Fantastic location right on the sea front and near to all of the cafes. Lovely big sofa and flat screen TV in the lounge with Netflix. The newly renovated kitchen and bathroom were lovely. The shower was great and powerful. Beautiful fresh cut iris flowers in the kitchen which bloomed during our week stay.

Sweet house right in the middle of St Ives and all the beaches, shops and cafes . Bring ear plugs - the seagulls are noisy! Great for a short break. No freezer though which might be an issue for some .
