About this property
Occupying an elevated and enviable position on the sought-after road of Carrack Dhu, in the wonderful harbour town of St Ives, rests this well-presented, ground-floor apartment, Waters Watch. Offering stunning views over St Ives Bay, Waters Watch provides a splendid base for families and eager to uncover the delights of this Cornish location. Upon arrival you are greeted by a sought-after designated parking space, but with everything in walking distance you’ll hardly use the car all week! Discover the open-plan living space, where you can perch on the bay window seat and overlook the town and sea, or get comfortable on the sofa and watch a favourite film from the Smart TV and soundbar. Impress the group with delicious dishes whipped up in the sleek kitchen/diner, featuring a handy dishwasher and washer/dryer, ready to enjoy at the dining table as you reflect on the days adventures. After a day spent following the coastline, freshen up in the bathroom with choice of bath and walk-in shower, before retiring to the double or bunk bedroom, both finished in neutral tones. To the rear of the building is a private entrance to the courtyard, while the front communal landscapes gardens provide a splendid place of rest. The apartment is in an ideal location, just a short walk away lies the Tate St Ives , the Barbara Hepworth Museum and the picturesque harbour, where you can enjoy a portion of fish and chips as you watch the boats bob with the tide. Those feeling active can follow the South West Coast Path, whilst those looking to take to the waters can embark on fish charters or a sea safari. Be sure to visit the majestic St Micheal’s Mount, an iconic landmark with a medieval castle, Normal Church and sub-tropical gardens. All this and much more awaits at Waters Watch.
St Ives is one of Cornwall's prettiest harbour towns, with narrow streets, quayside cottages, the Tate Gallery and Barbara Hepworth museum, fabulous beaches, superb shops, a thriving artist community, and great pubs and restaurants. With its semi-Bohemian lifestyle and romantic air, this is the county's top resort. Wildlife, coastal walks, surfing, and the Celtic mysteries of Land's End Peninsula are all nearby. Excellent location!

St ives is like our second home, we come here every chance we get! We stayed in Waters watch which I wish I could rate higher than I have, but I just felt stressed staying here! I will say every time there was a problem it was sorted. The mattress was very uncomfortable, both of us didn't get much sleep as it wasn't comfortable at at all. I will say I loved the living room area and kitchen! The view is amazing from the living room and the kitchen has everything in that you need to cook! I loved the light up morrior in the bathroom, that was also a really lovely touch! Also has a really nice little court yard at the back which we didn't use (it's November) but was really lovely!
