Skydeck at The Liner, St Ives Sea Views

Skydeck at The Liner sits directly on the beachfront in Falmouth, despite the "St Ives Sea Views" the merchant listing still carries in its name - this apartment is on the Gyllyngvase seafront, not in St Ives. Tinners Stays' top-floor flat sleeps four across two en-suite bedrooms, and is rated 9.7 from 24 guest reviews, with 10/10 for cleanliness.

Large glass doors open from the open-plan kitchen and living space onto the private "SkyDeck" balcony, which holds its own dining set for meals outdoors. The master bedroom has direct balcony access and its own en-suite bathroom; the second double bedroom sits alongside a separate laundry room and a spa facility within the building.

Gyllyngvase Beach is roughly 200 metres from the front door, close enough to reach on foot in a couple of minutes. Swanpool Beach is 800 metres away and Castle Beach 900 metres, with Pendennis Castle 1.2 miles inland. Trelissick Garden is a 9.9-mile drive for a day out.

Best for a couple or small family wanting direct beach access and sea views from every main room. Less good for anyone expecting a St Ives postcode - this is a Falmouth apartment, and the merchant listing title is misleading on that point.
