Hübsches kleines Ferienhaus in zentraler Lage
Wir haben uns mit 8 Personen sehr wohl gefühlt. Die Wege zu den Stränden und zum Einkaufen sind kurz. Alles sauber und ordentlich (außer der Backofen). Die Gegebenheiten entsprachen der Beschreibung.

Good size family accommodation, Good location for beach and town.
Nice big family house, plenty of room and very good location. Couple of minor issues in my opinion was the state of the sofas which were old and tatty and uncomfortable, had throws over to cover them up, and the front and back patio areas were very untidy and over grown so couldn't sit out. Overall great holiday by all and would book again. Thanks

Another great stay
This was our third time staying at the property and once again it was a pleasure staying here. Everything you need for a stay in St Ives and the location is perfect for access to the town and the beaches. Will be booking again for next year.

Happily married with four wonderful children
Live in Shropshire but my heart is in St Ives Cornwall
Spent most summers of my life in St Ives and would rather be there than anywhere
Love ; My Family, St Ives, Paris, property, nature, antique dolls, art and life
And always try to live life to the full

Why they chose this property

I have spent most summers of my life in St Ives and since a child always dreamt of buying a house there. This dream came true in 2011 and I'm never happier than when I'm there.
4 Skidden Gardens is our precious family holiday home. A light and spacious Georgian town house built of Cornish granite located right in the centre of St Ives and only 100 metres from the sea!
We have so many happy memories of our holidays in this wonderful old house in its great location and one day hope to live in it permanently, but until then we would like to share it with you .
St Ives is magical . The light and atmosphere is so special ..like nowhere else , with it's five beautiful white sandy beaches and the sea a stunning azure blue and so clear ..
It is truly unique !

What makes this property unique

We love the fact that the house is so convenient for everything...in the very heart of St Ives yet located in a quiet row just 100metres from the sea!!
It benefits from having its own lovely south facing garden to the front ( a rarity in St Ives so near to the sea) and an attractive courtyard to the rear with an outside hot/cold shower for use when returning from a good day at the beach. It also has a fabulous balcony with wonderful harbour and sea views.
Westcotts Quay is just 100 metres from our doorstep and the famous Porthminster beach is just around the corner and on the very special days, when the tide reveals even more of St Ives' beautiful white sands, You can walk from here to Smeatons Pier over the harbour beach and to Porthminster without leaving the beach (please see photos)
