Home description
The startling feature of this apartment is its panoramic views across St Ives bay to Godrevy lighthouse and beyond. Whether you're in the mood to relax or get out and enjoy some fresh sea air, you're just seconds, (30 metres!) from lovely Porthgwidden Beach, the Island and quaint streets of Downalong. Ideal for winter and spring breaks; constant hot water, central heating and fresh white linen are included in the price. St Ives has something to offer all year round - Tate St Ives; renowned restaurants; numerous art galleries; coastal walks; great surfing and fishing and specialist shops.
You'll immediately feel at home in Beach Court, a stylish and contemporary self-contained ground floor apartment in a former artist's studio. Fully refurbished and modernised, it offers a comfortable sitting room, integrated kitchen and dining area, and a contemporary shower room.
Light floods into the apartment in the morning and evening, and is enhanced by the clean white interior and stripped original wooden flooring throughout. We've decorated it with original paintings and photographs by local artists, true to its origins as a 1960's studio.

The West Country / Cornwall region
It’s not surprising that The Guardian (14 July 2007) voted St Ives Britain’s best seaside resort in 2007. It has wonderful beaches and truly breathtaking scenery from the coastal paths. It’s an all year round resort so there’s always something going on. There is a wide range of pubs, excellent quality restaurants, unique shops and art galleries, showing work by local artists from the thriving and renowned art colony. The Tate St Ives is world renowned and attracts visitors throughout the year.
Porthgwidden Beach, which is 30 metres from the apartment, has retained the highest Blue Flag standard for water in the Clean Beach Guide, published in May 2009. The Lonely Planet Guide, published in June 2009, describes St Ives as "the perfect holiday heaven".
St Ives / Downalong area
The Tate St Ives is open all year round, as well as the Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden. St Ives Festival takes place in September, with art, music, dance and poetry to interest all ages.
The location of Beach Court is absolutely ideal for those who want to either spend the day on the beach, take the short walk five minutes into town, or to venture along the coastal path towards Carbis Bay or Zennor. There is a car park very close to the house - the Island car park, as well as a beach shop and high-quality beach cafe and restaurant on Porthgwidden Beach.

Guestbook for 1 Beach Court
"So, so sad to leave. We've had such an amazing time - gprgeous sunny days on Porthgwidden Beach, a lovely walk to Zennor, and lunch in the Tinner's Arms. Arrived home to a real treat - dolphins, seven of them in the bay! What a fantastic view the windows upstairs give." Becky and Jake, Scarborough
"What a fab place to chill out in and watch the world go by!" Emma, Bath
"The house was a wonderful base to draw in with no distractions. Blissfully starting the day - a cup of tea on the beach - something I will really miss. I can't wait to come back in August." Adrian, London
"What a wonderful week. We ventured over to the Isles of Scilly which were fantastic - hardly anyone around, so we had Tresco Gardens to ourselves! We saw the sunset at Cape Cornwall and had lovely meals at Porthgwidden and the Blue Fish - yum!" Nick and Nadia, London
"Thank you so much for a lovely week - my umbrella has stayed unpacked and the sun cream has flowed! Just what was needed :) Ah well... back to Yorkshire." Chris and Karen, York
