The property is a great location!
It’s a cute – (but with plenty of room) cottage with good facilities. Loved the outside bench in the late afternoon playing cards in the sun! Best wishes to Tim! Thank you.
Very good location – ideal for 2 guests!
Very clean & comfortable, would definitely recommend and certainly visit again!
The property was excellent – great location!
We have already booked for April 2019, and a very nice touch with the welcome pack!
Lovely!
Just fab! Exactly what we wanted for a September break – Loved it!
Stayed at this lovely modern cottage as a couple with our dogs.
A few steps to the beach, in an excellent position for the shops and The Sloop also! Loved the goodies bag, had a fab holiday, thank you Cherished Cottages.
A most perfectly placed property a mere stumble to the gorgeous Porthmeor Beach.
We had a fabulous time at Surf Cottage. The Cottage had everything we could have wanted, fully equipped kitchen, the lounge area was like our own cinema room and a glorious shower room and bedroom, the fact our two dogs were accepted without any hassle we couldn’t have asked for anything more. We will be back!
Surf Cottage is a perfect cosy little haven!
Just seconds from the beach – we loved it & the dogs loved it too! Will definitely be back 🙂
Best place we have ever stayed at in St Ives!
Loved the quality of the fixings, furnishings & the hamper – can’t wait to come back! You can just fall out of the front door and on to the beach – perfect!
Fabulous Place!
Lots of room & only 1 bedroom for 2 people. Modern decor & very comfortable. Little dog loved it also, Thank you!
Lovely Cottage!

Our 2nd stay & we are already planning our 3rd!!!

A very well appointed cottage – We loved it!
Lovely Cottage!
We appreciated the welcome on arrival: heating & soft lights on, flowers & thoughtful food basket, great first impression and a lovely stay.
Surf Cottage is perfectly situated!
Another lovely holiday with Cherished! Just a short stroll to Porthmeor beach, a well-stocked corner shop, lots of Galleries and ….. our favourite fish & chip shop 🙂 Immaculate cottage- we felt very spoilt and will be back soon!
We have been to St Ives before, but never stayed in such a perfect location before!
The Cottage has luxury furniture with really nice details (there is art everywhere, the lights are warm and cosy) It’s literally just a few steps away from the really great Porthmeor Beach, and even if you do not surf, you will enjoy the nearness – going to the beach with a cup of tea in the morning or listening to the waves on stormy, windy days! We want to come back as soon as possible. St Ives is one of the most beautiful little towns in England, and Surf Cottage the best place to enjoy it.
Really impressed with the cleanliness and location of the cottage
Thanks for such a lovely stay – great idea to have the Cornish Hamper on arrival 🙂
Beautiful and Stylish
In a really central location, great for exploring St Ives.
30 Seconds walk to Porthmeor beach
Blessing to avoid the hills of St Ives, and it made a refreshing change to stroll around rather than to climb. Fantastic spacious 1 bedroom property.
Fab cottage. Best bed ever. Wonderful Sofa. WE LOVE SURF COTTAGE!
Cherished Team were lovely and helpful 🙂
