Overall a lovely pleasant stay at Hazelbury House, we stayed 4 nights for a long weekend. The location was spot on, you get a lovely sea view of Porthminster beach and St Ives town. Short walk (2mins) down to the beach and around 10/15 mins to harbour. The apartment is as described but i do think the images make it look slightly more modern than it is but it did the job for us. The property was clean and had fresh towels for us. We would definitely return to this property if we visited St Ives again.
Although stated on the property details the lack of parking and WIFI was the only negative.

What our guests say...

To help you choose the right property for you, we publish all reviews left by guests who have stayed here in the past, with the few exceptions stated in our Review Guidelines. Please bear in mind that some facilities referred to by past guests in reviews can be removed or changed at any time.
This property is a bit tired and could do with some attention esp in the bathroom and bedrooms. Don't go for the shower ! The views are fantastic to be fair, however not for the elderly as the climb up the hill from Pothminster Beach would be a challenge.

Amazing views and very close to Porthminster beach. Comfortable double bed and the dishwasher was very handy. Wifi would be a real benefit as only a very week signal which is frustrating. Little bit dated but an excellent base and we had a fab holiday.
Mrs Mckell Aug 2020
A beautiful apartment in a beautiful location.
Mrs Adamson Mar 2020
Lovely views from this apartment however photos aren't a true reflection and this apartment is looking tired and dated. Insufficient room for a dog crate if you're bringing a pet with you.

Thank you for your feedback, we are glad that you enjoyed those amazing views. We are sorry to hear that you feel the photos are not a true reflection of the property as we always try to be open and honest and want to accurately reflect properties within all photos and descriptions. We aim to offer a wide range of properties that we hope will meet the different budgets, differing requirements and individual tastes and whilst 2 Hazelbury is within one of the lowest price bands for a sea view property in St Ives, the owner always addresses any maintenance that arises and had updated a few areas a little while back. We have tried to show the type and style of decor provided here, as well as we possibly can, but your comments have been sent on to the property owners so that they can consider any suggestions for future improvements, so thank you for taking the time to let us know your thoughts and we hope to see you back here in St Ives soon. Tanya, Customer Services
Our 2019 holiday in St Ives was great despite the mixed weather. There were loads of things to do and see. We enjoyed the beautiful beaches, went on some challenging walks, saw seals and dolphins and ate some delicious food at the Porthminster Cafe.
Mrs Quinby Aug 2019
The location and view are just fantastic. We had a perfect holiday and would definitely stay here again.
Mr Kreeger Jul 2019
Excellent location with superb views over St Ives harbour. Just a few seconds to the coastal path towards Carbis Bay and a few minutes to the middle of St Ives. The only slight negative is the need to park either at the nearby train station, if space is available, or Trenwith Car park, which is a few minutes walk away.
Mr Adam Jul 2019
Pictures do not accurately represent the apartment. The apartment was disappointing and requires refurbishing and modernising.

Thank you for your comments. Since receiving your feedback, we have investigated this and contacted you, and are very sorry that it was not 100% for your arrival there. After our inspection, we listed all areas that needed addressing, and can confirm that the owner has attended to everything. With a further couple of visits since, we are happy that everything is now accuarately represented. Alot can happen in a short space of time in holiday let properties, in between our planned inspections, so thank you again for bringing this to our attention; so that we could investigate and ensure that everything was addressed.

Fantastic view, near the beach, but no parking spaces
Mr Storf Sep 2017
The view from this property is the wow factor
Mrs Hulstone Oct 2016
Views of the Bay & town to die for with excellent access to Porthminster Beach.
Remember to reverse down the road rather than go in forwards as turning is a challenge!
Certainly would stay there again.
