Family getaway
We had a great time, property tucked away from main road , convent for the bus into St Ives. Railway station close by to get further afield. Great for beaches and great restaurant nearby. Property spacious with lots of room for the family, never felt we were on top of each other. Would have benefitted from having fans in the bedrooms upstairs to keep them cool. We had a great family holiday.would recommend

Perfect stay with the family
We had a lovely stay for a week in the height of summer holidays. So much so we even dedicated one whole day resting and enjoying the comforts of the house within our itinerary. The property was well located with easy access to a Tescos, walking distance to Carbis Bay Beach and 2 minute walk to bus stop to go to St Ives.
The house was very clean, with all modern comforts supplied and even a welcome pack by the property management making our stay extra convenient!
My only qualm was the description of a trundle bed was advertised when we booked the property but this was not the case when we arrived, however we were able to make do this time with sleeping arrangements!
All in all I would still highly recommend this property if you’re looking for a convenient and hassle free stay during your holidays!
