Betty's Cottage St Ives. Grade II listed perfect getaway with secure parking.

Betty's is a beautifully presented Cornish cottage built in the mid 1800s.
Our newly renovated cottage is well equipped and furnished with much thought for your comfort and relaxation. The 2 bedrooms are furnished with a kingsize bed in the master bedroom and 2 single beds in bedroom 2, cleverly arranged to maximize the space, that along with a double sofa bed in the lounge provide flexible sleeping arrangements.
We hope to inspire a restful ambiance from where you can unwind. It is a perfect place for small families and couples alike.
Wander from your door to the harbour front with its plethora of artisan cafes and shops. You can enjoy the luxury and convenience of the location, as you are a 5 minute stroll to the harbour and just a short distance away from the stunning and child friendly Porthminster beach, Porthmeor and Porthgwidden beach along with the Tate Gallery which are all within easy walking distance.
Betty's Cottage is the ideal holiday retreat from where to discover the wonderful St Ives and beyond for your Cornish adventure.
We have secure parking within a parking compound just a minutes walk away on from the cottage.

Comfortable stay in a great location

We spent 5 nights in St Ives and really enjoyed the convenience and comfort of this cozy cottage. Although it is compact, it comfortably accommodated two of us with a bright living space and its location close to the waterfront. We really enjoyed the dedicated parking space to make day trips around the area.
