Shopping in St Ives
From books to jewellery to freshly made food, shopping in St Ives is a Cornish tradition thanks to the cobbled streets and independent shops that line them.
1 Porthminster Court is a lovely apartment, tucked a short walk away from the scenic coastal path that runs between St Ives and Carbis Bay. Sleeping up to four guests with two bedrooms, this ground floor apartment offers comfortable furnishings and is well equipped for dining in and taking advantage of fresh produce from the local delis, shops and bakeries. There is an allocated parking space and the balcony is perfect for sitting out on morning, noon, and night, overlooking the sea and the three miles of golden sands of Hayle beach. Leave your car at home and head into St Ives for cocktails, dinner, or to watch the sun set over Porthmeor beach, or spend your days heading out on a boat trip to Seal Island after some family fun in the arcade. Perfect for any time of year, 1 Porthminster Court is a lovely holiday home from home and is sure to be one you'll be returning to year after year.
Please Note: There are refurbishment works taking place to a building located 2 properties away, parallel to 1 Porthminster Court. This does not impede on the beautiful sea views, but can be seen from the lounge window and balcony when looking left towards the building having work done. Due to the proximity and nature of work, this has the potential to be heard at times. Please contact our Customer Services Team with any queries before booking.
multiple external steps leading from the parking space up to the communal entrance, through the apartment door into:
electric hob and oven, fridge with freezer compartment, slimline dishwasher, washing machine, sofa, two occasional chairs, TV, dining table with four chairs. Sliding patio doors leading to balcony with outdoor furniture and sea views. Door to hallway with doors to:

Lovely location with a great view both day and night. Easy access to the coastpath for walking into St Ives or Carbis Bay, our small dog really enjoyed the freedom. Convenient parking space beside the property makes everything easy and convenient. Everything we needed for a comfortable enjoyable stay.

Many of our holiday cottages in Porthminster boast magnificent sea views and are mere moments from the soft sands and turquoise waters of the beach. Whilst the vibrant heart of St Ives harbourside is just a short walk away. Porthminster is perfectly placed for an unforgettable family holiday by the sea. Read more about holidays in St Ives here.
Indulge in lunch with a view at Porthminster Beach Cafe.

An excellently maintained and comfortable apartment. The views of the bay are fantastic and Porthminster Beach is only a 10min walk away. We thoroughly enjoyed our week and will definitely return next year. It was really great to be able to walk into St Ives yet stay outside of the hubble and bubble of this very busy seaside town in August!!

Lovely apartment with breathtaking views.
Mrs Sanders Aug 2024
We had a really memorable week staying at Portminster Court. The owners have clearly put alot of thought in to making this a beautiful holiday let which we will hopefully return to. The kitchen is very well equipped and the bathroom is lovely. The location for us was perfect with a 20 minute walk into St Ives town (the first beach is only ten minutes away) which is a wonderful place to explore with interesting shops, pubs, cafes and bars and of course The Tate gallery. It was a similar time to walk to the beautiful Carbis Bay Beach. The sea view from the lounge and balcony are to die for. We spent many an hour looking across the bay to Godrevy and the surrounding beaches. We enjoyed watching the local Goldfinches, spotting seals in the sea and following the many cliff top footpaths. There are so many beautiful places a short drive away to explore, a week was not long enough!

This is a great find! Loved the location and excellent seaview. Loved the roominess and airiness of the living room. Loved the tranquility of the location. Kitchen appliances all really good. Great to have an air fryer and coffee machine. Very clean and well maintained. Loved the comfy outdoor chairs.

Excellent property with superb views and very easy access to the coastpath.The property is much bigger than it looks in the photos.
Mrs Gould May 2024
A wonderful stay at Porthminster Court. Just what we were looking for. Excellent location, walking distance to St Ives and Carbis Bay. The apartment was very homely and welcoming. Excellent Views. Very quiet. Lovely and clean. Couldn't fault a thing and would definitely return! Missing the views already.
Mrs Dickinson May 2024
We all had a lovely stay at 1 Porthminster court.
Views across the bay were amazing.
Very comfortable & homely. Very clean too!
Parking space with approx 20 steps up to access the property.
Only 10 minutes walk to Porthminster beach & onto St.Ives & Carbis Bay was 10 mins via costal path. Branch line train passes down in front of property, but it wasn’t a problem.
Supermarket nearby.
Already booked for next year.
Can’t wait to return.

We are delighted to hear that you liked the property. It is a bit of a walk up from the town and beaches, so may not suit everyone, but we like to think, (and it sounds like you agree) that it is worth it when you get there, with those lovely views! Tanya, Customer Services
We enjoyed our stay at Portminster Court. It was peaceful, with lovely sea views with a 10 minute walk to the best beach in St Ives and direct access to the coastal path.
Mr Fretwell Jul 2023
Loved our holiday, would definitely stay again. Close to both St Ives and Carbis Bay
Mr Woods Jul 2023
Location absolutely amazing. When we stayed in July, it was so quiet, that we felt relaxed from day one of our holidays. Views fantastic.
Mrs Clarke Jul 2023
We had an fantastic holiday in St ives booked through aspect holidays. The service we recieved was excellent. The directions provided by aspect holidays to get to the property were spot on. The view from 1 porthminster was breath taking with sea views. The apartment was clean, spacious and well equipped. We were welcomed with a bottle of wine and milk in the fridge, biscuits and coffee machine. The location of 1 porthminster is excellent in a quiet and peaceful location but in easy reach and walking distance of carbis bay and also st ives. We will be using aspect holidays again.
Ms Rowley Jun 2023
A lovely apartment in a fantastic location, such a beautiful view and in walking distance to St Ives Town and Porthminster beach which was great.
Mrs Twinn Jun 2023
A short walk from town this is a great property to relax away from the hustle and bustle of St Ives. On inclement days simply pour yourself a glass of wine and watch the weather roll along the coast or the waves crashing on Godrevy from the comfort of the lounge. Just a stones throw from the coastal path where we could see seals just bobbing around in the coves below. This was a great find and would highly recommend.
Mrs Mouland Nov 2022
Lovely apartment with wonderful sea views and great to have the ease of parking. You can walk into St. Ives or Carbis Bay from the Apartment. The apartment was clean, comfortable & warm and the beds were comfy. Nice addition of a welcome pack. Kitchen could do with a few more utensils and there is no hairdryer, however we would love to stay again and would recommend this apartment as a great place to stay.
Mrs Hibbert Nov 2022
We liked the location and the light and bright sitting room with fantastic views. A few more finishing touches and improvements to the bedrooms, sitting room layout and kitchen provision would have made for a more comfortable and luxurious stay.
