Relax in this peaceful cottage with its wonderful views from the first floor across St Ives Bay, less than 0.5 miles from stunning beaches and many bars, restaurants and art galleries: the residential location is ideal to explore West Cornwall with family or friends. The picture-perfect Cornish harbour town of St Ives, with its quaint, cobbled streets, offers a plethora of independent shops and wonderful places to eat and drink. Book a boat trip, ramble along the uplifting South West Coast Path, surf the waves and enjoy the spectacular golden sandy beaches. Immerse yourself in the world of art, with a visit to the Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden or the amazing Tate St Ives, all within 1 mile. Just 10.5 miles south is Newlyn with its working fishing harbour, whilst St Michael’s Mount awaits you less than 9.5 miles away, with a legend or two to reveal. Venturing slightly further afield, why not pay a visit to the spectacular Minack Theatre where you can experience a play performed in this impressive cliff-side, open-air amphitheatre?

Step into the cottage and delight in the bright and welcoming lounge, where you can curl up and watch TV or read a good book in the rocking chair. Alternatively, the desk area provides a great spot for scribbling in a journal, some sketching or for writing those postcards home. Enjoy delicious meals and socialising in the well-proportioned kitchen/diner where you can gather round the table to plan your day, or gaze out at the charming cottage garden. Upstairs, you’ll find the pretty double bedroom with lovely far-reaching views of St Ives Bay, and the cosy single bedroom. The shower room is also on the first floor.

Head outside to enjoy the evening with a glass of something chilled or dine alfresco in the charming cottage garden. Make the most of the enclosed storage area at the front of the cottage for your bicycles and beach equipment.

Tastefully refurbished and thoughtfully equipped cottage, with both a parking space and garden. Very comfortable stay, thank you. We found a park area to exercise our dog, at the top of Bullans Lane, which was handy. However, its not far to some fab coastal path walks. St Ives is a lovely place to stay and we were blessed with great weather!

a comfortable cottage in a lovely place. However if we visited again we would definitely check the map and be closer to the town/lower down the hill.

We had a lovely holiday in this charming, neat and cosy cottage. The location is in easy walking distance of the harbour and beaches. The cottage is perfect for a couple or family with a lovely patio area and no road noise whatsoever - just the singing of birds. The place was well-equipped for all needs - even handrails for the stairs which my 85 yRead moreear old parents appreciated very much. Hide
