This charming three-storey home in picturesque St Ives is the ideal location for a relaxing seaside holiday for a family and is less than 100 metres from the sand and surf of Porthmeor Beach. A great base for exploring the coast and local attractions. You are less than 500 metres from the four beautiful beaches in St Ives and the pretty harbour that is the heart of this fishing community.

A spacious property with a coastal theme and impressive views where you feel transported away from your day-to-day routines. Off the hallway is a lovely lounge with a cottage feel where you can relax on the comfortable sofas, chat, or watch movies together on the Smart TV. The ground floor also features a bathroom and a contemporary kitchen. Then kitchen has all the appliances you need to rustle up some family favourites to enjoy in the dining area while planning the next day’s adventure. On the first floor is a second bathroom and three bedrooms: a double with a TV, a single and a bedroom with two singles and a TV. Meanwhile, the second floor has a bedroom with two single beds (open to the stairs) and a TV. Outside enjoy the picnic bench at the front, or in the rear is a decked viewing platform from which you can enjoy the pretty view.

Paradise Park and Jungle Barn (6 miles) is perfect if you fancy a change from the beach, and it has an indoor play area in case the weather is wet. Tremenheere Sculpture Gardens (7 miles) is a lovely spot for a family-friendly walk, where everyone can enjoy the sculptures, the woodland walk, and stunning views over the bay.

Lovely cottage in a great location, just a few steps from Porthmeor and the Digey. Furniture a little dated but bathrooms looked newly installed and the showers were great. Overall clean, cosy and perfectly functional. Would stay again.

Fantastic location. Cottage was great and as we expected from the photos. Would definitely book here again. However, we didnt realise there would be so many steep steps into the property and the garden area and that the parking was 15mins walk away, again up some very steep steps - great if you are young and fit but not so great for those who aren'Read moret. The hinge on one bedroom door was broken and we couldn't open the door properly. Just needed new screws. Hide

Brilliant location, so close to porthmeor and to have guaranteed parking space is a bonus. Plenty of sleeping space, the views from the top floor are brilliant and modern improvements had been made to this floor since we last stayed including easier stair way. The kitchen and living spaces are not the biggest if the house is full but they 'do' aRead morend the kitchen is brilliantly equipped. Having a shower room downstairs was great for us. The beds were comfy and there was plenty of storage room. We would stay again. Hide

Brilliant rental, superb location, fabulous views, great outdoor space, very comfortable beds, 2 great bathrooms/showers. Constant hot water on demand. Very good level of equipment and facilities. All we hoped for and true to its description. Very nice vase of flowers was very welcome. Perfect (and quite rare) configuration of double bed/single/twiRead moren rooms etc for our 3 generation family. We had a great week. Hide
