Guests that stayed at this property said
The property generally received positive remarks on cleanliness, though there were instances where guests noted the need for improvement, particularly with dust and dirty dishes upon arrival. The management's responsiveness to issues was noted.
The location is highly praised for its quiet residential setting, proximity to Carbis Bay, and accessibility to local transport and amenities. The steep hill to the beach was mentioned, but overall, the location was considered excellent.
Comfort received mixed feedback. While many guests found the property and beds comfortable, there were comments about hard mattresses and small double beds. The addition of a mattress topper was positively received.
Facilities were generally well-regarded, with a well-equipped kitchen and good showers. Some guests suggested minor improvements such as bedside tables and outdoor seating. Maintenance issues like a non-working oven and lack of outside light were also mentioned.
There is insufficient information to score thoughtfulness accurately. While some guests mentioned the lack of a welcome pack, it is not clear if this is a standard offering or an occasional gesture. Therefore, it cannot be guaranteed.

The location was perfect being within a short distance of both St Ives, Penzance and the main A30. The station is a short walk down the hill which was ideal for jumping on the train to St Ives :) . On day two we had no hot water however the property management team were straight on it and sent an engineer out that day (even though he did blame us for the issue which was a little naughty as we hadn't actually touched anything)... Other than this and finding the gardener stood on the rear patio just before 8 o'clock one morning (I don't know who got more of a shock) we had a nice time and would certainly consider booking again.... Really pleased

The garden was perfect for them. My only comment would be that access via the back gate would have been handy so that we could have brought muddy dogs through to the tap in the garden in order to clean them up after muddy walks. (it seemed to be locked). The bungalow was comfortable and cosy and handily placed for Carbis Bay beach. The kitchen door is a bit sticky. All in all we had a great stay.
