Harbour walks from an apartment with wood burner

St James Rest is a two-bedroom apartment in a converted section of a Grade II listed Sea Captain's House, 500 metres from St Ives town, the main railway station and St Ives car park. Refurbished and reopened in July 2021, it sleeps four across a king en-suite bedroom, a bunk-bed cabin room, and a sofa bed in the lounge.

The apartment has its own front and rear entrances, a wood burner, and an outdoor terrace for bistro-style dining in fine weather. EV charging and accessible parking are both available on site, alongside free WiFi, a washing machine, a work desk and a fully equipped kitchen. Bus and taxi links into town run regularly for guests who prefer not to walk. The property does not accept dogs. Check-in is from 3pm, checkout by 10am.

Porthminster Beach is a 5-minute walk, with St Ives harbour beach 500 metres away and Porthmeor Beach 800 metres. The main St Ives car park is 2 minutes on foot, and Carbis Bay is 1.2 miles by road. St Michael's Mount is 8.7 miles away, and Land's End Airport is 17 miles.

Best for families wanting a self-contained apartment close to the station and Porthminster Beach, with EV charging included. Less good for anyone bringing a dog, since pets are not accepted here.
