Situated in a commanding position overlooking St Ives Bay, this garden level apartment has been thoughtfully designed and furnished to offer superb comfort and style. To ensure a relaxing stay, you can fall asleep to the sound of the sea in one of the luxury beds and wake up feeling refreshed and ready to explore St Ives town or the coastal footpath walks.
Spend the day pottering around the local shops and restaurants or try your hand at creating your own culinary masterpiece in the well-equipped kitchen, then enjoy with a glass of wine overlooking the gardens and out to the Atlantic Ocean. With each apartment having their own parking space within a secure gated area, exploring the rest of Cornwall can be as easy as pie. But if you want to leave the driving to one side during your holiday St Ives has everything on offer from a multitude of eateries, galleries and independent shops to the crystal blue waters of one of the five beaches on offer. All this is just a 10 minute walk from your apartment or from the landscaped gardens you can also join the coastal path where you can reach Carbis Bay, St Ives quieter neighbouring beach, within a very enjoyable half an hour walk. Whether it's a quiet spot to just watch the changing tides or taking to the waves on a board, staying at Morwenstow will mean you'll be spoilt for choice.

This property was spectacular. Looked exactly like the pictures. Impeccably clean, beautifully furnished and well appointed. This property made our stay in stunning St. Ives so much better. We spent every morning on the patio looking at the beautiful ocean and listening to the sea gulls. The garden terrace led straight to the path down to the beach. I will definitely stay here again.

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.

Mr Smith Jul 2024
Great location, a really luxurious apartment with everything you could wish for in terms of equipment.
Mr Gowry Jun 2024
Beautiful high end apartment, well equipped, great location down a (steep) path to Porthminster beach and equally close to Carbis Bay.
Mr Hughes Jun 2024
Loved everything about the apartment and location. Rarely do you find somewhere that far exceeds expectations but this was it! The complex is modern and beautifully maintained and the location is beautiful. We will return for sure.
Aspects were a dream to deal with so helpful and informative. Would recommend 100%
Mrs Smith May 2024
Wonderful stay in an amazing well furnished apartment overlooking Porthminster Beach. Everything was spotlessly clean and little touches very helpful with dishwasher and washing machine tablets and not forgetting the tea, coffee sugar and milk and the delicious Cream Tea Scones! Looking to book again next year.
Mr OAKLEY Jun 2023
Fantastic apartment. Great views even from this ground floor apartment and spotlessly clean. The car parking spaces are a decent size. Easy and quick to walk into St Ives if you are able to manage a fairly steep hill.
We had a lovely few days here.
Miss Dodson Oct 2022
Sea glass is a stunning apartment and ideally situated for walking into St Ives or Carbis Bay. Very high quality of finish throughout the apartment and Housekeeper Debbie is very helpful. Well place to explore the southwest of Cornwall
Mr Sainsbury Sep 2022
Great location.
Mrs Staniforth Sep 2022
A wonderful, luxurious apartment in a great location that is 5 mins from the beach. We will definitely be staying here again.
Miss Capstick Aug 2022
Sea glass is a delightful flat with a spacious outside patio that still has a great sea view. It is tastefully furnished and very comfortable with all the facilities you’d wish for. It is just worth nothing that the second bedroom is quite small.
Mrs Wright Jun 2022
We have just experienced yet another wonderful holiday in one of the Morwenstow Apartments in St Ives. This time we stayed in Sea Glass - which has the added benefit of a garden terrace to enjoy. All the apartments in this complex are stunning. Spotlessly clean, well equipped and furnished and every one has stunning views of the sea and surrounding area. They are all really beautful apartments and the setting is breathtaking. The apartments have the added benefit of free parking, which is an absolute plus in busy St Ives. Lovely coastal paths take you to either St Ives or Carbis Bay (another wonderful beach) and there are really lovely places to eat or sip a cocktail and watch the world go by. I couldn't recommend Morwenstow Apartments more - which is exactly why we keep coming back!
Mrs Buxton May 2022
We had a wonderful stay at Morwenstow Apartments in St Ives. The property is in a brilliant location, equipped to the highest standard and kept spotlessly clean.
We would have no hesitation returning to Morwenstow or any other property managed by Aspect Holidays based on our experience.
Would recommend without hesitation :-)
Mr Dewsbury Oct 2021
Lovely apartment & perfect location for coastal walks & local beaches
Mr Simpson Oct 2021

Mrs Ormerod Aug 2021
Beautiful setting and views are superb. Overall an excellent apartment.
Mrs Ashcroft Jul 2021
Beautiful property, immaculate inside, well located with great views across the bay and St Ives, great to have the groceries when we arrived.
Mr Roughsedge Jun 2021
Beautiful apartment, with lovely views and garden. Every appliance you could wish for. Only a short walk down to beach, but you need to be fit to make the return journey.
Mrs Buontempo May 2021
Fantastic accommodation - spotlessly clean, warm and convenient. The views from the lounge, patio and bedrooms are stunning ...... All the Aspects staff were really helpful and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you - we'll be back....
Mrs Dollins May 2021
By far the nicest appartment I've ever stayed in.
Mr COUSINS Nov 2020
Great apartment wonderful facilities for all ages. The views are spectacular and private parking included
Mr Kelly Oct 2020
Fantastic apartment! It was incredibly clean and very comfortable. The location is great with just a short walk to Porthminster beach and the view is amazing. Would definitely book again.
Mr Galvin Sep 2020
We have just enjoyed a wonderful stay in this apartment and would recommend it to anyone wanting to enjoy St Ives and the surrounding area.
It was beautifully fitted out and spotlessly clean.
The views from the terrace were stunning, allowing us to relax for the first time in several months. Thank you to everyone as Aspects for ensuring a safe and enjoyable holiday.
Mrs Stump Jul 2020
This apartment is modern, clean and very comfortable with views over the sea and ideally placed just up the hill from the town which is easily reached by foot, particularly if you enjoy walking. There is a large terrace with table and chairs to enjoy sitting outside and easy access to the rear and front of the apartment. The parking at the front is excellent providing adequate space for everyone. We had a thoroughly enjoyable holiday and would definitely stay here again.
Mrs Laird Sep 2019
Great location with peaceful outside space with an awesome sea view . Everything you need for a holiday and only a short walk to the beach and Town. Would definitely book an apartment there again.
Mr Ezard Aug 2019
This is a beautiful and well appointed apartment with lovely views. Debbie the apartments caretaker was very welcoming and friendly. We had a problem with the washing machine and Debbie came and was able to sort the issue out for us. The attention to detail of the apartment is exceptional. It is a little bit of a steep walk back from St Ives town to the apartment so may not be suitable for elderly guests. I would definitely recommend this apartment.
Mr Metcalf Jul 2019
I'll come again and again and again. I think that tells you everything.
Mrs. Sieder Jun 2019
Excellent location and view of St Ives Bay as soon as you walk through the door. A modern, stylish apartment that is a pleasure to stay in. Helpful and friendly service just a phone call a way. Would recommend the brand 'Aspects Holidays' as they have clearly selected properties in Cornwall that combine both charm and a modern appeal.
Mr Grigg Oct 2017
We had a wonderful relaxing week here with our newborn baby. The view from the terrace is gorgeous. It was an easy walk to Porthminster beach (and their very tasty cafe!) and on to St Ives. The coastal walks have stunning views as well. The apartment is well looked after, and so were we. We had a small problem with the kettle during our stay and it was replaced very quickly. Would happily stay here again.
Mrs Wharrie Oct 2016
Perfect spot, excellent views, good parking, anything you could want was in this apartment.
Mrs Murray Aug 2016
The property is stunning. The high quality of furnishings and equipment make this a really luxurious holiday. The location is unbeatable.
Mrs Evans Jan 2016
A good 15 minute walk from town, maybe more - uphill.
Mrs Butler Oct 2015
Reply from Aspects Holidays
Thank you for your comments. The Morwenstow Apartments sit perched above St Ives, making the most of those views overlooking the bay. As you rightly say, it involves an uphill walk back up to the property after a day in the town or at one of the stunning beaches of St Ives, so some may prefer to opt for a bus or taxi ride in if you don't fancy driving or walking. If you do walk though, I am sure you will agree that the scenery along the way certainly makes it worthwhile. Tanya, Customer Services.
Wonderful place.
Furnishings are lovely, very comfortable. Great location.
Mrs Clarke Oct 2015
Wholeheartedly recommend it - a fantastic apartment with beautiful views
Ms Pugh Sep 2015
We had a wonderful time staying at Seaglass, fantastic location just 5 minutes (downhill) to the beach with incredible views over St Ives and Godrevy. Can't wait until our next visit!
