2-bedroom cottage in heart of St Ives w/ parking

Location. Near everything, and has its own parking to boot. Clean

When we first arrived, we could not open the door. Apparently it has been locked from the inside by a bolt of some sort. Informed the owners, and they called staff to come fix the door. The staff came quickly and was able to help. The bathroom has a low ceiling. Book this property if you’re not too tall. During our stay, it rained. We found out that the main bedroom roof leaked. It dripped on the carpet and the foot of the bed. Took pictures and informed the owners via the mobile number provided so they could be informed and make the necessary steps to sort it. No response received whatsoever. Found out through reviews that the roof leak and the problematic front door has been an ongoing problem for nearly a year. So disappointed

How close it was to the beach and shops

It needs a full length mirror

Excellent location with parking and everything you could need. Near to beaches and shops but in a quiet spot.

Couldn’t get my bedside lamp or upstairs tv remote to work but these were minor things we didn’t care about really. One lady neighbour across the other side of carpark told me off for letting my dog wee in the car park at 7am when we came out of the cottage first thing which was odd

The host was very kind in accommodating an early check in and to let us store our bags before we left. The cottage is in a wonderful location for all the beaches (within a short walk) and has carparking for those who need it.

My husband had to climb in through the kitchen window with the help of the housekeeper to unlock the front door (which had got locked at the bottom part of the door from the inside by the cleaner or previous occupants) The window was very old and this wasn't really a very safe thing to do but we needed to get inside with our young kids after a long journey. There were some broken fittings inside like a set of drawers in the kids room with loose screws and wood coming off/sticking out. There wasn't quite enough bedding for the kids mentioned in our booking.
