We had a lovely stay in this property. It's situated in a nice quiet area of St Ives, despite being so close to everything! You can see Smeatons Pier in the distance from the living room and are a short walk from the Harbour front and both Porthmeor and Porthgwidden beaches. We stayed with our dog who loved her first visit to St Ives. She settled well in this property and we would certainly look at booking this again.

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.

A very memorable experience for all the wrong reasons. If you're over 5' 8" be prepared to crouch through the front door and the upstairs bedroom

We are sorry to hear that you were not completely satisfied with your chosen property. A large number of properties within the heart of St Ives are traditional fishermans cottages. They are packed full of character inside and out, but often a little smaller, sloped or lower ceiling heights and layouts/stairs more quirky and steeper than in more modern buildings, so it is definitely an important consideration when booking a property like this. We always try to be as open and honest as possible, and try to give an accurate representation of properties within our photos, so hope that we have achieved that in this case, but we will continue to monitor feedback. We hope that you still enjoyed everything that St Ives had to offer despite your disappointment with these areas. Thank you for taking the time to send in your comments. Tanya, Customer Services
