We really did enjoy 3 Wheal Dream. It was comfortable and large enough for the 3 of us. It is also nicely placed in St Ives for beaches (a choice of), walking on the coast and for the town. Will seriously consider a re-visit next year.

This is a lovely, well equipped cottage, in the perfect location for all the beaches and everything St Ives has to offer. It has the big advantage of parking, and even better still, it is just a few feet away from the sea. I loved sitting in the window seat and in the courtyard garden watching and listening to the waves, and it was amazing to fall Read moreasleep and wake up to the sound of the sea. Hide

Stunning views and a really lovely, well- equipped cottage very close to a small cove ( just down the steps) for early morning swim.

We loved our stay here. It was a perfect location with a beautiful view of the beach from the front bedroom. It was such a bonus to have a car space and a little garden patio (at the back) that got sun in the afternoon. You can sit and see straight through the gap at the side of the house to the sea, just lovely. It is beautiful furnished, and had Read moreeverything we needed. We cooked and the kitchen equipment there was perfect. Everything was in perfect condition. It was such a lovely holiday and I would love to come back next year. Hide

We have stayed in this property for many many years, it never fails to meet expectations. The location is excellent and 5 minutes walk of all beaches, the town and the Island. Would highly recommend and will be staying there again next year hopefully.
