Beautiful house in a fabulous location. Perfect place to celebrate my 60th with family. Great kitchen and dining area, comfortable social spaces, good facilities for all ages. Very easy access to beaches - we were able to walk to and fro in our wetsuits and shower off outside on our return. Hot tub was a bonus to restore aching limbs after time in the sea. Great surf lessons on Porthmeor. Loads of great restaurants on the doorstep … our favourites of the week Arbor (birthday treat), Blas (best burgers ever) and Onzo (great pizza and pasta). Even with some wild weather we had an amazing holiday. Thank you.

Our week at 15 Seaview Terrace has been super. With a group of 11 aged from 2 years to 70+, spanning 3 generations, the property offers plenty of space to enjoy each other's company or to find a little peace and quiet to do your own thing. The bedroom at the front with it's super views across St Ives is an ideal haven for Grandma and Grandad for a few minutes respite from the younger family members. In the garden the slide and hot tub proved very popular with all family members. All the beaches and the town are within easy walking distance and the walk back up the hill becomes easier the more you do it!

This is a lovely house with stunning views over St Ives Harbour from the dining room, master bedroom & one other bedroom. The 2 living rooms and 5 bedrooms are spacious and very comfortable with lovely decor. The garden was a big bonus - private, with a mix of sun & shade at all times of the daytime. Ideal for a large family or a group of friends (sleeps 10). The kitchen was great - well equipped and contained everything we needed. The only reservation is that being located on a hill and across 3 floors there are lots of steps, so this is not ideal for anyone with mobility issues. Otherwise, I would not hesitate to recommend this house as a great base for a perfect holiday in Cornwall.

Aspects are a professional company with excellent customer service which helped make our holiday a memorable one. Their service was second to none and helped us find a great property at short notice.
The house was spacious, comfortable and well equipped. The views were amazing and overlooked the harbour and beyond. The location is great - just a short walk into the town down centre. A great place to stay.
