rinse in the shower room before retiring to the inviting double bedroom for a relaxing night’s sleep. Outside, perch on the benches and soak in the early morning hustle and bustle of the harbour or take advantage of the outstanding beaches and walks a stone’s throw away.

Venture downstairs to scoff fresh seafood or catch a live music performance at the Rum and Crab Shack. Peruse a thought-provoking exhibition at the Tate St Ives (200 metres) or stroll along the gently lapping shoreline of Carbis Bay (1.5 miles). Don’t miss a visit to the iconic Land’s End Viewpoint (19 miles) to amble along the rugged clifftop trail.

Lovely and clean flat with amazing views of the harbour. Be prepared for the horrendous music going on until 12pm from the Rum and Crab shack below.

Noisy. If you are a party person out all night then book here. Otherwise do not book. The flat is shabby and needs updating. Furniture uncomfortable. Mainly just ridiculous noise til early hours then starts again when pub below opens for cleaners at 7.

Be honest & say that there will be some form of loud music every night finishing anytime between midnight & 1.30am. At this time the alarms are set which also is noisy. Also during the evening from approximately 9.00pm patrons of the pub decide to congregate on the passageway smoking & drinking very loudly which is a few feet from the windows.Read more Put this honest situation in your details & see how many positive responses you receive.

This is not a suitable place to stay. This flat is directly above a busy bar and the noise of the music is horrendous. We left after one night.

The noise was mentioned from below so was expected but not until almost 1.00am. Also you did not say in the particulars that patrons would congregate on the stairs & the passageway immediately below all three windows.

Lovely little apartment. Needed few things repairing but didnt spoil our stay. Lovely view from the windows. Shower cubicle pretty small but ok. All equipment was available. Place was clean. Good location.

The property is small and quite basic, but in a fabulous position overlooking the harbour. The excellent Rum and Crab Shack is just downstairs and didn't cause any noise issues for me - just a faint background murmer at times.

The apartment needs a complete renovation, old uncomfortable furniture, wooden window frames with catches hanging off, rain comes in and draughty. Noise from bar below until 2.30 am at weekends, Odd en-suite as washbasin outside in corner of the bedroom. Wardrobe used for housing two vacuum cleaners, instead of being empty for use of guests. View fRead morerom window good, but due to condensation they are steamed up a lot of the time. We would not stay here again and wished we had taken note of review on Tripadviser September 2020, things have not improved!! Hide

Superb location, nice tidy apartment. Was supposed to have a frying pan & coffee plunger, but didnt. Your office in town gave me a frying pan & promised to drop a plunger off next day, but didnt.
