Mermaids 3 - Sea-facing property, direct beach access | Cottage in St Ives
3 Bedroom Cottage in St Ives
Once a ship captain's residence, the cottage has been beautifully transformed into a stylish seaside retreat where days are spent drifting between beach, harbour and terrace. With the town's restaurants, galleries and sandy beaches just moments away, you could easily leave the car behind and immerse yourself fully in coastal life from the moment you arrive.
Oak floorboards flow throughout the property, while calming blue tones echo the surrounding coastline. Thoughtfully chosen artwork and colourful furnishings bring warmth and character, creating a chic beach house atmosphere that feels both elegant and relaxed. Yet despite the beautiful interiors, it is the sea views that command attention at every opportunity. A spacious dining room with long dining table and distinctive pink Philippe Starck-inspired chairs, has doors that open directly onto the terrace, making it easy to move between indoor and outdoor living. Here, guests can take in uninterrupted views across the beach and bay below. Whether basking in the sunshine with a morning coffee, enjoying post-beach drinks with family and friends, or settling in to watch the sun disappear beneath the horizon, this is a space designed to make the most of its remarkable setting.
Mermaid 3's upper floor bedrooms are all beautifully furnished with quality bedding and comfortable interiors, offering relaxing spaces to retreat to after a day spent on the beach or exploring St Ives. Contemporary bathrooms with sleek fittings and clean-lined design add to the space on offer.
Bamaluz Beach sits just below the property and, being quieter than some of the town's larger beaches, offers a more peaceful spot by the sea while welcoming dogs all year round. The Harbour is quite literally a stone's throw from the front door, while Fore Street's collection of restaurants, delis, bakeries and galleries can be reached within five minutes on foot. Neighbouring Porthgwidden Beach is just a three-minute stroll away, while Porthmeor Beach, its popular café and the Tate St Ives are around six minutes from the property.
Mermaids is a five-story home which can be booked as two individual holiday cottages, Mermaids accommodates parties of up to 10. Mermaids 3 is the upper half of the house and is kept completely private from the downstairs property, when booked on its own.
