This studio has been updated since my last few visits. I was a fan on the cabin bed and the large tv. I will admit the sofa is better and the layout better for access. The shower is amazing outdoor space magic fir st Ives. You won’t be disappointed!

We booked West Coast House through Cherished Cottages and from the start to the end it was the perfect break. The team couldn't have been more helpful with booking and during our stay, and the house was the perfect holiday home. A stone's throw from the beach and minutes from the town centre, it was the perfect location for our family holiday. And the view of the sunset from the bedroom windows was stunning! Would highly recommend both West Coast House and Cherished Cottages!

Back for a 3rd stay and loved it just as much, Couldn’t ask for a better location 2 minute walk to shops and restaurants 5 minutes from the beach. This house has a great feel about it can’t wait to come back next year. Love the treats and flowers on arrival nice touch, Thanks for the stay to all the staff.

Our second stay at Driftshore cottage and won’t be our last as we have booked for 2026. The location is excellent, just 2 minutes from two beaches and the town centre for restaurants/shops but just off the main routes so there is less noise than some places we have stayed. In the living room, it is easy to relax after a busy day and the kitchen has all you need, if the walk to Fore street is too hard (wet) and you want to stay indoors.

This is a truly amazing house to stay in for your holiday, the location and views are second to none The bedrooms are spacious with luxurious bedding, en suites and bathrooms are of an exceptionally high standard The first floor kitchen, dining room and lounge area make the most of the stunning views, as do the decking areas Plenty of outside space to store paddle boards, surf boards, belly boards and wet suits together with an outside shower too We enjoyed every minute of our stay and didn't want to leave

Lovely welcome pack with produce and fresh flowers on arrival. Amazing location. It rained all week but you can just sit and gaze at surfers and sea in the comfort of apartment in the dry. Very comfy bed. Shower a bit tricky as it was inclined to overflow. Tastefully decorated and would return for another stay. Many thanks.

Where to begin, a week’s stay at Seaside House was amazing from start to finish and exceeded our expectations. The property itself is stunning. Beautifully decorated, immaculately clean and so spacious. A fabulous view each morning from the master bedroom. The beds are so so comfortable. High quality fixtures and fittings makes any self catering stay here a joy. Perfectly located for access to the wharf/harbour,for shopping along Fore Street, the restaurants, Harbour/Bamaluz/Porthgwidden and Porthmeor beach, the artists studios, the Island.

We had a lovely weeks holiday at Crab Rock-on arrival the property was cleaned to a high standard, a very modern apartment and the welcome bag of goodies was a lovely touch-the views of the harbour were just stunning, even on the rainy days it was lovely to sit and relax and watch the world go by. Loved the bi-fold doors on a sunny day and to sit on the balcony was just lovely. The bed was very comfy and had the best nights sleep. The apartment had everything we needed for our stay. We loved everything about the apartment and Would definitely recommend a stay at crab rock and we hope to re...more

We have stayed in about 40 holiday homes over the years. All have been 5 star rated but none have compared to Harbour Lights. Spread over 3 floors it offers everything you would need from a perfect holiday home - cleanliness, comfort, privacy, peace, space and then you have a view that will stay in your mind forever. From the balcony you look down on to St Ives bay and harbour. Sitting out there with a cold drink, watching the boats and yachts coming and going is paradise. The whole gable end of the top floor is glazed. The walk down to St Ives looks a long way but in reality it takes 14 minut...more

Another quality property from Cherished. Superb location with stunning views from lounge and master bedroom which never failed to make me smile. Lovely balcony overlooking beach and another overlooking the town. No parking but can use Barnaloft for dropping off luggage. We arranged private parking which saves any uncertainty of finding a space. Ideally situated for restaurants, shops and walks. Only negative is poor lighting for reading but I would not hesitate in returning.

If this house hadn't have had the view, I think it would still have been one of the most outstanding properties we have ever stayed in in St Ives (and we have stayed in A LOT). It was stylish, comfortable, well equipped, there was no short-straw bedroom, and the location was incredible - dead centre, with Fore Street about 100 paces away. But the view... or should I say views... whoa! Even those in the two bedrooms at the side of the house wake up to sea vistas towards Porthminster Beach, while the three at the front square on to the (literally) dazzling harbour and chapel-topped Island. If I ...more

This property was probably the best equipped we’ve ever stayed in, in terms of items left for our use ie dishwasher tablets, washing up liquid, bin bags etc. The only thing we couldn’t find that we needed was a corkscrew! It was immaculately kept, really clean and our midstay clean was efficient and really well done by Rachel. The big downside for me was the mattress in the master bedroom. It was so uncomfortable and for some reason, we felt as though we were rolling into the middle of it all the time. It was odd because it looked like a new mattress. Other than that though, a fantastic stay. ...more

Just right for the two of us, in a great position for an early morning swim at Porthgwidden and a very short walk back for a lovely hot shower! Well equipped and cosy little cottage with high spec equipment and everything we needed when cooking for ourselves. We slept really well in the comfy king sized bed. Loved walking the coast paths with such stunning scenery and we never tire of the little streets and all that St Ives has to offer. We enjoyed the welcome gifts and thank you for your friendly & helpful customer service.

From the moment we began organising our holiday to the second we closed the door on the final day, we couldn't fault Cherished Cottages. Thank you so much. Memories made and loaded! All communication, directions and advice were spot on. We arrived in the dark but had space to unload. If you hit the jackpot you can park outside, however for a little over £20 for the week, you can park in long stay Barnoon car park, which is a short walk back down to Lobsters.

A return visit to 4 Island Road, and the cottage was fully up to the usual exceptional standards. We have been visiting St Ives for eleven years now and have used Cherished for most of those visits. They are a friendly, helpful and efficient company that we can recommend without reservation.
