Lovely holiday home. Very clean. Well equipped kitchen. Comfortable beds. Mirror in the en-suite would be useful. Didn’t feel the living room furniture was that comfortable hence the 4 stars instead of 5 for comfort. Beautiful grounds with nice play park for children and woodland for leisurely walks. 15 minute stroll down to St Ives centre and taxi back about £6. We didn’t use any amenities at the hotel so can’t comment. We thoroughly enjoyed our week and would recommend. Thank you.

The house was lovely with everything provided. Our only problem was that the heating stopped working on the Wednesday after a power cut and we couldn't get it working again. It was a very cold couple of days.
