Set over four floors and beautifully furnished, Salubrious Cottage flaunts a gorgeous lounge, three airy king size bedrooms, two bathrooms and a fabulous lower ground kitchen / diner that opens out to a fully enclosed courtyard garden.
On the very top floor, a surprise awaits. Here you'll find a terrific snug with bean bags and a music system, as well as two balconies – one of which showcases superb views over the beach and bay and is the perfect place for morning coffees or G&T's. Another highlight of this home is the outside space off the kitchen where you'll find a dining set and BBQ so you can enjoy meals in the sunshine as well as evening drinks on hot summer nights. There's also a hot water shower for de-sanding wetsuits and toes after a day on the beach.
Being a mere two-minute stroll from the harbour and only three minutes from Porthmeor Beach, this holiday home epitomises a St Ives seaside retreat. Fore Street with its terrific bakeries and eateries is virtually on the doorstep, while the famous Tate St Ives and Barbara Hepworth Museum & Sculpture Garden are within easy reach on foot. Nearby, Carbis Bay is an easy walk along the coast path, or you can opt to take the short but extremely scenic train trip and be there within minutes. Further along the coast, Porthkidney Sands and Hayle are around twenty minutes by car, while Mounts Bay with its landmark St Michael's Mount is just under half an hour away.
