Immerse yourselves in the Cornish coast from this delightful property in St Ives. Suitable for five guests, this beachside home with harbour views offers an excellent spot for a seaside getaway and a great base for family and friends.
A step into the apartment brings you into a traditionally furnished, cosy lounge/diner, which has been thoughtfully arranged for relaxation and serenity. Stick the kettle on and curl up in front of a film on the TV after a day of adventuring. When tummies start to rumble, the compact kitchen space is your go-to for all head chefs. Whip up a meal for your guests and serve it at the dining table for five people. Take your drinks out to the balcony and watch the boats swaying on the coast while catching up with your loved ones. The three bedrooms are lucky enough to boast harbour views, too, so you can enjoy a cuppa in bed with the sound of the waves in the background.
Slip into a slower pace of life in this stunning Cornish town where many sandy beaches, cream teas and locally sourced fish dishes are available from your fingertips. Wind through streets of pretty cottages, grab a drink at the endless rows of lively bars and cafes or make the short walk over to Smeaton’s Pier to look back over the town from a distance. Avid walkers will want to experience the panoramic views of the well-travelled South West Coast Path. Ramble the trail for 4.5 miles and reach the gorgeous granite village of Zennor, where you’ll be greeted with a rich folklore history and connections to D.H. Lawrence. For days at the beach, Porthgwidden and Porthminster Beach are both within a mile of the cottage.
