Fantastic place to stay

"Once again, a very enjoyable stay at Glas Mor."
Gaynor Witchard

Review 01 2020
Beautiful uninterrupted views to a wonderfully light and spacious apartment

"What a fantastic apartment, the views are just perfect, we took our nearly 2-year-old who loved the open plan apartment and was in heaven watching the local trains go by.
Whilst he was asleep, we had our dinner on the balcony overlooking the incredible views, we felt relaxed and at home very quickly as did our son.

Excellent apartment with a fabulous view.

The view over the Bay from the huge windows and balcony is fabulous."

Review 06 2019
Perfect sea view looking towards St Ives harbour in a beautiful, large and comfortable apartment.

"Excellent apartment on the third floor with a large slide opening double glazed window in both lounge and bedroom giving the perfect sea view. The long balcony is accessible from both double bedroom and lounge. Two decent sized double bedrooms with fitted wardrobes and flat screen televisions with perfect reception. Very comfortable beds. Nice big private gated carpark with designated parking spaces. The apartment is reached via stairway or lift.
On a separate note, the lift was not working properly from midweek onwards. Although inconvenient, it did not spoil our enjoyment."

Testimonial 11 2017
"We had a fabulous week at Glas Mor. From the moment of our arrival (early) when we encountered your representative (Claire?) who was putting the finishing touches to the apartment for our stay, to our departure everything went according to plan and we felt completely relaxed and stress-free. The apartment was spotlessly clean on on arrival and beautifully appointed. All appliances worked as they should and all the facilities were first-rate. The location, with its proximity to St Ives and its ease of access via the St Erth Express, was ideal for our requirements and the unobstructed views of Carbis Bay defy my descriptive powers."

Tim Steward

Testimonial 09 2016
"It was our second time at Glas Mor and the apartment was a lovely as we remembered it. Really perfect. It was our first holiday since my son had a stroke last May which was a real milestone and the accommodation was great for him. He currently uses a wheelchair much of the time but can walk a few steps with a stick and so being somewhere accessible was a priority.
The apartment is beautifully appointed and the lovely welcoming provisions were perfect - we particularly appreciated the champagne!"

“We had the most fantastic 5 day break staying in Glas Mor, the standard of accommodation was excellent and the views just breathtaking!! We have enjoyed it so much that I have rebooked for next year within an hour of getting home on Friday! We are so pleased we decided upon coming to St Ives and rediscovered all this beautiful resort has to offer and will be coming back for many years to come. We have travelled the world and I must say the apartment was one of the very best we have ever stayed in with all the high standards of fittings etc and the stunning sea views, Congratulations to the owners for ensuring everything is in place for all your needs. We just wanted to stay a little longer! We think all the little extra things in the apartment were very nice to have i.e the books, cd’s and films were great, the beach train was great also to access when the walking became a bit too much.”
