Greensleeves - a house that sleeps 8 guests in 4 bedrooms

This beautiful seaside retreat above Porthmeor Beach is all you could ask for from a luxury coastal escape in the picturesque town of St Ives, with wonderful sea views framing its living area, and a lots of lovely outdoor space for warm weather relaxation.

Beautifully styled and spacious, Greensleeves is set over two floors and has an airy open plan living area upstairs with sweeping sea views where you can unwind, socialise and entertain. Four downstairs bedrooms (two of which are en suite) are sanctuaries for both post-beach relaxation and a great night's sleep, and all have their own Smart TVs.

Cornish holidays wouldn't be complete without some outdoor space to make the most of the west coast's wonderfully temperate climate, and this home has ample. Dine alfresco in the summer sunshine or savour evening drinks in the fresh sea air. A raised terrace overlooks the bay and is the perfect spot for a glass of bubbly, while the enclosed courtyard with its built-in seating and BBQ area is where you can get together after a day of surfing, swimming and sunbathing. Kids (and grown-ups) who are up for a bit of friendly competition can pass the time with a game of table football too, while dinner sizzles away on the fire.

With Porthmeor Beach attracting beach-goers and water sports fans all year round, finding parking in the area is often like finding a needle in a haystack, but this holiday home has space for two cars which means there's even more time for relaxation. Perfectly placed on the coast, St Ives is within easy reach of the stunning beaches at nearby Carbis Bay, The Towans and Gwithian, and for days out there are the historic sites at Hayle to discover or the South West Coast path to explore.

As a guest of Greensleeves - a house that sleeps 8 guests in 4 bedrooms, you'll find barbecue grills, a garden, and laundry facilities. The front desk is open around the clock.

This St Ives cottage is smoke free.
