We have many apartments overlooking the bay, many of which have parking. However, with the branch line train and bus stations just a couple of minutes’ walk away, Porthminster could be the ideal location for your self-catering holiday, whatever mode of transport you choose to arrive by.

Held on the anniversary of the consecration of the Parish Church of St Eia in 1434 AD, Feast Day offers visitors to witness - and even join in with - some centuries-old traditions. A morning precesison led by the Mayor to bless the Well of St Eia. Following this, the Mayor will 'Hurls the Silver Ball' into a crowd of children who assemble on the beach below. The one who returns the ball to the Guildhall steps by midday receives a silver coin. In the afternoon the Mayor then throw pennies from the balcony of the Guildhall for children to collect.

A wonderful two bedroomed apartment with stunning views of the harbour.
Mr Asquith May 2019
The views are beautiful. Watched the seals from the huge bay window and tennis being played every day just outside, there's never a dull moment. The town is a very pleasant, short stroll away. One of the cleanest places i have stayed. Very well equipped.

We are really glad to hear that you liked 3 Primrose Court, and thank you for your comments about the tv. The owners upgraded the tv in June to a 24 Samsung smart TV, with built-in Freeview and Internet access, so there should have been internet connection. We are sorry if this was not working during your stay and it is such a shame that you did not contact us at the time, as we would have done everything that we could to get this resolved for you. You will be pleased to hear that it has since been working fine, so should not be a problem if you are looking to return. Tanya, Customer Services.

Thank you for your comments. It's great to hear that you liked 3 Primrose Court and enjoyed the lovely views that you get from there. We made a few enquiries about the balcony, and don't worry, it is completely safe and normal. Tanya, Customer Services
The view from no 3 Primrose Court was breath taking, whatever the weather. A good location having only a short walk into St. Ives town. Lovely comfy beds and a balcony to sit out and enjoy the view.
Mrs Morgan Feb 2015
Aspects were brill, not sure if I would stay in this property again as it smelt of damp.
Mr Baxter Nov 2014

Thank you for your comments. Due to the slightly warmer, more humid conditions here in Cornwall, being so close to the sea, and the nature of the materials commonly used in buildings here, some properties may be susceptible to damp. This isn't something that we have ever had reported at 3 Primrose Court before now, so we popped over to inspect the property after reading your comments. There was not a damp smell present at that time, but things can vary from week to week, so we will continue to monitor this closely. Tanya, Customer Services.
Fantastic location, amazing views, good facilities. Would definitely like to stay here again.
