Bed and Breakfast Holiday Accommodation St. Ives, Cornwall - Edgar's

Quality Ensuite Bed and Breakfast in St. Ives

Four Star quality ensuite Guest Accommodation

One of Britain's Best BandB's (AA) and named in homage of the man who helped Bernard Leach set up his famous pottery in Higher Stennack, Edgar's offers quality ensuite accommodation in St. Ives, Cornwall's leading resort, The Guardian's Seaside Town of the Year, 2007.

With its exclusive on-site parking, Edgar's is within easy reach of the Leach Pottery, Tate St. Ives gallery, St. Ives Harbour, superb beaches and the town centre "down'long" as well as Land's End, Eden Project, Heligan and the National Maritime Museum Cornwall.

Personally supervised by Judith and David Tremelling whose hospitality experience extends over more than thirty years, Edgar's is as ideal for touring spectacular West Cornwall as for exploring the cobbled streets and golden sandy beaches of St. Ives itself.

Combining the charm of Edgar Skinner's original house with modern convenience, Edgar's quality has been recognised by the AA's 4 star Guest Accommodation award. Breakfast is always carefully prepared and cooked to order on Judith's claret red Aga range; each guest room has its own ensuite facilities and many little extras appreciated by our discerning guests.

Open from Spring to October for holidays and short breaks, Edgar's is now a non-smoking house. Each of our seven centrally heated en-suite guest rooms has a complimentary beverage tray and colour television.


Amazing golden sandy beaches, the bustling town centre, picturesque St. Ives harbour and Cornwall's most scenic St. Ives railway branch line are all within about 15 minutes' walk from Edgar's. To help you explore the Rosamund Pilcher country around St. Ives there is free parking in our grounds throughout your stay and many coach tours (and buses for Zennor and Land's End and Penzance) stop right outside.

BED & BREAKFAST ACCOMMODATION

The original part of Chy-an-Creet, the house you see as you enter our drive, dates from c.1923.

The lounge is to your right as you enter the front door. Originally the dining room, it benefits from a recent extension which gives a quiet, light area in which to write, watch terrestrial widescreen television or read. On the shelves, there are plenty of books to borrow if you wish.

The bar lounge occupies the original drawing room. It has a variety of refreshments including delicious fruit juices and cordials. The hotel is open only to our guests and their friends, hence the "private" hotel status. The original fireplace has been brought back into use for a real fire on cooler evenings. Feel free to toast your toes whether you wish to drink or not!

The breakfast room, next to the bar, in the extended west wing of the hotel, is where you'll probably start your day if you haven't already been for a stroll on the golden sandy beach in the early morning sun. The servery is spread with a range of cereals, fruit, fruit juices and natural yoghurt to start you off on the right foot, then your selection of freshly cooked items, teas, coffee and toast from the menu are served at your reserved separate table between 0815 to 0915 daily.

On the First Floor we have four of our en-suite bedrooms, each with central heating and its own private shower, WC and colour television. Each has a refreshment tray, tissues, soap, other toiletries and fluffy towels. The beds are made ready for your arrival with 15-tog duvets and freshly laundered sheets. There are also 100% wool or Witney Cellular spare blankets hidden in the wardrobes, "just in case"!

The remaining four en-suite bedrooms, also centrally heated, are easily accessed on the ground floor.
