About this house rental
Year after year people return to Cornwall for the beautiful sandy beaches, idyllic coastal towns, stunning scenery and fine local food. More than any other town in Cornwall, St. Ives boasts all of those treasures and more. Within walking distance of Bay View are four beautiful golden beaches looking out onto azure blue water. A long time favourite with artists St. Ives is home to the Tate Gallery and many smaller galleries. The train station at St. Ives links with the mainline at St. Erth but many will make the journey to experience the stunning coastal scenery along the line. In town there is an excellent selection of restaurants and pubs offering superb local cuisine and foods for all tastes and budgets. Stretching out from St. Ives you can walk for miles along the Coastal Path. So if you want to enjoy all that St. Ives has to offer there is no need to move your car. Bay view is located in a quiet residential location just 10 minutes walk from the main town and beaches. If you are feeling lazy you can always take the small town bus which stops just outside. Next door to Bay View is a very well stocked local store for all your provisions. The nearest large supermarket (Tesco) is on the outskirts of town a few minutes drive away. Bay View has been designed as an upside down house (bedrooms downstairs, living accommodation upstairs) to take in the views of the ocean and provide a wonderful open plan social space, incorporating kitchen, lounge, dining and kids corner, a room where everyone can be together and enjoy the ambience of this special space. With vaulted ceiling, exposed beams windows to three sides and 8 remote controlled Velux windows the room is light and inviting. When the sun goes down the Lutro remote control lighting system creates the mood you choose for your evening’s entertainment.

10 / 10Outstanding·Feb 2026
Communication with the hosts was great. Check in etc was very efficient and the welcome folder had lots of useful info, the wifi was good too. We have three teenagers and the extra bathroom was very welcome, as was the overall spaciousness of the whole house. The kitchen was exceptionally well equipped. The whole space is clean, comfortable and 'everything works'. Even with the dismal weather we had, we were warm and it was easy to spend time in the house. I bet the outside private garden is great in Summer for BBQs and outdoor meals or just a cuppa in thr morning, though the views from upstairs are great too. The Spar is literally next door and the Coop just down the road. It is a steep walk into town, but that's true for all of St Ives (recommend A1 Taxis if you can't face the walk back at the end of the evening). We had such a lovely break for February half term, everywhere we went was busy enough to have atmosphere but nowhere too crowded. We could have spent much longer there.

We would like to thank Michael and Eileen for allowing us to stay in their beautiful home. After the journey from hell to get there it was nice to unwind and chill in a very spacious and well equipped home.

The house is beautiful. It was very clean and exactly as described. Onsite parking is essential in St Ives as car parks get full very quickly, It is a hill down to the beach but you quickly get used to the short walk.
