About this property
Fabulous holiday house with garden and nearby parking, close to town and beaches
Whether you want a base to explore from or a stylish, comfortable retreat to relax in, No. 8 won’t disappoint. In a quiet location only a few minutes’ walk from the bustling streets of St Ives, No. 8 comfortably sleeps six, has stunning views from the top floors and has a lovely south-facing garden – a rarity for St Ives. Within a few minutes’ walk you can be in the centre of the town, viewing the art at Tate St Ives or in the Barbara Hepworth Garden or simply settling onto Porthmeor Beach for a day in the sunshine.
Parking for one car is included - you can drive to the house to unload and then the parking space is a few minutes away on a private driveway. The walk back to the house is approx 5 mins.
We have been awarded a TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence due to our great guest reviews and have many guests who stay year after year. We will always do our best to make your stay comfortable and enjoyable. Contact us with your dates and we will be as flexible as we can. If you need to cancel, we will always be flexible and will do everything possible to re-sell your dates and move your stay or refund your payment.
We have three good sized bedrooms with comfy beds, gorgeous linen and soft towels. We have a lovely new bathroom and separate shower room, also recently installed. On the first floor you will find the master bedroom with a king sized bed, exposed brick wall and views across the rooftops to the sea. On the top floor, we have one room with a king size bed and spectacular views across the harbour and a third bedroom with twin beds and a side view to the Island. The shiny new family bathroom has a shower over bath, sink and toilet and we have installed a lovely new a shower room with shower, vanity unit and toilet. Both showers provide a lovely warm, powerful shower. Although the house is set up for 6 we also have a small bunk room (with full adult sized beds) which would suit 2 extra children and is the perfect place for a travel cot as it is near to the master bedroom on the first floor.
This is the ideal holiday home for families, friends or couples.
If you are travelling with little ones, then we can help take the hassle out of your packing a little bit. We have: a Travel Cot (please bring bedding), High Chair, Changing Mat, Puzzles and Toys - all available at no extra charge.

About the area
St Ives
Located in St Ives, this holiday home is near the beach. While the natural beauty of Carbis Bay Beach and St. Michael's Mount can be enjoyed by anyone, those looking for an activity can explore St Ives Harbour.
St Ives Museum and Paradise Park and JungleBarn are also worth visiting. Sailing and surfing/body boarding offer great chances to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with hiking/biking trails and cycling nearby.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Alison Battles

Hello – we are Ali and Kieran Battles. We live in Bristol with twins, Eleanor and Isaac. It was always our dream to own a holiday home in Cornwall and we hope you enjoy staying here as much as we fell in love with No.8 the first time we visited. We want you to feel at home and make the most of your holiday – if there’s anything you think we could do better or something you think would help make your holiday even more enjoyable then please let us know.
Why they chose this property
We have lots of families who come back to No.8 regularly. It's a great base to explore St Ives from, offering comfortable and stylish accommodation with a lovely sunny garden and wonderful views from the bedrooms. Close to everything, you can park your car once you've unloaded and you won't need it again until your departure day! Parking is included in a private space about 5 mins walk away. If you do want to explore beyond St Ives there are no worries about finding a parking space when you get back.
What makes this property unique
Beautiful views, a lovely light and airy home with stylish furnishings, lots of art, books, toys and games and a sunny garden - a real home from home.
