Guests say

Tremorva is a well-loved property in St Ives, boasting stunning views and a prime location for exploring Cornwall. Guests have praised its spaciousness, quality fixtures, and family-friendly amenities. While some guests encountered maintenance issues, the quick response to resolve these and the property's overall charm have led to repeat visits and strong recommendations.

The property generally receives positive remarks for cleanliness, with several guests noting it was spotless upon arrival. However, some guests reported issues such as dust, cobwebs, and unclean kitchenware, suggesting room for improvement in deep cleaning and attention to detail.

The location is highly praised for its stunning sea views and proximity to both St Ives and Carbis Bay. Guests appreciate the ease of access to local attractions and coastal paths, making it an ideal base for exploring the area.

Most guests find the property comfortable, with high-quality bedding and spacious rooms. However, some guests mentioned issues with squeaky beds and noise from the boiler room, which slightly detracted from the overall comfort experience.

Facilities are generally well-received, with a well-equipped kitchen and entertainment options for children. Criticisms include maintenance issues such as non-working showers and hot tub jets, and the need for updates in some areas. The prompt response to reported problems is noted.

There is insufficient information regarding the presence of thoughtful gestures such as gifts, and therefore it cannot be accurately assessed. No reviews mention such details, so this category must remain ungraded.

  • Anne

    This could not be repaired during our stay. The bedroom over the boiler room/ den was noisy due to the ‘plant’heating, solar inverter whirring. The main issue as per the complaint is mould in the main bedroom. It is not acceptable to be renting out a property that is potentially a health hazard. Cleaning around the headboard did not get rid of damp spores right by your head. Mould was also in the dressing closet by the clothes rail and this wasn’t cleaned. It should not be rented out until the issue is resolved

    We requested a travel cot, and were advised to bring bed linen, which was fine, however no mattress was provided, which took us by surprise as I wouldn't typically class a cot matress as bed linen. In addition, no hand soap in any bathroom, or cleaning spray for the work tops. This was disappointing as we had to go out and purchase this, when I'd usually have expected this as a minimum. In addition, no shower working in the main bathroom for the entire duration of the stay, which was disappointing; there were showers in the ensuites however not every member of our party had access to an en suite. That aside the property was spacious, and well maintained. The hot tub was also cleaned very regularly, which was impressive. Views from the property were stunning.

  • William

    The property was perfect for our family holiday, large bedrooms with comfortable beds, one bedroom separate from the others gave my daughter some privacy with her new baby. Lovely fully fitted kitchen with everything you would need, a large dining area and plenty lounge areas to enjoy time together.Private parking was ideal and the rear outdoor space was fantastic.
