Cool stay of the week: a former fisherman’s cottage in St Ives

We’re breathing in the fresh sea air for this week’s Cool Stay of the Week as we head to St Ives in coastal Cornwall.

With room for eight guests across four bespoke bedrooms, there’s enough space at Rockfish for the whole family plus some.

The master suite comes with a super king-size bed, sea views and a freestanding roll-top bath. Two of the rooms have double beds and the fourth room has bunk beds – ideal for the kids.

A restored fisherman’s cottage with a Scandi twist, the light and airy space is sleek and stylish with exposed stone work, local artwork, a log burner and a large L-shaped couch.

With views across Porthmeor Beach and alfresco dining, this seaside home is the perfect base for exploring the picturesque St Ives.

Have a picnic on the beach after your swim or head into town to explore the Tate gallery or Barbara Hepworth museum.

Porthmeor is also one of the best surfing beaches in Corwall so if you’ve ever wanted to give surfing a go, sign up to the surf school and catch some waves.
