I love this apartment and have stayed here on many occasions. The location is ideal, being convenient for beaches and town and the apartment has a fantastic view across the harbour - so there is always something to watch. It is also extremely well equipped, comfortable and clean. What's not to like????

The Wharf, otherwise known as St Ives harbour, is a hive of activity throughout the year. With a continual hustle and bustle on the water and along the harbour front, there is always plenty to do and see while self catering at the Wharf, even at the quieter times of the year. It’s an ever changing scene so perfect for those artists among you. Don’t forget about the very sheltered, sandy Harbour Beach, a perfect sun-trap in the heart of town and a great place to find seaglass and sea pottery! As night falls at the end of another perfect day, St Ives comes alive with a selection of bars, restaurants and cafés to suit every pocket and every taste in a truly cosmopolitan atmosphere.
Boat Trips
Why not enjoy the scenery by boat and explore the coastline with an excursion with St Ives Boat Trips. Fishing trips are available for those looking for a bit of adventure, or for a more relaxing experience, a visit to seal island lets you see seals basking on the rocks at certain times of year.
Eating and Drinking
The Wharf is home to a wide selection of restaurants and cafes, serving up fresh fish and chips to gourmet burgers, with something to suit everyone. Enjoy an ice cream or Cornish pasty and watch the world go by on the harbour front, but remember to keep your wits about you; seagulls in St Ives are renowned for swooping in and stealing food right from your hands!
Smeaton's Pier
From here you'll get a stunning view of the harbour, and an up close view of the crystal clear waters. At the entrance to the pier you'll find St Leonard's Chapel; originally dedicated for local fisherman, it is now a museum and memorial for the fisherman of St Ives.
Lifeboat station
Home to the new £1.5 million lifeboat, the RNLI lifeboat station is a popular attraction for visitors to St Ives. The gift shop next door sells souvenirs where all profits go towards helping to save lives at sea.

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.

We loved our holiday at Low Tide and would definitely recommend it - the location on the harbour front is fantastic.

Fantastic location - a perfect base to explore St Ives and watch the world go by.
Mrs Heywood Aug 2020
Low Tide is an absolute gem of an apartment. Ideally located in the heart of St Ives, overlooking the harbour, it is handy for beaches and town. The apartment is very well equipped with quality furnishings and equipment and offers a comfortable and welcoming base, whatever time of year you take your holiday.
Miss Turner Mar 2020
I have stayed at Low Tide on The Wharf a number of times and always have a great time. I love the uninterupted view over the harbour - so there is always something interesting to watch. The location is unrivalled, meaning everywhere is close by. The apartment is cosy, comfortable and clean with quality bed linen and fluffy towels, comfy furnishings and a very well equipped kitchen. It feels like home from home for me and I really love it.
Miss Turner Oct 2019
This apartment ticks all the boxes for a super holiday would highly recommend and booking with Aspects Holidays was so easy
Mrs Hunt Oct 2019
We love both Low Tide and High tide and have stayed several times in these properties. They are well equipped and the bed is very comfortable which is important when on holiday. We were over the moon when we saw the TV had been upgraded to a large smart TV!! (certainly needed when you have children). There are plenty of cleaning products and tablets for the dishwasher, kitchen equipment and lots of towels too. The best bit for us is the views they are fantastic and you get a real feel for the harbour area from this property, its truly beautiful.
Mr Smith Sep 2019
Wonderful location, well appointed decoration and equipment friendly and professional service from all of the team. Overall a wonderful place to stay and enjoy St Ives.
Mr Gardner Sep 2019
We love St Ives. Lots to do and see. Also some excellent restaurants and cafes. The fish and seafood dishes are really nice and always fresh. We would recommend three although every one is very good. Beach Cafe and Portminster Kitchen both on the harbour, and Porthmeor Beach Cafe which you will find on the map, This was our second time with Aspects-Holidays. Always excellent service. So good we've already booked for next year.
Mr Poulsom Jun 2019
Low Tide is ideal for people with mobility issues and is perfectly situated for guests to look out over the harbour. Have booked again next year.

We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your time at Low Tide, The Wharf; it certainly is a perfect spot to enjoy those views of the harbour and a spot of people watching! We are also glad to hear that the access worked well for you; it is classed as accessible as it is accessed from the ground floor and all on one level, so it can work perfectly for those with limited mobility, though it should be noted that it is not wheelchair friendly. We hope that we will see you back here again soon, but if you are looking to try anywhere different, please do get in contact with our sales team before booking so that we can advise on the suitability of access.

This is a wonderful cottage with fantastic views over the harbour- good enough to make you want to stay in all day in the colder months.

Lovely comfortable well equipped apartment in one of the best locations in St Ives. Recently re-fitted bathroom, with very spacious shower, is a bonus and the beds are among the most comfortable I have ever encountered in holiday accommodation. Really useful welcome package of tea, coffee, sugar, milk and biscuits was also very happily received after a long journey. Thank you.

We were sorry to read that you felt that Low Tide, The Wharf was due a bit of sprucing up at the time of your visit. The owner of Low Tide is regularly refreshing the decor and we're happy to report that just after your stay, he had the flooring replaced in the bathroom and has painted throughout. Thanks for taking the time to give us your review. Tanya, Customer Services.
Best flat in the best place in the world. !!!
