    “Lovely house in a fab location!”

    We were a family of 5 (2 parents, 2 children and a grandparent). The house was suitable for all. Lots of space and the open plan worked better than I expected -we have family nearby and they were able to visit us. Lots of films and games which we took advantage of due to back to back storms meaning we didn't get out as much as we had planned. The sofas are soft for relaxing in the living area, but firmer in the conservatory if preferred, and the large dining table is great to seat everyone ...

    We were a family of 5 (2 parents, 2 children and a grandparent). The house was suitable for all. Lots of space and the open plan worked better than I expected -we have family nearby and they were able to visit us. Lots of films and games which we took advantage of due to back to back storms meaning we didn't get out as much as we had planned. The sofas are soft for relaxing in the living area, but firmer in the conservatory if preferred, and the large dining table is great to seat everyone around. The kitchen has everything you'd need and more. The tea, coffee and milk provided on arrival were much appreciated! The bathrooms were clean and had mini soaps etc. Showers good and bath amazing! The beds are all zip up which is in the description, so you do feel the join in the doubles. We all slept OK though. Hot tub was a hit and used most days. The garden and parking are great features to the property as I'm informed there aren't many of either in the area. At most a 10 minute walk to Porthmear beach one way or the town centre the other direction (a bit longer coming back up the hills!) We are certainly considering returning. A couple of tips if you do come here - follow signs to Tate St Ives from the A30 (it avoids the town center); book evening meals in advance; go to the surf school; visit St Ives bakery; walk around all the seafront and Harbour. Enjoy this wonderful part of the country! Spernenwyn has everything you could need as a home from home. The only things we missed were oven gloves and a bottle brush to clean our reusable water bottles. One thing to note is if you have younger children all the external doors (5 around the property) can be opened from the inside.

The property

Discover this wonderful three-bedroom home, Spernenwyn, which is perfectly situated in the picturesque town of St. Ives, Cornwall. Spernenwyn welcomes six guests to completely take in Cornwall's best seascape thanks to off-road parking, an enclosed garden with a hot tub, close proximity to local facilities, and sea views. After unloading your personal items, relax on the soft sofa in the roomy open-plan living area or sun room while your partner works with the amazing assortment of appliances in the well-equipped kitchen. Set the table in advance of family meals or go outside to enjoy an outdoor gathering in the nicely landscaped garden. Plan your agenda for the coming days while you relax and speak with friends while enjoying your favourite beverage as the sun sets in the horizon. For some much-needed R&R, take a soak in the bubbling hot tub, which is perfect for relaxing your aching legs after a long day. Retire to the ground-floor shower room to wash the day away as the evening comes to a close or choose the super-king-size master bedroom with its very own en-suite freestanding bath, ideal for unwinding or preparing for the day. The Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden, the Tate St. Ives, or the Penwith Gallery both have impressive collections that you can peruse in the morning. You can also choose to relax on the pristine sands of Porthgwidden Beach or take a leisurely stroll around the picturesque St. Ives Harbour. Spend the day in Hayle, where there are numerous shops, pubs, restaurants, and the Hayle Heritage Centre, or visit Godrevy, which is maintained by the National Trust and features a sizable sandy beach, dramatic cliffs, and numerous coves. You're in a prime location to explore Pendeen, Praa Sands, and Porthleven's pleasures, so you'll never run out of things to do here! Take a great trip to Cornwall with your loved ones and make Spernenwyn your perfect base.

About the location

ST IVES

Penzance 6 miles.

One of Cornwall's prettiest harbour towns, St Ives offers narrow streets, tight-packed cottages nestling around the quayside, the Tate Gallery and Barbara Hepworth museum, fabulous beaches, superb shops, a thriving community of artists, great pubs and restaurants and much more. With its semi Bohemian lifestyle and romantic air, it's easy to see why this is the county's premier holiday resort. The surrounding area has much for the visitor to see and do with abundant wildlife, fabulous coastal walks, top quality surfing and the Celtic mysteries of the Land's End Peninsula are all within easy reach. A superb destination!
