St Ives boasts a choice of fabulous sandy beaches, a wide variety of excellent places to eat, and its long association with many famous artists is impressively manifested in the Tate St Ives. The renowned Barbara Hepworth Museum is tucked away a short walk uphill from the harbour, and a few yards further up the steep narrow street nestles Number Six, a charming, quietly situated terraced cottage with a magnificent view from just outside the front door, glorious St Ives Bay and distant Godrevy lighthouse artistically framed by the neighbouring rooftops. The white painted sitting-room leads through open doorways to the stylish dining room, and on to the attached kitchen. Outside is a little private patio. Up the typical cottage stairs are the bathroom, which has a bath and a shower, and two chic bedrooms, the double furnished with a gorgeous contemporary four-poster bed. The cottage contains many original pieces of art from the owner's diverse and eclectic collection, many with with local relevance. As well as wifi, there are televisions in each bedroom, and a smart TV in the sitting room. The is a DAB radio with bluetooth capability. Number Six is strictly non-smoking. We are happy to accept one small dog. We have a reserved parking space in nearby Barnoon car park (chargeable). This is essential in St Ives, where parking can be very difficult - we were on the waiting list for nine years, and they are highly coveted!
