Nice, modern decorated flat, two floor quite spacious accommodation, great for families with young teens . Shops and restaurants on the door step, walking distance to the beach (10 minutes). Due to location entry behind the shops is not the pritiest solution, but there is a private patio perfect for drying beach gear, over all nice week in St Ives .
