73) Chy Meor
Some friends and I had a lovely week at this property! It’s ideally located for a beach break and town is only a 5 minute walk! Easily the best place we’ve stayed in St Ives and will be looking forward to returning in the future!
May 5, 2026Chy Meor is perfectly located on the door step of Porthmeor beach. The house is well appointed, had everything we needed and was cosy when we stayed for New Year. We used the slipway to unload on arrival and parked at the Rugby club for a fair price of £42 for the week. The stairs are quite steep within the property, the hand rails were useful. Each morning we made a cup of tea and took it to the bench overlooking Porthmeor, it was delightful. Everything worked well, showers nice and hot and easy to use. Beds were comfortable too, the double room is small but perfectly serviceable with good furniture to hang your clothes. The upstairs living space was great, big comfy sofa fitted all 4 of us on for film night after a takeaway. Thank you to the property owners for keeping such a nice place to stay.
