Set in St Ives and only 700 metres from Porthmeor Beach, Uno - St Ives offers accommodation with sea views, free WiFi and free private parking. This recently renovated homestay is located 800 metres from Porthminster Beach and 1.1 km from Bamaluz Beach. The homestay features family rooms.

Everything about Uno is great! Brilliant views from the exterior to interior. We stayed in the Stargazer room, it was spacious and clean and neat and weather you're in bed or sitting on the comfy sofa, the views were fantastic!! Lovely! Brilliant! Breathtakingly beautiful! 😍 ❤ just Looking out over the cathedrals and out towards St.Ives Bay. Views are so beautiful at night too and peaceful atmosphere 😌 Biggest square rainhead shower ever was a bonus! And the room has good skylight features and roof windows so could open them for fresh cool air anytime of the day/night. Owners were both lovely and friendly and helpful. Stayed an extra night as we couldn't get enough of the views from that beautiful room. Comfortable bed too!! We liked that town was only a 2min walk down the footpath from Uno House and the bay/beach side only a walk away as well from Uno. Some great restaurants by the seaside!! You know your car is safe n sound parked at Uno house so didn't have to worry bout that! You won't regret spending a night at Uno. We certainly didn't. We loved every bit of being there in a peaceful, calm and relaxed environment with gorgeous views inside and out! ❤❤

This property offers access to a patio and free private parking. When staying at the apartment, guests can use private entrance.

The property was to a high standard and was very clean. It was spacious and had everything we needed for our three night stay. It’s about a 20 min walk into the town up a steep hill but we didn’t have a problem with this and there are buses and taxis available. Communication with the owner Anne was great and I would definitely recommend the apartment.

    Very nice holiday apartment alot of thought around guests needs and great facilities within the apartment. Location cannot be any better with the train station a 5 minute walk to the property. Beach is around 10 minutes from apartment. I must say getting to the beach is ok but returning up a very steep hill I found a bit tiring haha. Will definitely be returning in the near future. Thank you for sharing your holiday home with us

    Everything, what a beautiful holiday home, it's situated on a quiet side street that's home to galleries and cafes. Just a very short walk and your on the seafront. The apartment itself is set on two floors has lovely lounge, kitchen, Bedrooms comfortable, shower and bath. Was all spotless. We were left a welcome pack with Cornish tea Coffee milk and biscuits to get us started. We loved how local the accommodation is to everything. Couldn't ask for a nicer place to stay, thank you!
