Just a couple of disappointments, could not log onto wifi, plus electric tripped off once half way through cooking evening meal( this also happened to previous guest) possible fault on cooker. A small niggle kitchen bin not cleaned properly. Saying all this we would gladly stay again, and recommend to friends.

The treats provided were much appreciated, and the location couldn't have been better.

It was clean with comfortable furniture and bed. Having Sky TV gives a good choice of viewing,the only downside was at times the satellite signal was lost or weak. The downloadable content though worked very well. Of course the TV itself has a separate Freesat tuner so still good choice. The apartment itself does not have a sea view,but a short walk down the steps leads to the shared terrace with wonderful views across the bay to St Ives, Godrevy,and on a clear day up along the north coast toward Newquay. The beach is only minutes away on foot,be prepared for the hill back though! I used the train and access the station is good and walkable with a reasonable size case. Good parking is also provided. I would certainly use this apartment again.
