"Just like to say what a beautiful apartment Indigo is. It was spotless and the views were to die for I didnt want to come home, I could have stayed there for the rest of my life. St Ives never disappoints, we had my husband birthday meal at Pizza Express and then a drink at The Sloop In just more or less next door to Pizza Express. "
M. Shorthouse"Thanks for your email. We enjoyed another week at Indigo and it met all our expectations. We had a great lunch at the Porthminster Cafe and loved all the walks around the beaches in the area from Lelant to Zennor. The parking at the apartments meant that there was no need to use the car everyday. "
L. Trower"Indigo lived up to expectations, modern, well equipped, light and airy, with quality fixtures and fittings. The location is excellent for St Ives and for Porthminster Beach. We would book this apartment again and would be happy to recommend it to others. During our stay we visited the Minack Theatre which was spectacular, we also went down the tin mine at Geevor which gives a unique picture of what life was like for miners, until not so long ago."
