Very good

If you're looking for central St Ives, this is the place.

The location of the property was brilliant, right in the main street and so easy to pop in and out of. About a 2 min way to anywhere in the town or the beach. Some great places to eat and drink literally just up the road. If you're looking for somewhere nice the Firehouse or Beer & Bird are great places and the best coffee was from Yallah right on the beachfront and a 2 min walk from the place. The property is also great if you like people watching as you can sit in the window and see right down the street. Also the Barnoon car park is very close and off-season it was free overnight so a perfect place to leave the car and quite cheap to leave it for the day if you are not leaving St Ives.

This is an older-style property and although it was nice and clean, quiet at night and had everything we needed it was a little dated.

Very good

Very good, the locks are NOT fiddly on the doors!, the stairs have a handrail, bed was comfortable

Location great, kitchen quite adequate, bathroom had good shower, bedroom fine Host very helpful.

smelt a bit 'doggy', 2 lights not working left note for cleaners. Searched high and low for recycling bags below sink as instructed. Amazon remote control needed for firestick when on HDMI3 was hidden away!

A cosy stay above the cobbles

A lovely cosy place above the bustling streets of st Ives. We loved the window seat watching the world go by. The hosts were so friendly and the place was clean and well equipped.

Parking and getting your stuff in is hard work so I wouldnt recommend this for anyone with mobility issues. This is typical of most places in st Ives however so its not a big deal.

Property had lots of character and in a central location. I'm guessing it's an authentic former fisherman's cottage and not some modern building,so it's a nice experience staying here. Very handy having a kitchen and was able to have the option of eating at our accommodation,especially with having children.

The following isnt our dislike,but may be a problem for others? My husband is 5ft 7 and his head fits just under the door frames like a made to measure suit. So anyone higher may hit their head if they forgot to bow a bit. Fore street is a bit like the oxford street of st ives in summer,so it can get a bit noisy with people in the day or the few passing cars at night. But we live next to a big exhibition hall,so are used to some noise. The apartment is smallish,but functional and didn't affect our enjoyment. Again,its the character of the property that we liked.

Superb

Fantastic location, great accommodation, perfect for our stay in St Ives.

Great location in the heart of St Ives, so close to the beaches, restaurants and Tate St Ives. Really enjoyed watching the world go by from the window seats, exploring St Ives and the flexibility to cook and eat at home. As described the property is small, but there was plenty of room for our needs with good sized kitchen and shower room. Main bedroom and sofa bed were both comfy

You can't shut the door to the front room - not a problem for us, but others may want to shut the door if using the sofa bed. Noise from the street was expected and not as bad as I thought it would be,

Good

The location was good, very close to everything, bed was comfy

The flat was small, we were only given one bath towel for a weeks stay, which was disappointing. I understand you're paying for the area, I genuinely don't believe it was worth the money paid.

Lovely Holiday Flat

Beautiful place, lovely beaches, lots of shops & restaurant's

The only concern I had, was the main front door lock, very flimsy, one shove door would be open, & also door to flat, should be stronger, it was just like lounge door with key lock, only because a man's clothes shop was below the holiday flat...
