Overview
Property code: OC-PENLEE

Combining family comforts with seaside luxury, Penlee is a three-bedroom duplex apartment arranged across two floors. This well-appointed holiday home is located within Castle Village on the Tregenna Castle Resort.  The apartment overlooks the surrounding gardens providing a pleasant, green outlook. High on a hill, overlooking the harbour town of St Ives, the 72-acre resort is at your disposal to explore. Beautifully tended gardens abound with space to sit out and relax whilst breathing in the fresh sea air.

A stroll down the hill will take you into St Ives where you have access to several sandy beaches, the picturesque harbour, fantastic restaurants and cafes and quaint, narrow streets to explore. St Ives is a delight to visit all year round whether you sit wave watching from the protection of one of the beachside cafes in the winter or take a walk along the coast path in the summer to enjoy the stunning outlook. With various festivals held throughout the year you’ll find lots to do in the area or just come for relaxation and take the local train to explore the wider area.

Attractive apartment in a good location within walking distance of St Ives and Carbis Bay. Close to shops, restaurants and two local train stations. In a quiet location with three comfortable rooms and two bathrooms. Upstairs shower is very small with a low ceiling and is probably better not to bother using. The rest of the apartment is well furnisRead morehed including the kitchen. The apartment was very clean upon arrival. I'd say it's a comfortable place for 1-4 people to stay but might be a little uncomfortable for more despite the extra beds as the living space is fairly small. Overall would recommend if you prefer to be out of the bustle of the town with a better price point than central properties. Hide

The cottage was very clean and tidy. My family and I felt like home and we did have a great time there. The location is very close to the beach and the city centre.

We had a great holiday, the whole process was easy to book and once full payment was made we were given a very detailed instructions on how to get there and any codes we may need, this was also sent in a reminder 24 hours before our visit. We arrived and the place was as it looked in the pictures, the apartment doesnt have a garden although youRead more do have access to the castle gardens which are beautiful. You are just far away from st Ives that your not woken up by the seagulls but near enough to the beach about a 20 minute walk if that, although a steep hill on the way back. We have given some feedback about some minor defects that were found however we were contacted immediately when we left a message saying they could get someone to come a fix it. Hide

A perfect location for escaping the busy high season in the main town centre of St Ives whilst remaining only a short bus ride away. The castle grounds are stunning, the food is high quality at the hotel & the staff are extremely helpful. The only disappointment if I had to include one is the inability to use the castle pools during school holidayRead mores, as the rain persisted during our late June stay this would of been ideal for my children, however we were made aware before booking that this would be the case. Overall I would wholeheartedly recommend the Penlee property to all. Hide
