  A lovely bright colour scheme make this apartment welcoming. The bedroom is calming and all windows in the apartment have shutters which gives it a new England feel. The bathroom has a drench shower which is perfect and then you look into the lounge and wow!! The kitchen has everything you need , absolutely everything. Again it has a new England feel and straight ahead the view from the French doors hits you! As you are up higher than the houses in front of you, you see Carbis Bay in all of its glory. You can see all of the coves in the distance like Porthkidney sands and various others that i can't name and you can watch the waves crashing into the rocks. You can see Godrevy lighthouse and watch the train below you snaking through the trees and disappearing into the tunnel. There is always something to see and it is ever-changing. There is a communal garden for the flats that you can sit in and enjoy the Peace. There are many different walks to Carbis bay, St. Ives, Lelant and others. You can walk from the apartment past the communal garden and down into Carbis bay. It takes 10 minutes or so. The View was lovely to stay in, comfortable, warm and cosy, beautiful views and with everything you could ask for. We loved it so much we are already booking for next year. 😀

  I asked several times before travelling down as to whether there was a iron and ironing board in the house as i had a family event to attend.

  Also, as the listing mentioned a pond but didn't show any images i asked if it was covered or safe with dogs about. I heard nothing back on either of these points. There was an iron and an ironing board but the board didn't have a cover. As for the pond, really think the word pond is stretching it. It was a large puddle in a stone. My dog liked to drink from it though which i discouraged him from obviously. The garden itself was lovely and well kept. Spent many a chilled hour. It has sun all day and really is a treat for this part of Cornwall. The house was like visiting your grandparents house. It had a real family owned feel, and was generally fine. There are lots of spiders but that didn't bother us. Really think though that a double bed rather than two singles in the backroom away from traffic noise would be an idea. There was dirty linen in a bag in the bathroom, and might have brought back some creepy crawlies with us but not sure if that came from the house. I loved the kitchen feel, and liked the way you could open up the door to the garden. Equipment wise it was all fine, feel the TV could do with an upgrade. All in all at the right price we would return!

  The location of the property is the main selling point. The property is good size and well equipped. We liked the decor and the attention to detail (art was beautiful and not just commercial cheesy beach paintings, books were interesting and helpful etc) The furniture was of good quality and comfortable. There were only a few points to note - there were parts that weren’t clean (i.e. lamp in the kitchen was greasy and sticky, cob webs on lampshades and in corners etc) We were there over Easter and it was quite cold at night as the quilts were thin. There was extra quilts and pillows but no extra linen so we couldn’t use it. And though having an allocated parking space is amazing in St Ives, please note that the space is very tight. Our car is average size and there were times when I’d park the car and not be able to get out of the space. These are all small things that can be easily fixed. Other than that, we had an amazing holiday and will definitely return to 49 St Nicholas Court and recommend it to anyone who will listen.

  Boundys House was wonderful even though on a very busy main road.

  It had masses of space downstairs and a lovely garden. Beds were very comfortable. What was missing was inability to open windows (apart from the front bedroom which I occupied, and the toilet) as they seem to have been painted over. I always have to sleep with the window open so I could achieve that but the bathroom and other two bedrooms had sealed windows. The kitchen was very well equipped and there was plenty of crockery and cutlery and everything essential for cooking. We arrived by train so were using public transport to get around and it was so easy for us with the bus stops just yards from the house. We did find it a bit strange that only one toilet roll was supplied for 3 of us for 1 week! Clearly not anywhere near enough. I had requested ahead of our visit for a hairdryer and was told that it would be taken out of the locked area for me, and indeed it was there on arrival.
