"The Nook was very clean and presentable, the only drawback was the to & Broadband had poor connection and was unable to find BBC or ITV.
Easy access to town was very important. We would happily stay again.

"The Pod was amazing, we don’t think the photos do it justice! We had a very comfortable and enjoyable stay and would love to visit again. Kevin and Michelle have thought of everything and were excellent with communicating details for directions and check in/out times. The location is brilliant, so close to St Ives and Carbis Bay, and the main bus route is right on the main road. Would highly recommend to anyone considering staying here. "

We booked our 3-night non-refundable reservation through Expedia and the listing said that parking was included. When we received our welcome email from the property manager we learned that the free parking was only for stays of a week or longer. The parking lot is a 10-minute walk uphill from the flat, costs £11/day. The flat is cute although small, but very quiet with a comfortable bed and well equipped galley kitchen. The shower is a ridiculous contraption with lights and sound and various...

This was an amazing surprise. The views were outstanding! The accommodation was lovely and really served us well. Located steps away from the train station it was so convenient to get around. We would definitely stay there again and tell our friends.
