About this property

Harbour Beach Cottage, St Ives

Harbour Beach Cottage is a 3-bedroom traditional St Ives’ fisherman’s cottage that is directly opposite the harbour beach, St Ives. It sleeps 6 in two double size bedrooms (one is on the top floor with dual aspect sea views) and a single bedroom that has an extra truckle bed that pulls out to form a twin bedroom for 2 people. There is a WC and wash basin on the same floor as the single/ twin room and double bedroom. The family bathroom is on the ground floor with a bath and shower over, wash basin and WC.

The kitchen is on the ground floor and is well-equipped to self-cater for a family of 6. The living room is at the front of the house and has wonderful sea views across the harbour. The same views are enjoyed from both double bedrooms.

The harbour beach is literally on your doorstep and Porthmeor beach is a few minutes’ walk away and the town centre with all of its restaurants, bars and cafes and the harbour is a directly accessible from your front door!

There is free WiFi throughout the apartment.

2 x well-behaved dogs (up to 18kgs) are welcome. A pet fee applies of £50 per pet per week which we collect from guests once the property is booked (terms and conditions apply). Please let us know the age, sex and breed when booking.

Please note, the parking space for Harbour Beach Cottage is at St Ives Rugby Club (a 15-18 minute walk from the house) where there is a generous, allocated space for your entire holiday. During the summer season a shuttle bus leaves from The Tate St Ives and goes directly to the rugby club and costs a small amount per trip. The Tate St Ives is a very short walk from the house.

December visit
Great property in a perfect location with lovely sea views, everything on the doorstep but also quiet in the evening. Communication with the managing company was excellent. Would highly recommend the property and the managing agent.

Perfect for a range of ages
We had a great week at Harbour Beach Cottage. The perfect location meant that the 18-21 yr olds could come and go as they wished without needing a car. The cottage itself had plenty of space for 5 adults and 2 dogs. We were able to take the dogs on all the beaches before 10 and after 6 which gave them plenty of exercise. We were travelling light as no room in the car for extras but the cottage had all the essentials that we needed that we couldn't bring from home

Harbour Beach cottage - perfect location
Harbour Beach Cottage overlooked St Ives harbour & was a short walk to beaches, restaurants and Fore St - a perfect location. Orange Roofs team were great - all information arrived ahead of time & emails replied too very quickly. Thank you Barry

Séjour excellent au Harbour Cottage Beach.
Nous avons passé trois nuits à St Yves afin de visiter les Cornouailles. Nous ne regrettons ni le choix de la ville, ni celui du Cottage. La vue est extraordinaire, et le cottage idéalement placé ! Il ressemble parfaitement aux photos. La literie est très bonne et le cottage est parfaitement équipé. Nous y retournerons avec grand plaisir !

Location - couldn't be better!!
even though we had to change our property at the last minute, the one we ended up (Harbour Beach Cottage) with was perfect. Wonderful location almost next door to the Sloop Inn with its charm. The property was wonderfully clean and the welcome pack was a nice touch (especially the clotted cream!!). Hats off, though, to Orange Roofs who were exemplary leading up to our stay - the level of communication was beyond reproach.

The property was amazing for the location couldn't have wished for a better location
From the moment we booked to arriving at the property we were extremely impressed, from the informative emails to our welcome pack we were very happy. With having a one year old granddaughter the location was key, beaches on our doorstep as well as the town. The games, dvds in the house were perfect. Looking forward to booking our next trip.

Delightful cottage right on the harbour
What a delightful cottage right on the harbour, lovely and clean well laid out with everything we could have wanted. Layout ideal for us but may be an issue with anyone with mobility issues or very small children (lots of steps) The views from the front windows fabulous spent most of the week looking out, we will defiantly look to booking again

Fantastic cottage in St Ives with views of the Har
Harbour Beach Cottage was a fantastic place to stay for our holiday with our 8 month old and dogs. It was a stones throw to the harbour beach, and with a sea view from the cottage we could see whether the tide was out enough to go on with the dogs. The cottage itself was spacious and very well equipped. Orange Roofs also arranged for the hire of a travel cot which was one less thing I had to think about. The location was also fantastic for the town and shops, especially the Italian restaurant below which does a fantastic array of takeaway food (not just pizza!). We hope to stay here again next year as it was a perfect place to stay.

Harbourside Perfection
Truly a perfect home from home, perfectly located with a view of the harbour but set back from the noisy thoroughfares. Beautifully presented with everything we needed. I've stayed in many St Ives cottages and this is definitely one I'll be returning to.
