Excellent location with lovely view down across St Ives, the bay and island. Town is a short walk away down some steps, and only slightly longer if taking a longer route avoiding them. The room was comfortable and clean when I arrived and all facilities including the shower were fine.

The use of touch keypads to access the location and room is always slightly unnerving! A neighbour had terrible issues accessing their room, and on the last day my room didn't open the first time I put my door code in and only opened when I keyed it in a second time - this happened on several occasions ad is always slightly worrying!

A great house to stay. I was a solo traveler and came for a week. Location is great, you can see the sea, shops and facilities within 3 mins walk, there is even a fitness centre up the road. The property was very clean and welcoming, loved the bathtub ☺️. Also the kitchen had all necessary facilities including fridge/freezer, washing mashing and tumble dryer. I met various people from different cities and had a nice chat. The house is also very quiet and peaceful. Highly recommend. ✨

The room was clean, as were all the premises. It was great to see a washing machine. The kitchen was spotless as the bathroom. I had an issue with the flights of stairs, and the management resolved this immediately and to my benefit. I was very thankful for resolving this unforseen issue. I recommend this holiday let especially the rooms, with a view.

I would of liked to be informed about the many flights of steep stairs as there is no lift and that is understandable as the house is not conducive for one but I would stress that renters should be made more aware of this unless I did not read about it.

Simple and hassle free service. Very clean, great clean shower. Lovely room. Great little table for making brews. Keypad entry means no having to take a key or card out with you. If I'd have stayed any longer I would've made more use of the facilities like washing machine. The property caters for all.

Very small stain on floor near coffee table. - did not affect stay. Would have loved a fan, I did get very hot in the night. And the single opening window with security catch (opens about 3") couldn't cool the room.

Loved the size of the room and the views. Great location close to town. Loved having access to a kitchen for washing dishes and to keep food in the fridge. My son enjoyed Netflix and the bed was really comfortable. Quiet room. Very spacious.

The room felt cold. Heating couldn’t be regulated. Also shower wasn’t working properly to set the temperature right. We also couldn’t find any more supplies of coffee and milk to use in the room.I would recommend the room for a summer stay but not for winter.

I've stayed here before a few times. It suits me to be independent. Good to have use of washing machine & kit kitchen.

Didn't see any staff. Room not serviced - ok for myself as solo traveller -x2 towels left - not sure if two of you staying. Do need to be relatively fit - lots of stairs to top - sometimes lights not coordinated to go on - take phone, or torch to kitchen. 80 steps down to town - & up! A cab ( taxi stand at bottom of steps opp Coop) at end of day a gd option & not very expensive.

We loved this place! Beautiful views over St Ives from outside as well, and everything was clean and worked perfectly. Great communial kitchen downstairs, and a cosy room. Perfect location just ouside the hustle and bustle of the village centre, but only 4 minutes to the nearest grocery store. Great communication with the host before the stay.

The locks on the room doors were a bit unstable at times and it took some time to figure them out but we managed.

It was very clean, cozy and comfortable. Excellent shower room, wonderful double bed, super view from the window. The room had everything you need for a rest. The kitchen is shared, but very functional - spacious, with a washing machine, dishwashing machine, microwave oven, electric kettle, dishes and other necessary little things. The nearest beach and the city center are about 10 minutes away on foot, which is very convenient.
