Seren House in the centre of beautiful St Ives with parking for two cars.

Seren House is in a brilliant location and provides a light, comfortable and high quality retreat at any time of the year. It's just a short 5-10 stroll to all the beaches in St. Ives, so ideally placed for surf as well as walks, restaurants, pubs and shops - but still far enough from it all to enjoy a quiet getaway.

Seren House is well equipped and spacious, making it the perfect base for extended families holidaying together, couples and keen surfers, with lots of storage for boards and wetsuits and an easily accessed downstairs shower room.

Set over three floors it boasts five attractive bedrooms, three bathrooms and an en-suite WC for the attic room as well as sea views from the upper floors.

At the rear of the house is a large, steep, terraced garden with fantastic sea views.

We have off-road parking for one medium and one large vehicle. Additional on street parking may be available by purchasing daily residents permits but please request well in advance. There are also several nearby car parks.

St. Ives gem

Spacious and comfortable - convenient to everywhere - host is very responsive and accommodating - parking is a pain, though, and needs a better description of how steep the streets are and the best approach to the parking space - need a clear statement of fireplaces being decorative and recycling not being an option - would stay here again. Many gratitudes!

Nice house, central st Ives location with parking

House is in a central location and feels like a family home - some really nice decorative touches. It is well equipped and was clean apart from the crockery snd pans… but I guess that’s down to previous guests. We weren’t expecting any but there isn’t really any usable outdoor space and the garden above that leads to the car cannot be crossed so you do have to walk round … most of what we did was in St Ives so not an issue for us. We did find it very noisy on the street side - we had enough room to move to the bedrooms at the back of the house but if you fill the house you need the ‘late to bed’ers and the sound sleepers at the front of the house!! We were there in a super busy week and I dare say there might be less motorbikes doing laps and late night shouting people at other times of the year!

Great Location close to the centre and all beaches. Host was very helpful and informative.

The property was exactly as described. We had a enjoyable week with our two children (18 and 16 years old) who enjoyed the freedom to be able to walk to the town. My mum and brother and his wife also stayed and again it was great to leave the cars (managed to get a 4x4 and an estate cat in the parking area) for most of the week parked up. We did visit Porthcuno Beach as well as Penzance and Falmouth to get the ferry to St Mawes as well which is definitely worth a trip. Overall a great week.

A good week

We had a good week, great weather. Lovely large property. Very clean. Close to St Ives centre. Parking some distance away up hill. With Covid, meals for 10 in restaurants was difficult or impossible so needed to cook in the house. The kitchen equipment e.g. baking trays were perhaps insufficient for such a large group with differing needs (ages 9 months - 69 year old). We had two water problems a sewage blockage (previous tenant?) and a flexi pipe in the downstairs shower room. The sewage blockage was responded to by the owner very quickly

Very convenient and close to St.Ives centre.

The whole experience was very easy and convenient to book. Communication with the owners was prompt and friendly . The property is literally a 5 min walk from the harbour. The peace of mind of having two dedicated parking places is great. Although it is quiet a climb up the steps to it. Lol We dropped family and bags at the front before taking the cars up to the parking spaces. Unfortunately the BBQ listed is no longer there, so perhaps take one with you. Finding disposable ones proved near impossible. Overall we had a fantastic holiday and hope to return in the future. Seren House would definitely be a consideration. Thank you to Gavin for his help when having to rearrange, due to the COVID restrictions.

Great property

Really well equipped house. Rather late check in and early check out but other than that we couldn’t fault Seren house. Good communication with the owner who always answered my queries immediately. Also, location was great. Very near centre as described - up a steep hill but didn’t prevent my 85yr old mum walking to the beach every day. Would happily stay again.

What a lovely house in a perfect location. This was just what we needed after lockdown restrictions. Shame the lively pubs couldn’t open and sometimes hard to get meals out due to places being closed. We all hope to stay in the house again & didn’t want to leave beautiful Cornwall.

Right in the centre of it all...

Two families (total 9) stayed a Sereen House for 7 days. The property was immaculately clean, had everything we needed (despite COVID 19 restrictions) and all information was provided to enable us to stay safely. We loved being in the centre of Saint Ives, a short stroll took us to the town, beaches and stunning views. This house is ideal if you want somewhere that feels like home and with two families having 3 bathrooms really helped! The only thing we missed was an accessible garden or outdoor space to sit and have a drink or let the dogs roam. However, being so close to town meant that we just had to go out and discover new places (and cafes) so it wasn't really a hardship! Gavin was very responsive to any questions we asked during our stay. A lovely home from home in a stunning part of the country.

Glorious St Ives (in the rain)

Perfect long weekend in St Ives (despite the rain). Seren House is so close to all the town action; everything is literally at the end of the road, and all the beaches/pubs are walkable/staggerable. There was plenty of room for all (6 adults, 2 children/teens, 1 hound) - everyone had their own space, which always makes things go more smoothly, and three showers meant no queuing in the morning. The house is beautifully decorated, and thoughtfully kitted out (apple TV for kids /2am Trivial Pursuit match for the olds). We were all very comfortable, and quickly felt at home. Parking was a bonus (after quick drop off of bags at the front door). Really couldn't have asked for more for our family get together. Thanks Gavin!

Fallen in love with St Ives

Two families big summer holiday, 10 of us in total and we had the best time. St Ives is beautiful, friendly and the perfect holiday town. The house was fantastic, perfectly located, with all mod cons that you’d need whilst away from home. Fitted us all in very well. Good space for 10. Think 12 could have been a bit of a squeeze. Great number of bathrooms, good living area. Again, the best location, so close to town and sat between all the beaches. We’ve all had the best holiday. Thank you for having us.

Perfect family home in St. Ives

Rarely to you get to stay in a property that exceeds your expectations. Seren House exceeded ours. It was the cleanest and most welcoming property we’ve stayed in. Everything we needed was provided and the home itself had so much space for our entire family of 6 adults. The location could not be more perfect either as it is just a very short walk to the center of town and beaches. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this home and would love to stay there again in the future.

Family togetherness

Seren House, St Ives, was a great place to stay. It was close to the town centre enabling family to pop out for coffees, walks and snacks. There was plenty of space to chill out and family evening meals were fun round the big table. The children had space to play and enjoyed walking to the beaches. Parking space for two cars was a bonus. Seren House accommodated us perfectly (7 adults with two three year olds and a baby) for our week. All our queries before our visit were responded to quickly. A great stay.
