Damp/Smelly
Property in a great location but extremely damp and smelly. There was mould around the bathroom and the shower holder was broken - to add to this the tap was also missing parts and there were cob webs and large amounts of dust in most rooms. The top of one of the bedroom cupboards had old occupants shoes/socks on and was thick with dust. To make the stay bearable we had to spend money on candles and keep them lit all week.

Nice place in great location
We had a lovely week at Carbines, the cottage is a perfect base for exploring St Ives and North Cornwall - ideal for all of the local beaches (Portgwidden is our fav) and two minutes from the heart of the town & harbour. (It’s also two minutes from a local CO-OP store which is a bonus.) We chose to pre-book parking at the Rugby Club, to avoid wasting time looking for spaces around town - a great decision, being just ten minutes-walk from Wesley Place. All of the main living spaces in the cottage are lovely and comfortable, suiting our family perfectly: the open plan set up is ideal and the kitchen/diner the centre of most of time indoors. In the lounge, the sofas are both a good size and comfortable and the smart TV, DVD, and fast Wi-Fi are all great for film night in on (an unusual) wet evening. We booked particularly because of the added bonus of a games room in the basement with pinball and Bar-football - great for a family competition. Upstairs the bedrooms are all a good size, light and airy with comfortable beds. All booking and pre-arrival communications were prompt and clear, and a couple of minor issues we raised on arrival were swiftly dealt with - much appreciated.

Comfortable Home in the Heart of St Ives
This house has a nice feel to it the moment you walk through the door; it is light and airy. The dining kitchen is a lovely space, big and bright and very well appointed. Upstairs there are 3 large bedrooms, a double, twin and bunk. The double bed that we slept in was very comfortable. The downstairs bathroom is again bright and clean and with hot water on demand both bath and shower are welcome after a day walking the coast path. There are nice pictures hanging throughout the house making it feel like home. Being so close to the shops, restaurants, harbour and beaches makes access on foot very easy. Our host, Jon, was very helpful and quick to respond to our enquires. We can thoroughly recommend this house and hope to return ourselves one day

About the host

Hosted by Jon Rolfe

Host profile image
We currently live and work in Bristol but would love to live full-time in Cornwall one day. Until then, we hope you enjoy our house in St Ives as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

We chose a house in St Ives because it has many of the things that we love: a choice of beaches, each with their own characteristics and all within a short walk of each other, a wide range of places to eat including some outstanding restaurants and good art galleries.

From our house you can walk to any of 4 sandy beaches in under 10 minutes (we provide routes that avoid the hills!) ranging from calm and family-friendly to a great surfing beach.

What makes this property unique

Our basement playroom helps to keep the family entertained during bad weather. Complete with books, toys and games, it's also a good place to send the kids when you want a little time to yourself.

The vibrant centre of St Ives is right on the doorstep.
