About 6 Sunnyside
In light of the COVID-19 virus, we want to reassure you that this St Ives self-catering property has an extremely thorough clean plus disinfection of hard surfaces and soft furnishings after each guest stay. Please note that until we can resume normal service, check in time is 5pm and check out is 9am. We could say a lot about 6 Sunnyside but we’re not sure if you will be able to concentrate or draw your eyes away from the absolutely jaw-dropping views right from the living room. Being the top floor of the Sunnyside building (aptly named by the way), you literally have a bird’s eye view of St Ives harbour stretching around St Ives Bay to Hayle estuary and the iconic Godrevy Lighthouse. Pretty spectacular if you ask us…
6 Sunnyside is all on one level after you've walked up a
couple of flights of steps (one external and one covered), with two
bedrooms both boasting sea views and two bathrooms. One of the
bedrooms can either be a 6ft super king size bed or made up as a
twin bedroom - whatever suits your needs. One of the bathrooms has
a bath with shower over (which also doubles up as a utility area
with a washing machine) and the other has a shower. The kitchen has
everything you should need on holiday with its own special views
over the harbour and the wharf front, so your most difficult choice
will be to eat in or eat out! If you choose to eat in, the dining
table extends to seat 4 easily with comfy chairs for
all.
6 Sunnyside is furnished and finished to offer you and your
loved ones an instant and warm welcome with a comfy sofa in the
living area (which is a sofa bed and can sleep one extra person)
and (back to those views!) two recliner chairs positioned perfectly
to take in the ever changing scene of the busy St Ives harbour
beach. If you fancy watching a film of your choice on catch up or
if you have a Netflix or Amazon account, the 32'' Smart TV means
you can do exactly that.
A perfect place to have your main holiday of the year or a
quick spur of the moment getaway - 6 Sunnyside is worth a visit all
year round. A real bonus to 6 Sunnyside is having your own
allocated parking space which is a 5-8 minute walk away from the
apartment.

The apartment was amazing; beautifully decorated with all the conveniences of home yet the little extras that make a place special. The location is fantastic with the most gorgeous views of the harbour across to Porthminster beach and the town itself just a minute's walk from the apartment. We had a truly relaxing holiday, made easier by the brilliant service provided by orange roofs. We would highly recommend.

The property was lovely and had everything you needed. The views were amazing especially stood out on the balcony watching the fireworks on New Year's Eve.

The apartment was sparklingly clean, well equipped, had extremely comfortable beds, amazing views, in a superb position. We loved it! Orange Roofs offer an exceptional personal service and I would recommend them unreservedly.

Many thanks for giving us the chance to spend such a nice time at this perfect place. We missed nothing and you have been a very kind and caring partner for us. That made our stay dreamlike! I'm sure all the other guests feel the same.

We were kept up to date at all times with all the pertinent information right up until the day of arrival - very useful (included things that we didn't know that we would find useful !)

Flew 21 hours from Australia just to stay here at No 6 Sunnyside. Well worth the trip, weather great, accommodation superb, views to die for!!!

We have stayed in many nice apartments during our travel in Europe, but this is the best so far!
The combination of the well equipped interior, (including perfect wifi and comfortable beds) the amazing view makes this apartment a top scorer. And of course two other things: the apartment lies in fabulous St Ives. Secondly Orange Roofs is easy to get in contact with and you get quick answers from people with local knowledge.
For our next visit to St Ives and Sunnyside 6 we only have two wishes: warmer weather and a shoehorn.

Sunnyside 6 is a wonderful flat. Every morning we would drink our coffee,look out the window and watch the activities in the harbour. Restaurants and beaches were within walking distance.The flat is perfectly equipped with all mod cons but with many personal touches.The flat doesn't have a parking space but we bought a Rover ticket for the week which was valid for 2 nearby public longterm car parks and also car parks in other towns.Finding a space might be a problem in the high season.Many thanks to Orange Roofs, who looked after us very well. The directions to the flat were perfect, we were very grateful for restaurant tips and other bits of advice. We really appreciated the phone call on our check-in day to inform us that we could occupy the flat earlier because it had been cleaned.Also,when we had a problem understanding how the towel radiators worked, our email was answered promptly. We enjoyed every minute in Sunnyside and hope to return!!

6 Sunnyside took our breath away as soon as we entered the apartment. The view from the living room window on to the harbour and beach was amazing.
Orange roofs were very helpful and prompt when we wanted to change the double bed in one of the bedrooms to two single beds.
The apartment is brilliantly situated for parking, the beaches and all the shops and restaurants. The decor is thoughtful and the apartment was very clean.
The rental was a bit more than we would normally pay but definitely worth it. I would highly recommend this apartment.

Fab apartment, fab location:
The apartment was spacious and comfortable. Its 3rd floor position meant there was a fabulous view overlooking the harbour, but it was also very private as you weren't overlooked - at all. Its location was great - right at the end of the wharf.
It was well stocked; lots of crockery, cutlery and utensils; washing up liquid, laundry tablets etc - all the stuff that you think isn't important until it isn't there! We would definitely stay there again.

6 Sunnyside fulfilled all of our expectations. We had a very varied weather, to say the least, but we enjoyed every minute of our stay. When you have this stunning view in front of you it doesn’t matter if it’s raining or if there is a storm outside. We really loved sitting in front of the big windows and watch the tide. St Ives is really a cozy and picturesque little town with it’s small shops and cafes. We made some day trips to explore more of Cornwall and it’s really easy to take the bus from here.
The apartment is well equipped and clean, the only thing we missed was a shoehorn
and the bed in the smaller bedroom is a little bit narrow for two persons. However the beds were comfortable and we slept well.
We can really recommend this apartment and recommend Orange Roofs. All the information given has been excellent.
We can also recommend Lisa Robertson at Sandy Toes who arranged a delicious hamper waiting for us when we arrived late at night.

THE HOLIDAY AND APARTMENT EXCEEDED ALL OUR EXPECTATIONS. WE WILL DEFINATELY BE BOOKING FOR NEXT YEAR. WE WILL ALSO RECOMMEND USING ORANGE ROOFS TO OUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS. ALL THE INFORMATION WE RECEIVED FROM THEM HELPED US TO ENJOY OUR HOLIDAY. I WOULD ALSO RECOMMEND PURCHASING A ROVER WEEKLY TICKET FOR CAR PARKS OWNED BY CORNWALL COUNCIL. THIS HELPS WHEN VISITING OTHER TOWNS.
THANK YOU ORANGE ROOFS.

we had a wonderful stay in 6 Sunnyside it really is a special place to be. The view is so fantastic, we really did spend a lot of time watching the tide come and go.
my husband particularly enjoyed watching the boats as an old sailor himself!!
the apartment is well equipped and organised and clean.
The location is perfect for walking into town or galleries or the gin bar! but not so near the pubs for late night revellers.
We did enjoy our stay and hope to come again to this special spot which seemed to get most of the sun in the whole of St. Ives with a harbour and sea view, perfect. Thank you.

What a wonderful apartment. Spacious, spotless and a tad quirky. Despite snow, sleet, rain, drizzle - and a bit of sunshine, we loved every minute of our stay. It was very hard to drag ourselves away from the stupendous views. Thanks again to Sam and Ross for a wonderful week. see you in 2019!

Stayed her for a week in August with our two teenage daughters. It's a wonderful flat with the most amazing views, literally left right and centre. Comfortable with everything you could possibly need and spotlessly clean. Orange Roofs realty do go the extra mile to make your holiday special. Thank you.

I used five holiday flats in St Ives before discovering 6 Sunnyside, and it is by far the best. Proof of this is that I keep re-booking it! I am very grateful to the owners for the high standard of facilities in the flat, and for the fact that it has the sort of character and extra touches you tend only to find when the owners use a property for themselves. The location is very convenient and the views are absolutely superb - sometimes you just want to sit and stare. Any drawbacks? Just one. perhaps this is not the perfect flat for those with mobility problems as access is via two flights of stairs.

This must be the best place to stay in St Ives!! Beautifully light and very tastefully decorated, we had to force ourselves to go out because the view was so spectacular! We spent an hour before breakfast watching the view and came straight back after our evening meal to watch again! It is also so conveniently located that we didn't need to use our car for 3 days running. We left it on the Island carpark, looking out to the sea! Thanks, Orange Roofs, for the useful restaurant tips, all of them served superb food, and thanks to the owners, Gill and David, for letting us use their immaculate flat. We hope to be back!

6 Sunnyside....what a gorgeous place!! Just returned from a 1 week Easter break as a family of 4. We LOVED the apartment. The location was absolutely spot on, was very comfortable and brilliantly equipped.
But...THAT VIEW!! We adore St Ives anyway, but sitting out looking over the harbour every day was incredible.
We're already hoping to stay here again as we really did love it.
Massive thanks to Sam and the housekeeping team as well who kindly arranged some extras for me for our arrival.
Brilliant service, and have already recommended Orange Roofs and the apartment to multiple people.
Thank you so much!

I've recently returned from my 5th stay (in 3 years) in this fabulous apartment. The views are incredible and the apartment is light and bright, very comfortable and spotlessly clean. It really is my favourite place to stay and I can't recommend it highly enough. I've been back at home (and I really love my home by the sea in Kent) for 10 days now and, as usual, I am missing St Ives and 6 Sunnyside very much indeed.

The acid test is, would you come back? Well, I just keep re-booking 6 Sunnyside from year to year (having tried five self cater places in St Ives previously). The flat is very well furnished and equipped, spotless and with attractive artwork on the walls. Orange Roofs are very helpful and responsive. Climbing the stairs could be an issue for some - but the main problem I found was persuading myself not to spend too long sitting in the lounge with that spectacular view over the harbour!

We all loved the apartment and the views - it was like watching a moving picture with the sea out, then in, the morning overcast then beautifully sunny, the bright morning sunlight then the warm golden evening light. We ate at the apartment a lot because essentially we probably had one of the best views of the harbour! We were quite troublesome guests - we managed to lose the apartment key whilst kayaking and left some stuff behind - but nothing was too much trouble. Thoroughly recommend - lovely place and lovely people to deal with.

This apartment is spectacular! Everyone mentions the views, which are amazing, but the property is too.it is clean, well equipped and very comfortable. Lovely to sit and watch the harbour with a glass of wine after being gout. The only disadvantage because it's the top floor of 3 you have to climb the stairs, so someone disabled or ailing in some way it would not be good(unless you talk nicely to the taxi driver to help you with your cases) The kitchen would benefit from an extra cupboard for food as most supermarkets will deliver, but we ate out most evenings so not a problem for us. Cellar Bistro the best place we ate in Fore St, with their freshly caught Hake excellent. The apartment is situated close to the shops and restaurants and if you just want to chill the little beach in front of you is ideal if you don't feel like walking far. Orange Roofs were very helpful sending us lots of useful information before we arrived and on arrival. Lisa from the Sandy Toes Hampers provided us with a breakfast hamper for a small charge which was delicious! All in all, I would recommend staying here and give it ten out of ten
