Neap Tide offers extremely well-equipped first floor accommodation for couples who are looking to book a stay on the quieter side of town, but only a couple of minutes' walk from the town centre and Porthminster Beach, with its renowned beach cafe. The apartment offers beautiful sea views across the bay and over Porthminster. You also have the added bonus of your own private parking space, so you can explore all that West Cornwall has to offer.

Neap tide is a perfect place to stay for couples, I could have sat and looked out of the windows over Porthminster Beach all day long. The whole apartment is beautifully decorated and clean. Very comfortable bed and everything you need to cater for yourself.

The place cannot be faulted in any way.. Everything is to a high standard.
Mr Garrick Jan 2024
My husband and I spent a wonderful week in Neap Tide at the beginning of October. I recorded a video from the minute we stepped in the door, and I have already shared it with friends and family along with Aspect holidays details! The apartment is light airy very tastefully furnished, and so well stocked "nothing" has been missed. We own a 5 star B&B in Scotland and have been in the industry for 16yrs, so we tend to notice even the smallest detail. We have decided if we are ever lucky enough to come back to St Ives, only Neap Tide will do. Thanks for the memories.
Mrs Hadley Oct 2023
Great position overlooking Porthminster beach. The property was clean, neat and tidy with the kitchen area being well stocked with crockery and utensils etc. We had a great stay - so handy for the town centre, bus station, train station and parking spot provided as well. We will come again.

We had a wonderful holiday in Cornwall staying at neap tide. Be warned though parking is very difficult To say the least. But the apartment and St. Ives were well worth it

It's great to hear you had such a lovely time at Neap Tide. We try to provide as much parking information as we can to make manoeuvring into the space as easy as possible, and we do recommend reversing into the space each time for ease. We are glad you agree that having an allocated parking space is definitely worth it as parking can be difficult to come across in St Ives, especially in peak periods. Katy, Customer Services.
Neap Tide is perfect for couples to relax and unwind looking at great views of porthminster beach. The apartment itself is finished to a good level and is spotlessly clean. We really really didn’t want for nothing.Parking is always a bonus in St.ives but is quite tight. Would definitely stay again.
Mr Mulgrew Jun 2023
