Guests say
Trevose boasts stunning views of St. Ives and Porthminster beach, with guests praising its prime location and cleanliness. The property is well-regarded for its proximity to the beach and town, and many have enjoyed the comfortable furnishings and well-equipped spaces. While some guests noted issues with maintenance and parking, the overall experience is highly valued, with special mentions of the helpful owner and the peaceful environment.
The majority of guests found the property to be very clean and well maintained, with only a few isolated comments on specific issues that did not detract significantly from the overall positive perception of cleanliness.
The location is consistently lauded for its spectacular views and convenience to the beach and town centre. The challenging parking situation due to narrow roads is noted, but does not significantly impact the high regard for the location.
Guests generally found the property comfortable, with particular praise for the beds and living spaces. Some guests mentioned issues with specific pieces of furniture and the challenge of stairs, but these are minor compared to the overall comfort experienced.
Facilities are appreciated, especially the well-equipped kitchen, although some guests mentioned dated appliances and a desire for upgrades. Maintenance issues like plumbing and lock problems were raised, suggesting room for improvement.
The owner's provision of a comprehensive information pack and items such as tea, coffee, and sugar were well-received signs of thoughtfulness. However, as these gifts are not consistently mentioned across all reviews, they should be considered a delightful bonus rather than an expectation.

As we were staying for 9 nights and my husband canât go out much we had ordered food to cook. I was disappointed that the fridge was so tiny with no freezer compartment and there was no washing machine but I may have just assumed it would have them. Unusual in a holiday flat. Bedrooms are very nice and comfortable. Amazing views and good location from town.Also very quiet apart from the dogs downstairs!

Would recommend a clear out of duplicate and / or mismatched kitchenware, e.g. no need for 8 chopping boards, 6 x empty tea, coffee, sugar tins etc. It would free up plenty cupboard space and give a far greater feel of a clean, well kept holiday home. Would recommend improved WiFi too. One of the two windows in the lounge area seems jammed and the blind in the twin bed room is broken. With just a few tweaks this would easily be a solid 5-star property to stay at but regardless of the minor observations, would absolutely recommend and consider staying again.

Facilities great for a couple. Milk, tea and biscuits provided but a spare toilet roll would have been welcome! The stairs were a challenge with two suitcases but worth it for the views!
