"This is the second time we have stayed in this apartment. It is comfortable with everything we needed. The view is lovely from the kitchen window over to the island. We would definitely stay here again."
Christine Kerr
"We were staying for 7 nights at the apartment with 6 adults (couple and 4 adult children). Very spacious and clean. Nice open kitchen with all you need for cooking, dining-place and annex terrace. All bedrooms have their own (small) bathroom, toilet, television, ... The bedroom at the top floor is very spacious, has nice views, but there is not enough light in the associated bathroom for woman's makeup (that's the only small point of criticism we had). Nice and very spacious living room at top floor (television, wii, ...). The Wi-Fi works fine in the apartment. Shops and bakeries at 15' walking distance. Very nice beach, safe for children and with beach lifeguards (also 15' walking distance). Keep in mind that there are steep solves when you explore the area by foot (it is not recommended to use your car to drive in St-Ives downtown area). Keep in mind to make reservations in time if you want to go dining at restaurants or (famous) pubs in the Cornish region and even in St-Ives centre. We were lucky with the weather conditions and had a very good time."

Lovely first holiday to St Ives in a very comfortable and cosy apartment. Great views and lucky with the weather. Hope to visit again soon.
It was a great stay here, loved it. Lovely views of St Ives it was so lovely of you to give use some scones. Thank you
Great apartment, beautifully presented and well equipped with everything you need. Lovely touch to find a cream tea on arrival.
Fabulous week as always don’t want to leave. We have booked with CBH for a few breaks now and will continue to do so. The champagne in the fridge for valentines was a lovely treat and the kids loved the chocolates. Thank you for another fabulous week!

"I genuinely cannot recommend The Penthouse highly enough, it was without a doubt the best we've stayed in. We've been holidaying in St Ives every year since 2005 and Gallinas Point was a definite highlight. Your colleagues were very helpful with the booking and administrative arrangements. We extended our stay by an extra night and this was sorted with the minimum of fuss."
