Views are the big part of staying here. Upon arrival it looks a bit sketchy w holes in side entrance and outside needing some sprucing . It's a bit run down ie mirror in bathroom was gone but holes and screws still there. . Rug in bedroom was stained . Kitchen was adequate but cabinets were delaminating . Steep narrow stairs to get to living Read morearea so not suitable for large or disable . Close to beaches via steep walks back but that's St.Ives . Close to walking paths . A bit of care would make this a wonderful stay instead of ok . Would stay again if above items were corrected . Keep in mind , god value if u considered how pricey stays are here in general. Good communication to office . Hide

The property is located in a very hilly area of St Ives with very steep hills leading to both Porthmeir beach and the town/harbour area. The property itself is at the top of the house and is also accessed by narrow and steep steps, potentially making it unsuitable for people with mobility/joint problems. The car parking area needs improvement, and Read morewe found it difficult to access and exit from. Hide
