Ancient Lights And Surfside Studio

Ancient Lights and Surfside Studio combine a fisherman's cottage and self-contained studio for six in a pedestrianised St Ives lane. The main cottage has one double bedroom and a children's bunk room. A further double and en-suite shower room occupy the separate studio, giving the combined accommodation two bathrooms.

Whitewashed stone walls and exposed beams remain in the cottage, keeping the fisherman's-cottage character intact. A patio beside the studio provides outdoor seating. Wi-Fi, a dishwasher and washing machine are included, and dogs are accepted. Host Jasmine manages the booking, and category ratings score cleanliness, comfort and location at 5 out of 5, with equipment at 4. Parking is a mile from the door rather than on site, since the lane itself is pedestrianised.

Porthmeor Beach is 100 metres away, and Tate St Ives is within walking distance. St Ives Harbour Beach is 200 metres away, followed by Porthminster Beach at 400 metres. The St Ives guide covers the town's beaches and galleries in more depth.

Two holidaycottages reviews give the property a rating of 4.8 out of 5.

**Best for:** a family or group wanting separate studio space and Porthmeor Beach within 100 metres. **Less good for:** guests requiring parking nearby, step-free access, or a layout that keeps all three bedrooms under one roof.
