Reviews

What a fantastic location very close to beach and only a few minutes walk away from harbour pubs restaurants and shops lovely place if you’re a tidy person so ideal for us, it was so nice to hear the sea when in bed with widows open.

Mr J,

We had a lovely holiday in this cottage. We couldn't believe how close it was to the beach ( about 20 steps after coming out of the courtyard) This cottage is traditional and quirky and we loved it. The kitchen was really well equipped with everything we needed too.

Mrs S,

Location

St Ives is one of Cornwall's top destinations and a beautiful seaside town where visitors can enjoy a traditional beach holiday with a twist. It's easy to understand why the town has been attracting painters, sculptors and ceramists for decades with its stunning scenery and natural quality of light- one of only four Tate Galleries in the world is located here in the heart of the town. The town itself arcs around the working harbour- the heart of the historic fishing community. You could lose yourself for hours in the charming cobbled streets which are crammed with gift and craft shops, art galleries, top notch restaurants and welcoming local pubs- a real treasure trove just waiting to be explored!

St Ives also has four fabulous beaches, Porthmeor, Porthgwidden, Harbour beach and Porthminster which between them offer miles of golden sand and hours of building sand castles, playing in the rock pools and other family friendly activities. Dogs are welcomed out of season. Throughout the year, St Ives has a busy event calendar including the St Ives Food & Drink Festival in May and a Music & Arts Festival in September.
