Sea Fever

We knew from booking the holiday home it was going to be special but we were totally overwhelmed by how amazing Sea Fever and its location were. Everything in Sea Fever has been chosen to reflect the location and local businesses. We loved all the specially chosen artwork. We couldn't have picked a better location. Parking on your doorstep, three absolutely stunning beaches within walking distance and so many amazing restaurants and cafes. Thank you to the owners for sharing their piece of heaven with those fortunate to stay there. We would love to return soon.

The view over the harbour from the balcony is incredible. The property is very tastefully decorated, all the contents are of a high quality and it is spotlessly clean. Just a few roads up from the harbour is a great location. The only negative was the tight spiral staircases between floors which could be an issue for e.g. young children or anyone who is less mobile. Thanks!

Just back from an amazing week in Seafever.Everywhere felt crisp clean so we felt able to relax.It Is fitted out with top quality furnishings and fittings and is a very comfortable place to stay. The views from the balcony are fab. We loved it and will definitely be returning.

Sea Fever is one of the best holiday lets we have ever stayed in. It is in a perfect position overlooking the harbour and the balcony enhances the experience. It is beautifully appointed with top quality furnishings and kitchen equipment. The bathrooms had lots of quality towels. The whole place was comfortable and welcoming. We are visiting again next year when let's hope things will have settled down with the pandemic.

Well we are back from the most amazing week at sea fever in st ives. What a beautiful place it is. We loved every second of being there. So relaxing and that view is just incredible. The house it self is like home from home. There's everything you need and more in the kitchen with top of the range stuff. It's a perfect week away to just unwind and relax. We loved the beds they are so comfortable. Everywhere was spotless when we got there and could tell it had been cleaned from top to bottom. Sea fever is in the perfect location in at ives. Walking distance to the little beach at the front and all the shops and restaurants. I even walked my dog in my pjs most mornings on the beach it's that close. I would highly recommend sea fever, we will be back! I can't wait to come back to st ives and use orange roofs again. They have been great with our booking even through COVID. Thanks again for the most amazing week away. Just what we all needed. X

We were the first family to holiday in Sea Fever after lockdown & it was such a treat to get away to such a wonderful seaside property. Everything was sparkling clean so we were able to completely relax & enjoy the amazing views from the balcony & plenty of long walks with our puppy who loved his first holiday by the sea. This property is exceptionally well appointed & had everything we needed - a real home from home! Thank you to everyone at Orange Roofs who worked tirelessly to make our stay really special.

We have been here every year and I have lost count now. Beautiful views and all the comforts you need in such a snug cottage. I would like to praise Orange Roofs for their customer service before,during and after the holiday as all the girls there are brilliant. Next year already booked despite gails and wind this year. Thank you 5 star

Beautifully views and equipped to a high standard with everything you could possible need. Loads of Jo Downs which I love and great furnishings and art The property is over four floors and going from top to bottom and back up definitely gave my muscles a good work out. I was not sure about the spiral staircase but I soon got used to it One of the best properties we have ever stayed in - but then it was booked through Orange Roofs so i would not expect anything else Plenty of room and storage and it was great to have somewhere to bring our mini dachshund to give him a bit of a dust off downstairs in the utility room before going upstairs He loved the balcony and watching the birds on the roof opposite as we both did Great just to be able to open the doors and sit out or in and still have a view So relaxing just to be able to sit and look at the harbour. We even had a lifeboat launch one night and we had an impressive view - luckily just training All in all a great property is tastefully designed and decorated and supplied with high end equipment and attention to detail Definitely a home from home - loved it!!

Our first experience of booking with Orange Roofs was a really good one. Quick and easy booking and confirmation process and very comprehensive arrival instructions. Sea Fever is a lovely property, it is clean and well presented. Very well located close to all amenities and the use of permit parking within easy walking distance which is rare to find in this area of St Ives. The fabulous views from the kitchen sink/lounge/balcony and master bedroom are a real bonus!

Fantastic views across the bay, clean, modern and well equipped. Suitable for 2 couples as has 2 large en-suite bedrooms, both with sea views. The welcome pack of tea, coffee, milk, biscuits, Prosecco and a Sea Fever souvenir was well received. Highly recommended. Orange Roofs were also very helpful with lots of information before we arrived in St Ives

Sea Fever is wonderful! Quaint but still with some nice touches of luxury. The view of St Ives harbor is fantastic. The bed was comfortable. The furnishings were lovely and the art throughout the place is a nice touch. It’s close to everything with a short walk. Highly recommended!

Sea Fever has really made the most of its location. The views from sitting room and main bedroom are exceptional and the balcony is a real treat, the glass balustrade keeping the wind at bay, allowing us to enjoy the views whatever the weather. The house was spotlessly clean and all the equipment was top quality and in brand new condition. We couldn’t fault it and enjoyed a wonderful week’s holiday with our daughter and small dog.

Sea Fever is an amazing modern apartment with exceptional views of St Ives Harbour and beaches with the added bonus of the brilliant balcony feature. The location of Sea Fever is perfect and literally a couple of minutes walk to all shops, bars and restaurants as well as all of St Ives stunning beaches. The Orange Roofs team had catered for everything and the apartment was absolutely spotless on arrival.

This was a last minute booking for us and it was a great find. We visit St Ives several times a year and it always feels like coming home. Sea Fever was a charming contemporary cottage with all the home comforts and a spectacular view of the harbour and the ocean beyond.

Just awesome, best holiday ever home I've stayed in..

Following my review from our fabulous holiday at Sea Fever, I also wish to review Orange Roofs and say a big thank you for your wonderful service, which we found to be very friendly, extremely efficient and helpful. We can't recommend you enough and will certainly use you again in the future!

An exceptional property right in the heart of St Ives, with the galleries, shops, beaches and eateries right on your doorstep. We only used the car once on our weeks holiday as there is a train station within a 10 minute walk. We cannot fault this property, the wonderful views from the balcony, the light airy feel, the comfy beds, contemporary furniture, quality equipment and fittings, beautiful artwork and lots of little extra's. You will find it hard not relax here! We would definitely recommend this property and would love to return, but due to the nature of this property (being a four storey fisherman's cottage in a town centre) we struggled a bit with the two spiral staircases. Our dog as she was too scared to climb them, so we had to carry her up and down, which was a bit tricky as they are quite narrow. This may be a consideration for people with babies/young children or with mobility issues, although I am sure this would be the same with many of the properties in the heart of St Ives, where space is a premium, so don't be too out off by it as the property is wonderful in every other way!

We’ve been to St Ives 3 times now and this is definitely the best place we’ve stayed in. The cottage is beautifully finished and very well equipped. Location is perfect - Porthgwidden beach is about than 3 mins walk and Porthmeor is only a little further. The cottage is also close to 2 car parks which is handy! The team at Orange Roofs are super helpful and friendly and I would definitely recommend them and this cottage.

This is our 6th visit to St Ives and the best cottage yet! Supberb view, could sit and watch all day... Wonderful week's weather - lots of time on the beach, kayaking, surfing and the perfect place to stay. Will be back!!

This is our 4th stay and we absolutely love it! A 10/10 place to stay. We will never get tired of this place, and the view. We will be coming here for many years to come. Everything you could need is so close to hand, the weather this time was a bit indifferent but still did not spoil our holiday. We had the footy to watch in the evenings whcih helped with our planning of evening meals and drinks, pubs with TVs. The only downside is going home, but we will be back.

We first came to St Ives in 1978 and stayed in a B&B on Atlantic Terrace. The fishermen were still actually living here then and could be seen mending their nets on Smeaton's Pier. Things have certainly changed over the many years we have been coming here , but the magic has never altered. Sea Fever has enhanced that. The view alone is enough to want to return but the cottage itself is wonderful with every need catered for. Weather has been fabulous, and it has been a joy to watch the baby seagulls on the roof below. I know the gulls are a pain sometimes but give them a break, they are probably feeding hungry chicks! Back soon I hope!

We've had a wonderful time at Sea Fever. It is a perfect spot for Porthmeor beach and all the lovely art galleries. Mixed weather but it didn't matter. Top tips: Watch the seals at the end of Smeaton's Pier every evening about 6pm. Life drawing on Wednesday evening at St Ives School of Painting. Yellow canary for coffees, sandwiches and pastries! Hope to be back soon!

Wow, what a holiday! Who needs an aeroplane to find the perfect destination. Whilst browsing the net I wanted to find the perfect getaway that the whole family would enjoy (not an easy task trying to tick every box). I was swept along romanticising about the Cornish holidays I used to enjoy as a child. Then I came across Sea Fever in St Ives! That's the one!!!

We have stayed at Sea Fever many times, says it all, we keep coming back, excellent accommodation, stunning views, everything on the door step. (Beach, Shops, walks, restaurants.)Also the cottage has everything in it you need for a perfect holiday.

This beautifully well presented cottage, with stunning balcony views across the harbour and beach, is a must if you're planning a holiday in St. Ives. With its high end decor and well maintained facilities, I can't recommend it enough. We're currently enjoying our third stay here, and it's as good as ever!

We have stayed in many rentals in St Ives and this is right up there among the best. Everything is properly thought out and executed, the fixtures and furniture are high-quality, and it manages to be both contemporary and cosy. Both bedrooms have an en suite bathroom, but there is also a third bathroom/wetroom on the lowest level along with the laundry, with its own 'secret' entrance. So you can come in from the beach covered in sand, or a hike covered in mud, and clean up before entering the main part of the house. For some reason I found this immensely satisfying. The harbour view from the living room/kitchen and balcony is great, the view from the bedroom above is even better. This is a house one leaves with great regret and many happy memories.

We have stayed many times in St Ives in different types of accommodation but this has to be the best!! It’s so pretty, filled with gorgeous ornaments and fabulous pictures but so tastefully done, we stayed with another couple and it was so great to have our own ensuits but best of all the views are fabulous. We stayed for a Christmas break and to look out a the pier all lit up was magical. We will be back
