Slantways is an intriguing traditional fisherman's cottage nestled in the heart of St Ives, Cornwall, just a short distance from the picturesque Harbour. This beautifully refurbished property offers stunning 180-degree views over the rooftops, combining modern comfort with the original quirky character of the cottage. Ideal for couples, it accommodates two guests and is perfect for those seeking a cozy retreat near the coast in the South West of England.
The ground floor features a generous country kitchen, adorned with timber flooring and equipped with a gas-fired Rayburn, large pine dining table, and ample storage. The kitchen retains its vintage charm with original tiling and an old Belfast sink, alongside modern conveniences like a small electric oven, microwave, and fridge. The Rayburn not only provides warmth during winter visits but also creates a welcoming atmosphere after a blustery day at the beach. Additionally, the bathroom includes a cottage bath and a ceiling rack for drying wet suits and laundry.
Ascending a dozen wooden stairs to the first floor, guests find a galleried sitting/bedroom area that boasts high beamed ceilings and large windows offering exceptional views of the harbour. This spacious area runs the full depth of the cottage and is furnished simply yet comfortably with a double futon settee, a wide single sofa bed, and directors' chairs. The original wide floorboards and cast-iron fireplace add to the cottage's charm, while a small TV provides entertainment for those quiet nights in.
Slantways is ideally located for those wishing to explore the vibrant culture of St Ives. Nearby attractions include the St Ives Museum and BoatHouse Theatre, alongside notable landmarks such as the Wayside Museum and Chysauster Ancient Village. For evening entertainment, guests can visit the Acorn Theatre and Gwennap Pit. The surrounding area also offers opportunities for outdoor activities, including game walks and birdwatching, making it an excellent choice for nature enthusiasts and culture seekers alike.
