Fabulous house and location

We have just returned from a fabulous holiday at Birdsong. The holiday was to celebrate my husband's birthday and we were three generations. The house is very spacious, well equipped and was clean and welcoming. It is a short walk to a lovely clean beach and the grandchildren loved it there. The pool table and football game provided lots of entertainment and competition. I would recommend a stay at Birdsong to everyone and hope to stay there again before too long. Melanie provided all the information needed before our visit and my deposit was returned very promptly. A beautiful house and I can't find fault with it.

A wonderfully theraputic break

Wonderful property- breathtaking views, easy access to the coastal path, beach and shops. My mobility was poor on arrival but improved with every day we stayed in this amazing place. If I didn't feel good I could even gaze at the view from bed!

Gorgeous home with a spectacular view of the sea

We stayed at Birdsong for three nights in March and it was perfect. It's a large house that accommodates big groups, so we never felt on top of each other. It has everything you could possibly need; multiple bathroom facilities, a big kitchen and living room and a pool/football table to keep us occupied after a long walk or while waiting for the rain to clear. We immediately felt at home. Best of all was the view of the sea which is breathtaking and totally unexpected. The house is a short walk to the white sandy beach and blue sea. Definitely one of the UK's hidden gems. St.Ives is also a lovely little place and I especially enjoyed my trip to the Barbara Hepworth museum and sculpture gardens - not to be missed if you are a fan of her work or sculptures generally! I hope to visit again very soon!

A wonderful family Easter week

we had a fabulous family week at Birdsong. The pool table was in regular use and the location and wider facilities were greatly enjoyed. More than lived up to our expectations thank you!

About the host

Hosted by Melanie

We are a family of 6 who enjoy all aspects of beach life, eating out, good coffee and generally having fun with snooker championships and badminton competitions.

Why they chose this property

Birdsong has jaw dropping views and when my children and I first saw the house, I just couldn't get them past the garden, so they stayed outside while we viewed the house ! That wow factor has never dissipated and we would love you and your loved ones to experience the sense of relaxation and peace that come from our home.

What makes this property unique

Birdsong is large spacious and very comfortable home with good WiFi a great kitchen and a thoroughly enjoyable garden. There is space for all generations to have privacy and yet lots of social space with a large open plan living area and surround sound TV.
