Perfect home base in St. Ives

We enjoyed our week in St. Ives and this rental made it easy. It is conveniently located within a short walk to the bus, grocery store, harbour and beaches. The space is beautifully decorated with all of the modern conveniences we needed over the course of the week. We would recommend this rental without hesitation and would love to return.

Family holiday

We had a weeks’ holiday in the Cornish Pearl with our 2 daughters and dog. The house had everything we needed for a relaxing stay in St Ives & was in a great location, just near enough to the town and the beaches but far enough away to escape and have some peace and quiet. The hosts were very helpful and answered any queries we had promptly. We would definitely go to St Ives and stay at the Cornish Pearl again.
