Located far down the Cornish peninsula, this charming house in St. Ives combines comfort, views, a fantastic location and period features. You’ll enjoy nestling up in the living space as the night darkens, and catching some sun out in the furnished courtyard. Located on a quiet street just a few minutes from Porthmeor beach (observable from the front-facing windows) and St Ives’ town centre, this home is perfect for those seeking a respite from city life. Head down to the beach and dip your feet into the Celtic Sea, or take a walk out to the Island (don’t worry, it’s a peninsula). Grab an ice cream or some fish and chips and take a walk along one of Britain’s most beautiful beaches, with the gulls gliding jealously overhead and the waves lapping rhythmically against the sand. And for those who fancy a swim in the sea, the underfloor heating on the ground floor, radiators on the upper floors and heated towel rails mean you have everything you need to warm up after.

About St Ives
You could easily mistake St Ives for a town on the coast of Italy, France or Spain, thanks to its smart waterfront overlooking the clear, blue sea and white-sand beach.
