Stayed for a few nights over new year. Had a large room with sea views which was excellent. Clean, good food and the hosts couldn't have been more helpful. Would definitely stay there again More

We have just spent a wonderful two days in a room overlooking the sea. Shirley and David couldn't have been more helpful. They went out of their way to accomodate us; even allowing us to keep our suitcase in our room and our car in the car park long after we were meant to check out. I felt it was... More

The breakfasts were plentiful and very appetising. Some residents didn't quite get the gist of the car park protocol at the back but it wasn't... More

PLEASE do not take any notice of some of the idiotic negative comments about this family run business. You will have to go a long way to beat this place for value for money. It is a traditional British medium sized hotel with a variety of rooms some with an amazing sea view. The owners are very welcoming and helpful,... More

We stayed here on bank holiday weekend in May 2011. We did not book prior to going, just called them on the way and no other options so stayed here. We paid £72 for a night. The rooms are not bad, decent sized, No LCD TV at that price. Breakfast is standard English, but could be done better. However, I... More

I stayed at this hotel for one night. The hotel is ideally situated near the St Ives train station. I recommend you throughly familiarise yourself with a map before you begin your journey into finding it. Be careful of the narrow roads and on-coming traffic if walking there too. If you have heavy luggage I recommend using a taxi. From... More
