    A tastefully decorated, clean and comfortable apartment. Very well equipped. Excellent location with the added advantage of a parking space. A short walk from the park and ride bus made it ideal for getting to and from St Ives town centre.

    Great view, almost everything in the property is great, comfy, clean. A lot of space and nice decor. We pretty much enjoyed our stay. Beds are great, pillows are a bit less comfortable than we prefer. They have a huge manual how to use things...

    Location was excellent. Easy access to the town centre/harbour. Terrific view. A real home away from home. Owner visited to advise us of an unavoidable power cut...lovely gesture.

    Die Lage ist ausgezeichnet und auch die Wohnung ist hervorragend. Alles war sehr sauber und mit Liebe eingerichtet. Die Wohnung ist recht gross und wir schätzten es 2 Badezimmer zu haben. Auch haben wir den Parkplatz vor dem Haus sehr geschätzt.
