Rough sea apartment was superb! Perfect location, short walk to stunning beach and town center. With off road parking and easy access was a massive bonus too

We had the perfect stay at Rough Seas. We’ve stayed all over St Ives and this has been our favourite location so far, especially as Porthmeor lovers! Beautiful views of the sea and the weather rolling in, in all its glory, over Clodgey, with stunning sunsets from the window or the bench from the beautiful, peaceful graveyard nearby. We’d wanted to stay on this road for years and weren’t disappointed. Really quick access to town and the beaches … and the hills do get easier! The apartment has everything you need, with plenty of space and we appreciated the powerful hot towel rail to dry stuff out in no time. It’s surprisingly quiet (the windows keep out any outside noises) and with friendly neighbours upstairs, there’s just a really nice feel. We would definitely stay here again and really recommend this property.

Perfect little place for a family of four, really pretty furnishings and the lounge is really cozy for chilly evenings. We had everything we needed. The location is perfect, right above the beach and a stroll downhill into town, and the sea views from the lounge are stunning. The parking right outside the property was the cherry on the cake. Would stay again!

We have stayed in Rough Seas twice preferring a late Autumn visit to St Ives to avoid the crowds. It is in a great position for driving in avoiding Downalong and has a parking space. There is a view of the sea and coastline as well as the carpark opposite. You can walk everywhere in St Ives within minutes from this position but you need to be able to cope with steps or steep hills. Could run down to the surf beach in your wet suit from here. The flat is cosy once you get it warmed up and great for a small group. Quite a basic flat but more than sufficient for a lovely week in St Ives and good value out of the main season.

The location of the property is lovely but this is probably the first one we have stayed at in st.ives that we would actively avoid for a future visit . We have been regular visitors to st. Ives for over twenty years and love the location. Rough seas is a bit too rough around the edges.

A comfortable flat with lovely views and its' own parking space. Great location for St Ives town and beaches.

Best location, few minutes walk to town or beach, yes its steep, but its so short, so totally doable. Parking space is generous and is easy to get to, you dont have to drive through any of the nightmare streets of St Ives to get to it. The double mattress was a bit soft for our liking and to be honest the bathroom could probably do with replacing, but overall a comfortable stay. Plenty of clean towels etc. The location wins with this property. (It does also overlook Barnoon cemetery but you dont even notice it, because youre looking at the sea)

This was our second stay at this property. We decided to return due to the excellent location and availability of a large parking space right outside. As before, we loved the ability to walk to Porthmeor beach and into town within a few minutes, and having the rest of St Ives so close by. It made our holiday so relaxing as we didn’t have to worry about using the car.

Affordable accomodation near to town and beaches With a view out to sea

Very clean and comfortable property, excellent location for exploring the whole of St. Ives.

We enjoyed our weeks stay. Comfortable and a great location.

A lovely comfortable flat. A bit basic but more than sufficient for a family or group of friends who spend most of the time out and about in St Ives. Quiet location with a good sea view and ease of parking outside a great benefit.

What a lovely flat. Perfect location above Porthmeor beach and with its own parking space and small courtyard.

A basic yet authentic apartment with everything you need.

Lovely cosy flat in a great location with a parking space directly outside

A light and airy apartment with a relaxing feel. The location is great for all St Ives has to offer and the views are fabulous.

Comfortable accommodation in a perfect location for body boarding and accessing the town.

We really enjoyed our stay at Rough Seas. The location is excellent, being only a few minutes walk to town and Porthmeor beach. We loved walking down the hill in the morning for breakfast pastries and coffee. As per other reviews, some of the fixtures are a little dated, but this definitely didn’t affect our enjoyment of the property. The huge parking space definitely took away any hassle of finding somewhere to park after a day out, however we were mostly happy to stay within St Ives, having everything on our doorstep!

Perfect as normal

Property accurately described and the location was fantastic. However, we were unprepared for the lack of privacy. Being on the ground floor where everyone accessing the other two accommodations walked directly passed the side living room window, and the patio area was also passed by/visible to other residents.

Our family enjoyed a lovely 3 night stay in Rough Seas Apartment. It is a great base for St Ives and benefits from free parking. It is a good value for money but is a little tired around the edges.

We enjoyed everything about Rough Seas Apartment, especially the location! We loved it so much that we’ve already booked again for next year!

Rough Seas Apartment was good value for money. A clean and comfortable apartment with sea views from the front. A good base to explore the surrounding areas.

Rough seas is in the perfect location being just 5 minutes walk to the harbour with the added bonus of a private parking space. Loved sitting at the table for breakfast looking out at the sea view too.

A very tired property in need of updating

Although the location and the parking space were definite plus points, the flat feels quite tired and in need of some TLC ( eg the shower wasn’t much more than a dribble) . Struggled with working out the water heater and the night storage heaters.

Impressed with the quick response from Aspects staff to points I raised

Rough Seas is a very well situated flat with lovely sea views & it's own parking space directly outside. Perfect for holidays in beautiful St Ives

Ideal car park spot in front of the apartment. Few minutes walk to the beach. Walking distance to the harbour. No frills but clean and comfortable. Great base for exploring St Ives. Would definitely book again.

Great location and having a parking space is a must in St Ives. The front room and bathroom are tired and could do with updating particularly the front room furniture. Overall had a great stay.

Situated in an excellent position close to the town centre, albeit down (or up) a fairly steep hill. The flat has everything you need and is reasonably comfortable, although the beds as very comfortable. Having a parking place right outside is a major plus. The facilities in the flat are rather basic, but they are adequate for a week on holiday. A very good place to stay if you want to be close to the centre of St Ives and don't mind the hills.

Very nice stay and location Lovely views Just needs updating then would be amazing but overall a nice Apartment and the parking outside is certainly a plus point Aspects holidays very helpful and welcoming Thankyou for your kindness Cathy

Very tired apartment, needs updating especially Kitchen & bathroom.

Location and parking is great but property could do with better maintenance.

Fantastic holiday in this comfortable, clean and airy apartment above Porthmeor Beach with added bonus of good sized allocated parking space right in front of property :)

Lovely apartment in a good position with great parking.

Perfectly situated small flat with a parking space, Clean and comfortable

Excellent refurbishment which gives feeling of being light, airy and spacious . The location is great being within easy reach of all parts of St Ives. The parking is a bonus being right outside the property and large enough to accommodate a large family saloon with room to spare. I suspect it would take a large estate.

Great to be able to park in front of the apartment. Brilliant location especially for visiting the Tate and Barbara Hepworth. Sparkling clean, newly decorated apartment.

Excellent holiday again staying at Rough Seas. Cannot beat the location of this property being close to the Tate and therefore within a few minutes walk of Porhmear Beach . Fore Street is also a short walk as is the Barbra Hepworth museum. Added bonus is the parking space right outside the house. You can comfortably fit a large family car in the space , which for St Ives is a big plus. Just one thing left to say and that is we cannot wait for May to come when we will stay at Rough Seas again.

Location is good, parking is a bonus but the facilities are so basic. There's no dishwasher or tumble drier and you can't leave the main bedroom window open at night because it's a patio door and there is open access from the front of the property. Needs modernising throughout.

We have stayed at Rough Seas many times and although the property is basic, it is clean and adequate. There are two reasons which bring us back 1) location - situated just behind the Tate, it is a short walk to both the beach and the town 2) parking - designated parking right outside the property and large enough to accommodate our Mercedes E class comfortably.

This appartment though basic, is perfectly adequate, clean, and well maintained!.. Although one has a climb up from the town and beaches, it is only a relatively short one, and no trouble to most people. Although we are pensioners and the weather was very hot,we found the slight exercise did us good!.. We would recommend it to anyone wanting reasonably priced accommodation for a week or two!!....

Excellent cottage, everything you need. Very clean and comfortable with a good parking spot right outside. Excellent location.

A small apartment, but perfect for our needs. Superb location for all but the Porthminster beach side of town and the outside parking area was simply the best ever - absolutely the most accessible and useful parking we've ever experienced in St Ives. Be prepared for some steep walks back to the apartment from town, but they're not too bad. I definitely recommend this place and would love to stay there again.

Lovely apartment, perfectly located for us and convenient parking space. Was very kind and thoughtful of the owner to leave milk, tea and coffee out for us when we arrived

Welcome parcel on arrival of tea, coffee, washing up liquid etc was much appreciated. Beds nice and comfy and lovely clean linen. Distance to town centre good although tricky with the pushchair as so high up.
