No.5 Beach Court

Perfect house in a perfect location.

Excellent location and views across the island
Comfy mattresses and clean bedding
Very kind owners who left us a meal voucher for Porthmeor Beach Cafe
Lovely decor throughout and very cosy
Would highly recommend to stay here
Lovely kitchen cupboards

We loved the overall quality of everything at No. 5 Beach Court. Nothing was 'that'll do'. Handmade individual items were noted and appreciated. The beds were extremely comfortable, the quality bedding crisp and white, the kitchen appliances matching the units rested well with those of us with OCD colour-coordination! The contemporary bathroom was spotless, in fact everything was very clean and in good order. We used the Ruark bluetooth speaker a lot, another quality feature. We were drawn to the main bedroom window to watch the comings and goings and see what the weather was doing on the Island (and check the car from). We have stayed in many St Ives properties, mostly very good, and will definitely book No. 5 again. It's now up there as a favourite. We found the location very easy to come and go from with only a few steps down on to Porthgwidden beach and a few minutes cut through to harbour and Downalong. All-in-all, we would confidently recommend. Thank you to the owners and Aspects. Sue and Martin x

Perfect location. Very clean and furnished beautifully.

Great location. Less than a minute walk to Porthgwidden beach so very handy as we had our dog with us. Well furnished and well equipped house. Only negative is the double bed is very small for 2 large adults, so my husband slept in the other bedroom.

Great location, everything there what you needed , would definitely stay again at this property
Highly recommend it for a family of four

I’ve been holidaying in St Ives for over 50 years. This property ticks all the boxes and I wouldn’t hesitate to book again !

Our third visit to 5 Beach Court and another fantastic holiday! A stylish and comfortable base - close to the beach and other amenities but tucked away from the main throng - ideal.

Perfect for couples or small family.
Beach Court is perfectly situated for the beaches and the main shopping area just 5min walk!
A great property ??

Beautiful house. Lovely fixtures and furnishings. Excellent location for everything you need in st ives. We have booked many different places in st ives and this was by far the best. See you again in September.

This is our second visit to 5 Beach Court this year and have already booked for next year so this should speak for itself! If you love the beach this is the place for you. Accommodation has everything you could want and then some!

Excellent location right next to Porthgwidden beach. Very convenient.
Great modern decor - fresh and tasteful.
Comfy main bed (NB it’s a double not King due to space).
Kitchen well equipped and high end.
Lots of lovely small touches ie. Nice products, little desk in living room & a make-up area in main bedroom.
We have fed back about the weak electric shower.
Note the main bedroom overlooks the car park, but the positive is you can also see the sea on both sides which we liked.
We felt the holiday house was even better than the description and photos.
It served as a great base for a family of 4 (2 kids) and our small dog.

Great position, quiet property and very nicely decorated, but please be aware of the hard to open inner door handles (for anyone that has grip issues/arthritis) and please check with Aspects if a DVD player is fully connected/operational before taking DVDs with you, as although there is one, its not suitable for connecting to the current TV.

This was our first time in Cornwall and St Ives was an ideal place for us with two children aged 9 and 12 who loved how close we were to beaches, shops and cafes.

The house is small but I think all the houses in St Ives are small! The location couldn't be better and it was very tastefully furnished and decorated.

We appreciated the outside tap for hosing down after a session body boarding.

The car park was very busy but we hardly left St Ives and were lucky to get a space when we had been out. My advice would be to ignore the sign advising that it's full and wait for a space - that's what most people seem to do and there isn't much alternative without parking quite far away.

Stylish and comfortable accommodation a minute away from the beach! A lovely stay with good food, great views and wonderful sunsets on your doorstep. Would definitely stay here again.

Excellent property in a fabulous location. We had a lovely stay as a family of 3 with young child and dog - plenty of space for us all. Very comfortable and well equipped with easy access to beaches and harbour. Good for accessibility as easy street-level access and wide staircase up to bedrooms and bathroom. Kitchen well-equipped but compact - we generally eat out on holiday so this wasn't a problem for us. Lovely decor and bright, sunny rooms.

Proximity to beaches is fabulous and outside courtyard with wash off facility was great for morning swims. Accommodation was of a very high standard, immaculate and comfortable. Would book again.

Excellent location, stylish house with some added bits of luxury but cheap shower and sofas let it down for us and the bathroom needed a deep clean.

Octopus House is perfect ideal location and so glad it is Pet Friendly and with easy walks to the town and beaches.
We have used Aspect Holidays for over 20 years and will continue to do so
We love Cornwall especially St Ives it’s magical
Many thanks

A very peaceful stay, Would recommend this property totally, Just wonderful

Great location. Comfortable accommodation.

A very clean and comfortable property (the cleanest holiday property we have ever stayed in!) which was convenient for the Island car park. The welcome pack of milk in the fridge and a cream tea was much appreciated. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Octopus House is very well presented with Porthgwidden beach on your doorstep a perfect location.

Brillant holiday home, everything you could need, absolutely amazing

We had a fantastic week at Octopus House. Excellent location, right beside the beach. The house was very comfortable with everything we needed. Small, but perfectly formed.

Octopus house is a cosy, well equipped, modern property next to the Island. A wonderfully light and clean house with everything you'll need. Beds are very comfortable. One of the best properties I've stayed in!

Our first experience with Aspects Holidays and it was all great. We wouldn't hesitate to book through them again. Octopus House was fabulous - such a great location for Porthgwidden/Porthmeor beaches and within minutes walk of the wharf/fore street too! The house was immaculate, had everything that we needed for a very comfortable stay. The 2nd bedroom is cosy but it is only for sleeping in so was fine. The beds in both rooms were very comfortable.Good to have bed linen and towels provided as other companies we've used in St Ives don't so you either have to pay more to rent them or bring your own with you. Kitchen seemed well equipped but to be honest we didn't do any cooking...ate out/takeaways for us!

Great location, excellent facilities 100% stay again!!

We had a lovely Autumn holiday using Octopus House as our base. The location couldn't be better, with a beautiful beach almost at the front door and a 5-minute walk to the harbour, but also really quiet being off the busy one-way thoroughfare through Downalong. The house has been finished to a high spec, with comfortable beds, big TV and WiFi, a good kitchen, classy furniture and smart bathroom, and the decor is refreshingly free of that driftwood/shell clutter you can often get in Cornish holiday lets. Particular thanks to the Aspects Team (Tabitha and Nicole) who retrieved and returned something I left behind: great service all round! Highly recommend.

Fantastic modern, well equipped cottage, close to the amenities and the Island. Very quiet on an evening so no disturbed sleep. Would definitely stay here again.

We loved our stay at Octopus House in St Ives. Everything about it was perfect - the location, the comfort, cleanliness, high spec of finish all led to a great stay and the service from Aspect holidays was great too - very smooth and easy, from booking through to after service. Thankyou for our lovely holiday.

Beautiful holiday home with modern interior and appliances. Well located next to 2 stunning beaches and very close to the town centre. Would recommend to friends and family.

Excellent property & location
Can’t wait to stay there again
Fantastic week . Thank you Aspects

Great location especially if you have any children. Steps from the beach and shops. Beautifully decorated
Only negative is the lack of any designated adjacent parking.

Octopus House exceeded all our expectations! A cute little 2 bed right in between two of St Ives best beaches.

The property has an open plan set up on the ground floor with a modern bathroom plus two bedrooms. Down stairs is decorated and spected to a lovely standard with BOSH appliances in the kitchen and a Siemens washing machine.

The master bedroom has sea views, the bathroom and second bedroom are to the rear over looking the courtyard.

All in all an excellent place to stay in the world's best place.
