Fabulous view, come sun or windy weather and rough sea. A little bit noisy with the flat roof in very heavy rain.

The views from the living area are outstanding. It is also quiet considering it is located by a popular walkway to the beach. We were there at the end of June before high season. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Location is fab. Unfortunately we werent aware that you could reserve parking at the nearby station car park which would have been ideal as the moment you leave it is very unlikely that you will get a space on your return. You would therefore have to park much further away. Therefore we did feel a bit tied to St Ives.

One word. Perfect! The station long stay car park was cheap as chips for a weeks stay! Approx 15, which can be paid on arrival. Fabulous location and stunning views. The cottage was a lot more spacious! Entrance area for coats, footwear and fishing tackle, keeping everything in one place before going upstairs to the accommodation! ARead moreccommodation super cosy and very comfortable, also very clean. Being able to have the windows fully open, seeing, feeling and breathing the ocean air was delightful and an absolute treat! Warm and toastie at all times! We have already recommended to others, and we are looking to see when we can visit again! Off season suits us better! A really great stay! One of the best! Thank you so much X Hide
