About 15 The Digey
Want to live the traditional St Ives way? 15 The Digey is located on one of the oldest streets in the heart of town, giving you a true taste of living in traditional fishing town. You’ll feel taken back in history as you stroll the cobbled streets to reach the courtyard just off the Digey, where you’ll find number 15 – your home for the week! The location of the Digey perfectly situates you just a few minutes’ walk from the hustle bustle of Fore Street, where many shops and restaurants are located and in the other direction you have the glorious Porthmeor Beach almost on your doorstep (just 350m!) and less than a ten minute walk away are the other beaches in St Ives.
As you enter the shared courtyard, you will see your own private corner where the owners have erected a screen for you, so that you're able to sit behind and peacefully enjoy your morning coffee or an evening drink. 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 an internal flight of stairs to climb. These stairs are moderately fair for you to negotiate with your luggage. As you reach the top, you'll enter the kitchen and living area with an interior finish that offers you a warm and welcoming entry. To the left of the entrance you'll find your double bedroom with its bamboo bed linen and towels. This room brings 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.
The kitchen is fully equipped with a with a 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 romantically seat two. This open plan area also leads on to your living room with its ocean colour scheme complimenting your beachy surroundings throughout the town, some of which you have roof top 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. You have free WiFi and a Freeview TV and DVD player for some visual entertainment.
Your closest restaurant to 15 The Digey is almost directly opposite you and it is called Source Kitchen. This addition to The Digey has been warmly welcomed as they serve delicious breakfast's lunch and dinner. We'd recommend booking a table there and taking the 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!
15 The Digey does not come with parking, however, being centrally located means you are not too far from many of the car parks in St Ives. Your closest is Barnoon Long Stay Car Park which is approximately a 5 to 8-minute walk away, you're also able to purchase a weeklong ticket for this car park.

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.
