Overview

Offering guests a fantastic base from which to explore the beaches and attractions of St Ives, the wonderfully positioned Windsor Lookout is a spacious, two-bedroom maisonette with spectacular sea views over the bay; perfect for family holidays or as a romantic getaway for couples.

Open plan living, a range of excellent features and ocean panoramas from the living room's bay window, combine to create a property that guests can feel truly at home in. There’s a fully equipped modern kitchen with a range of appliances and cookware for those delicious home cooked meals to be whipped up in, and two large and luxurious upstairs bedrooms, both of which have en-suite bathrooms. Downstairs the tastefully furnished living space with double sofa bed is the ideal place for relaxing in after days spent exploring the coast, and the light and airy atmosphere along with gorgeous views create an away-from-it-all ambience.

Set in a quiet location above the town but within walking distance of Porthmeor Beach and St Ives town and harbour, this holiday home couldn’t be better placed for a magical seaside holiday on Cornwall’s iconic north coast. Carbis Bay and Hayle lie just a short drive away as do Porthkidney Beach, The Towans and Gwithian.

Welcome to St Ives

There’s something special about holidays in St Ives and we just can’t quite put our fingers on it. It could be the beautiful light that’s attracted artists to the resort for generations, the cobbled streets and coastal views…or that feeling of being a world away from the hustle and bustle. Whatever it is, St Ives has a charm that’s unlike any other, and we’d recommend it at any time of year.

Overall Rating - 4.2
Lovely location but in need to some TLC
3.2/5

We recently stayed at Windsor lookout for a week, the location is 10/10 with amazing views. I would say the apartment was ok but in my opinion it is in need of some TLC - constantly dripping kitchen tap, broken window in bathroom which would not open, numerous bed slats missing, kitchen kick boards missing, rusty radiators in bathroom to list a few. The kettle is in desperate need of replacement, it was orange inside so unfortunately I decided not to use it and ventured out for all my hot drinks! The microwave was also starting to rust on the inside of the door. The apartment wasn’t the cleanest on arrival, there was visible thick dust under all the beds, most of the skirting boards and the stair case. There were also hairs visible on the towels provided, luckily I had packed our own. The rear entrance to the property was out of use, had this been available it would have made life (especially with children) a lot easier! Overall, we had a great time in St Ives and enjoyed our holiday but unfortunately we would probably not return to Windsor lookout on our next visit.

A peaceful stay, with a great view
4.7/5

My eight-night stay at Windsor Lookout was all I hoped it would be. The apartment is spacious and comfortable, within easy reach of the town and its many attractions. The five-minute walk into town takes you down through narrow streets of picturesque cottages; alternatively––again a five-minute walk––there's a slightly steeper descent with amazing views over Porthmeor beach and the open sea. Through the apartment's window, facing east, you see the harbour side of town and right over the bay to Godrevy lighthouse. The apartment is perfectly quiet with a good range of facilities; specially mentioned would be the immaculate bathrooms. Parking is easy in the reserved area––in a town where parking can be a real nightmare. I would not hesitate to book this accommodation in future.

IAN, 20 Oct 2025

Hi Ian, Thank you so much for your wonderful review of Windsor Lookout! We're absolutely delighted to hear that your eight-night stay lived up to your expectations and that you found the apartment spacious, comfortable, and ideally located for exploring the town and its stunning surroundings. It’s great to know you enjoyed the scenic walks into town, whether through the charming cottage-lined streets or the breath taking route overlooking Porthmeor beach. We're especially pleased that the views from the apartment and the peaceful atmosphere added to your experience. Your kind words about the immaculate bathrooms and the convenience of reserved parking are much appreciated, we know how valuable that can be in St Ives! We’re truly grateful for your recommendation and would be thrilled to welcome you back to Windsor Lookout anytime. Best wishes, The Luxury Coastal Team

Beautiful property - pleasant stay
4/5

Everything was outstanding except for the sleeping arrangement. We had booked for 5 adults which obviously meant that we would need 5 bed spaces. The flat had four bed spaces (2 single and 1 double bed), upon enquiring with the caretaker she informed us that we had to request in advance if we wanted 5 beds. She explained that there was a sofa bed which we can setup ourselves, which we did but was slightly unexpected.

Hi Faiz, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and we are so glad to hear everything was outstanding. I do sincerely apologise regarding the sleeping arrangements, on our website under the living area it is outlined that the sofa converts into a double bed and that guests are asked to request linen for this at the time of booking. We are sorry that this was missed. We do hope to welcome you back in the future. Best wishes, The Luxury Coastal Team

A wonderful place - for the time of year it was peaceful and perfect.
4.8/5

We had the most wonderful stay at Windsor Lookout. The aspect of the apartment meant that we were able to see views far out over the town, catching the sea and its many moods and the boats heading to harbour, which were all a delight every morning. As was the birdsong, birdwatching and sheer tranquility of the place. It is very special, with lots of natural light and has been beautifully decorated by the owner, who was extremely kind and accommodating. I cannot fault it and only wish it had been forever(!) A big thank you to Luxury Coastal and to Neil.

Josephine, 31 Mar 2023

Hi Josephine, Thank you for taking the time to leave such a lovely review. We are so happy to hear you had a wonderful stay and were able to enjoy the beautiful views across the bay. It was so lovely speaking with yourself and your mother during your break away and Neil has asked me to pass on his thanks too. We look forward to welcoming you back again soon and thank you for choosing Luxury Coastal. Best wishes, Lois
