A beautiful place to stay, with lovely views over town out to sea, the high standard of cleanliness and quality of furniture and linen very good. Accommodation very spacious for family holidays and little welcome extras so thoughtful, would return without doubt the best we have stayed in St Ives in 42 years.

The Old Bakery Flat is a beautiful space and the owners have gone to great lengths to decorate it with interesting paintings, pieces of art and stained glass, however we felt that flat was rather 'style over substance'. For example, whilst there are a series of 5 huge stoneware jars under the TV, there's no tea pot. There are lovely things to look Read moreat, but it is lacking in the essentials that would have improved our stay: no little bowls to put nuts or crisps in, no trays, no boards for cheese... no dishwasher, etc and yet there are 11 egg cups! Why 11 when the flat only sleeps 6? Elements of the flat were delightful, like the spacious sofa under the glass roof, which allows you to bask in the sun and enjoy the views across the roof tops of St Ives, but again, other elements were sadly lacking. We have a king-size bed at home, so this meant the double beds felt very small. There's room in the master bedroom for a king-size bed, and I think most people expect this now. The bath towels feel old and thin, and in my house would be used as hand towels! They're too small - bath sheets would be nice. Hide

An amazing find with stunning views of the town and harbour. We loved the upstairs space and quality of furniture etc. The bifold door made up for lack of outdoor space. Comfortable and roomy for the five of us. A central location but quiet.

The flat is wonderful, it is a real haven, both incredibly stylish and comfortable, and so well located in the centre of town.
