"We loved the apartment (Genoa), the views were great and it was a very convenient place for us, in fact we didn't use the car once during the week we were there. If we wanted to go to St Ives we walked along the coastal path. We also walked along the path in the opposite direction to Porth Kidney Beach and Tesco of course was less than a 5 minute walk away."

K. Cuerden, Huddersfield"Genoa is a fantastic, super cool, well equipped, luxury apartment and proved even better than the web-site suggested it might be. We loved the views, the comfort and the quality of the fit-out. The kids loved the Nintendo Wii and finally found a computer game that they could play together. The apartment is ultra stylish and was an absolute joy to come back to every day. Every detail had been thoughtfully considered, and every appliance was of the highest quality and in immaculate condition."
