The Quirky Cottage is in an amazing location and offers lots of character, its just a short walk to the harbour and beach, perfectly positioned for our family including our two dogs. Inside we found it very well equipped which allowed us to have nights in as well as enjoying the numerous places to eat in St Ives. I would highly recommend.

Jun 22, 2024 #### A cosy cottage in an excellent location Lovely little cottage right near the beach, less than an a minute walk to the harbour beach. The house is really comfortable and freshly decorated. It has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Kitchen is well stocked with everything you need, which in some houses isn’t always the case. The phone signal and WiFi isn’t great so it’s a nice opportunity to reduce the phone and tablet usage for the stay. ##### Nick C. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Donna B. May 22, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Spectacular St. Ives We 4 adults spent 6 nights and found the apartment delightful for our needs. The third floor bedrooms with many steps could be daunting. The ground floor has a cozy sitting room and kitchen area, however the closest loo is on the first floor. The showers were particularly nice with plenty of warm water. The area is quiet and proximity of restaurants is close. There are many walking trails with spectacular vistas. ##### Donna B. Stayed 6 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sharron B. Oct 7, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Stunning Such a beautiful, comfortable cottage, they really have thought of everything thing here. Beautifully decorated with the perfect blend of comfort and style and the kitchen is fully equipped with everything you could possibly need. Perfect location for peace and quiet but 2 minutes into the main town. The gate at the front was an added bonus for us with dogs because we could have the doors open without the worry of them running out .I absolutely cannot find anything to fault about this property or it’s location and will definitely be booking again for next year . I have to say that the photos on the advert really do not do this gorgeous cottage the justice it deserves ##### Sharron B. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nathan L.

All appliances worked, beds comfy and great night sleeps had by all. Lounge was perfect place to relax and unwind. One of the best self-catering cottages we’ve stayed in and certainly one of our best holidays for a long time. A big thank you to the owners and staff. ##### Jeff M.

Whilst in an amazing location and well equipped this certainly isn’t a luxury cottage!! This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 6/10 Okay #### Joe C. Sep 17, 2023 #### The property does not have three usable bathrooms This property is quite shabby in places and could do with a proper clean. The bathroom in the top floor bathroom (the one with the bath) is not fit for use. The shower only has cold water coming out of it, despite a plumber attending during our stay and attempting to fix the problem. There is peeling plaster on the upper floor walls and the property is overdue a renovation. ##### Joe C.
