St Ives Gazelle Cottage 2 Bedrooms

Just the location of the property was nice and close to the beach and town. The check-in process was easy, and the area itself has a lot of potential if the property were properly maintained and cleaned.

The property was in very poor condition and not suitable for a family stay. There was mold on the curtains and window, a broken bed with a broken leg, cracked furniture, and unsafe electrical fittings with exposed wiring. The washing machine was dirty and full of debris, and parts of the property were damaged or neglected (like the fireplace and mirror). We were shocked by how unsafe and unclean it was, especially with children. We only stayed one night and had to leave early.

Die Lage hat uns gefallen, obwohl man keinen Blick aufs Meer hat.

Wir konnten die ganze Woche nicht duschen. Das Wasser in der rostfleckigen und alten Badewanne war nur kalt, denn der Duschregler war defekt. Wir haben uns beim Vermieter gemeldet und die Sachlage erklärt. Nachträglich wurde uns aber geschrieben, dass alles in Ordnung wäre. Danach wurden wir ignoriert. Auch ist die Duschwanne unter der Treppe vom ersten in den zweiten Stock, was das stehen in der Wanne verunmöglicht. Die Fenster waren im ganzen Cottage nicht zu öffnen, weil von der Wandfarbe verklebt. Die Küche war unappetitlich und lud nicht zum Kochen ein.

Location was great, shame about the overall property. We decided to not stay here after checking in

Unclean, sticky table, broken ladder on bunk bed, ridiculous steps to get to kitchen and bathroom, I'm 5.4" and had to sit on the steps to get down the stairs. I didnt feel safe or private, the door latch was malfunctioning. Tried to contact the property manager and still haven't had a response 4 days later. Wish I could add more photos

all about the fantastic location bedrooms were good size and comfortable

bathroom facilities were simply poor. no shower or room to stand in a bath under the stairs. was very awkward and uncomfortable experience. shower head itself had weak water pressure and not very hot. there is evidence of mould in the net curtains in lounge area. looks like a cover up paint job in certain areas where evidence of damp and paint flaking away in the same area. basement back door lock was not secure despite the slide locks helping. needs looking at to avoid any risk of forced entry.

The location is perfect

Very old and unkept. You state it in keeping with Cornish living, however stained bath that is inaccessible, IKEA furniture, taps in main bedroom that don’t work and rugs in living room that are filthy when you lift them are not what I would class as Cornish living. We come to st Ives 5/6 times a year and this is the worse property we have stayed in. You need to update your details to be realistic about the cottage.
