8 Rosewall Cottages

8 Rosewall Cottages is a 3-bedroom cottage in St Ives, sleeping 6. The property sits within 700m of three beaches - Porthmeor, Porthminster, and St Ives Harbour Beach - placing it at the centre of the town's coastal walking routes.

The cottage has a king-size bedroom with TV on the upper floor, plus two double bedrooms. A first-floor shower room has a walk-in shower and heated towel rail. The ground-floor bathroom has a bath with shower over. The kitchen is separate from the living and dining room, which has an electric fire. Appliances include a wine cooler, dishwasher, washing machine, and microwave. A travel cot and high chair are available.

An enclosed rear courtyard has outdoor furniture, and off-road parking for one car is included - a practical advantage in a town where parking is limited and expensive. Two dogs are accepted.

Porthmeor Beach, the Atlantic-facing surf break directly below Tate St Ives, is 700m north. Porthminster Beach - south-facing, calm, and sheltered - is the same distance to the south, with its award-winning beachfront cafe. St Ives Harbour Beach sits between the two. The town's galleries, including the Tate and Barbara Hepworth Museum, are within walking distance. A shop is 300m away and pubs are within 500m.

Nearby: Porthmeor Beach (700m) and Porthminster Beach (700m). See our St Ives guide for more beaches and walks in the area.

Best for families or groups of up to 6 bringing two dogs, with three beaches within 700 metres and a travel cot available. Less suited to those bringing more than one car, since only one parking space is included, or to guests needing step-free access, given the first-floor bedroom and shower room.
