All our St Ives cottages are ideally located to provide easy access to the blue flag beaches, historic town, Tate Gallery and all the other amenities and attractions that make up ‘the jewel in the crown’ that is St Ives as described in the 'Australian lonely planet guide of Britain'.

Centrally located, our holiday cottages are ideal for anyone wanting to enjoy the St Ives festival. The 2012 St Ives September Festival will take place between September 8th and September 22nd 2012. Visit the St Ives festival web site for all the details and ticket booking. Sowena house is especially well placed for artists wishing to attend some of the year round classes offered by the St Ives Painting School which is located on 'the doorstep', details of courses are available on the St Ives Painting School web site and as courses run all year round it makes can make an ideal off season break.

All of our properties can be available at terrific rate reductions during 'low season' periods, and can often be available for short breaks too; it is always worth calling to talk about what you are looking for.
