Holidays in The Warren
The Warren is a beautifully quiet and quaint spot, tucked away yet only a short and gentle walk to Porthminster beach and the heart of St Ives town. A conservation area and one of the oldest corners of St Ives, The Warren is full of Cornish charm and time-honoured character. Explore the whimsical lanes, lined with old fisherman's cottages, located moments from the iconic harbour.
With Porthminster and the Harbour beaches and plenty of shops, galleries and restaurants just a stroll away, it's a wonderful location for a quintessential stay in St Ives.

Fantastic location, great views from the rooftop and a very comfortable and clean stay. We would definitely come back here.
Ms Nutbeam Apr 2025
It’s a lovely house in a perfect location. We would recommend it for a family of 5 - we travelled with three kids between 8 and 16, and the layout is perfect for that purpose. The house has not one but two outdoor seating areas, which we enjoyed a lot on sunny days, even in winter. The view from the rooftop terrace for the NYE fireworks was spectacular. The house lacks a bit of cleanliness and general maintenance but that didn’t spoil our stay, and Aspects was very engaged and responsive when we reached out.

We are so pleased that you enjoyed your time at 18 The Warren, it's great to hear that the whole family found the property to be perfect for their needs. As you have mentioned, 18 The Warren provides a prime location for seeing the New Year in with the St Ives firework display, all from the comfort of the cottage. It is a shame that you were disappointed with some areas of cleanliness and maintenance, but we do appreciate you getting in touch at the time to allow us the chance to rectify these areas. We will follow this up with the cleaner, so thank you for your comments and we are pleased this didn't impact your stay at all. Katy, Customer Services.

We were so sorry to hear you felt there were some changes since your previous experice at the property and we were very grateful you had highlighted this to us at the time of your holiday, although, saddened to learn you didn't want the housekeeper to reattend to rectify any areas of concern for you in order to get your holiday back on track as quickly as possible.

18 The Warren is a lovely little cottage, so near the beach and town.We loved the sun roof to watch the sea and boats. We didnt want to leave. See you again soon/ Thank you. Jane and Chrisine.

The best recommendation would be that we have booked the same property for next year . and just to add I rarely stay in the same place twice .which says it all .
Mr Hawley Jun 2022
Lovely cottage in a great location, would stay again for sure!
Ms Roberts Jun 2022
The location was absolutely perfect and the view from the decking area at the back of the cottage was amazing! Cleanliness lacking in certain areas of the cottage and just felt like it could do with a good deep clean, but apart from that point we loved everything about our holiday!

We are sorry to hear that you had been disappointed with the standard of cleaning on this occasion. This is not what we would expect for guests to arrive to, had we been aware at the time of your stay, we would have immediately sent the owners housekeeper back to address any concerns. We have passed on your feedback and since your stay, the owner has had a new housekeeper in place. We will book in a spot check to check how they are getting on there and to make sure that everything is as it should be. We hope to see you back soon and sorry again. Tanya, Customer Services

Excellent location.
Ms Thornberry Aug 2021
We absolutely loved our stay in 18 The Warren. The cottage is beautiful, had everything we needed and more. We took toys and books for our little boy but there was plenty at the cottage and also a Nintendo wii ?? The Cottage is in a perfect location, only 1-2 mins walk to Porthminster Beach and Harbour and shops/restaurants etc. The views from the roof terrace are beautiful and it was lovely to sit out with morning cuppa. Beds were so comfortable! The washer and dryer were very helpful as didn't need to pack as many clothes and could wash clothes before we came home ?? The use of the secure car park is great, some days we used Station Car Park just up the steps from the cottage but on days we didn't need the car we left this in the car park and was only 20 mins walk or can get a taxi. We would definitely stay here again! Thank you Aspects/Owners for a lovely stay.
Miss Britton Jun 2021

Great cottage. Plenty of room for 6 people as long as two don’t mind bunk beds. Location is perfect. We had a great stay and would definitely stay here again.
Mr Castro Apr 2021
We all had a lovely week in the cottage,there was plenty of space for the six of us,the cottage was close to the town and the beach.The kitchen was very well equipped with washer,dryer and full sized fridge and freezer.There were plenty of restaurants near us and although it was October the weather was mild and sunny the boys loved playing rugby on the beach.I would definitely come back to this cottage again.
Mrs Slavin Oct 2020
Attention to detail on this property, was poor. Sofas really uncomfortable, grouting etc in bathroom old & black, lights whose bulbs were not working. All this made for a less than comfortable stay & i think the owner needs to address these issues.

Eia Cottage is a delightful place to stay in a quiet spot but close to the beaches, harbour and restaurants. Everything was spotless and well appointed. The view from the deck is amazing and it was lovely to dine outside.
Mrs Claridge Sep 2020
Property is in a great location and has really comfy beds! As a party of 3 adults and 2 children we had loads of room to relax. Aspects were good to deal with during our stay too.
Mr Drake Aug 2020
We had a wonderful stay at this property ideal position for beach and town I would highly recommend
Mr Proctor Aug 2020
What a fantastic location. The deck upstairs had a great view of the sea and the house was furnished with care. Really loved it. A short stroll into st ives town and it’s all there. Sleeps 6 even though you’d think it was a small cottage, comfortably.
Mrs Bentley Jul 2020
Adorably cute little property in an ideal location, so quick to nip into the main areas! Loved how they've managed to do the balcony, and it was great to just sit and watch the tide movements in the harbour! Really liked the fact it has a private car parking space, even if it is a bit of a walk! Seems a good compromise for such a good location. Very reasonably priced aswell for 4 adults, would stay again!
Mrs Bennett May 2019
Excellent location. Very well equipped.
Mr Nadin Oct 2018
