We had a fantastic short stay at Island View celebrating 18th, 21st and 50th birthdays. The house is very big and comfortable for large groups, and very well equipped. It is a steep climb back up the hill from the town but the views from the top floor are worth it. It was great to have parking but be aware that access to the parking area is very tight!

Properties in Barnoon/Carthew are fantastic for those bringing a car to St Ives. Three quarters of our properties here come with private parking and there is opportunity to use the Barnoon car park. Apartments such as those in the Carthew Court development are located in residential areas and have superb, elevated views.
Although you are still well located between Porthmeor and the town, self catering in Barnoon/Carthew allows you a lot more room to relax, with amenities such as WiFi and luxuries like sea views. Walk down the hill in one direction and you can visit the Tate and Porthmeor beach, or head right and you'll find yourself in the centre of town.

Held on the anniversary of the consecration of the Parish Church of St Eia in 1434 AD, Feast Day offers visitors to witness - and even join in with - some centuries-old traditions. A morning precesison led by the Mayor to bless the Well of St Eia. Following this, the Mayor will 'Hurls the Silver Ball' into a crowd of children who assemble on the beach below. The one who returns the ball to the Guildhall steps by midday receives a silver coin. In the afternoon the Mayor then throw pennies from the balcony of the Guildhall for children to collect.

Mrs Hulland August 2018
Great family house, great location - perfect
Mrs Simpson July 2018
We had a great time, multigenerational grandparents and children, ideally located for the beach and town. The kitchen was well equipped and the enclosed garden safe. The views from the house were breathtaking, we enjoyed several sunsets from the top floor.
Mrs Vallins July 2018
Lovely Place, very good furniture , very Lovely rooms and very good views
Mrs Brocks June 2018
Whole party was delighted with house! Our party was 10! Not a problem with all that space!!
Ms Jones June 2018
Have stayed at a number of properties over the years. This was well heated, showers excellent with plenty of hot water. Bedrooms were all a reasonable size. The dining area and kitchen coped well even with 10 of us! Property was clean and tidy. Great parking for a St Ives property although narrow entry for a 4x4! Within walking distance of beaches, pubs, shops and restaurants. There was even Sky Sports! And the WiFi was ok! Would definitely recommend.
Mr Howland April 2018
Beautiful light and bright cottage. Fabulous views, very cosy in the winter.
Mrs Booth February 2018
We enjoyed a really lovely stay at Island View being 9 adults and 2 children, the layout of the house was perfect for us and we really appreciated the additional touches such as the welcome pack, Christmas trees and decorations and the additional accommodation made for us with an extra guest. The house is furnished with modern fixtures and fittings, the beds were extremely comfy with lovely fresh linen. The open plan kitchen diner was a great entertainment space. The utility/shower room was ideal particularly for drying the dog after long walks on the beach. Thank you for such a lovely twixtmas and New Year in our favourite resort of St Ives.
Mrs Parton December 2017
Cottage was beautifully presented and the facilities were immaculate. We were in Cornwall for our wedding and having a lovely house to stay in for the week made it that extra special.

Fabulous house for large family's, there is something for everyone. The position of the house is very good as close to the beaches and town. We had an amazing family holiday in the most relaxing holiday house.
Mrs Mayo April 2017
Superb house for a large party of friends or family. Great kitchen and living room to gather to eat and plan the days events. Easy access to the town as long as you don't mind the hills!
Miss Brown April 2017
Had a fabulous holiday at Island View with family and dogs. Property has ample parking for 3 cars or more. Rooms are large with modern furniture and appliances. Lovely views from every window. 2 minute walk to beach and 5 minute walk through the lanes to Fore Street. Had a very enjoyable holiday.
Mrs Hall October 2016
The house was exceellent value for money but would not recommd this property for young children or the elderly due to uphill climb.

Thank you for your comments. We are glad to hear that you liked Island View; it is a great space for family/larger parties to enjoy, so we were sorry to read that you found that the uphill walk up to the property potentially makes it unsuitable. It is in a great location to enjoy views over the Island and the town but the uphill walk after a day at one of the stunning beaches of St Ives, is certainly something that should be considered. You can expect it to take a approx 10 minutes for most, but we hope that you found it worth it. The property is a lovely place to return to, and the walk down into town, via Porthmeor Beach enjoys amazing views all the way into town! Tanya, Customer Services.
Island View is delightful. Spacious and warm in the winter. Plenty of room for wellies or swimming gear. Great views and walking distance from Porthmear Beach and the Tate. We had a terrific time.
Ms Darch January 2016
Fantastic house, lovely location we had a great Christmas break.
Mrs Harrison December 2015
Good accommodation for mixed parties. Good facilities
M Simpson June 2015
Beautiful views and easy access to the local facilities. Cheap taxi fare for those members of the family who couldn't manage the the short steep walk back after an evening on the town.
Ms Price May 2015
Fabulous house, fantastic views, ample living accommodation and parking for large families. We visited as a family of 3 generations! We would all highly recommend this property to friends.
