About Harbour View House
St Ives is known for its harbour, sandy beaches and artistic character, and Harbour View House on Fernlea Terrace makes the most of that setting with rooms looking out over the harbour and bay. This adults-only B&B suits couples or those after a quieter stay, with en-suite bathrooms, free WiFi and drinks available in the room.
Breakfast is served on-site, along with lunch and dinner options, and there's a bar and snack bar plus outdoor seating for taking in the views. A 24-hour reception means arrival times are flexible, and free on-site parking removes one of the usual headaches of visiting a busy Cornish town.
Outside the door, St Ives offers walking and cycling routes, watersports, fishing, horse riding and a nearby golf course, along with pubs and restaurants within easy reach. It's a straightforward, comfortable base for exploring the town and coastline, with rooms that make the sea the main event.

What guests say
For the past five years, every time I visit St Ives, I make a point of dining at the restaurant at Harbour View House. I’m from São Paulo, Brazil, and this place has become a tradition for me. It’s amazing how the food keeps getting better every single year. This year I even took home a souvenir I bought a Harbour View House T-shirt! Everything here is exceptional: breakfast, lunch, dinner, and don’t even get me started on the cocktails. The views are breathtaking, and the atmosphere has a unique charm that makes every meal feel special. This time I brought some friends with me, and they were all amazednot only by the incredible food but also by the outstanding service. The staff are always smiling, friendly, and genuinely happy, which makes the whole experience even more memorable. I haven’t had the chance to stay at Harbour View House yet, but it’s definitely at the top of my list for my next visit.

Book here if you want to stay in an ok room but still pricey for the quality. This hotel does the trick for having a decent place to sleep in an average hotel room. The biggest let down was the amount and size of towels provided. I was given a large hand towel to shower with and no separate towel to use after washing hands in the bathroom. The staff were nice though and I was able to store my bag after my stay. The view from the room was also nice but the window was terribly dirty.

We had another amazing stay at Harbour View — our second time visiting the suite this year, and it has truly become our favourite place to stay. The views are absolutely stunning and make the whole experience feel really special. On Saturday night, we enjoyed fantastic live jazz music from Ru, which created such a great atmosphere. On Sunday, we had one of the best roast beef dinners we’ve had, with all the trimmings — absolutely delicious. What really makes Harbour View stand out is the warm welcome and attentive staff. Every visit feels personal, and nothing is ever too much trouble. We would highly recommend Harbour View to anyone looking for a relaxing stay with great food, beautiful views, and a wonderful atmosphere. We’ll definitely be returning again! 😎🫶💛

What a fabulous place to stay in St Ives! The welcome was great; we could park our California campervan on site (£6) before going for a stroll around the town. On return, our bags had been taken up to our room (4) which was spotless and comfortable. The view from the windows are unsurpassed; right over the town and harbour. Great cocktails during happy hour (4-6pm), then an outstanding meal from a small but interesting menu. Breakfast (included in the room price) was equally delicious. A superb visit in every respect. Thoroughly recommended. Thank you
