Overview
Description
Lighthouse LookoutLess than 1-minute walk to the harbour beach.
Less than a minute's walk from St Ives harbour beach, The Old Sail Lofts is a characterful building offering two stylish two-bedroom apartments—ideal for a relaxing coastal escape.
The apartments provide a peaceful retreat while keeping you close to everything that makes St Ives special. The harbour, sandy beaches, independent shops, galleries, cafés, and restaurants are all just a short stroll away, yet the property is tucked into a quiet spot away from the busiest streets.
Each apartment sleeps up to four guests and is thoughtfully furnished to feel like a true home from home, with all the modern amenities you’d expect. It’s a perfect base for couples, families, or friends looking to explore Cornwall, enjoy seaside walks, or simply unwind by the ocean.
About Lighthouse Lookout
Lighthouse Lookout is a charming top-floor apartment with glimpses of the harbour lighthouse and sea from the kitchen window. It features a spacious main bedroom with a king-size bed, along with a cosy second bedroom nook with a raised double bed to allow for storage beneath (bed accessed by two steps).
The loft-style living space is bright and airy, combining a comfortable lounge with a well-equipped kitchen and a beautiful oak dining table—ideal for relaxed meals. The bathroom includes a bath with a powerful overhead shower.
Set within the historic Old Sail Lofts building, the apartment retains plenty of original character, including slightly wonky beams and charming quirks that reflect its heritage. Inside, the space is calm, welcoming, and designed to make the most of its layout.
The kitchen window offers lovely glimpses of the harbour and lighthouse. Amenities include a Smart TV, dishwasher, washing machine, and everything needed for a comfortable stay.
Location & Access
Situated on Bethesda Hill, one of St Ives’ most charming cobbled streets, the apartment enjoys a central yet tucked-away position. From here, it’s just a short walk (less than one minute) down to the harbour and beach.
As is typical in this part of town, the property is not accessible by car. Access is via a short walk up a cobbled lane from the harbour, helping maintain its peaceful setting.
Parking
While there is no on-site parking, several convenient options are available:
Island Long Stay Car Park – 5-minute walk (approx. £26.30/week)
Barnoon Long Stay Car Park – 10-minute walk (approx. £26.30/week)
St Ives Rugby Club – 15–20-minute walk or shuttle bus (£7/day)
Many guests choose to briefly park at the harbourside to unload luggage before moving their car to a nearby car park.
For those travelling by public transport, the apartment is around a 15-minute walk from the train and bus station—making it a great option for a car-free getaway.

Perfect location and really gorgeous house
By Jodie on 28-Jul-2026A great stay! Perfect location and really gorgeous house. Very responsive and helpful host. Thanks so much.
It really has the best of both worlds
By Louise on 21-Jul-2026A fantastic stay at Emma's beautiful apartment. It really has the best of both worlds: so close to everything in St Ives yet in a tucked away, quieter location that means you get plenty of peace too. We loved the open plan kitchen/dining/sitting area - it was lovely and bright and we enjoyed being able to glimpse at the sea from the kitchen window. Everything was so tastefully decorated and comfortable. We'd definitely choose this lovely property as our St Ives base again!
Had the most incredible stay.
By Alex on 07-Jul-2026Had the most incredible stay. Beautiful property, close to everything we wanted, couldn’t have asked for more. Sad to be leaving, needed more than two nights here. Couldn’t recommend this place more. We will definitely be back!
