Beautiful apartment with stunning views of both Porthminster Beach and the Harbour. Plenty of room, and the benefit of a car space. Obviously with it being so high up, the hills are steep!!

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.

Fantastic property, fantastic location and amazing views, we loved it! Thank you.
Mrs Basset May 2018
Excellent value for a family holiday with 6 adults and we didn't feel crowded. Well equipped kitchen and all the furnishings and fittings were of a high standard. Great views from the main bedroom and lounge. Good location and not too many steepl hills to climb to get home at the end of the day/ evening!! Will definitely book again.
Mrs Robinson March 2018
Good location only a short walk into the town centre.
Mr Mansell December 2017
A very pleasant apartment with stunning views. Possibly slightly cramped for 6 adults with parking rather tight for anything bigger than an average family car. Ideally situated for porthminster beach and the town, and would certainly consider returning on future occasions.
Mr Little September 2016
A fabulously laid out, beautifully equipped property. Fabulous views and ideally located for the beach and town.
Mr Howarth March 2016
Lyonesse Seven was very easy to find on our way into St Ives. As was parking and entry into the apartment.
Myself, my wife and 3 kids have been coming to St Ives for many years and we thought we would try somewhere new to stay.
From the moment we stepped into the accommodation we knew it was special. The layout was quirky, the quality of the furnishings and appliances were excellent, the rooms were big and the views were really quite special. A clear view of the harbour one side and looking down to Porthminster beach and St Ives bay from the front. Amazing sunrises in the morning! Wow.
We would definitely love to come back and stay here again! Thank you.
Mr Jervis February 2016
