This bijou, cosy apartment is beautifully and thoughtfully furnished and is a real love nest for couples of all ages wanting a great night's sleep, a cosy sofa to snuggle up on, a cute outside area for al fresco dining and an easy flat walk into town. Dove's Nest is a five minute stroll from the train station or a five minute walk to the nearest long stay car park. Simply a great choice for couples wishing for a central location with the extra touches of comfort.
one step up into the courtyard, then one further step through the front door leading to:

Many of our larger town houses are situated just a couple of minutes’ walk from the centre and these offer ideal family accommodation, many with gardens, something of a rarity in St Ives. If all that shopping and socialising gets too much, you can always get away from it all and relax in the tranquil setting of Trewyn Gardens, a real little haven, tucked away in the heart of the town.
So, for self catering holidays in St Ives with everything on your doorstep, the town is the place to be.

Despite the difficulty we experienced entering and exiting the cottage each day we still enjoyed our stay and will use Aspects again

We are sorry if there was any confusion over the accessibility of this property. We tag it as being accessible due to its suitability for those with limited mobility, having just a couple of steps up to the property, and being level inside; as opposed to it being wheelchair friendly. I can see that a previous guest review had stated that they were in a wheelchair and found it suitable, so we can see how this could have given you that impression. We are sorry if this caused any issue for you during your stay here, and are glad that you still enjoyed it despite the difficulty that you had. Please do get in contact with us if you are ever looking to return, so that we can help you in finding somewhere that will meet all of your requirements. Tanya, Customer Services

Nicely decorated but be aware it's compact with open kitchen area and lounge/dining area, one small bedroom and small bathroom. Although light inside it does not have a sunny aspect. Very convenient position in town.
