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.

Very clean. Lovely family vibe and great views.

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.

We had a lovely stay in Mor Gwel. I will miss my morning coffee looking out at the fantastic sea view. Comfortable apartment, great having 2 bathrooms and plenty of bedroom space. Of course the added bonus of a parking space is always welcome in St Ives. We would definitely stay in Mor Gwel again.

Great location and stunning views. Be prepared for a steep climb back to the property every time but that's St Ives pretty much everywhere and if that's an issue certainly suggest looking for somewhere low down near harbor.

Mor Gwel was a fantastic base for our group of 5 whilst attending a wedding in St Ives. The property is not huge, an apartment on the second floor but this provided us a good base for the weekend and fitted us 5 comfortably. The kitchen is small but equipped, although we did not cook any extravagant meals. The views were great! But be warned, its quite a climb up from the main town. Overall the property was clean and the bathrooms had an excellent powerful shower.

Stayed in Mor Gwel from Easter Sunday and had to contend with a storm as well as sun, this made for some spectacular views from Mor Gwel.
As the property is a converted roof it can be perilous to those over 6 feet tall and is not that suitable for people with mobility issues.
The property was comfortable, clean, well equipped and had plenty of natural light.
We really enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to recommend it.

The ceiling height in Mor Gwel and being on the second floor may not suit everyone, but we try to show this all as clearly as possible within the website photos and description, and there are still plenty of areas where you can stand and walk around with enough head room. Whilst head room is restricted in several areas, being up on the top floor gives you the huge advantage of those spectacular views. We are glad that it worked well for you, and you enjoyed your time here. We hope to see you back again soon. Tanya, Customer Services
Lovely stay in a beautiful location. Could sit and watch the sea all day from the living room. Good location for town and beaches, great to have a parking space. Lovely welcome pack of coffee, tea and biscuits, plus milk in the fridge.
Mrs Ashford Apr 2023
Perfect family apartment. 3 good sized bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and extremely well equipped kitchen including washing machine and dishwasher, ideal for self catering. Included parking, which is an essential for us. Fantastic views and a lovely walk into town, takes around 5-10 mins. Unsuitable if you have mobility issues as 2 flights of stairs up to apartment, and very steep uphill walk from town back to apartment. Wonderful stay - would definitely stay there again. Thank you

We are glad you enjoyed this lovely property. The walk back and stairs may not suit everyone, but are totally worth it for those great views, the on-site parking and fantastic communal outside space. If you don't fancy the walk back up though, the number 2 bus from town going to the leisure centre takes 5 mins and will drop you very close to the apartment. Customer Services
