  • "A wonderful appartment."

    Fantastic views in an amazing setting. Our week here has been the perfect escape to recuperate after a stay in hospital. Would have given full marks across the board if not for the low settee which we found rather uncomfortable and difficult to get back up from. The fitted bed sheets were not deep enough so tended to slip off during the night. But everything else was spot on and we can’t wait to return.

  • "Stunning views over Carbis Bay."

    It was fantastic to see dolphins and seals twice throughout our stay. The accommodation was very nice. A very well kept apartment. Only minor fault was the frying pan set which could do with update. Nice to have the train station less than 5 minutes walk down the path. Easy access to St Ives. We liked it that much we booked for next year.

    Thank you for your excellent feedback. Sorry about the frying pans these will be replaced on the next changeover! Property Owner

  • "This apartment is placed in one of the most beautiful parts of the world and we very lucky to experience it for two weeks."

    The access to the coastal path, a train that is very inexpensive, takes you straight into St Ives and a central location to reach all the favourite locations in South West Cornwall. The apartment had a lovely feeling and was left very clean for our arrival. The living room window is the show stopper. Even on rainy days you can enjoy the beauty of the sea, local fisherman and the beach. I would 100% recommend this apartment no matter what time of year. We will be back.

    Thank you very much for your comments and leaving the apartment tidy. You are welcome to come and stay again. Property Owner
