We stayed at Lazy Wave over the New Year period. The house was much nicer than the pictures suggest. We parked in Barnoon Carpark for the week which was close by and accessible. Be warned that the carpark is regularly attended so make sure you are up to date with payments. We used an app to pay. It's about a 5 minute walk to Porthmeor Beach and less than that to the shops but you cannot avoid steep hills for both journeys so you might need to consider this for anyone with mobility difficulties. The younger ones in our group did a couple of surf lessons on Porthmeor Beach while we were there. The staff were really friendly and provided all the kit and equipment needed. We were lucky enough to have really mild weather while we were there. The house was clean and tidy and there are nice views from the attic room. There were 4 adults and 2 older teenagers in our group and the house felt spacious for this number. The only drawback would be having only one bathroom/ toliet. Regardless of this, we would definitely stay here again.

Lazy Wave is a house that doesn’t disappoint. The views from the attic bedroom were amazing. The house is very comfortable and we had a very relaxing break.

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.

Mr Hopkins Sep 2021
Lazy wave is near perfect. Sea views. Very close to town. Beautifully equipped. You do need to be fit to get up the various ways to barnoon terrace. In many ways it's the house we always dream about lowning . It was perfect for our party of 6 ranging from 2 to 74.
Mr Fieldhouse Aug 2021
Beautiful property very near the town. Would recommend, however there is a steep climb back up to the property when walking back from the town.
Mrs Brookes May 2021
We had a wonderful time at Lazy Wave. The cottage is very comfortable, spacious, well equipped and beautifully decorated. The outdoor space is a real bonus, catching the autumn rays while eating outside is such a treat. The teens walked less than 5 min to their surf lessons and St Ives buzz is 200m down the road. We absolutely loved the cottage.
Mrs Molliet Oct 2020
We had a very good holiday in the lazy wave wood go again
Mrs Glanister Sep 2020
A fantastic large family home in a great location with wonderful views from the Attic Bedroom. A prefect space for families with teenage children.
Mrs Capers Nov 2019
Another fantastic stay at Lazy Wave! Beautiful house in a quiet location but only a few minutes walk away from town and the wonderful beaches of St Ives. Nice decor and comfortably furnished, feels like a real home from home.
Mrs Bell Apr 2019
Fantastic location, views, spacious open plan light and airy. We have stayed in many properties in st ives and lazy wave has been our favourite! Very comfortable beds lovely crisp white bedding.
