This quaint cottage was perfect for 2 couples. We loved being steps away from the beach and very close to all the amenities in St Ives. The property was clean and comfortable. The only thing I would say is the parking spot is a distance away because of the old town. So anyone with mobility issues might consider that. There are cabs for hire if needs be. Would recommend, it was perfect for us.

Lovely Property
Great location very comfortable and warm place to stay, although the double bed needs updating way to soft and some windows need addressing, other than that would stay again loved it.

Ideal cottage and location
Beautiful old cottage and very central
I’m a bit disabled but still managed the cobblestone lane with a stick and able to access the sea front local pub and really wonderful restaurants
There are stairs but sturdy banisters
Plenty of room for a fold down wheelchair outside but a push for a scooter
Lovely dresser with beautiful ceramics
Comfortable beds
Plenty of heaters so would be fine for a winter break
Kitchen very well equipped bit narrow but added to charm and it is after all a former fisherman’s cottage
Only issue I had was the TV none of us could just access iPlayer without spending half an hour trying to navigate the controls most of us are it literate but think I’d have had less trouble docking with the space station than putting The Archers on
Was a bit pricey but well worth it as so Corey and even though so central also felt totally away from it all
Will definitely return
Victoria the host is also so helpful
If you do stay then the restaurant at the bottom of the lane, less than half a minute serves the best scallops I’ve ever seen

Wonderful Weekend
Location Location Location - 1 minute walk to shops and Harbour and 3 minute walk to Porthmeor Beach. Great space for 4 adults and all our water kit. Easy access for dropping off suitcases and parking space provided. A wee bit dated but perfectly looked after - lots of lovely kitchen equipment if you want to cook. If we ever return to St. Ives we will definitely return to this cottage. Oh a big mention for the beautiful flowers outside - seems everyone wants a photo x
