We are from Germany and happy to have picked this gorgeous traditional British and yet contemporary styled house! The photos on the website show very well how it looks like. The wonderful panoramic views you have through the big windows to the harbour scenery and the beaches and also from the front terraces and gardens can only be seen live! The position of this house is just great. On the one hand only a few steps to Fore Street, or a short stroll along the house to Tate Gallery and Porthmoer Beach, on the other hand peacefully secluded in a picturesque setting. You can enjoy your morning cof...more
Just come back from a great week in St Ives. Great weather, great accomodation, missing it already.
We stayed at the Puffins cottage last week of August and had a lovely time. Location was perfect, not right on top of the busy parades and streets of St Ives, with its squawking seagulls, however close enough to walk 2 young child home after a busy day the beach (with all the extra bags, towels etc) or an evening stroll after dinner and an ice-cream. Property was in a quite location, with great views and lots of room to rest and relax. Excellent condition with all mod cons and necessary requirements. Felt very homely. We will be visiting again next year!
We've just returned from a week celebrating our silver wedding anniversary & hubby's 50th at this amazing house! What can I say?! The decor is stunning, everything is provided for you and the views (especially from master bedroom) are epic! For us, it was topped off by being dog friendly. It may be one of the more pricey houses listed with Cherished Cottages but it is utterly worth it for anyone wanting a getaway to the coast for a special occasion. Thank you!
Fantastic stay at this lovely house only a few minutes walk from Porthmeor beach and central st Ives. The south facing terrace with distant views of the harbour was a wonderful place to breakfast or relax after a morning’s surfing. Although central, the area was quiet and traffic free. Awakening to the sea view from the main bedroom was a joy. The house was well equipped with quality appliances and crockery... the beds were comfortable and the house was spotlessly clean. The second small sitting area on the first floor meant that two couples could have their own space if wanted. Lack of a ...more
We have stayed at a few Cherished properties over the years and none have let us down including West Coast House - great location very close to the beach, restaurants as well as the Tate Gallery. Great views over Porthmeor and Clodgy from the house which itself was of a very high standard both decor & furniture wise, we will be returning!
We throughly enjoyed our stay. The view from the window was fantastic, we spent a lot of time just seating in the window enjoying a coffee or a glass of wine and the view. Location was perfect for the various restaurants and pubs. The apartment was well equipped with everything you need for a very comfortable stay, very cosy. We hope to visit again. Many thanks.
This was our 3rd visit to Seascape, 3 generations all enjoying the lovely house, views and location. The house is beautifully furnished and equipped and works well for the different age groups as we can spread ourselves out rather than all being in one open plan space. Being so close to Porthmeor beach and the shops is a huge advantage, as is the fact we can park the cars and forget about them for a week. The small boys loved playing with the toys and our 12 year old granddaughter made good use of the kitchen as she loves baking. Seascape really does feel like home!
This is a great house. Great quality throughout and a perfect location - a short walk to beaches and restaurants but off the main drag, peaceful and with a perfect view of the harbour and the coast.
The location is brilliant and very central to most area in St Ives, it has a very good garden area with the hot tub located excellently. The rooms are in excellent condition and the appliances are all in fantastic condition. Cannot think of any negatives at all for the property. Cherished Cottages Ltd (booking agents) were also fantastic throughout the stay and were always available for making prior arrangements for our stay, I would definitely recommend them too!
We have stayed in the Downalong area of St Ives before so we know it’s a perfect location for the beaches, harbour and town centre. Red Sails is a lovely spacious cottage, very well equipped and well decorated. There is no car access immediately outside but you can drop off easily a few metres away. The harbour is minutes away down the cobbled street, though those with limited mobility might find this a bit tricky in wet conditions as it’s on a small slope. The house itself has a spiral staircase from the kitchen up to the living room but the access from street level is on the flat. There are ...more
An excellent place ! My only gripe is that we had 6 people staying and were a little short of cups, plates etc. However we asked for more plates and had them delivered which was great
Everything was perfect. The view was breathtaking at every time of day or night. The rooms were all sparkling clean and thoughtfully decorated to reflect Cornwall and St. Ives. Every amenity was considered and provided. The welcome hamper was an absolute treat! Even the perfect weather was arranged for us ;) Well done. Wish we could have stayed all summer long. Thank you!!!!
Very spacious apartment and comfortable with all mod- cons. Bedroom was particularly comfortable with great views and well furnished. Welcome hamper was a lovely surprise and top quality. Would recommend to anyone who would prefer to locate out of the town centre.
What a lovely find. Lovely modern house with everything you would need, including amazing views. We had a lovely week , despite the wet and stormy weather. Had plans to watch the sunset but manged to storm watch instead. Property is lovely with will fitted out kitchen, beautifully decorated bedrooms, great utility room with spare surfboards as well. Welcome pack was delicious. Loved it so much, already booked for next year!! Hope to watch the sunset over Porthmeor next time.
Atlantic Watch is a fantastic holiday home. It is in a perfect location, overlooking Porthmeor beach and a short stroll into the heart of St Ives. The house was just as described. Spacious, well equipped, good bathrooms and showers. It was spotless on arrival and the gift bag of goodies was appreciated. We had a problem with a blown fuse during our stay which was quickly and efficiently sorted by Cherished. With parking and a garden this property is hard to beat in St Ives.
Had a lovely stay in Happy Days Cottage, it was very well equipped and very comfortable we especially enjoyed sitting outside the back in the sun. It was nice to stay in such a lovely cottage with our dog, sometimes dog friendly accommodation can be a bit on the 'tired' side. The welcome pack was a lovely surprise. We will definitely stay again.
A very well-appointed, spacious, apartment with the added bonuses of a sea view and on-site parking in St Ives. Approx. 10-15 minutes’ walk on public footpaths takes you to the beautiful beaches and harbor of this lovely Cornish town.
Everything about Mariners is fantastic and it is clear whoever renovated it and looks after it. Wants to make sure it has the qualities of a top notch home. I’ve never been in a house that has everything you need to the extent that this house does. We loved it and will be back!
A wonderful comfortable apartment with breathtaking views over Porthmeor beach, offers all the comforts needed.
Perfect location. Beautiful house with every you could possibly need. Stunning views. The dog loved watching the world go by.
We love our holidays at St Ives and The Old Bakehouse meets all our requirements in location and the first class condition of this property, right on the harbour and the town with plenty of walks close by, we look forward to next year for our fourth stay in St Ives and The Old Bakehouse !!
A lovely cottage. Very nicely furnished and well equipped with lots of lovely small touches. In a good location for the beaches. Highly recommended.
We had a lovely holiday in this fantastic apartment. Very spacious and clean with everything you need. What a view! Many thanks.
Myself and my family have just returned from a fab week spent at Rock House in St Ives. A beautifully appointed house with all the mod cons. Very impressive views from the living room and master bedrooms. A 5 minute walk down hill into the centre of town. A huge bonus to have parking for two cars as well! I am so glad I found this property! We seriously did not want to leave. We hope to return next year!
As always we had a wonderful time in 20 Piazza. The view is beautiful. The flat is very comfortable and well equipped. Cherished Cottages are fabulous and help immediately if any issues arise. When I explained my allergy to fragrance they took great care to remove any diffusers and to use non-scented cleaning products which is important for us as I suffer with all the artificial room sprays and scented cleaning products. It is lovely to know we can book safe in the knowledge that we are going to a relaxing place. Many thanks Cherished Cottages.
We had a fantastic family holiday staying at Tinhay - the cottage was beautifully decorated and furnished, lovely sea views from the bedrooms and garden, it's in a great location and the service from Cherished was good as usual. Only downside was parking but that's just St Ives!
We all really love St Ives and have been visiting annually for many, many years, staying in a variety of hotels and self catering houses and apartments. Seaside House is by far the nicest property that we have stayed in and it suits our large family well. In fact we are so pleased with it that we have already booked it again for next October half term. A great town, an excellent location, a super property and a fab time was had by all of us. Thank you.
The Tide House provided a perfect cottage for an Autumn break - whatever the weather! It is close to all the lovely St Ives beaches when the weather is gloriously sunny - and snug with a wood burning stove when the wind and rain is doing its worst. We had a wonderful relaxing week, even though it was out of season there is still plenty to do and see. I would highly recommend.
Lovely property in the heart of st ives, ideal for beaches,eating & car parks !! Clean & tidy with all the things required for a relaxing holiday Only downside is amount of traffic & occasional noise at night
This lovely Villa was perfect for our growing family, the location was far enough from the centre but close enough to walk up and down to during the day. We had a wonderful time and despite the weather we still managed to use the hot tub as we used the large umbrella to shelter us from the rain! The garden was totally secure for the dogs to be allowed out and had the weather been better the set up of the garden would have been very well used by us all. We will be returning.
St Ives is the perfect place to stay ! Surf Cottage is lovely in every way ...clean , comfortable etc ! Would definitely recommend!! Perfect .....
First of all this is a great place to stay with the family with loads of open space upstairs to keep that social aspect. The kitchen is well equipped and with a good quality finish through out. Down stairs the bedroom are good and of a reasonable size. The double bunk beds are a great idea but none of the rooms have much hanging space with is not a big deal. Because of the low ceilings down stairs the shower is not normal height meaning some people have to bend down to wash their hair. It is located right next to a restaurant and opposite a shop with is great in some ways but the very early m...more
14 Barnaloft is a very special place. From the amazing view that wows you as you enter the door to the nuances of the sea and light that entrance the longer you stay. No matter what time of year this property holds jewels of experiences for those who stay. Walk to dinner along the beach. Sit on the balcony later and star gaze. No need for a tv, beach life provides an ever changing motion picture. Relaxing in this well designed apartment is a dream.
Shower tiles in both bathrooms needed a good clean and bleaching low down. Debris (which our dog kept retrieving) from under furniture so obviously settee/chair had not be moved and vacuumed. Loved the welcome package and flowers - lovely touch
The Wreck is ideally positioned on the level lane of the Digey between Porhtmeor and the town. This house has steep steps from basement kitchen and bathroom through to the bedrooms of the second floor. The steps from ground floor to basement are also uneven, without handrail and need care. Booking through Cherished Cottages was straightforward and without hitch. We enjoyed our week here at the end of September because we were so convenient for all of St Ives facilities.
