“Lovely accommodation & within easy reach of all parts of St Ives (albeit it’s an uphill return but lots of alternative routes!”

). Fabulous views & quiet location. Don’t be put off by the parking it just takes a little patience on first attempt. We found it easiest to reverse down the street & access the ramp backwards.. ample room for an average family car. Notice the property is for sale - if it’s back as a holiday let, we’d have no problem recommending!

“We had a lovely stay at Waters Watch, the accommodation was incredibly clean and well presented, and has views to die for from the bay window.”

It is very well situated, close to several beaches and the main high street which is great for young children & dog (a 2 yr old, a 2 month old & Labrador). The parking space was quite tight for our car (small SUV) and to access you have to drive up a steep ramp… but once parked you’ll be glad the parking space is off the road when you witness to locals driving round the tight roads. I’d recommend reversing up the ramp and leave it parked for the duration of your stay. We would definitely come back to St Ives and would definitely stay here again! Thank you for a lovely holiday

- Natascha, May 2024

Thank you for your feedback we are pleased you have a lovely stay. We look forward to welcoming you back again in the near future. Warm regards, Carbis Bay Holidays Team. Property Owner

“Lovely decor.”

Comfy double bed and sofas. So nice to be able to rent such a high spec property that allows dogs. Thank you so much for this! Everything we needed was found. The parking was difficult and made our arrival stressful. The approach was very tricky but to be fair we were warned of this. All in all a lovely property. We thoroughly enjoyed staying in Waters Watch!

- Debra, May 2024

We are pleased to see that you enjoyed your stay and the property was lovely. We hope to welcome you back again in the near future. Kind regards, Carbis Bay Holidays Team. Property Owner

“Our stay was lovely!”

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!

- Zoe, November 2023

Thank you for your wonderful comments, we are thrilled that you loved your stay with us and that any issues were dealt with swiftly. We hope to welcome you back in the future. Kind Regards, The Carbis Bay Holidays Team Property Owner

Greta September 2023

“We couldn't have had a better stay in St Ives; our apartment was modern, clean, perfectly situated and a short walk from town, and had all the amenities we needed.”

We loved staying at Waters Watch.

Thank you for your feedback we are pleased to see you loved your stay. We hope to see you again in the near future. Kindest regards, Carbis Bay Holidays Team. Property Owner
Barry August 2023

“Fantastic, clean and well kept property in a prime location.”

Had a wonderful stay with the family and will definitely look to return for future family holidays. One very minor request, although I appreciate the space is fairly restricted the small courtyard could do with a revamp (and kept a little cleaner) to make it more appealing.

- Barry, August 2023

Thank you for your feedback, we are pleased to hear you thought the apartment was fantastic and well kept, we will be sure to pass on your request to the owner of the property for their consideration. We hope to welcome you back again in the future. Kind Regards, The Carbis Bay Holidays Team. Property Owner

“Great accommodation.”

But couldn't use the bath as the plug was broke.

- Peter, July 2023
Denis June 2023

“The property was clean and very comfortable.”

The facilities in the property were excellent. The only issue we had was with the outside space, the table and chairs were totally unusable due to the fact that they were full of rust, there was an old builder's bucket and a trug left on the table. This was reported to Emma, upon our arrival, who said that she had informed the owner but nothing was changed whilst we were there

Elisha June 2023

“Hi would have scored this higher, however we have now been receiving emails of a report of damage which is 4 weeks after we have got back from our stay.”

The owner of waters watch has given us an invoice of over £200 rug which they want us to pay for as there was “damage” marks on the rug. The rug isn’t even the same as the one in the apartment. Such a shame after a nice time in St Ives!

- Elisha, June 2023

Thank you very much for taking the time to leave this feedback after your stay in Waters Watch. We are very sorry to hear that you are unhappy for being charged for the damage that happened to the rug. We understand that you were just charged the Good Housekeeping bond and not the full cost for the replacement rug. Unfortunately, the owner was unable to purchase a direct replacement, therefore had to source an alternative rug. Kind regards, The Carbis Bay Holidays Team. Property Owner

“A lovely apartment with views over the bay.”

Clean, modern and very comfortable. So pleased I could take my dog and we had some lovely walks to the beach. Parking was tight but doable. Thank you for a lovely stay. I would definitely recommend.

- Irene, March 2023

“Everything was absolutely delightful thank you - all was very obviously carefully thought through, and every amenity and comfort provided.”

Views were wonderful. Only one small suggested addition - 2 x regular sized mugs would really provide the finishing touch

The property

This immaculate ground-floor apartment, Waters Watch, is located in the lovely coastal town of St Ives, occupying a high and excellent position on the sought-after road of Carrack Dhu.

Waters Watch offers breathtaking views of St. Ives Bay and makes a wonderful home base for families exploring the wonders of this Cornish region.

You are welcomed by a highly sought-after parking space when you arrive, but since everything is close by, you won't need it much during the week.

Discover the open-plan living area where you can relax on the sofa and watch your favourite movie on the Smart TV with soundbar, or sit on the bay window seat and enjoy views of the town and sea.

Impress the party by serving up delectable dishes that you've prepared in the modern kitchen/diner, along with a dishwasher and washer/dryer, and are ready to enjoy at the table while you look back on the day's experiences.

Freshen yourself in the bathroom, which features a walk-in shower and a choice of bathtub, before retiring to the double or bunk bedrooms, all of which are decorated in neutral tones.

A private entrance to the courtyard is located at the back of the building, and the front communal landscape gardens make a lovely area to relax.

The apartment is in a great location; it's only a short stroll to the Barbara Hepworth Museum, the Tate St. Ives, and the charming harbour, where you can eat some fish and chips and observe the boats bobbing with the tide.

While those looking to get out on the water can board fish charters or a sea safari, those who feel active can follow the South West Coast Path.

Don't miss out on a trip to the magnificent St. Michael's Mount, a famous site featuring a mediaeval fortress, the Normal Church, and subtropical gardens.

At Waters Watch, all of these and much more are waiting.
