Polly's Cottage is a traditional pet-friendly fishermen's cottage with sea views from the second bedroom and is situated on Porthmeor Road just yards from the magnificent Porthmeor beach. This cosy cottage is ideal for exploring all that St Ives has to offer. A third ground floor bedroom has been added and allows five people to sleep comfortably, or six if two share the second bedroom, although it should be noted that the seating and dining space is better suited to four people. An enclosed courtyard garden, complete with garden bench, enjoys a south facing, sunny aspect.
two three seater sofas, TV/DVD, coal effect fire.
electric oven and ceramic hob, fridge with freezer compartment, washer/dryer, dishwasher.
bath with shower over, WC, basin. Stairs down to bedroom 3 and up to bedrooms 1 and 2:
double bed, basin, sash window to front of property.
4ft double bed, basin, sea view.
twin beds, TV/DVD.
electric heating, WiFi, 2 small dogs only, short breaks available.
Love the location - perfect for capturing Porthmeor sunsets and the little front garden for a coffee and chatting to passers by. Going to sleep with the sound of crashing waves. A very sweet cottage close to the town but in a relatively quiet position.

The Tate is a must; something everyone should visit at least once, or simply relax and enjoy the view from one of our many self-catering beach-front apartments. Most of the town and all it has to offer is a level walk from Porthmeor, making it many of our guests' first choice of location. Many Porthmeor properties offer parking and most have superb beach views and balconies.

Held on the anniversary of the consecration of the Parish Church of St Eia in 1434 AD, Feast Day offers visitors to witness - and even join in with - some centuries-old traditions. A morning precesison led by the Mayor to bless the Well of St Eia. Following this, the Mayor will 'Hurls the Silver Ball' into a crowd of children who assemble on the beach below. The one who returns the ball to the Guildhall steps by midday receives a silver coin. In the afternoon the Mayor then throw pennies from the balcony of the Guildhall for children to collect.

Only one point to make the blind in one of the bedrooms the one facing the roadside had a broken slat on it and it was thick with dust, the rest of the cottage was spotless. The location was perfect, the cottage was very quaint and cosy and the beds were really comfortable

We are really sorry if any areas had not been up to the usual high standards. We have since had trades attend to the blind to repair this, and are very sorry if it had not been cleaned properly for your arrival. Thank you for letting us know. Tanya, Customer Services

When you are staying in a property, you get to experience things in a different way to how we do, when we inspect them, so your feedback is really helpful, thank you. We have passed on your comments about the bathroom and plumbing update to the owner, for his consideration, and will also add that to our inspection notes, to look into. Thank you again. Tanya, Customer Services.

This comfortable little cottage, in its excellent location near the beach is perfect for a dog owning family. We will be staying again!
Mrs Manson May 2016
Lovely fisherman's cottage ideally located for Porthmeor and Porthgwidden beaches. It has a small front garden which offers additional privacy and utility. Lovely to hear the sea from the cottage and also to see if from one of the bedrooms.
Mrs Kennedy August 2015
First time we have been disappointed about booking through Aspect Holidays. Sorry if you feel the comments are unfavourable but it is an honest repsonse.

Reply from Aspects Holidays
Thank you for sending in your review. We genuinely apologize for the fact that you found the condition of the property to fall below your expectation and your previous experiences with Aspects. We visited the cottage during your stay and placed the new TV and rugs in the property, reporting our findings to the owner at the time. He has since carried out a bit of a refurbishment including new laminate flooring and soft furnishings. I am aware that we have since spoken with you about your feedback but thank you again for bringing your comments to our attention. Tanya, Customer Services.
Not likely, I don't want anyone else finding this dog-friendly cottage in the best location in St Ives!
