Property code: OC-PC007A

An attractive fisherman’s cottage within 500 metres of Harbour and Porthmeor beaches, two of the myriad reasons St Ives is such a popular destination throughout the year. Ideal for families or two couples, the cottage features an inviting lounge/kitchen/diner and near-instant access to a wealth of attractions across town.

Perched on the edge of a narrow road lined with characterful properties in the Downalong area of St Ives, this well-presented cottage is brimming with character, each inviting room across its two floors bathing in sunlight that pours in from outside. The ground floor’s lounge/kitchen/diner is the perfect place to set yourselves up for a day at the beach(s), its comfortable embrace ready to welcome you back when you’ve tired of sun, sand and swimming. The family bathroom nearby is a handy place to clean anyone who has brought the beach back with them, while upstairs, there is plenty of storage space in both the double bedroom and the twin bedroom. While there is no garden at the cottage, its close proximity to St Ives’ beach fronts and bustling town centre more than makes up for it.

St Ives is home to four gorgeous beaches: Harbour, Porthmeor, Porthminster and Porthgwidden, each one popular with water sports lovers, sunbathers and afternoon strollers. The town centre and harbour surrounding them are bursting with independent shops, cafes and pubs offering a range of traditional Cornish fare. St Ives is a popular haunt for artists, with numerous galleries showcasing the beauty of the Cornish landscape. The South West Coast Path, which runs through the town, offers myriad different perspectives of the area.

Location was great, a minute walk from the sea. Property was ideal for 3 friends. 1 double bed and 2 twin. I would recommend this property as it was fine for what we needed in a great location.

The location was excellent as several beaches were very close by. The spin dryer was very useful. Shower didn't work properly. Water was either piping hot or freezing cold. There were ants inside. This was acknowledged and ant spray was provided but it was not clear where the ants were entering the property and, as my husband has asthma, I didn't Read morewant to spray around the property.
