About the Local Area Dottie's Cottage and Arnie's Studio are located in the heart of St Ives. Whilst the street itself is quiet and tucked away it is just a short stroll from the shops, harbour, beaches and art galleries. Spend time at the working harbour, where you can see the seals that visit. Take a fishing trip or a boat trip to seal Island or Godrevy lighthouse and maybe see some Dolphins along the way..... or maybe you prefer to sail. There is lots to do. There is an array of restaurants to choose from but book up fast as they are ALL very popular. We'll leave details of a few of our favourites at the cottage for those of you who are new to town. There are four golden beaches to choose from. Porthmeor beach is good for surfing and has life guards and a surf school through peak periods. The other beaches are more sheltered. Dog friendly beaches available year around, (please check for details as some are seasonal). The art galleries draw many to St Ives. The Tate is probably the largest gallery in town and is found just 200m away from Dottie's Cottage and Arnie's Studio above Porthmeor beach. Artists are drawn to St Ives for its said 'special light'. Walkers would be interested in the coastal paths offering spectacular scenery along the way. Northbound to Carbis bay is beautiful and suitable for most walkers. We have done this many times with our small children. South towards Zennor is beautiful but provides much more of a challenge! There are many other attractions within easy reach of St Ives such as the Eden project and the Seal sanctuary. What ever you choose to do during your stay you are sure to have a magical time in St Ives. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Free offsite parking - Car not required ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bathtub - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shower - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Fireplace - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Stereo - TV ### Outdoor areas - Dock - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming cats and dogs only - One pet total ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In a village - Near the bay - Near the sea - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Cycling nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Sailing nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Windsurfing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Garden ## Similar properties ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/103000000/102420000/102412200/102412167/fdf03b41.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Cosy cottage near to Porthmeor Beach and the Tate Saint Ives - Washer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 1 review CA $301 CA $792 total includes taxes & fees Nov 1 - Nov 2 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-01&endDate=2025-11-02&selected=102412167&PinnedHotelID=102412167&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/110000000/109370000/109367600/109367543/423213d7.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Offshore - Carbis Bay Carbis Bay - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 3 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-20&endDate=2025-10-21&selected=109367543&PinnedHotelID=109367543&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach nearby](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/108000000/107250000/107242900/107242873/b7fbe2b7.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 3 St Nicholas Court - St Ives St Ives - Ocean view - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-20&endDate=2025-10-21&selected=107242873&PinnedHotelID=107242873&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/103000000/102120000/102112100/102112009/8712f2f7.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Tathra Beach Cottage - a cottage that sleeps 5 guests in 3 bedrooms St Ives - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 8.0 Very good 4 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-20&endDate=2025-10-21&selected=102112009&PinnedHotelID=102112009&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/101000000/100690000/100686300/100686236/b3ef9401.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 5 St Ives holiday home in Cornwall.
