  • Mark

    Lovely apartment over two floors View of the sea from balcony and bedrooms 15 minute walk to centre of St Ives - little longer coming back up the hill We really enjoyed our stay and would have loved a second week

  • Dian Marie

    Two aspects could be improved: the knives are useless; the mattress on both double beds need replacing. Sykes people were very human and helpful on the phone but I often had to wait for long periods on the phone and came to dread being told that my call would be transferred to another department - which would leave me hanging in space....

  • Elizabeth

    Brilliantly positioned, and a spacious, light, comfortable apartment. I particularly like the slightly quirky fittings giving it character and making it feel like a real home. Lots of extra little things that made us feel very welcome.
