About this property

Fabulous 3 Bed Cottage With Parking And Garden Overlooking Porthgwidden Beach

Morning Cottage is perfect for a family holiday. It is close to all the many attractions of St Ives including the beautiful beaches and town, but in a peaceful location. The kitchen is well equipped for your comfort, although there are so many wonderful restaurants, cafes and pubs in St.Ives you probably won't want to cook. The cottage has 3 bedrooms (2 twin and 1 double with king size bed) and sleeps 6. It has a very large living room with comfy seating, TV and electric piano (bring your own headphones!). There is a bathroom with bath and shower as well as a separate cloakroom and also a warm shower outside for washing off the sand after trips to the sea. For the less energetic it is great to sit with a glass of wine on the patio overlooking the sea. The top bedroom has a large window facing the sea and a rocking chair - an ideal place to sit and watch out for dolphins passing by.

St Ives Morning cottage

We thoroughly recommend a stay at Morning cottage. It has brilliant views and Is ideally situated. The cottage was very well equipped, and owning a holiday home of our own, we would definitely recommend staying here. We could not fault the cottage, and it had its own parking spaces, which is a luxury in St Ives.. The local neighbours were very friendly and welcoming. The view from the top bedroom were absolutely stunning, , if not a bit interesting as we were looking at a Royal Navy frigate that was moored a few hundred meters off shore for the G7 summit . I think we would struggle to think of any thing to be negative about our stay. So in summing open I would give this cottage a 10 out of 10, and will definitely look to returning.

Beautiful cottage in fantastic location overlooking the lovely Porthgwidden Beach. Three good sized bedrooms with extremely comfortable beds. Very well appointed, the cottage had everything I needed, including parking on the drive with is a real bonus in St Ives and good wifi! Quick walk into town and right on the coast path for some fabulous walks. Very quiet at night. Would highly recommend, can't wait to stay again!

Perfect home from home

This was our second stay at Morning Cottage and we’re already planning our return visit. The location and facilities are second to none and the attention to detail was spot on, with the COVID-19 processes clearly explained. Morning Cottage is delightful - comfortable, cosy yet spacious and benefiting from a new bathroom, warm outdoor shower and two parking spaces. Communication from Sarah, the owner was extremely good and very helpful. Highly recommended!

Fabulous stay in Morning Cottage

Morning cottage has everything you need for a perfect holiday. The cottage itself is comfortable and well equipped. The location is outstanding and its what made the week for us. The children could safely walk down to the beach themselves. The harbour and shops are all within walking distance. The garden and view is a bonus. We would definitely return.

Fantastic house, perfect location

Had a wonderful stay in Morning Cottage during the St Ives Festival. It's in an ideal location - very central, but quiet, and close to many great restaurants and cafes - would highly recommend Porthmeor Cafe at sunset! There is also a beautiful beach nearby, and we appreciated the outdoor shower at the cottage when we got back. The house has everything you need, and Sarah provides a hamper with essentials and a bottle of wine, which was a lovely touch. The kitchen is very well equipped, and there is a barbecue area and both indoor and outdoor seating. The views from the garden are fantastic, and it was great to sit outside for all our meals, weather permitting! Inside is spacious and nicely decorated, and there are great views from the top bedroom, and even a telescope for stargazing! Can highly recommend, and will hopefully be back in the not-too-distant future.

Lovely holiday in St Ives

Sarah's communication with us was fantastic. The house is in a great location for shops and two beaches. The house is well equipped and cosy we couldn't have wanted for more. The wifi was a bit hit and miss would be my only negative comment but there was five of us using it. Would definitely return to Sarah's property.

Quirky little property with great views and parking

Had a lovely two weeks in this quirky cottage. The owner, Sarah, was very helpful and easily contactable. My husband had to duck quite a lot but low doorways are the norm for fisherman's cottages in St Ives. There are the added advantages of two toilets, especially for a full house (our party was four adults) and parking for two cars. The views are fantastic from the top floor bedroom and the weather was hot which all added to a great holiday 😊

Lovely location and very homely

We’ve stayed in many places in St Ives over the years, but this property beats them all hands down in terms of location. Comfortable, a home from home and with all the amenities you could possibly want (the washing machine is a godsend with a grubby five year old boy!), we made good use of the outdoor shower to wash sandy toes and I enjoyed sitting out in the garden reading my book and watching the waves crash over Porthgwidden after I’d put my son to bed. In addition, Sarah, the owner, was incredibly helpful and a pleasure to deal with when I had some queries. With the added bonus of parking, glorious views and a stumble away from the beaches, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to return.

The only place to book in St Ives!

Having owned property in St Ives, and also been a regular visitor for over 10 years, I think I can speak with some certainty. The four things you want in St Ives from your property are: PARKING by the property CENTRAL LOCATION in Downalong as it is a flat walk everywhere SEA VIEW in this case of two different beaches from the house CLOSE PROXIMITY to the beach. All these are met at Morning Cottage and you can even park TWO CARS at the house, not somwhere up the road if you are lucky. We also appreciate a traditional fishermans house not an apartment with who knows what going on under and over you. So there you have it, the best location possible and everything inside just lovely. Hope I have not shot myself in the foot for future availability!

Lovely cottage, great location, perfect views

Our week at Morning Cottage was great. The cottage is well furnished, has a lovely kitchen which we used to cook our fresh fish and seafood landed at Newlyn. The bedrooms are comfy, especially the top floor with views of the beach and harbour. Sarah the owner was very helpful with recommendations for pubs etc. We'll be back!

A beautiful spacious cottage in prime location.

My family and I spent a fabulous week in St Ives. Morning Cottage is beautifully positioned for the Beach and just a short walk to St Ives harbour. The cottage is very well equipped and very comfortable with plenty of room for 6 adults and a baby and convenient parking.

About the host

Host profile image
I used to visit my grandmother in St Ives when I was young, and now I have my own house here! I am married with 4 children and we all love spending time in St.Ives

Why they chose this property

St Ives is a magical place and so beautiful. I'm not very keen on the seagulls trying to steal my ice-creams but on sunny days I do love to sit on the rocks near the cottage watching out for the porpoises, dolphins and seals that sometimes pass by.
