Families and couples will feel instantly at home in this charming cottage in the heart of St. Ives. Each room is full of character, from painted beams across the ceilings to bold feature walls and wood-clad panelling, ensuring your stay is one you’ll remember for many years to come. Located less than half a mile from the harbour and beach, you can hop aboard a sea safari and explore the Cornish coast from a unique viewpoint before heading back to town to indulge at one of the fine local eateries.
Welcoming you into the property is the spacious living room, with a light, bright, white finish contrasting against the jewel-toned sofa and soft furnishings. In one corner is a Smart TV for family film nights, whilst a handy desk sits beside the feature fireplace. The kitchen/diner has a pop of colour on one wall bringing the space to life and getting the creative juices flowing as you cook up a meal. There is also a dining table and four chairs in the room with views out into the garden for guests to gather around and dine together. Upstairs are two bedrooms, the first of which is a double with decor reflecting the coastal location of the property in calming hues of blue. The second bedroom is a cosy room and features a single bed with an additional pull-out bed if needed. Both bedrooms share use of the shower room which boasts a rainfall shower for ultimate relaxation before heading to bed. At the back of the property, there is a lovely cottage garden with a patio area and lots of well-established plants offering privacy for evenings of al fresco dining.
Head into the bustling hub of St. Ives and you won’t be disappointed by what you find. From a selection of independent shops and eateries to a plethora of fantastic galleries such as the Tate St Ives, there is something to please everyone in this fishing town. That’s not to mention the four sandy beaches, of which Porthminster is less than half a mile away for days of swimming, sunbathing and building sandcastles. For a day trip out of the town, drive to Marazion (8 miles) where you can discover the unique island of St. Michael’s Mount with its impressive castle and sub-tropical gardens.
