This was our 2nd stay at white cove. We love the location and the view. The flat had everything we need. Magnificent!

White Cove is the perfect destination. What's not to like about gazing out of the window to the sea or walking around The Island? We have visited White Cover many times and love love love it!

The location was superb, and whilst some of the reviews mentioned it could be a noisy location, we found that this was not the case (and we visited in mid-August in excellent weather - when you might expect it to be the noisiest time of year).

The property is really light, has great views, is very comfortable and well equipped - we would definitely book this again. Also the WiFi was excellent which is not always the case in St Ives properties.

We had a lovely time at White Cove, it was great being so near to the beach, and being able to sit in the lounge and look out to sea was amazing.

Beautiful location, lovely sea view.

We enjoyed our stay at White Cove and would recommend to others .It was located on entrance to dog friendly porthgwiddian beach and an easy stroll to other beaches and the harbour . White cove provided all facilities we needed. Overall alittle more attention to cleanliness would make this property superb . We parked in the Island car park. We only left the space one afternoon to visit other places and managed to get a space after 6 pm . Most times we observed there were no free spaces .

Possibly having a reserved car parking space somewhere would make the property 10/10

White cove is a gem , such a light warm property in a great location . Having stayed in lots of properties in St Ives this is by far the best . The views , the sunrises and sunsets not to mention the seals and dolphins . Take your binoculars they are a must . New carpets downstairs where lovely some of the bedroom furniture could be replaced but only to make it all as good as upstairs. We will be back .

We stayed Christmas and New Year at White Cove. The location is ideal just a quick 20 or 30 steps to the beach which was great with our dog. The property itself was looking tired in places with the bedroom carpets having seen better days coupled with handles missing from furniture which let the place down. Kitchen was fully equipped and allowed us to cook a full Christmas dinner with all the trimmings without any difficulties. However, the freezer was frosted up and desperately needed a defrost to be able to use it. The views from the living room are fantastic and allowed us to watch boats and dolphins in the bay. Note to point out that the walls on either side of the property are really thin and conversations can be heard easily from both sides.

Great location and lovely views but limited kitchen equipment.

Our first time at White Cove and we had the best time, lovely view and perfect location for all beaches would definitely recommend and can’t wait to stay again

To spend a week at White Cove is like wearing a pair of cosy slippers and being enveloped in a warmth we will remember forever, especially;y as it was our golden wedding anniversary while there. The house and the view are perfect in any kind of weather although this year the sun shone most days and the week sped by far too quickly. We look forward to 2023 and out next visit to this wonderful property.

White coat was everything we expected a more, Beautiful surroundings and a wonderful stay would highly recommend.

Wonderful location so close to the beach.

We loved our wk. at white cove, found a few minor niggles but nothing to put us off our holiday, we have mentioned to aspects and I’m sure they will be resolved. Either way, we would definitely book this property again.

As others have mentioned the en-suite shower is very small I fit in at 5ft 3 but my partner couldn’t use it, there is a bath with shower head upstairs so he used that and prefers baths anyway so wasn’t a problem.

If you are looking for a quiet location this property wouldn’t be for you, it’s close proximity to the cafe and beach mean it’s quite noisy with daily deliveries, bins being emptied and people using the public toilets across the way. We were not bothered by it and enjoyed listening to the live bands playing at the weddings over at porthgwidden cafe. Didn’t want to leave, hoping to see you next year White Cove.

Lovely property in a handy location for those that love the beach x

Great location and wonderful views

We visit St Ives most years and always book through Aspects as always happy with their properties. White Cove was one of the more modern properties we have stayed in, very comfortable and in an excellent location. Stairs may be an issue for people with young children, elderly or older dogs as living area is upstairs to make the most of the wonderful sea views. Not a problem for us though, we loved our stay and will be rebooking this property if dates are available.

Fantastic location for anytime of day walks with your dog, on all of the beaches at St Ives.

We stayed March 2022. We loved White Cove, perfect location, stunning views and very well equipped. Would definitely recommend and will be booking again.

Great week at this place before Christmas, the house had Christmas decorations up which was lovely. Nice warm and cosy place when returning after a windy walk on the beach. Enjoyed watching surfers from lounge window, even managed to spot a seal (I did have binoculars) Close to beaches, car park and a nice stroll to harbour and shops. We will definitely be returning. Loved it!!

The location of this property is excellent! The views from the living room and snug are great too. Compact but has everything that you should need.

Enjoyable holiday in a beautiful location with fantastic breath taking views from the property. Would come back an stay again. A step away to the beach, a few minutes walk away to shops and restaurant’s- everything you need was on your door step.

Great properly overall, stunning view and location was footsteps from Porthgwidden beach. Very well equipped, the only thing which I didn’t enjoy so much was the memory foam double bed as it seemed to make you so hot and was very soft but it depends what you like I guess. Overall a wonderful place to stay, would stay again.

White Cove is a large well decorated home very close to The Island Carpark and multiple beaches. Set over 3 floors, this can easily sleep 6. Great views and very spacious for the family. The bathroom on the first floor was ideal however the shower ensuite may not be suitable for anyone over 6ft due to the height of the shower head, good use of space but it felt rather cramped. It should also be noted, the locality of White Cove is at the top of a popular beach slipway, you may hear conversations in the evening along with the bins being emptied late at night and early in the morning for the beach cafe which is a mere stones throw away. Overall, lovely house and would stay again.

The location is excellent being only 50 metres from the beach. Beach cafe/restaurant serves lovely food with beautiful views. There wasn't any noise from it, as mentioned in earlier posts so no need to be concerned about that. The 'hub-hub of the main area of St Ives is a few mins away so everything is on the doorstep but it is very quiet near the property in the evenings.

What a lovely week spent at White Cove. Perfect for us as a couple and teenage son. Our Labrador loved it and once he'd worked out the stairs (not allowed up stairs at home) he was very comfortable. There were two dog bowls and a blanket provided but we had taken our own blankets as he was moulting. Great use of space with the kitchen and table, compact but certainly felt bright and airy. The shower in the en-suite is actually under the stairs - not a problem for me at 5'4" but any taller people may need to use the shower over the bath in the main bathroom. Beds were comfy and linen clean and fresh. Really enjoyed our week and hope to visit again soon.

White cove was a great property. We loved our stay.

This is a lovely cottage and a delight to retreat to in this most unusual of years. Our two weeks went far too quickly and we look forward to next year's visit. As usual part of the holiday was spent finishing a novel to submit to my publisher and this year we also celebrated a book release as well. What better way to work than looking out to sea on a sunny day!

Exceeded our expectations, fantastic location, beautiful property with great views! Would stay again in a heart beat.

We have just stayed at White Cove and found it exceptional! It was very clean, spacious, modern, well equipped and dog friendly! The location is perfect and we would definitely stay here again! Claire Collins, August 20

Lovely location , so close to the beach so ideal for children or dogs . Stairs not suitable for young children so maybe child gates would be good . En suite is very small and shower not suitable for anyone tall . View is lovely !

This cottage ticked all the boxes for our stay and we have immediately rebooked there.

Fantastic place to stay. Aspects were very helpful start to end. Great layout and design and perfect for a dog - ours loved it. Will look forward to returning :)

Again we had a wonderful week at White Cove. Either relaxing and looking at the view or heading out for a walk White Cove is perfectly situated for our holiday. Henry, the dog loves the cottage too.

Beautiful property with outstanding views and close to all amenities

We always look forward to visiting White Cove for a relaxing holiday with sea views. As always I had to work on a book but it is a joy to work in such a lovely place. Henry (our dog) loves White Cove!

We look forward to our visits to Downalong, St Ives each year and to White Cove in particular. The property is clean, welcoming and perfect for us. I've had to work during several visits and have completed two novels whilst staying at White Cove. The perfect property for a writer!

Loved it! A real holiday ‘home’, clean, comfortable and everything you need in a fantastic location.

My hope is to buy my own property on Downalong. Aspect are ideally suited to have a section on their website for such sales. Just a suggestion ... !

Lovely cottage! Its all about location, location, location and this one has it!

Fantastic Location with superb sea views. Modern and well equipped and benefit of being pet friendly.

Beautiful cottage in just about the best location in St Ives! Falling out of the door in the morning for breakfast in Porthgwidden Café was a highlight!

Our stay was relaxing and enjoyable in White Cove. Ideal for our dog, Henry, as well! Wifi was good which was perfect for this author! We will return.

This cottage is ideal for a family with older children as its location is superb. The steep stairs, I would suggest is not suited for toddlers. The location is brilliant being 30 seconds from beach but this brings its downside as the Porthgwidden bistro can be noisy at night. If you want a quiet get away White Cove if not for you but if you want a property that is at the heart of the beach in the day as well as a social hub at night then White Cove is for you

We very much enjoyed 'White Cove'. It was a wonderful location - very convenient for body boarding and then getting warm quickly!
The decor was lovely - very bright and fresh. It was well equipped and with excellent instructions/information given about the equipment in the house.

One of the best properties we have stayed in when we have visited St Ives!
