Accomodation & location were amazing, we would highly recommend this booking, and should we return to St Ives this would definitely be our first choice.
The booking was a smooth transaction with good communication - a fabulous all round stay for sure! : )
Mr Wood Oct 2023
12 Carrack Widden is a perfect spot for a couple. Easy to drive out of St Ives but also easy to walk to beaches, shops, lovely restaurants. Best of both worlds - home from home but great options to eat out! Would definitely return.
Mrs Elliott Jul 2023
Good comfortable apartment in a great location. The decor is a bit tired but everything works, and unlike many properties in St Ives there is parking on site. Good value for money.
Dr Brewer Jun 2023
This property is ideally situated close to St Ives town, also directly below apartment is beautiful Porthminster beach where you can get plenty of food and drinks. The apartment was very well furnished and kitchen well stocked. Added bonus car park underneath with numbered space.
Mrs Harris Jun 2023
A neat, well equipped property with very convenient, secure parking underneath apartment. (The allocated parking bay is quite tight to reverse into if all the spaces around are full.) A really good location providing easy walking into town, avoiding any need to drive into or around the busy, narrow streets. All the equipment and facilities were very clean, well presented and in very good condition.
Mr Anderson Jun 2023
A wonderful stay in a beautifully decorated apartment overlooking Porthminster Beach. Comfy bed, plenty of wardrobe and cupboard space, towels provided and a wealth of information about the local area, books and games in the lounge. Within easy reach of the town, beaches and train station. Dedicated parking space. Close to the road but very efficient double glazing keeps out all noise. Would thoroughly recommend this beautiful place.
Miss Mackney May 2023
The apartment was exactly as we would expect from Aspects properties. Excellent in every way.
