St Ives, Cornwall
This charming cottage is a lovely base from which families, couples and groups of friends can explore all that St Ives and its beautiful surrounding coastline has to offer.
May Cottage is a dog friendly holiday cottage.
Just a short walk from Fore Street and the harbour, and within very easy reach of Porthmeor and Porthminster beaches, this beautifully refurbished cottage is set over three floors, with all its living and entertainment space at street level, and its bedrooms and bathrooms upstairs.
Recently modernised and lovingly refurbished, it’s a fantastic coastal retreat where an open-plan living/kitchen space strikes the right balance between cosy and airy, allowing you to unwind, cook, eat and spend time together in complete comfort. The cottage’s three beautiful bedrooms include a gorgeous double bedroom and en-suite on the first floor, with a roomy king and twin on the second. There’s also a lovely family bathroom which has a bath and a hand-held shower so is especially good for those travelling with younger children or toddlers.
To the back of the property you’ll discover a delightful courtyard garden with furniture and place for a disposable BBQ, which is perfectly suited to warm-weather relaxation, so if you fancy fresh air dining or drinks in the sunshine, this is most definitely the spot. The garden is enclosed too which means that guests travelling with their dogs have a secure place for them to stretch their legs.
Ideally placed within St Ives, the cottage though tucked out of the way is still less than 5 minutes’ amble from the beautiful harbour, shops, restaurants and art galleries. 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. If you do fancy exploring by car, further along the coast are even more of the area’s best beaches including Carbis Bay, Upton Towans and Gwithian, while the lovely seaside towns and villages of Mounts Bay like Marazion and Mousehole are within a 30-minute drive.
