Penhallow

Superb location, beautifully appointed and every detail was thought through. Penhallow felt more like a home than a holiday rental due to its attractive fixtures and decor. The little outside terrace and parking were the icing on the cake.

A beautiful, cosy and well furnished cottage. Comfortably sleeps 6 adults or in our case, 4 adults and 2 children. Lovely modern en suite bathrooms and kitchen. Perfect location for access to high street and beach front. Would highly recommend using island car park for both long stay parking and a close enough location for unloading. Would definitely consider returning next spring.

We had a great week at Penhallow over Christmas with the whole family (parents, grandparents and kids). The cottage is kitted out really well with modern appliances and it was nicely decorated for Christmas. Even though it is an old fisherman's cottage, it didn't feel cramped for 6 staying, including 4 adults. The kitchen table extends as well meaning we could have Christmas lunch with plenty of space. Its location is really convenient, right in the heart of St Ives and meant my parents could walk around town without too many steel hills to walk up or down. It is a short walk to the Mermaid which is one of our favourite restaurants. Unloading from the car on the Wharf wasn't too much of a problem either. Would definitely recommend.

Communication was excellent and they even let us know the cottage was available early which was a lovely touch. Comfortable, stylish, clean and cosy. A great way to explore the area especially as we didnt have a car but there was so much to do and explore. The cottage is situated right in the heart of the town …perfect! Would definitely stay there again! Thank you.

We had the most wonderful week staying in Penhallow. The cottage exceeded our expectations and was immaculate. The cottage is in the heart of St Ives but as it's tucked back from the harbour, it was very quiet. We can not wait to revisit.

Fab property in a brilliant location. Close to all of the town beaches, as well as restaurants/bars for food & shops etc. Really well equipped & best of all the master bedroom being in the cellar was so quiet!! No seagulls waking us up. We'll definitely be back. 

Another fantastic stay with a property from the ever reliable and impressive Orange Roofs. Penhallow is our 4th stay with Orange Roofs and our 3rd in the same square on Mount Zion. The location being right on the harbour is incredible and perfect for a young family for easy access to the beach, ice cream shop and the Sloop Inn for a well earned pint of Korev to end the day. 

The house itself is to a very high standard and finished brilliantly in a cosy, modern and clean style. The downstairs master bedroom was particularly welcoming instead of being up high where in St Ives you can be woken up early by the morning chorus of the resident gulls. Being on the ground floor (you enter the property on the 1st floor), this meant we had the best sleep we've had in St Ives. 

The private garden at the front of the property (which is actually the back of the neighbouring properties and therefore very well secluded) was incredibly handy for all our beach equipment too. 

The only downer was that Mount Zion Coffee was closed due to getting a new roof meaning I couldn't wake to my morning Ava'Banana but it just means we'll have to return again next year. ;) 

Penhallow is in an ideal position being in the centre of St Ives but in a quiet pathway/alley with little or no passers-by which makes it very peaceful. The cottage has been beautifully renovated and is extremely comfortable and well fitted out with all that you would need for a superb stay. The little terrace was great for an evening drink or barbeque. We had a week but wish it had been more. My wife and I came with our son and 2 year old grandson. We were so close to the Harbour, Porthgwidden and Porthmeor beaches as well as the shops, restaurants and cafes it was easy to leave the car and walk everywhere. We will most certainly be back with our daughter, son in law and 2 grandchildren who are 7 and 5 years old. The three bedrooms and two bathrooms make an ideal cottage for a stay with family or friends. I could not recommend this more!

Brilliant. Penhallow was in the perfect spot for us, literally 30 seconds from the beach (grandkids with us). It was bright, clean, and well fitted out with everything we'd need. Lovely rooms, and very comfortable beds! And it was quiet, despite being so close to the beach area. When we go back to St Ives, it'll no doubt be the first place we look to for our stay.

Absolutely stunning property located close to all the amenities, we couldn't fault it at all and Orange Roofs were brilliant, everything was as described with no issues, we would definitely go to this property again.

We have just returned from a week in Penhallow, through Orange Roofs, the house was beautiful and was in a perfect location. They had supplied everything we could possible need to make our stay perfect. Orange Roofs were amazing as usual, form the messages we received on arrival, right through to our departure date. We have been coming to St Ives for years now, and this was one of the nicest houses so far, we would highly recommend it,.

beautiful property, superbly considered. the rooms are well proportioned and all amenities are extraordinarily well appointed…NOTHING is 'just for renters', rather every appliance and piece of kit is what you would choose for yourself..be it the oven, cooktop, dishwasher, tapware or even the carving knives… such generosity of spirit. we adored penhallow and being part of the warm open st ives community.

Perfect comfort with excellent service. Penhallow was perfect very comfortable beautifully decorated and very well equipped. It's in the perfect spot, everything is in spitting distance while also feeling like you can escape easily to the quiet.

Penhallow is the quintessential Cornish cottage with a little bit of glam thrown in. It's been the perfect warm and cosy retreat for us in some pretty stormy weather! So much care and attention has been lavished on this little retreat and I'm certain it won't disappoint! Great stay in a great place. One big thank you!

Beautifully furnished cottage ensuring a comfortable ,relaxing holiday. We loved everything about our stay at Penhallow. The cottage was beautifully furnished to provide the maximum comfort for our stay. My daughters loved the basement bedroom and very much regarded it as their 'girl cave'. It is in an ideal position for the harbour, shops and restaurants and the proximity of different beaches. I would have no hesitation recommending Penhallow to other holiday makers. We can't wait to book again!

We stayed at Penhallow in St Ives last week, what a lovely cosy , luxurious, clean , cottage it was. just off the harbour tucked away, a few minutes walk to so many restaurants and pubs. We were delighted we found Orange Roofs to book our stay, very friendly and helpfully staff which we have passed your contact details over to our friends.

Had the best holiday staying in the lovely penhallow cottage in st Ives, this holiday cottage has everything you need it is fully equipped in the kitchen with a lovely comfortable lounge area and three very comfortable bedrooms and being right on the harbour what more can you want.

Lovely house, really well kept and nicely decorated. Steps there a bit awkward checking in and out but not a massive issue. Parking on the harbour is interesting but actually I always founds a space. St ivies itself it just absolutely packed, the main streets full of people almost all the time. Perhaps a sign of the times but it wasn't relaxing to be there at all. When you get on the beach it's great, lovely beaches close by. Highlights were the Tate and also a beach further out for surfing lessons NT Gwithian it was a bit more relaxing. Minak theatre worth booking to look around and the beach nearby too again, more relaxed, and absolutely stunning. We managed to eat out twice and would recommend Porthminster kitchen and the Searooms very highly. Even though it's so busy the people of at Ives were very welcoming. The house is great but I'd skip st Ives for a while.

Discreetly tucked away yet right in the heart of St Ives Harbour, we found Penhallow to be the perfect base for our week long stay. Easily accommodated a family of 5, all mod cons and very tastefully furnished and decorated - we had a fantastic trip. Highly recommend!

Very well positioned in the harbour area. Stylishly comfortable and spotlessly clean.

We stayed at Penhallow for the 2nd week of our Cornwall holiday. The house has a fantastic location, literally a stone's throw from the harbour. Comfort-wise, the house is perfect. We knew that there was going to be some renovation done before we arrived but we didn't realise they would be doing the entire house so it was a lovely surprise! It's a 3 story house that has been renovated and refurnished from top to bottom. New kitchen, new bathroom, new carpets, new furniture and newly decorated. The standard is very high and the furnishings, fixtures and fittings are lovely. The owner has clearly put a lot of effort in and obviously has a keen eye for detail. The kitchen has everything you could possibly need, all brand new of course! There are 3 TVs, excellent wi-fi and if Alexa is your thing, then there's two of those as well. All in we had a great time and very much enjoyed staying at Penhallow.

We loved this cottage. We had 4 teenage girls with my husband and I. There was plenty of room. The bedroom on the lower floor has its own on suite which was like a second master. The two other bedrooms on the top floor were lovely as well. The mattresses were very comfortable. The kitchen had plenty of room with seating for 6. It was also fully stocked with kitchenware and glasses. What we loved most about the cottage was the location. We were 50 yards from the beach yet not on the beaten path. We had our own patio to enjoy as well. We will definitely be back!
