Mariners Cottage:

Thoroughly enjoyed our half term week in St Ives. The Quirky Cottage is in an amazing location and offers lots of character, its just a short walk to the harbour and beach, perfectly positioned for our family including our two dogs. Inside we found it very well equipped which allowed us to have nights in as well as enjoying the numerous places to eat in St Ives. I would highly recommend.

A cosy cottage in an excellent location

Lovely little cottage right near the beach, less than an a minute walk to the harbour beach. The house is really comfortable and freshly decorated. It has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Kitchen is well stocked with everything you need, which in some houses isn’t always the case. The phone signal and WiFi isn’t great so it’s a nice opportunity to reduce the phone and tablet usage for the stay.

Expectations exceedef

The cottage was perfectly clean and warm. All appliances worked, beds comfy and great night sleeps had by all. Lounge was perfect place to relax and unwind. One of the best self-catering cottages we’ve stayed in and certainly one of our best holidays for a long time. A big thank you to the owners and staff.

Spectacular St. Ives

We 4 adults spent 6 nights and found the apartment delightful for our needs. The third floor bedrooms with many steps could be daunting. The ground floor has a cozy sitting room and kitchen area, however the closest loo is on the first floor. The showers were particularly nice with plenty of warm water. The area is quiet and proximity of restaurants is close. There are many walking trails with spectacular vistas.

Stunning

Such a beautiful, comfortable cottage, they really have thought of everything thing here. Beautifully decorated with the perfect blend of comfort and style and the kitchen is fully equipped with everything you could possibly need. Perfect location for peace and quiet but 2 minutes into the main town. The gate at the front was an added bonus for us with dogs because we could have the doors open without the worry of them running out .I absolutely cannot find anything to fault about this property or it’s location and will definitely be booking again for next year . I have to say that the photos on the advert really do not do this gorgeous cottage the justice it deserves

The property does not have three usable bathrooms

This property is quite shabby in places and could do with a proper clean. The bathroom in the top floor bathroom (the one with the bath) is not fit for use. The shower only has cold water coming out of it, despite a plumber attending during our stay and attempting to fix the problem. There is peeling plaster on the upper floor walls and the property is overdue a renovation.
Response from VrboOwner on 23 Sept 2023
Hi Joe, Thank you for leaving a review on your recent stay. We are sorry to hear of these issues, I can confirm the bathroom has now been fixed and we were not aware of the bathroom issues before your stay. I have passed on your comments about the cleanliness and peeling plaster and this will be rectified for future guests. We do hope to welcome you to stay with Luxury Coastal again in the future.

Cleanliness

We were very much looking forward to our break in St Ives, and we did have a great time but…… The overall cleanliness and a few maintenance issues within the cottage, I will list so they can be addressed before the summer season. 1 - White paint flaking off all walls. 2 - The fridge kept falling out of the integrated cupboard when opening the door. 3 - The small outside area hadn’t been cleaned ever! 4 - When we hoovered the hoover stank, the filter hasn’t been changed. 5 - On arrival there was either coffee or team stains on the floor, this shows it hadn’t even been mopped. 6 - First floor bed only had one sheet with no mattress protector on a very soiled mattress. 7 - All showers were dirty and stank of sewage. 8 - thick dust and hair on all skirting boards. Whilst in an amazing location and well equipped this certainly isn’t a luxury cottage!!
