Unique little touches add a certain quirkiness that give each cottage a personality of their own and provide our guests with a true home from home.

Iris is a large, gorgeous luxury holiday cottage with two bedrooms, one has a sumptuous king bed and the second with twin beds which can be linked together to make a double.

The spacious open living-dining area boasts beautiful hand-crafted oak beams and a magnificent fully equipped kitchen. Rediscover family fun and adventure in wonderful surroundings. A child's camp bed or cot can be added to the twin room although this restricts the amount of space within the bedroom.

We are pleased to be able to offer our guests a reserved secure parking space with CCTV located approximately 1 mile from the cottages.

Phenomenal
If I could find a better word than phenomenal to describe this place then I’d use it. Perfect location, stunning interior which was spotless, comfortable and well equipped. We’ve been coming to St Ives for over twenty years staying in various cottages and apartments and this place tops the lot for us.Thank you to the owners for providing such luxury in St Ives!

Lovely week in ideal location
The cottage is perfectly located right in the heart of the old town, just off the seafront. Very spacious and nicely furnished it’s ideal for a family holiday. The facilities were to the highest standard and the owners were very accommodating - we had twin babies and they brought in two cots, two high chairs and two buggies for us at no extra cost.

About the host

Hosted by Gary Beeston

Host profile image
I grew up in Stockton on Tees the centre of the industrial north east. The greatest event of the year for myself, my brother and sister was the annual trip to St Ives for our summer holiday, despite the long drive and the constant “Dad are we nearly there yet”, the first view of the beautiful bay as you come into the town never failed to take our breath away and fill us with excitement for the days ahead. Those holidays gave me such fond memories, I wanted to re-create the experience for my son and grandson, so in 2015 I purchased the three cottages which were in a near derelict condition with the vision of creating some wonderful holiday cottages where the magic could be shared not only with friends and family but also our valued guests. Today we still come to St Ives for our Summer holiday and what a joy it is to see my mother and father spending time on the beach with their children, grandchildren and 5 year old great grandson. We hope you enjoy the living spaces we have provided and that you can create some wonderful memories of your own with your friends and families.

Why they chose this property

The cottages were purchased in 2015 due to their prime location on the prettiest and most photographed street in St Ives. The properties were in a near derelict condition and sadly in need of lots of tender loving care.
It was our vision to transform the cottages into beautiful spaces where holiday makers could enjoy time out in luxury surroundings. Over a two-year period, we slowly and on occasions painfully, saw our initial concept transformed into reality with the creation of Iris, Wella and Juliot.
With the renovations completed in early 2018 we are delighted to offer visitors to St Ives the opportunity to relax in complete luxury and enjoy the stunning surroundings that our transformation team have created. We truly hope you live our dream…

What makes this property unique

The cottage has been completely renovated by local builders and craftsmen using reclaimed timber and slate. The interiors have been professionally designed to the highest of standards with sumptuous furnishing and glorious décor giving a real feeling of luxury living. Iris is very spacious and is ideal for family or friends to enjoy a wonderful week away. The cottage is close to the beach, bustling harbour and local amenities giving you everything you need for a fabulous stay. Iris is luxury living at its best.
