Had a temporary issue with getting into the house but it was not at all stressful as we’ve been booking with Aspects for years and they always sort things out! Sure enough, it was sorted quickly. It’s always reassuring knowing that you have the back up of the excellent customer service they provide. Would recommend them highly!

Meander along cobbled lanes, dotted with traditional fisherman's cottages, and admire this quintessential corner of Cornwall.

Fabulous property 2 minutes walk to amenities Kitchen so well equipped to muster up whatever you would want. Only used the attic bedroom very stylish very very comfortable Living room comfortable with smart tv & dvd yet snug also comfortable ideal for chilling out to read etc.

Just Along is the best cottage we’ve stayed in. The property is very well equipped and to say it’s dog friendly its extremely clean. I would definitely stay there again. I would say it’s not suitable for anyone with mobility issues because it’s set over 4 floors therefore there’s lots of stairs.

It's great to hear how much the whole family enjoyed your stay at Just Along. As you have said, guests with mobility issues may not find this property suitable due to it being spread over four floors but we try to make this as clear as possible in the property description. Our bookings team is always on hand to make suggestions and recommendations if mobility and accessibility is a concern. We hope to welcome you back to St Ives soon! Phoebe, Customer Services.

Just along is a very well equipped and comfortable holiday cottage. The kitchen is particularly good with everything you need and a lot more! Also a high standard of furnishings and beautiful artwork as well that we loved looking at. Beds were very comfy. Heating great and cozy to come back to after a cold & windy walk in December. Fabulous location between the harbour and Porthmeor beach. Only negative is that family have to drop 2 or 3 levels to the basement to use toilet/bathroom. Main bedroom has a toilet ensuite though. Also on arriving at the cottage we found it was easiest to park outside The Post Office and carry our luggage the short distance up the alley.

With many of the traditional Cornish cottages in the heart of St Ives; layouts and stairs are often quirkier than modern buildings but packed full of character. We always try to be as open and honest as possible with our descriptions and photos, so we do hope that this layout was what you expected. We are delighted to hear that you liked Just Along and its fantastic artwork. Thank you for taking the time to send in your comments. Lucy, Customer Services.

What a fabulous property Just Along is . Tastefully decorated , it’s like staying home from home , it really has everything you need It’s warm and cosy , close to the harbour and the cleanest house we have ever stayed in in St Ives . Back entrance was great for the surfers in the family . I could keep going with the fab reviews. Thankyou all that make this house so special .

Just Along was an ideal cottage for our family holiday. It is well furnished to a high standard and everything worked. It was roomy enough for three generations in the house, without it ever feeling cramped.

The outdoor space out the back was super useful for rinsing sandy and salty feet and beach kit, and for hanging wetsuits and towels. The bathroom being on the same floor as the backdoor meant cleaning down the kids after a day at the beach was easy and kept the rest of the cottage clean and sand free.

The kitchen was really well stocked, with high quality appliances. It had all the kit we needed, and a big thumbs up for sharp kitchen knives, a rarity in rentals!

The beds and bedding were all comfortable. All slept well.

And the location is very central, walk out the door and you are either at the Harbour in seconds, or up and over to Porthmeor beach, so access to beaches was fast and meant popping back to the cottage was easy.

We had a wonderful two week holiday and highly recommend the cottage for anyone looking to do similar.

This property is lovely. Great location. Spacious. Modern, clean and well maintained. I will definitely stay at this property again. Aspects were very supportive in allowing key pick up from St Ives office rather than Hayle.????

Love the location, nicely decorated, has all the kitchen equipment, bedding, towels, etc that you need for a really comfortable stay. Wifi works well, heating works well and timed well. Like a home from home really

Just along is a beautiful cottage in lovely location feels home from home we had a fantastic week staying here we would book here again in the future

Beautiful property close to harbour shops pubs etc very well equipped steep slope up to property

Fantastic from start to finish! Can't fault a single thing, and can't recommend this property & Aspects Holiday enough. Thank you very much- we hope to be back soon!

Location, location, location. A beautiful property that’s furnished to a high standard and fully equipped with everything you need.

Very good location, cute little house that’s well equipped, but parking is a total nightmare.

Had a lovely week at Just Along. The cottage has everything you could wish for, is extremely well equipped, comfortable and was absolutely spotlessly clean on arrival. It is positioned perfectly for St Ives shopping and the beaches.

Just returned from another fantastic holiday in St Ives. Just Along is a great location right at the centre of town making it easy to access the harbour, porthminster beach and local shops/ bakery for provisions.

Great location, very clean, well equipped kitchen and nicely furnished in a contemporary Scandi style. We had a great holiday at Just Along and would definitely recommend it.

We have stayed here twice now and absolutely love it. Will definitely stay again in the future. Aspects are a friendly, professional and caring company who treat their customers with the highest of service and care.

Great property Aspect Hols very good car parking horrendous

Reply from Aspects Holidays

It's great to hear how much you enjoyed Just Along. Parking is unfortunately at a premium in St Ives; with many properties not having this facility. For those without this facility, such as Just Along; it is always worth looking into parking options beforehand on the local council website and looking into private parking availability, particularly for peak weeks. There is also a park and ride facility which some find useful. Please feel free to contact the team for any advice. Thanks for your comments, and we hope to see you back here soon.

Just Along is a fabulously clean, well kept, well equipped, spacious accommodation with high quality furnishings. The location couldn’t be more perfect, a real little gem ??

Best cottage we have stayed in.

Our stay at Just Along was really lovely. The house is stylish and modern yet snug and cosy. The perfect retreat in the middle of St Ives! Thank you
