August 17, 2026Location was amazing and cottage had a Cornish seaside feel which we loved. Well equipped and clear communication.
August 10, 2026What a dream to visit St Ives Cornwall. I completely fell in love with this place. We only had a few days stay hear so was only right to explore all the amazing restaurants and cafe this place has to offer even thought our accommodation more than had us covered if we wish to do so. The cottage was close enough walking distance to everything you need , kitchen was well equipped for all your cooking needs and the place was definitely a home from home with all the beautiful comforts. Such a gorgeous property to stay in. I can't wait to stay again. Highly recommend everything was perfect, went smoothly and Cornish Riviera Holidays was fantastic help. Very happy with everything no problems just great. We even toke the adventure out of St Ives to St Austell to visit the Lost Gardens of Heligan. What an experience so recommend we loved it and after the trian journey we toke a very simple bus ride there so easy and a real treat to see more sightseeing. Such an incredible few days away. Can't wait to return.
