10 Porthmeor Square Apartment

A ground-floor apartment in the heart of St Ives, 10 Porthmeor Square occupies a converted fisherman's loft with whitewashed stone walls, wooden beams, and a walled courtyard garden with outdoor dining. The apartment sleeps up to 4 in one bedroom - a king-size bed plus a single and a pull-out trundle beneath it - with 1 bathroom, a dishwasher, a washing machine, and WiFi throughout.

The open-plan living space keeps the original architectural character intact: exposed stone, timber beams, and a compact but well-equipped kitchen. The walled garden adds a private outdoor dining area that is genuinely uncommon for a town-centre property at this address level.

Porthmeor Beach - St Ives' Atlantic-facing surf beach with RNLI lifeguards and surf hire on site - is 100 metres away. Tate St Ives, one of only four Tate gallery sites in the UK, is the same short walk. The harbour beaches of Porthgwidden and St Ives Harbour Beach are around 400 metres in the other direction. Dogs are welcome.

**Best for:** Couples or small groups of up to 4 who want a town-centre base with a surf beach at the door, strong cultural offer from the Tate and Barbara Hepworth Museum, and dog-friendly access. **Less good for:** Anyone needing a car on-site or groups larger than 4.
