About 15 The Digey
15 The Digey has recently been renovated to create a luxury apartment in St Ives for two and offers allocated parking for 1 car. This beautiful coastal self-catering apartment is in the heart of St Ives and is within moments of beaches, restaurants, cafes, shops and galleries. 15 The Digey is located on one of the oldest streets in St Ives, giving you a true taste of living in a traditional fishing town. You’ll feel taken back in history as you stroll the cobbled streets of The Digey (pronounced Die-Gee). The location of the Digey means you are just a few minutes’ walk from the hustle and bustle of Fore Street, where there is a magnificent choice of shops, restaurants, galleries and coffee bars as well as Tarquin’s gin bar! The spectacular Porthmeor Beach is practically on your doorstep and a very pleasant stroll away, as are the other beaches of St Ives. The Tate Museum is just around the corner from this holiday apartment in St Ives so a perfect stop on the way to the beach to enjoy their fabulous art exhibitions followed by their Cornish cream teas with the best sea views ever! The owners of 15 The Digey kindly include 2 complimentary tickets to Tate St Ives so do give it a visit. *15 The Digey will accept 1 small dog (no more than 10kgs) from 11 October 2024 onwards.*
As you enter the *courtyard, which is a shared access area with other residents of the building just off The Digey, you will see your own private corner where the owners have created a cosy little corner for you suitable to sit at for a morning coffee or pre-evening cocktail. To enter the property from this point, you need to walk up an external flight of stairs to reach the front door, then once through the front door, you have a private set of steps before reaching your little bit of heaven. These stairs are moderately fair for you to negotiate with your luggage. As you reach the top, you'll step into the kitchen and living area with an interior finish that offers you a warm, luxurious and above all welcoming hug. To the left of the entrance, you'll find your double bedroom with super cosy bedding enveloping you into a snoozy embrace. The bedroom offers plenty of space and comfort for two guests to stay and enjoy, as well as a TV to be able to enjoy a late-night film or early morning news with some breakfast in bed. Whilst staying at 15 The Digey, you'll have a few in-house luxuries for the duration of your stay. These include bath robes, beach bags and a beach matt. Please note, as lovely as these items are, they must be left in the property on the day of your departure for others to enjoy.
The kitchen is fully equipped with a 5-ring gas hob, oven, microwave, dishwasher and washing machine as well as plenty of kitchen utensils in order to be able to enjoy home-cooked meals for the duration of your stay. You also have a dining table that can easily seat two. This open plan area leads on to your living room with its ocean colour scheme complimenting your beachy surroundings throughout the town, some of which you have rooftop views of! You have sea glimpses of Porthmeor from one side and the St Ives harbour on the other. The living area is kitted out for your comfort, whether you're having a break from the sun or a day sheltering from the rain and cold with a toasty wood burner. You have free WiFi and a Smart TV for some visual entertainment.
Your closest restaurant to 15 The Digey is almost directly opposite you and it is called Source Kitchen featured in the recent Rick Stein 'Cornwall' series. This addition to The Digey has been warmly welcomed as they serve delicious breakfasts, lunch and dinner. We'd recommend booking a table there and taking a very short walk across the cobbled road to sit and enjoy a leisurely meal before deciding whether you want to hit the beach or the town!
Porthmeor Beach, St Ives Harbour Beach, and Porthgwidden Beach are all within a few short minutes' walk from 15 The Digey as well as a handful of galleries such as The New Craftsman, Penwith Art Gallery, The Tate St Ives and Barbara Hepworth Museum. If you want a slice of luxury while learning to paint at St Ives School of Painting, the stroll takes no more than a minute to reach the school and Porthmeor beach while sipping your morning coffee bought from St Ives Bakery just moments down the cobbled lane of The Digey.
Guests staying at 15 The Digey are provided with 1 allocated parking space at St Ives Rugby Club which is a 20 minute walk from the apartment. Shuttle buses run during busier weeks and drops next to The Tate St Ives so just a couple of minutes from the apartment.
Please note: The sofa in the living room may sleep 1 extra person but by request only, please enquire with the Orange Roofs team.
To re-cap, 15 The Digey is a luxury self-catering apartment for couples in the heart of St Ives and is very close to St Ives' beaches, eateries and galleries. It has one bedroom and one bathroom. 15 The Digey is a family-friendly holiday apartment providing a travel cot and stair gate. Please note, guests must provide their own travel cot bedding and linen.
*Access notice: 15 The Digey is accessed via a common and shared open courtyard which is accessed off The Digey under an archway. The front door to 15 The Digey is not on The Digey itself and so guests do need to walk via the courtyard to get to the apartment.

Lovely apartment in the town. Quaint, cobbled streets, beautiful buildings. The apartment had everything we needed. Information was always given in a timely manner and everything was very simple to follow. A lovely place to stay in a beautiful part of the UK. Very helpful staff at the Orange Roofs team.

I spent a wonderful week in 15 The Digey. The location is fantastic, quaint and quiet, in the old part of St Ives snuggled into a courtyard and close to all the main attractions, cafes and shops etc. Everything I wanted to see and do was within easy walking distance, so ideal for anyone having a holiday without a car. When I arrived, it was lovely to walk into the apartment after a long, tiring journey to find it clean and welcoming. 15 The Digey is a lovely, relaxing place to stay, with its rooftop and sea views from all the windows. I would love to return to 15 The Digey one day. I thoroughly recommend Orange Roofs, as they are based locally in St Ives, are extremely efficient, responsive, caring and committed to ensuring that guests have a wonderful holiday. As a first time visitor to St Ives, I found all the up to date information about St Ives they provide very helpful. Thank you!

Our third year back at 15 the Digey and next year already booked. The place was as spotless and ever, it's in a great location either side of the harbour and Porthmeor beach. The Digey is a bustling street during the day but a different story in the evening meaning a peaceful sleep is guaranteed. The apartment has great views from both sides and has everything little detail you could think of catered for, the owners really have made it feel very homely and what more than that could you ask for!!!

Just had the best stay at 15 The Digey! such a beautiful
place to stay in the heart of St Ives. Everything you could want is

We had a wonderful stay at 15 The Digey in early September. It was very clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything we needed for our holiday. It's super centrally located for the shops, the harbour beaches and bars. I would highly recommend 15 The Digey and the team who look after it. They were very helpful and super responsive to messages. The stairs are steep so toddlers and those with mobility issues may struggle (that didn't impact us), other than that you'll have a comfy stay - with plenty of hot water after a day on the beach and a lovely comfy bed it was the relaxing break we needed. Thanks Sam and the team

This was our 4th stay at 15 The Digey, location is perfect for everything you could want to do in St Ives. The cottage is perfect, the dual aspect views are stunning. The cottage has everything you could need to make your holiday relaxing. Also, the team at OrangeRoofs are amazing, always respond and always super helpful. Big thank you to Victoria - the cottage was spotlessly clean when we arrived. We have had an amazing 2023 holiday.

Our second visit back to number 15 and we already can't wait to go for a third. The flat is so cosy and just beautifully done. The location couldn't be better and a lovely welcome pack. Can't recommend enough!

The booking process was easy and descriptions of rentals on the website were very comprehensive. Contact and information provided was great and fast. The check in process as well as all needed information handled through the Orangeroofs app was easy to use and provided all one needed in a single place. The apartment was exactly as advertised, there simply is nothing to add. The welcome items as well as the voucher as a cover for scaffolding that was still unexpectedly in place a great bonus. Having traveled in the UK frequently through multiple agencies this was the single best vacation rental experience we had. Thanks again for a great stay and we will definitely book again.

We stayed in 15 the Digey for the first time and were not disappointed. The recently refurbished apartment is spacious and bright giving you views both directions towards the harbour and Porthmeor beach. The apartment is open plan kitchen and living room with a comfy couch and dining area, with every kitchen utensils you could imagine provided. The apartment is ideally located right in the heart of St Ives but the street is quiet in the evenings putting you close enough to the shop and restaurants but also providing a quiet nights sleep. The owners have done a brilliant job on making this place very enjoyable to stay, so much so that we have already booked for next year and can't wait to be back.

Perfect place for 2 people to stay a week or a weekend, it's very relaxing. It is walking distance to the beaches and restaurants. The bubbles and scones were very welcome. I definitely would stay there if I come back to St Ives.

The stay at The Digey was very enjoyable. There was a good
deal of support from your team during the arrival stage and it was
made clear that should we need anything or have any questions there
would be support available. There were several welcoming notes left
for guests which were a nice touch, and a generous welcoming
pack.
There was a significant storm on our first night which fully
tested the windows. There was a note suggesting that these
sometimes needed packing to prevent droughts/ leaks etc and we also
saw a note that the owner plans to replace them. This will
undoubtedly make a big difference to comfort during the winter
period. I would say however that the heating was efficient and we
were able to stay warm during what was a cold weekend. We
appreciated a bath as well as a shower!
There is building work being carried out next door, and It
was somewhat awkward to negotiate the scaffolding to access the
property, but we found the builders apologetic and
approachable.
In all, a lovely stay - we would return. We actually forgot
to write a message in the guest book.

Fell in love with this apartment from teh listing photos and it is absolutely beautiful in person. So light, bright and fresh with sunlight streaming un through the windows and beautiful sea views from both sides. It truly feels like a home away from home and we are both deeply saddened to have to say goodbye. Thank you for creating such a beautiful apartment - the mattress has been a massive hit - SO comfy! Possibly the best mattress we've slept on ever! If (and I am sure we will) we come back to St Ives, we will return to 15 The Digey in a heartbeat. Thank you for a lovely stay.
