Description
Situated in the heart of Downalong just minutes from the Harbour, Porthmeor and Porthgwidden beaches. Over 200 years old, Norway House Studio was originally built as a sail loft and then used as an artist's studio for many years. It is full of the unique natural light that first drew the artists to St Ives and draws them still today. Thoughtfully modernised to retain its original character and stylishly decorated with deep whitewashed granite walls and exposed timbers. The Island car park is just moments away making Norway House Studio ideal for a relaxing summer holiday or a cosy winter break.

16) Norway House Studio
The studio is lovely and light and bright and in very good condition. It's in the most perfect position in the town for popping in and out between visiting the beach, the wonderful St Eia cafe and Norway Stores, both a few hundred yards away. Probably not ideal for people who have lots of wet gear and are taking lots of showers as there is no dedicated area for drying things. We went in May when the studio was a perfect temperature, I imagine it gets quite hot in summer but it was much cooler downstairs where the bedrooms are so that would be a bonus in summer. Good value, we were very happy and it was beautifully clean.
May 24, 2025Norway House Studios was a fantastic base for our week in St Ives – amazing location just off the Main Street and close to the beaches. The Studio was really spacious with a lovely light lounge / dining area. Plenty of storage was a great bonus, including the outdoor cubby for beach gear. It was immaculately clean, beautifully styled and exceptionally well equipped in the kitchen with everything we needed. The only negatives were minor (view of the bins, no outdoor tap for sandy toes, no opening bathroom window) and we hope to return.
