About this property

Fabulous 3 Bed Cottage With Parking And Garden Overlooking Porthgwidden Beach

Morning Cottage is perfect for a family holiday. It is close to all the many attractions of St Ives including the beautiful beaches and town, but in a peaceful location. The kitchen is well equipped for your comfort, although there are so many wonderful restaurants, cafes and pubs in St.Ives you probably won't want to cook. The cottage has 3 bedrooms (2 twin and 1 double with king size bed) and sleeps 6. It has a very large living room with comfy seating, TV and electric piano (bring your own headphones!). There is a bathroom with bath and shower as well as a separate cloakroom and also a warm shower outside for washing off the sand after trips to the sea. For the less energetic it is great to sit with a glass of wine on the patio overlooking the sea. The top bedroom has a large window facing the sea and a rocking chair - an ideal place to sit and watch out for dolphins passing by.

St Ives Morning cottage

We thoroughly recommend a stay at Morning cottage. It has brilliant views and Is ideally situated. The cottage was very well equipped, and owning a holiday home of our own, we would definitely recommend staying here. We could not fault the cottage, and it had its own parking spaces, which is a luxury in St Ives.. The local neighbours were very friendly and welcoming. The view from the top bedroom were absolutely stunning, , if not a bit interesting as we were looking at a Royal Navy frigate that was moored a few hundred meters off shore for the G7 summit . I think we would struggle to think of any thing to be negative about our stay. So in summing open I would give this cottage a 10 out of 10, and will definitely look to returning.

Very well appointed, the cottage had everything I needed, including parking on the drive with is a real bonus in St Ives and good wifi! Quick walk into town and right on the coast path for some fabulous walks. Very quiet at night. Would highly recommend, can't wait to stay again!

Perfect home from home

This was our second stay at Morning Cottage and we’re already planning our return visit. The location and facilities are second to none and the attention to detail was spot on, with the COVID-19 processes clearly explained. Morning Cottage is delightful - comfortable, cosy yet spacious and benefiting from a new bathroom, warm outdoor shower and two parking spaces. Communication from Sarah, the owner was extremely good and very helpful. Highly recommended!

Response from VrboOwner on 22 July 2020
Thanks for your kind review. Yes the internet does seem to be quite variable in St.Ives. I am in the process of getting an upgrade which was delayed by the lockdown so hope to have that in place soon. Having now discussed your comments with you regarding the bathroom I understand that you actually meant the downstairs cloakroom, not the main bathroom which is new, having only just been installed for July 2020! No-one else has actually mentioned the cloakroom as I also had that renewed a couple of years ago, but I will certainly have a look and see what else I can do to make it look fresh. Thanks for your stay and I look forward to welcoming you again.

Fabulous stay in Morning Cottage

Morning cottage has everything you need for a perfect holiday. The cottage itself is comfortable and well equipped. The location is outstanding and its what made the week for us. The children could safely walk down to the beach themselves. The harbour and shops are all within walking distance. The garden and view is a bonus. We would definitely return.

Fantastic house, perfect location

Had a wonderful stay in Morning Cottage during the St Ives Festival. It's in an ideal location - very central, but quiet, and close to many great restaurants and cafes - would highly recommend Porthmeor Cafe at sunset! There is also a beautiful beach nearby, and we appreciated the outdoor shower at the cottage when we got back. The house has everything you need, and Sarah provides a hamper with essentials and a bottle of wine, which was a lovely touch. The kitchen is very well equipped, and there is a barbecue area and both indoor and outdoor seating. The views from the garden are fantastic, and it was great to sit outside for all our meals, weather permitting! Inside is spacious and nicely decorated, and there are great views from the top bedroom, and even a telescope for stargazing! Can highly recommend, and will hopefully be back in the not-too-distant future.

Lovely holiday in St Ives

Sarah's communication with us was fantastic. The house is in a great location for shops and two beaches. The house is well equipped and cosy we couldn't have wanted for more. The wifi was a bit hit and miss would be my only negative comment but there was five of us using it. Would definitely return to Sarah's property.

Charming cottage in great location

We really enjoyed our stay in this cute little cottage! It provided everything you would expect and was also well equipped for a stay with young children. The location is great: 1 min walk from the beach, 5 min walk from all the restaurants in St Ives, ideal for day trips in the surrounding area. We would come again!

Quirky little property with great views and parking

Had a lovely two weeks in this quirky cottage. The owner, Sarah, was very helpful and easily contactable. My husband had to duck quite a lot but low doorways are the norm for fisherman's cottages in St Ives. There are the added advantages of two toilets, especially for a full house (our party was four adults) and parking for two cars. The views are fantastic from the top floor bedroom and the weather was hot which all added to a great holiday 😊

About the host

Hosted by Sarah Bennett

Host profile image
I used to visit my grandmother in St Ives when I was young, and now I have my own house here! I am married with 4 children and we all love spending time in St.Ives

Why they chose this property

St Ives is a magical place and so beautiful. I'm not very keen on the seagulls trying to steal my ice-creams but on sunny days I do love to sit on the rocks near the cottage watching out for the porpoises, dolphins and seals that sometimes pass by.
