Great stay in St Ives

We appreciated this comfortable holiday home close to the centre of St Ives but just far enough to be away from the crowds. Great location, house was exactly as pictured. Easy check in and good communication with the owners. Thanks for a great stay.

Perfect home base in St. Ives

We enjoyed our week in St. Ives and this rental made it easy. It is conveniently located within a short walk to the bus, grocery store, harbour and beaches. The space is beautifully decorated with all of the modern conveniences we needed over the course of the week. We would recommend this rental without hesitation and would love to return.

Family holiday

We had a weeks’ holiday in the Cornish Pearl with our 2 daughters and dog. The house had everything we needed for a relaxing stay in St Ives & was in a great location, just near enough to the town and the beaches but far enough away to escape and have some peace and quiet. The hosts were very helpful and answered any queries we had promptly. We would definitely go to St Ives and stay at the Cornish Pearl again.

Highly recommend the Cornish Pearl

Loved this house - so comfortable with everything you need for a great holiday next to the sea! The hosts are very friendly, responsive and helpful. Convenient lock box for key made for easy check-in. The house has been used by the host family for their holidays which gives it a wonderful personal touch - great games, books, very functional kitchen with everything you need to cook a great meal. Really felt at home here - the decor is beautiful. The location is great - short walk to the centre of St Ives and the beaches. Would highly recommend - wished we had the time to stay longer!!
