    From lazing on the beach, to going on a boat trip to see the seals, to visiting St Michael's Mount, to viewing the sunset at Porthmeor Beach, to exploring the shipwreck at Land's End. Lovely location and a great apartment to come home to at the end of the day. Thanks!

  • Rachel

    A very well-equipped apartment with amazing sea views. The place was very clean, and spacious for a family of 4. Just a short walk down to the beautiful beach (if you don't mind a steep climb back up!) and a quick train journey to St Ives. We would love to stay there again!

    Spotlessly clean, well appointed. Definitely has the wow factor! Cannot speak highly enough of this place
