The Apartment, 25 St Nicholas Court

The Apartment, 25 St Nicholas Court, St Ives, Cornwall, England

Wander St Ives' cobbled lanes, visit the Tate, surf the blue waves, then return to a sheltered terrace and gorgeous beach views - a great spot for an evening tipple. Your stylish apartment is part of a concreted complex in a quiet corner of town, a stone's throw from Porthmeor Beach, with a courtyard in its centre, communal seating and an outdoor shower... surfers may prefer to wash off here before making their way upstairs where Grahame the owner, a perfectionist, has created a fresh, light-filled interior. In the open-plan living area are cool nautical hues, sweeping wooden-effect floors and super modern furniture. Twin beds - handy for an extra couple or little ones - masquerade as sofas, you get funky artwork by local painters on the walls, and crisp limestone-tiled bathrooms with locally made smellies. A smart, cosy double (no views) leads off, and your kitchen, immaculate in black and white, neatly fits everything you need into a good space: table and chairs for four, cooker, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washer/dryer - useful for salty swimming gear. A great getaway for surfing friends, couples and small families.
