This house is absolutely beautiful and the photos do not give it justice. The garden is a picturesque heaven. All bedrooms were absolutely beautiful. The kitchen was very easy to cook In and finally the two lounges were very cosy. My whole family were very happy here. There was only one very small concern we had as the floor boards are very thin so you can hear what everyone is saying downstairs and vice versa. But that didn't affect the absolute beauty of this house and the perfect holiday cottage. My family were slightly worried about the location thinking it might be on a main road and it would be a challenge to get to anywhere. But we were so wrong... The road is quiet. You can just walk left from the house down the road and a short path and your on porthkidney beach which I thought was beautiful and so did our dog who had never touched sand before. You could of course keep walking a long the coast to get to carbis bay or even St Ives but St Ives is slightly more challenging. There is also a pretty train to St Ives which takes 2 mins. Or if you fancy, it's a 15 min drive to Penzance and I truly recommend to keep driving and take a walk in porthcurno as it is Cornwall at its best....

This was our fourth visit to The Ship House and the age range in our party of eight was almost seventy years! The space, style and layout of the house and garden combined to ensure that once again we had a wonderfully happy and relaxing time. We feel very fortunate to be having a holiday in such a relaxing and inspiring environment. The service, both at the house and from Classic Cottages staff, was again excellent....

This is a fantastic cottage. It's a huge... but incredibly homely, a very comfortable house. There is an Aga in the main kitchen... not that I mastered it in a week, but lovely anyway. It has a huge garden with lots of interesting areas. Just need to watch the pond with tiny children. We had 3 generations staying... it was ideal for all of us. ...
