One of a collection of modern properties within the Gallinas development and set on the ground floor of the building, Porthminster Skies is a two-bedroom holiday home with wonderful sea views and private parking.
Bright and airy with tasteful decor and open plan living, there are sliding doors connecting the inside space to a fabulous balcony where guests can soak up the sunshine as well as the views. A fab kitchen with lots of counter top space and storage has all you need to rustle up home cooked meals, but of course should you decide to eat out, there are tons of wonderful restaurants within easy reach of the front door.
Porthminster is a beautiful beach lying less than half a mile from the apartment. Here you'll find golden sand for lazing on and clear water for swimming and water sports. The beach is overlooked by Cornwall's iconic Tate St Ives art gallery too, so if you're interested in local artists and their work it makes for a fascinating few hours. More sandy stretches lie waiting at Bamaluz and Porthmeor, both less than a mile away. Porthmeor's beach-based cafe is a popular place to grab a delicious bite after a beach day and the views over St Ives Bay from here are stunning.

Amazing place to stay
This apartment was so clean spacious and comfortable. The little touches were lovely, the board games for you to play, the washing powder if you wanted to use the washer, utensils for everything you need, even all the pots ,pans and trays looked new. As long as you don't mind walking up a couple of steep roads back from the town then this is perfect. Really enjoyed staying here.

Hi Angie,
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review! We're delighted to hear that you found the apartment clean, spacious, and comfortable, and that the little touches made a difference to your stay.
You're absolutely right about the walk back from town, those hills can be a bit steep, but we hope the views and peaceful setting made it worthwhile! We're so pleased you enjoyed your time here and would love to welcome you back again.
Best wishes, The Luxury Coastal Team

Comfort in Cornwall
We stayed in this lovely property for a week in July and had a fantastic time. The property has everything you could ask for and is in a great location just a few minutes walk from the beach. The only negative is the parking space which is very tight and perhaps not ideal if you have a large car or SUV.
