May Cottage - A lovely pet-friendly cottage with courtyard garden, just 7 minutes walk from St Ives

Recently modernised and refurbished, this coastal retreat strikes the right balance between cosy and airy, allowing you to unwind, cook, eat and spend time together in complete comfort. Ideally placed within St Ives, the cottage though tucked out of the way is still less than 5 minutes’ amble from the beautiful harbour. Porthminster and Porthmeor beaches lie within easy walking distance (around 10 minutes in either direction), so if for those who prefer a car-free getaway, it’s perfect.

Good Housekeeping Bond
We ask our guests for a £150 good housekeeping bond, which is pre-authorised against your card. This is in case there is any damage to the property during your stay. The money is simply reserved and then released afterwards if there is no damage. We will contact you nearer the time of your arrival to arrange this.

1 pet allowed, charge of £40 per week
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen and 2 bathrooms, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and an ironing board.

Family Holiday

Great little house for a week in St Ives. Nice central location and close to Co-op for essential items. Well equipped kitchen. Not a problem for us but stairs very steep so probably not great if you have mobility issues.We had a lovely holiday.

Süßes kleines Cottage, in Super Lage

Wir waren mit vier Personen plus Baby in diesem süßen kleinen Haus. Wir hätten uns gewünscht, dass das Sofa etwas größer wäre. Ansonsten haben wir uns in diesem Haus mit perfekter Lage sehr wohl gefühlt.
