Number Six - in the heart of St Ives - with parking
About this cottage rental
Number Six is our much loved holiday home in the centre of St Ives. Everywhere is an easy walk. Situated in Mount Pleasant, it is only a couple minutes from Fore Street, The Harbour, and all the beaches. It is charming, stylish, and captures the essence of St.Ives, with our own small collection of original local and regional art on display. Enter through the front door into the sitting-room, and then through an open doorway to the kitchen/dining-room, and outside, a little private patio, where there is enough space to hang out the wetsuits, and maybe have a coffee. The Kitchen is well equipped with everything you might need, and of course there is a dishwasher and washer / dryer. Up the cottage stairs is the fresh and light bathroom (with a bath and a shower enclosure) and two chic bedrooms. The double is furnished with a gorgeous contemporary four-poster bed, and the second bedroom has twin beds. The house sleeps four people, has full central heating, and unlimited wireless internet and smart TV. The house is very central, yet quietly situated. The World renowned Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden, run by the Tate Gallery, is just 100 yards down the lane, and we are close to all the local amenities, beaches and attractions. Number Six is an ideal base for a stay in St Ives, and the chance to enjoy a 'car free' holiday. There are amazing beaches, fantastic restaurants, and wonderful scenery all within a couple of minutes walk. All of our guests have enjoyed Number Six, and we have had wonderful feedback from them. There are many rental properties in St Ives, but we like to say that Number Six is a real holiday Home, not just another rental. We are happy to accept ONE dog. In the main season, we operate a FRIDAY changeover day, with weekly or fortnightly stays only, but try to be as flexible as we can at other times. Parking is at a premium in St Ives, but we have a reserved space in Barnoon Car Park, above the Tate Gallery. It is the closest car park to us, and only a couple of minutes away.We strongly recommend that you book this on your booking form by ticking the 'Parking' box.

Nice cottage, we enjoyed our stay, St Ives is just stunning! Good location, not far from all the main shops, cafes, pubs, and beaches! but on a very steep hill, not for elderly or unfit.
Cottage could do with a bit of TLC, in need of painting in lounge and landing, also really in need of a new stair carpet. We will most definitely return to St Ives.

Thank you so much. We had such a wonderful stay at Number 6 ♥️
The location is fabulous and the cottage is very well appointed. So handy to restaurants, cafes and bars. The list of local recommendations was great.
We loved how the cottage was decorated with all the wonderful local artwork and pottery. We ended up purchasing some similar items as a reminder of our time in St Ives.
We found the communication excellent and the check in and parking instructions easy to follow.
We would highly recommend this property and absolutely loved our visit. It was perfect - thank you again.

Over the last 20 years we have celebrated 10 Christmases in St Ives. This cottage was everything we hoped for: clean, very well appointed, great beds, and a super location. Every question we had was quickly answered and the instructions for everything were clear and concise.

Communication between myself and the owners was excellent along with the directions to the cottage and the carpark. The place itself had everything we needed (apart from a pizza tray lol) we ate out apart from this one night. It had dishwasher tablets, washing capsules,washing up liquid, dishcloth, plenty of coat hangers (I always take extra as there never seems to be enough but I needn't have bothered) tea bags, hairdryer, plenty of towels, we didn't need to buy anything. Also had the basics, salt, pepper, vinegar. We were left scones,jam,cream and a pint of milk which was fab as we were gasping for a cup of tea when we arrived. The cottage is small but was big enough for the 4 of us plus our dog. The stairs are quite steep compared to what we're used to. The shower was amazing, very powerful. The location is perfect as it's so central (3 or 4 minute walk to the harbour) but it's on a very very steep hill. We're not old ourselves and would class us as decently fit but was puffing by the time we reached the door so maybe not ideal for those who struggle with mobility. The road where the cottage is, is extremely narrow. We pulled up, unloaded our things then went straight to the carpark. Having parking is an absolute bonus. We discovered a better way to walk to the carpark (not so much of a steep hill to climb) walk up the road when you come out and take your first right, then left,then right which brings you to a main road and you can see the sea. Turn right, walk down the road and you will see the carpark. Takes 5 mins, if that..found it so much easier, especially if you're carrying bags for the beach. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at No.6.

This lovely cottage is just as described, and we truly felt at home away from home. Michael and Juliet were such wonderful hosts, entertaining a million questions even prior to our arrival to ensure our stay was perfect. They were highly responsive when we awoke to no hot water, with their repair person literally knocking on the door within minutes of Michael receiving our message about it. We were welcomed with scones and made use of the Nespresso and milk that were made available to meet the day with a warm latte. I only wish we were staying longer, and we would definitely rebook if lucky enough to return to St. Ives. We had everything we needed and then some. Thank you Michael and Juliet!

Number 6 is a little gem!! We have always stayed in hotels before and yet this visit we had our 25 year old son and a small dog in tow so renting a cottage made sense. We couldn’t have been more pleased with our choice as the cottage was extremely homely and absolutely pristine. The whole experience was seamless with Michael and Juliet who were the perfect hosts ensuring we had everything we needed and were happy with everything. Car parking options with the cottage is a huge asset especially I would imagine in high season as St Ives gets very busy . Attention to detail is apparent throughout the house ;
White bedding and fluffy white towels made it a home from home experience alongside the gorgeous eclectic art .
I would definitely without hesitation recommend staying at No 6 and will certainly return again !!
Thankyou again Michael and Juliet

The cottage was Situated close to harbour and restaurants which was very convenient but the downside of this was finding the cottage and unpacking your car in a narrow street and having a neighbour a few doors up taking pictures of our car, this was stressful but having said that we enjoyed our stay in your little cottage x

A hidden gem!
No6 is tucked away within walking distance of everything St Ives has to offer. This pretty terraced cottage Is painted white throughout and beautifully decorated with really interesting paintings...shells and a four poster bed hung with fairy lights!
Although most soft furnishings had been removed due to Covid the interior felt warm and cosy....a perfect spot to explore this part of Cornwall. Communication with Mike and Juliet ..the owners was exceptional.

Week in the sun in St Ives
We were very fortunate with the weather on our stay. The holiday was mostly about beach and surfing for our teenagers. As well as the beautiful beaches of St Ives we travelled to Sennen, Gwithian and Cape Cornwall. Lots of lovely meals enjoyed, particularly the Porthminster Beach Cafe. The cottage Is close to all beaches and the town. It is a very steep road so not suitable for all. Lovely to walk into town in the morning to the Yellow Canary for fresh pastries. We booked well ahead for the restaurants we wanted to go to but wish we had known about the cinema on Porthmeor beach. That looked great but we couldn’t get tickets. No problems with the house, it had everything we needed. Just wish the seagulls would be quieter in the morning!

Beautiful St Ives!
We've just come back from a relaxing and fun stay in St Ives. No.6 is the ideal cottage to stay in. A short walk from the beach and restaurants, we only used the car for day trips. As the cottage is in one of the residential lanes, it was very peaceful in the evening and during the day, you are surrounded by lovely neighbors. Micheal and Juliette were the perfect hosts with lots information before arrival and help as needed. We would definitely stay here again when we eventually return to St Ives.

Beautiful cottage in the heart of St Ives
From the moment we walked in, we felt really at home. The place is beautifully decorated with lots of lovely pictures and arty things.
All the furniture was very comfortable especially the beds.
You have everything you need in the Kitchen and also a good washer/dryer.
You are very close to the shops /restaurants which are located just down the hill.
The Cottage was very clean and tidy through out. It was lovely and we would very much like to return for another week sometime. Very pleased we picked Number 6 for our Holiday here.

Centre of St Ives
Close to Fore Street which is just down the hill (remember that walking back up).
Clean property, comfortable.
We booked this as pet friendly, car parking space which is a 5 minute walk away. If you intend seeing more of the area having a reserved car parking space is a must.
A nice place to stay and recommended.

Location was perfect and a very practical house.
We spent four fantastic days in St Ives and the surroundings. Our expectations were high and was absolutely fulfilled. We will not hesitate to come back to see the magic nature and galleries and eat the lovely sea food.

So good that do I have to recommend it? I may not be able to book it again!
From the message sent by the owners on the day of arrival, scones / cream and jam and milk etc in property ready for our arrival, to the excellent cleanliness and location - ideal getaway!!
The photos of the property are true to the layout and cleanliness of the address.
The owners very accommodating and friendly.
The location, albeit a little narrow for the car when unloading / loading on arrival / departure, could not have been much better. No need for a sea view when this close to the town and the bars etc that have the sea views! Just got to get out and enjoy St. Ives and the surrounding area.
This is one place I wouldn't really like to recommend for fear that I may not be able to book it again - it was that good!

Perfect holiday Cottage
No 6 is in a great position - a nice quiet road very close to the centre of St Ives .

St Ives is a lovely place and there are so many good places to eat .
The owners are excellent at keeping in touch with messages and advice if needed.
I would recommend No 6 to anyone

As we walked in to no.6 it felt like home. A lovely treat of jam & scones await us.
What a find this gem of a property is. Spacous and clean. Fully equipped. Within 5 mins walk of the harbour and shops. Prefect base to explore St. Ives.
The added bonus of this lovely property is having the car park space which took away the hassle and made for a very chilled out holiday. Looking forward to returning to St Ives.
