*IMPORTANT NOTICE – NEIGHBOURING BUILDING WORKS*

Please note that there is currently construction taking place next door to the building where Porthia Penthouse is located. The apartment’s stunning sea views remain unaffected, and there is no impact to guest access, use of the allocated parking space, or entry to the building. As expected with nearby building works, there may be some inconvenience - such as noise during normal working hours - while the project is underway. To reflect this, rates for May and June 2026 have been reduced by 20%. If you have any questions before booking, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Wonderful stay in St Ives

This property was amazing. It did not disappoint. There was a wonderful view over Porthminster Beach. This exceptionally clean apartment was 5 star - such attention to detail including a lovely welcome pack. Thank you. Would definitely recommend. The only thing that might be an issue for some people. There is no lift and being the Penthouse on the third floor there are quite a few stairs to climb. The communication with the management company was excellent too.

Stay

The stay was great, orange roof stayed in contact. If there was an issue they informed and addressed it right away. The location is excellent and house was tidy. Billie who is part of orange roof always stayed in contact and was polite and very helpful. They gave the cleaners no whom I contacted and checked out at same time. We stripped down our bedding for the cleaner to help them for their next guests whilst it wasn’t necessary it’s polite. The apartment we left as we got it . Will definitely book again Thank you

Wonderful property

Very nice 2BR / 2BA apartment with a great location. Easy to access St Ives via the footpath across the street. Location near the St Ives station gives you convenient access to the rest of Cornwall via train. Apartment is on the third floor of ghe building and there's no lift, so it is a wonderful place to stay if you're fit enough to manage the stairs. We would stay here again without hesitation.
