Guests say
Breakers Point in St Ives is a well-regarded holiday cottage, praised for its cleanliness, stunning views, and comfortable furnishings. Guests appreciate the well-equipped kitchen and the convenience of having a parking space, despite it being tight for larger vehicles. The property's location is noted for its proximity to the town and beaches, although the steep walk back is mentioned. The thoughtful touches, such as welcome packs, add to the positive experience, although they are not always consistent.
Cleanliness
The property consistently receives high praise for its cleanliness, with numerous guests describing it as spotless and immaculate. There was a single mention of finding hairs on the bathroom floor, but this seems to be an isolated incident.
Location
The location is generally well-received for its views and proximity to the town and beaches. However, several guests have noted the steep walk back to the property and the tight parking situation, which slightly affects the overall convenience.
Comfort
Guests find the beds very comfortable and the property well-furnished. There are a few mentions of an uncomfortable couch and steep stairs, but these are minor compared to the overall positive feedback on comfort.
Facilities
The property is praised for its well-equipped kitchen and the recent upgrades to the bathroom and kitchen. However, there are comments about minor maintenance issues such as loose taps and the need for sharper kitchen knives, which suggest room for improvement.
Thoughtfulness
Guests have mentioned welcome packs and the provision of essentials, which are appreciated as thoughtful gestures. However, as these are not consistently mentioned or guaranteed, the score reflects the variability in guests' experiences with these extra touches.
About this property
This modern townhouse in St Ives boasts sea views and sits minutes from Porthmeor Beach. Located in an enviable position, Breakers Point is well-placed to explore by foot the joys of Cornwall's most famous seaside town, and makes an idyllic sanctuary for family, friends and couples. There is an open plan living room with a home-from-home vibe with dining area and kitchen. The first floor hosts the twin (zip and link to king-size bed on request) and smart bathroom with separate shower cubicle, and the top floor the second bedroom with dual aspect sea vista. There is a sunspot dinky patio area at the front with bistro table and chairs for alfresco dining. St Ives is almost surrounded by the sea and boasts an array of golden beaches. The largest is Porthmeor Beach - a 5 minute downhill walk and great for surfing, swimming, sandcastles and the best sunsets in town. Book a surf lesson, reserve a table at the beachside restaurant or visit the iconic Tate St Ives gallery located next to the beach. Stroll into the hub of the town and discover cobbled streets with boutique shops, art galleries and tempting cafes, inns and restaurants. Head for the seafront and soak up the harbour atmosphere and spy a curious seal or dolphin amid the fishing and pleasure boats. Tall granite cliffs, wild moorland, hidden coves and fascinating wildlife are some of the wonders to be encountered on the south west coast path and the nearby landmark attractions at Land's End, St Michael's Mount and The Minack Theatre present opportunities for a very memorable holiday experience. Perfectly located for enjoying a myriad of coastal capers, Breakers Point has it all!
One of Cornwall's prettiest harbour towns, St Ives offers narrow streets, cottages nestling around the quayside, the Tate Gallery and Barbara Hepworth museum, fabulous beaches, superb shops, a thriving community of artists, great pubs and restaurants and much more. With its semi Bohemian lifestyle and romantic air, it's easy to see why this is the county's premier holiday resort.
