About Ocean Seascape

This beautiful property is called Ocean Seascape and is a perfect base for couples or small families wishing to enjoy St Ives holidays together in comfort, warmth and splendid convenience. This ground-floor apartment oozes comfort, especially with its own parking space for one car right outside the front door (which can be a sizable car too!).

This luxury St Ives holiday apartment has been finished to such a standard to showcase contemporary style yet create a warm and welcoming ambience and offer comfort to all who stay there. The master bedroom is sea-facing with an ocean view, and it can either be a king-size bed in width (it is 6'3" long) or two 2ft 6" wide single beds and an en-suite shower room with WC. The second bedroom has a double bed with a neat en-suite shower and WC. No thought has been spared to the comfort of the beds and bedding at Ocean Seascape, ensuring a restful night's sleep ready for your days of exploring ahead.

Towards the rear of this self-catering holiday apartment are the living, kitchen and dining areas. The living room is a beautifully decorated and inviting room which also has a curious 'objet d'art'; a safe that the owners found when renovating the house but as yet haven't cracked the code to see any loot…Let your imaginations run riot with smuggling escapades off Porthmeor beach Poldark style! The kitchen is well-equipped with integrated appliances (under-counter oven, hob and dishwasher), a Nespresso coffee machine and a large fridge freezer with a water dispenser as well as a washing machine. There is a small courtyard at the rear of the apartment which gives a point of entrance off the beach to wash off any sand before heading into the calm of Ocean Seascape.  
Ocean Seascape is ideally situated being just a few moments' walk following a footpath, immediately opposite the apartment, down to Porthmeor beach or, in the other direction, walk down a short hill that leads you straight into the heart of St Ives boasting the charming cobbled, shop-lined Fore Street and the beautiful turquoise waters of St Ives harbour front. So, whether you're looking to pop on your wetsuits and head down to Porthmeor; a surfer's paradise, or have a day of culture at TATE St Ives you're no more than a 5-minute walk from either.

Another charming asset of Ocean Seascape's location is you're just a short walk out of the centre of town so you have the best of both worlds. A sense of calm whilst overlooking the ocean, but a quick change of scenery walking into the heart of St Ives in just a few minutes. Looking for somewhere off the beaten track to start your St Ives journey? Head down to Little Palais, on 2 Barnoon Hill, a neighbourhood bar offering small plates, wine and cocktails. It is hard enough to believe St. Ives is in the UK sometimes, and spending an afternoon here will make you feel like you're on a beautiful backstreet in Paris!

As already mentioned, the parking for Ocean Seascape is right on your doorstep but, if you wanted to park a second car, Barnoon public car park is very conveniently opposite the apartment. If you decide to leave the car at home, St Ives train station is a ten-minute walk away or just a few minutes in a taxi.

*Please note, the Bluetooth speaker is now a JBL Flip speaker and not the one in the photos

To re-cap, this boutique holiday apartment in St Ives sleeps four people in two bedrooms. It has two en-suite shower rooms with space-saving ingenuity. There is a shared rear courtyard where sandy clothes can be stripped off before heading indoors. Immediately outside the apartment is a generously sized parking space for one car.

A lovely apartment in a great location in St Ives. Beautifully renovated with a well equipped kitchen. Warm and cosy for our spring visit. Parking an extra bonus. We hope to be back.

A thoughtfully decorated & designed apartment. Well equipped & ideally situated behind the Tate gallery & a short walk to the Hepworth studio & garden. Very close to Porthmeor beach. Added bonus of a parking space. Would definitely stay here again.

Lovely stay at the Ocean Seascape flat 2. The owners have given a lot of thought into the decor, really comfortable bed, good sleeps had and great shower. 3 minutes walk to Tate gallery, 5 minutes to Barbara Hepworth museum and 7 minutes into centre of St Ives for restaurants & shops. Definitely recommend to others.

My husband and I absolutely loved the ocean seascape. We loved the apartment. The location is perfect. You get in and out of town were easily.
The bathrooms may be a bit small but for us it was ok.
The livingroom and kitchen are spacious and well equipped. We appreciated the door separati g the bedrooma from the kitchen and living room.
We would definitely come back.

My husband and I absolutely loved the ocean seascape. It's an incredible property with amazing rooms, every detail is well thought out and I have never stayed anywhere as clean and well presented. The fully fitted kitchen has everything you need. The fresh milk in the fridge was a nice touch, especially after the long drive from Yorkshire to St Ives. I highly recommend this property, in easy reach of the beaches, shops, restaurants and bars in the area. When we return to St Ives this property will be at the top of the list. Great value for money, ticks every box!

We had a lovely week at Ocean Seascape in St Ives

Location- You don't need a car and there is a private parking spot outside the apartment. So once you get there you can relax and explore St. Ives by foot. The environment is very quiet, away from the hustle and bustle. There is an amazing beach opposite the apartment and down some steps. I think this is the best beach in St. Ives. It is bigger than the harbour, but small enough that you can see both ends of the beach. The sea is a beautiful sparkling clear turquiose colour and the sands are pale cream/ yellow. There is also an amazing cliff top walk right near the apartment. There is a sunny little patio at the back of the apartment with benches. You can walk or get the sea train to Carbiss Bay. The location has the best of both worlds - right within easy walking distance of the town but quiet and removed slightly, near the beach and cliff tops.

Interior - The apartment is spotlessly clean. The decor is very tasteful and stylish. The front bedroom overlooks the sea. It's very quiet. Each bedroom has its own en suite bathroom which is handy as it gives you two available bathrooms. The sink in the second bathroom is a tad small and cramped but that's the only fault I came across in the whole apartment. You can sometimes hear people walking around in the upstairs apartment but thats ok, its not that noticeable. The living area is nice, the kitchen is modern and clean with all mod cons. Overall we had a lovley relaxing stay, and would recommend this apartment for those who would like to be able to keep their car parked most days and walk around St Ives. Of course you can drive to the surrounding areas too and your private driveway parking spot will be waiting for you when you return which is rare in St. Ives!

Beautiful apartment, everything we needed and more. Very tastefully decorated and spotless. Perfect location in St Ives and great to have a parking space. Lovely cream tea awaiting our arrival. Plenty of room for 4 adults. Orange Roofs provided all the information beforehand and during our stay that was needed,and we felt that the service was very personal to us. Contacting them was so easy and they always replied immediately. We will definitely return to Ocean Seascapes and can't recommend it enough. St Ives of course was as beautiful as always!

We stayed at Ocean Seacape in July 2023, and this was our first booking with Orange Roofs. The overall service was excellent, communication from Orange Roofs prior to our arrival was superb, we downloaded the app and found all the information that we needed at our finger tips, including the check in instructions.
The property itself was ready on time and was very clean and well presented. The addition of some milk and a cream tea was a very pleasant extra. The property was spacious and had all of the features we needed for our stay. The space felt light, airy and modern and was the cleanest holiday home we have stayed in for many years. The bed was very comfortable and all linen and towels were clean and good quality. The location was excellent for us, close to the town centre and St Ives beaches all within easy walking distance, although there are some reasonable inclines to walk up to get back to the apartment that may be an issue for some. The parking space was fine for us and fits decent size vehicles, we were in an Audi A5. We had a wonderful week and would definitely use Orange Roofs and stay at Ocean Seascape again.

The only bad thing about this property is that you have to leave. We had a great time. Great location with parking. Close to everything in st Ives. Seascape has all the little luxuries that makes a holiday comfortable. I'll book it again.

We loved our stay at Ocean Seascape. Comfy beds, nice showers & nice decor. Everywhere was clean & well looked after. We were even able to sit in the garden for a drink, which was nice. Great location too. Overall it was a very comfortable stay and good value, between two couples. Recommended.

Fabulous accommodation .. a real home from home. Would definitely recommend and so clean and well furnished. Could quite easily live there permanently.

Very clean with all the equipment and appliances you could want. Only one small point to mention, not being able to get in until 5 pm is a bit late, after travelling a very long way you just want to get in and settled. I would think 3 pm would be better.

Orange Roofs Comment:

Thank you for your lovely review Phil. We would also love to bring check in times forward but as we are still experiencing the fall-out of staffing shortage following the pandemic lockdowns therefore we cannot risk promising a 3pm check-in because there are so many boxes that need to be ticked to make the properties to the standard they are. Please be assured that as soon as we feel we can bring the official check in time forward, we will. Until then, we all work very hard on changeover days to get everything as it should and hopefully release the key safe codes ahead of the 5pm check-in. 

Please note from 2023, the new check-in time will be 4pm onwards.

We stayed at Ocean Seascape during Easter holidays and can honestly say it is one of the nicest places we've stayed in St Ives! Very well equipped and clean apartment, with lovely little touches (hand wash in the bathrooms, milk in the fridge... even scones, cream and jam for an afternoon tea!). Location is amazing, literally 5 minutes to Porthmeor beach. Plus the bonus of a parking space. We would definitely recommend staying here for exploring beautiful St Ives. Hopefully we can return soon!

This was our first stay in St.Ives and we couldn't had wished for a better apartment.. it is not only beautifully decorated and furnished but perfectly located and with its own parking space. It was spacious and had absolutely everything you could need. One thing to consider is bed configuration, we chose to have 1 double and 2 singles which actually resulted in our young sons getting the stunning and huge master bedroom! Won't make that mistake again.

This was our second time staying in Ocean Seascape, and we will now only use this property if available when we intend to visit St Ives. The ability to park directly outside and have an apartment all on the ground floor, makes this the perfect for us as my mother is a little unsteady on her feet. The accommodations were beautifully decorated and we wanted for nothing in the amenities supplied. The welcome package of tea, coffee and scones was most welcome after the drive to Cornwall. The Orange Roofs app is also excellent and probably the best of its kind I have used.

There was nothing we could fault at Ocean Seascape. Everything we wanted, and more, had been provided. It was clean, beautifully decorated and kitted out. Lovely having a car space outside too. Great being so close to Porthmeor Beach (if somewhat steep path to get to it). A friend had recommended Orange Roofs and we will be doing the same!

My friend and I booked the above as our holiday in Italy was cancelled. The place itself was even better than the photographs, very stylish and views over the sea. St. Ives itself is very hilly and as my friend and I found out its great going down to the sea front but not so easy coming back up. We did have to stop a few times to get our breath. That said we are so pleased we went and would definitely go back again to Seascapes.

Fantastic apartment right in the heart of St Ives. Clean, well equipped and ideal for those wanting to be able to walk into St Ives but also a car parking space.

We loved our day at Ocean Seascape and would recommend the apartment to anyone. It is in a great location with great access to all the local beaches, restaurants and shops. We loved the decoration and how modern the apartment was and found the rooms comfortable and the showers nice and powerful! Overall fantastic stay thank you Orange Roofs!

We really enjoyed our stay in Cornwall thanks to orange roof ´s team who is truly dedicated to their guests, maintains excellent and spot on communication. They really make it easy , classy and enjoyable. All details and level of service both prior and after the stay make them quite unique. The home was immaculate and very modern, with all attention to details. Just perfect specially when you travel with children. Great location and scenery.

We found Ocean Seascape to be a super clean apartment in a great location for visiting St Ives and the local area. The apartment has all the comforts of home with a lot of nice additional touches. The space and amenities are accurately described and the attention to detail is very nice. The communication we had with the booking/ hosting team was excellent and they were super helpful. The location/ apartment are highly recommended and we would definitely visit again.

This was our first time using Orange Roofs and our first time staying in Ocean Seascape. The app was a great resource and far easier than printing details out before leaving home. The flat was immaculately clean throughout, and the welcome pack of tea, coffee, milk and biscuits was very welcome after a difficult journey down the A30. Fixtures and fittings in the flat were well thought out and everything you could need was there to be found. Nice touches included wall sockets with USB power points to charge mobile phones. The WiFi was good in the lounge and kitchen but a little flakey in the bedrooms. The bedrooms were comfy and spacious with soft clean towels and some slippers as well. The shower was nice and powerful. We will definitely use Orange Roofs again and if available will look to use Ocean Seascapes again too.

Our booking to Ocean Seascape was a last minute decision and we've never used Orange Roofs before but from the moment we discovered them, they have been amazing. Orange Roofs, I dealt with Sam who was lovely, go above and beyond to ensure that you have everything you require and the app is great - super useful and easy to use. Ocean Seascape is a wonderful property. I'm a bit of a clean freak so always go armed with a bag of cleaning products - especially in the current Covid-19 climate - but I can hand on heart say that it was spotless. I don't think we've ever stayed in such an impressively clean property. Top marks to the cleaning team! All the fittings and fixtures seem very new and in top condition so it's clear it's a property that is loved and consistently well maintained. The property is in a fabulous location but get ready to really have a leg workout every time you venture out - those steps and hills are a killer so you really earn those cream teas! Ocean Seascape has everything you could possibly need and more. We travelled with two teenage daughters who shared the second bedroom, it is a bit of a squeeze as there isn't much room around the double bed...but if they can manage without killing each other then anyone can. Plus having a second en suite of their own was a real bonus. The master bedroom is a great size with plenty of storage space and a small but perfectly formed en suite with a powerful spacious shower! The living space and kitchen is ample big enough for a family of four and really is equipped with everything you could possibly need. The courtyard is small and functional but probably not somewhere you'd sit out for an evening drink...but frankly why would you when you have the beautiful beaches literally on your doorstep? We didn't miss not having a garden at all, and the private off road parking space is amazing to have in the centre of St Ives (we have a very large car so don't be deceived by the photo, it's plenty big enough). We had a wonderful week in St Ives. It's a beautiful town and dined out in some brilliant restaurants and local cafes which by the way were all very efficient with their Covid 19 arrangements. We will without doubt visit Ocean Seascape again and have already been recommending Orange Roofs to all our friends. Thank you for an amazing holiday!

Ocean Seascape is a wonderful, high end property and the perfect location for our first family holiday with our 8 month old twins, Isla & Lily.

The Cornish tea & Cornish shortbread upon arrival is every tired mummy's dream & the water pressure and hairdryers are lovely and powerful. Beds are super comfy and it's so easy to get in and out of town and onto the beautiful beaches.

I could stay forever in this fantastic holiday home.

Tremendous support from Sam at Orange Roofs. Lots of info and we knew that we could contact her if there were any problems. Thankfully there weren’t any. The ground floor apartment was very good. Kitchen and shower rooms very up to date. Lots of hot water. Second bedroom small but adequate for one . Would have been a squeeze with two adults in there. Very easy access to St Ives and the parking space in front a godsend for us. Would return there and from us that’s a real plus!

We had a fantastic stay in Ocean Seascape. The house was spotless throughout and the décor was of exceptional quality. It's a steep climb to the property from either the town or beach and this should be kept in mind for those considering booking in this area however this did not detract from the fantastic house itself. We will be back in St Ives again and will certainly use an Orange Roofs if at all possible.

Apartment recently renovated with lovely floors. Ideal size for 2 couples with parking onsite. Fully equipped kitchen with plenty of plates, glasses and utensils. Washing / dryer machine was put to full use. Apartment ideally located with a short hilly walk into town and ideally situated for coastal walks. Weather was not the best but the main swimming beach is a very short walk away. St. Ives has a few great pubs and restaurants. Communication with Sam was spot on could not have asked for more. Definitely recommend this apartment.

We’ve just returned from the most wonderful week in St Ives. The weather has been exceptional for March. Not a cloud in the sky until Friday. Really hot too. It caught us out and we both caught the sun. We stayed in Ocean Seascape which is located just behind The Tate. We couldn’t have wished for a more perfect apartment. Beautifully decorated and furnished. We would have been quite happy to live there permanently. There are a number of walks from and also around St Ives. Some can be quite strenuous but worth it for the views you gain. We would definitely recommend Ocean Seascape if you decide to have a holiday here. The added bonus is the off street parking allocated in front of this property. We last stayed in St Ives twelve years ago. We will not be leaving it that long next time. It’s a beautiful place in a lovely county.

A fantastic apartment/flat just minutes from the heart of St Ives. We were the 1st to stay there and it was just lovely. 2 double bedrooms both with en-suite, a spacious lounge and great kitchen with everything you need. The parking space outside the property is a real bonus, especially in St Ives.
