Mrs Dove August 2017
Location , well equipped and clean , plus the added benefit of parking ,
Mr Allan August 2017
The Bolt Hole is a lovely quaint cottage, it is in a fantastic location, and the décor is perfect for the cottage, it is small so suggest that you are very good friends with anyone else staying with you as any sound carries however for a week's break in St Ives it was excellent. The parking is a nightmare and so suggest parking at the leisure centre where you can get a space anytime however I understand that parking will be provided next year which will be perfect.
Mrs Colwill September 2016
Good location, small cottage very well equiped.
Mrs Wright August 2016
Highly recommended for the level of comfort, facilities, decor, fixtures, fittings and perfect location. Perfect for a couple, maybe a bit tight for two couples. If you want to cook in, the kitchen has everything you could possibly need, dishwasher is a bonus. Compared to other places we have stayed this the best.
