Great apartment in a great location - convenient for St Ives but also quiet and traffic free, apart from the lovely noise of the sea
Mr Ayers October 2024
Lovely clean apartment overlooking the beautiful bay of St Ives. Parking space which is a bonus but a steep hill to walk up from the parking. However you do get used to it and the apartment makes up for it when your back in. Roughly a 10 minutes walk to the Harbour.

A great flat in an amazing location. Having access to a parking slot, even down the steep hill, was a real plus. It was nice to be out of the noise of the centre whilst being only a short walk along a well marked path away.
Mr Harrison Oct 2024
I had a brilliant stay in Seagrass in St Ives. The apartment was spacious and light with the most wonderful views over the bay. The apartment was both comfortable and tastefully decorated making it a pleasure to stay there. The location was also good. Only a short walk to Porthminster beach with its beach cafe and restaurant. However a very steep climb on return to the apartment. But with the views its well worth it.
Mrs Gameson Sep 2024
We had a wonderful stay at Seagrass. The location of this lovely flat perched just above Porthminster Beach is excellent, and the views from the gorgeous stained glass sash windows are unbeatable. One could spend a long while just gazing out at the spectacular view of the beach and the sea beyond.
The flat is tastefully decorated in a coastal theme and well appointed for a comfortable stay. The team at Aspects Holidays were excellent. They were very responsive both before and during our holiday and did everything they could to ensure we had a smooth moving in process and a fulfilling holiday.
I would highly recommend both Seagrass and the team at Aspects Holidays.

Excellent views
Mrs Perkins Jul 2024
Lovely, comfortable well-fitted-out apartment with a fantastic view over St Ives. Only around a 10-15 minute walk to town and a couple of minutes from the beach. The facilities were excellent. Very good value for money.
Mr Hayward Mar 2024
Seagrass is well equipped, comfortable and clean and the views are stunning from this first floor property. A great base for strolling into St Ives (10-15 minute walk) with its amazing beaches, art studios, shops and the Tate gallery. Stunning walks in both directions, towards Zennor or to Carbis Bay and Lelant. The car parking space is a 5 minute walk down a very steep hill and it's hard work walking back up to the property. A great base for exploring South Cornwall.
Mrs Moran Feb 2024
Beautiful property with an amazing view. Very comfortable and cosy. Would definitely revisit.
Mrs Astle Dec 2023
Lovely apartment with stunning views and quirky design features. Very comfortable beds. Good location, steep hill to climb but worth it.
