Amazing apartment spotlessly clean fantastic views comfortable home from home 10mins walk into town dont let the steps put you off would definitely recommend thankyou orange roofs
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.
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.
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
We had a truly enjoyable & comfortable stay at the Porthia Penthouse in St Ives and will probably stay again in the future. The apartment was beautifully laid out to maximise the space, comfort and exceptional views from within and on the balcony. Contemporary in style with plenty of light in all areas and meticulously maintained with every useful gadget you could ever need plus the beds and furniture were both comfortable and well proportioned for two people or four.The information provided is accurate and comprehensive and we were doubly warned of the flights of stairs and potential noisy adjacent building work likely to interfere with a peaceful stay. I must say because the stairs were shallow in pitch and the buildingwork unobtrusive, neither of these potential problems were an issue. We are both in our 70's and my wife has a heart condition and we were both comfortable, plus the elevation provided the incredible views over the bay as well as close proximity to St Ives its self with and adjacent parking space big enough for my 5m car. St Ives and the area offers so much all within either walking or driving distance, plus loads of places to enjoy excellent food & especially the quality of the seafood. Orange Roofs who manage the property are the best company we have ever booked through providing comprehensive information, great communication and support, they are truly customer focussed and extremely supportive (Thankyou Ross & Kat).
