3 Seabirds House
Porthmeor, St Ives

£368 - £750 per week
Book

Set neatly in an elevated position over St Ives harbour front, only minutes away on foot, is 3 Seabirds House. The apartment lends itself perfectly to those looking to be close to all that St Ives has to offer, yet in a quiet position away from the crowds, giving that 'stress-free' holiday feeling, as everything you need is a stone's throw away. With a picture window framing views across the harbour and beyond from the dining area, take in the vista while enjoying your morning coffee, with hot buttered toast, freshly made in the local bakery, before heading out for the day. The modern, and light filled living space is the perfect place to relax after a busy day of exploring, where you can unwind in front of the Smart TV to watch the latest movies.

A short meander downhill will lead you to the Digey where Porthmeor Beach can be found in one direction, and in the other the picturesque harbour front, where you can wander the quant cobbled streets, lined with its plentiful selection of independent shops, galleries, restaurants, and cafes. You can easily while away a leisurely afternoon indulging in some retail therapy or seeking out your new favourite coffee shop. For beach and sea lovers, a day spent on Porthmeor beach is a must with its golden sands, beachside café, and surf school, or just unwinding with a good book in the Cornish sunshine. For a spot of culture, the iconic Tate Gallery is within easy walking distance and is a great stop off on the way to the beach, or perhaps a visit to the Barbara Hepworth Museum and beautiful Sculpture Garden. Along with five stunning beaches to choose from, beautiful clifftop walks are easily accessed from 3 Seabirds, via the Southwest Coastal Path - a must for any keen walkers.

My husband and I had a lovely stay at 3 Seabirds, the apartment is really nicely decorated fresh and bright and gives a lovely holiday vibe as soon as you walk in. Plenty of cooking equipment and other household items to help with your stay. A great view from the living room window to have breakfast or morning coffee especially as the sun was beaming in when we stayed. The location was perfect for us as we like to have a car park close by, although on top of the hill it’s manageable. A good workout after sampling the local Cornish pasty and we appreciate a lot of St Ives and surrounding area is hilly. We would definitely stay at the apartment again and I have already recommended it to family and friends.

'Seabirds' consisted of a ground floor self contained apartment plus four further self contained apartments with a communal hallway.

Our apartment Number 3 on the first floor had been recently redecorated and was clean, well equipped comfortable and close to the beach and all amenities. The owner had gone to much trouble adorning the walls with local artwork and personal possessions and also providing local craft soft furnishings to add that finishing touch.

We were fortunate that St Ives was holding its September Festival and many concerts were taking place in the local church

The price of this apartment for the two of us for a week was very reasonable and it made an ideal base for visiting the locality

3 seabirds is a nice size property for a 1 bedroom and price. The kitchen is well equipped. It was worth what we paid but should be noted that although it’s close to barnoon car park which is great the apartment is situated on a very steep hill. The walk from any amenities including beach restaurants shops is quite challenging. Overall was a good stay

Like much of St Ives, unless you are right in the centre of the town, you will find hills to navigate, so many properties in St Ives are perched on these hills. Whilst it is not a flat, easy walk, you get the benefit of being out of the main hustle and bustle and the views over the town. We do hope that you still enjoyed it. Tanya, Customer Services

I booked from overseas and found 3 Seabirds House through the St Ives School of Painting, where I had enrolled for a course. It was a great location for the School, The Tate Gallery and the Barbara Hepworth Garden. A delightful view from a small window was an artistic inspiration and the maze of tiny streets and alleyways a delight, once I had learned the way!

Lovely apartment, at the top of a steep hill but such a handy spot, for accessing beaches and centre of St Ives. The apartment is small but has everything you could possibly need. Great apartment for two people travelling lightly. Parking was not an issue as we always use the Rugby Club if apartment has no parking.
