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.

The most perfect place
By Nicole on 02-Oct-2026This was the most perfect place, the location couldn’t have been better. Me and my partner had the best stay - we wished we were there longer. Emma was very friendly and helpful with clear instructions for check in and great recommendations from car parks to restaurants etc. The cleanliness was 10/10, couldn’t fault any of it. We are already planning to come back Thank you for having us!

By Martin on 21-Oct-2026Beautiful place in a perfect location. It felt so peaceful and quiet yet we were right in the centre of St Ives. On top of that, we were lucky with the weather! A really enjoyable stay.
We had a fantastic holiday in St Ives
By Thomas on 23-Sep-2026We had a fantastic holiday in St Ives. The holiday flat is in a great central location for exploring the city centre, and it's just a few minutes to the beautiful sandy beaches. The bedrooms are furnished in a practical and comfortable way, and there is a functional bathroom. The best part is the large kitchen-living room in the attic. The kitchen has everything you need for a relaxing holiday, and the sofa area with an armchair is super cosy. We really enjoyed our stay and can wholeheartedly recommend the property to anyone!
