Charming Cottage 50 Mtrs from Porthmeor Beach for up to 6 people. With parking

Star Gazy is in a quiet pedestrian walkway, and there is a private parking space a short walk away, a tremendous bonus in St. Ives.The Porthmeor Beach is just a minutes walk from the cottage, with all the other beaches, cafes and little shops etc within a 5 minute walk. There are two large granite steps leading from the path into the cottage, and once inside there are 6 stairs taking you into the dining room, everything then is on one level. Star Gazy was originally built around 200 years ago as a store for fish, and was converted onto a comfortable 3 bedroom home about 100 years ago. Star Gazy retains several of its original features including stripped floorboards in the dinning room and bedrooms, and beams and exposed granite in the dining room. It is light and airy and overlooks the gardens in the meadow. Care has been taken in choosing furniture and equipment to make the cottage as quirky and comfortable as possible. A welcome pack containing tea and coffee will be waiting for you, and our housekeeper makes every effort to leave a few items in the cottage for your use, washing up liquid, salt, pepper, hand soap etc. All linen and towels are professionally laundered and included in the price. Beach Towels,Cots, buggies, highchairs, and other equipment may be hired directly from Star Linen St. Ives and will be delivered and collected for you. Local grocers etc are a 2 minute walk away. Supermarkets are on the edge of town.
