The interior is simple with white walls, work from local artists and pine floorboards. A window seat is hewn into the granite in front of the large double glazed window, the changing scenery is fascinating, an old seal, dolphins, cormorants, and sailing boats.

There is a fully sprung sofa-bed, suitable for every day use, and a television with freeview and dvd player. The dining table has seating for 2/4 people, from which an open spiral staircase leads to the kitchen...

On entering 1 Lower Saltings you are immediately struck by the outstanding view over Porthmeor beach. Unusually the whole length of the open plan room follows the line of the beach, providing uninterrupted views from every angle. Porthmeor is famous for its beautiful sunsets and the large window seat is the perfect spot for catching the final few rays.

The apartment is situated in the conservation part of St Ives, down the slipway and through the double wooden doors into the courtyard, to one side is the rare addition of a parking space. Walk through the stable door and into that perfect view.

Furnishings are warm and welcoming, underfoot you will find a real slate floor. The kitchen contains all the mod cons you will need during your holiday. Whilst the central heating and thick granite walls will keep you warm and toasty, fantastic to watch the stormy seas whilst snuggled up inside.
