3 Bed Cottage in St Ives

About this property

An airy coastal property nestled along a peaceful lane in a prime location for exploring the bustling St Ives harbour. This charming bolthole is ideal for a family seaside escape or a relaxing getaway with friends on the West Cornish coast. Wriggle into wetsuits, grab the paddles, and glide across the glistening waters of Porthminster Beach (500 metres) on a scenic SUP session, before kicking back in the light-dappled lounge with a chilled aperitif.

This fisherman’s cottage blends traditional character with contemporary freshness. Picture low-beamed ceilings, exposed stonework, wooden textures, and bright neutral tones. Ascend the steep granite steps to the entrance and slip off sandy shoes at the door. Stock up the crisp country kitchen cabinets with a selection of goodies then rustle up a tasty summer spread. Perch at the breakfast bar to top off glasses then congregate around the wooden dining table and raise a celebratory toast. Step through the glass-panelled doors in the spacious lounge and sink onto the plump sofas. Get competitive with a family games night or curl up with a movie and bask in the warmth of the wood burner-effect electric fire. Retire upstairs to find three inviting bedrooms. Choose between a bright double with sloped stone walls, an inviting twin, and a cosy single. Step out to explore the myriad of striking coastal walks and award-winning beaches.

Amble through the quaint cobbled streets of St Ives to scope out the best morning coffee nook or indulge in a feast of fresh crab and heady rum cocktails at the delightfully nautical waterfront shack (less than 100 metres). Saunter beneath fragrant sub-tropical foliage and admire abstract sculptures at the renowned Barbara Hepworth Museum (100 metres) or snap a blustery group photo against the rugged ocean backdrop at Clodgy Point (1 mile).
