“Just a few feedback points.”

For some reason all 3 tvs decided to switch themselves on at different times though the night, 12:03 am 2:06am and then 3:36 am. This disturbed all of us, also waking my 1year old daughter. We thought we had exclusive, reserved parking spaces, on Tuesday morning we got blocked in, i have taken photos to show this also showing reg numbers.

In my sons room, first one on the left as you enter, he had fungi, mushrooms growing from the base of the shower surround, not good, i again can show you, i took photos. The high chair was grubby, so we had to spend time cleaning that, not good. This is not a cheap place to rent, we shouldn't have had any of these issues. We would not come back. Your comments appreciated Regards Graham Wootton

“Amazing property and views.”

There is everything you need in the property and outside. We couldn't resist booking it again for later this year and next year while staying at the bungalow.

“Beautiful sea views and well appointed property.”

Few minutes easy walk to the beach, and you can hear the waves from the lovely terrace or from the amazing hot tub. Perfect location to walk into St Ives- 5mins level walk after short slope. Property had everything we needed, although we couldn't work out to use the dryer part of the washer-dryer. Everything was clean and bright. Instructions on how to reach property were spot on and glad I'd watched the video on how to drive in, but the hill is very steep to drive back up with a heavily loaded little car and this was stressful. We had a fabulous stay and are already missing the sea views!

- Vicki, June 2026
Debra May 2026

“WOW what a little gem - perfect location with beautiful views and what a sun trap from sunrise to early evening.”

The property had everything you needed to cook a full meal to plastic glasses for the hot tub! Don’t think I can stay anywhere else in St. Ives after being spoilt with this perfect property!

- Debra, May 2026
Shelley April 2026

“Great location, property was clean, but we did have an issue with Ants in the living room.”

Was a small up hill trek from the car park to the property, so had to have several trips to offload the car, there is a disability lift which would have been ideal, but was not working. Also an issue with the Ring type doorbell going off randomly. All points above didn’t really detract from this being a really nice property in a good location with spectacular views of St Ives.

- Shelley, April 2026

“Wow! Amazing accommodation.”

Highly recommend.

“This is our second time staying at Tresco and our stay was just as lovely as the last.”

We have never stayed anywhere else in St Ives with such beautiful views, a nice modern feel and in such a perfect location. The beach is literally on your doorstep and it is only a short walk into St Ives (with only a slight incline when coming back to the property). The property was clean and tidy when we arrived and has all the things you would need for cooking or cleaning during your stay. The hot tub was the perfect temperature when we arrived and got used lots during our stay. We had to contact the owner during our stay as there was an issue with the gate but this was resolved very quickly and the owner was very apologetic despite it only being a very minor issue. There isn’t one thing we could say negatively about the property and our experiences staying here. We won’t hesitate to book again in the future!

Perfect location with the most amazing view. Really well equipped and the parking a bonus too. We had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend

“What a week we had , everything about this place was perfect, we will definitely be returning.”

Missing that view already. Location was perfect . Thank you

Paul September 2025

“We have stayed in around 15 different properties across 3 different companies and by far this is the best one.”

Honestly a little too expensive but given location, facilities, view, hot tub this is why. It’s fully equipped with everything you could need and well layed out. The paved areas could do with a jet wash but in all honesty that’s the only slight criticism I could find for 2 weeks here! Booking does say you cannot use lift. Given this from where your car is parked it’s around a 40 second walk to the front door through 3 gates and is uphill so those less active may struggle. From main Road to drive to your parking it’s a very steep and narrow single track road and difficult to exit round a blind bend on a hill and as such you need to drive out quick when you “think” it’s clear. Loved the property and location and will definitely return !

“Where do I start.”

We first came to St Ives 13 years ago and left our hearts behind. We came across Tresco Bungalow two years ago and have stayed two years consecutively every August since for ten days. What doesn’t this beautiful haven have.Walking through the entrance gate your breath will be taken away. It is luxury at its finest with views you yearn to go back too. The sun rises literally out of the sea. If you are not a natural early riser I can promise the views of the sun rising out the ocean will have you up. Tresco is so well equipped with Bluetooth speakers inside and out. A wrap around garden and a hot tub with terrace with views of St Ives and the sea. Parking is brilliant. With the narrow roads in St Ives you can leave your car "at home" and with thoughtful ramp access to the house push prams and wheel chairs are so wonderfully thought of. The beds are like sleeping on a cloud ever so comfortable. The beach is literally ‘downstairs’ yards away. At night when the lights come on around you it is as if you are at the Amalfi coast and on a clear night what better than star gazing sitting in a hot tub. There is no shortage of space and a utility room room also. Nothing is too far. A train station a stone throw from the house. A lovely coastal walk into St Ives. Eateries and bars all walkable distance. We have made so many beautiful memories here and Tresco feels like home. We are back there in August again third year running and cannot wait. I just want to say thank you to Vince and his Sister for creating such a beautiful home to home. . Soo. . Thank you. Warm regards, The Kohli’s

- Jatin, August 2025

Wow! What an absolutely stunning review. We're genuinely touched by your words and so grateful that Tresco Bungalow has become such a special part of your St Ives story. Knowing that Tresco feels like a "home from home" and has helped create lasting memories for your family means the world to us. Thank you for your kind words about the accessibility, the amenities, and the atmosphere. We're thrilled that you'll be returning again next August, it's always a pleasure to welcome you back.

Tracey June 2025

“What an amazing place 5 stars all the way.”

The facilities in the property are so thought about there is everything you need and more we couldn’t have been happier comfort and luxury is second to none. Loved every minute.

Jennie June 2025

“We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Tresco.”

Beautiful bungalow and terrace, with an awesome view! Some lovely touches. Easy walking distance into town and the parking was brilliant. It’s a bit hairy pulling out onto the main road at the top of the hill when leaving, a mirror on the opposite side of the road would be helpful. The beds were the comfiest I’ve ever slept in, could you please tell me where the mattress in the room leading out to the terrace is from I forgot to look before we left?? The showers were fantastic too! Just a couple of things we would have liked. Coffee machine Plants on terrace We did find 2 broken wine glasses in the back of the cupboard and all the glasses were really dirty, guess this was just missed on the clean but nothing major, there were other wine glasses. We would definitely be back.

- Jennie, June 2025

Dear Jennie, Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful feedback – we're really glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Tresco Bungalow! It’s wonderful to know you loved the bungalow, terrace, and especially the view – and we're so pleased you found the beds comfortable and the showers to your liking. We have contacted you with further information into the mattress provided at the property. We understand your note regarding the visibility at the top of the hill, and the owners of Tresco Bungalow have reached out to Cornwall Council to see if there is the possibility of having a mirror installed. Thank you for flagging the issue with the glasses. We have raised this with the cleaning team so we can avoid this in the future. Thanks again for taking the time to share your experience, and we would be delighted to welcome you back in the future. Warm regards, The Team at Carbis Bay Holidays. Property Owner
Claire June 2025

“Myself , partner & little dog stayed at tresco bungalow in June.”

I can honestly say it’s one of the nicest , cleanest properties we’ve stayed in whilst visiting Cornwall. It had everything we needed & was so spacious. The bungalow was in a perfect location & right next to a train station to get around. The bungalow had amazing sea views . We enjoyed it so much & didn’t want to come home! 10/10

Andrew March 2025

“This property is just amazing , everything you could want all hi tech stuff in an amazing location.”

Could not get any better. The only thing to improve it would be a working lift to get your luggage from car to bungalow , but then you can’t literally have everything. Would 100% go again.

- Andrew, March 2025
Malcolm January 2025

“The bungalow was excellent.”

The system to get the EV charger working is convoluted and relies on your staff knowing what to do, which didn't initially happen with us, which was frustrating. The EV charger price is a little high for a 7kw charger at £0.60 per kwh.

- Malcolm, January 2025

Many thanks for taking the time to leave feedback after your recent stay. We are so glad to hear you had a great time and do hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the near future. We are sorry to hear you had difficulties accessing the charger on your arrival, as per the key collection email, we kindly ask that we are informed if you require the charger as so we can set this ready up for your arrival. We are pleased to see however that this was resolved within minutes of you contacting our team. Once again, thank you for leaving feedback and we hope to welcome you back in the near future for an even better stay. Best Wishes, The Team at Carbis Bay Holidays. Property Owner

“Absolutely amazing property.”

Everything we could ask for. Even in November it was lovely to sit out in the hot tub. Didn’t want to leave to be honest.

- Mark, November 2024

“We had a really lovely stay at Tresco bungalow.”

The property, views, location and facilities were excellent. It was very well equiped and had everthing we needed. The only issues we encountered were upon arrival at the Bungalow the description of how to access the property from the car park, (there was no mention of a car park) was not clear and as we arrived in the dark proved something of an issue, and no mention of any steps that you had to access from the car park. The emergency number was not helpful as you had to go through a number of options and then leave a message and someone would get back to you. Not helpful I feel if you need immediate assistance. We eventually found the main entrance which is located up some stairs on a public walkway uphill behind the Bungalow. The Bungalow does have a garden next to it which is gated which would eliminate the need to use the steps but apparently is no longer in use for guests, and I therefore feel is an issue if you have a lot of luggage or mobility issues. I did mention to Sykes that the description was not accurate, which they agreed and said they would update it. I unfortunately left an item behind which has now been returned safely but that proved a bit of nightmare as there was knowone you could speak to directly. All the numbers I tried only had options to book as a guest or rent for as an owner. You have to go through either of these options and you are then transferred, you cannot telephone customer services direct it is a digital service only. I telephoned many times to chase it up and spoke to at least 10 poeple on different occasions, having to wait at least 20 mins on each occasion having to repeat the same conversation, and then put on hold each time as they then had to contact the Carbis bay office before eventually it was sorted. It was so long winded. They stated the housekeeper had serviced the property the day we left and would have no reason to go back to the property until the next occupants left, so I had know way of knowing for over a week whether my property had been found by the housekeeper. I do feel having someone closer at hand to deal with immediate issues would be beneficial, and unfortunately would make me reluctant to book a property with Sykes again without this.

- Ion, September 2024

“Beautiful stay, everything you could hope for.”

The property was clean, lovely welcome pack, well positioned for St Ives, a really beautiful property. Loved how close to all the amenities it is and how private it is too. The only thing I can say to make it better would be the hot tub cleanliness. It had a fair bit of sand in it when we arrived and no one came to check the chlorine levels. I called and reported it but it remained the same. When we checked, there was no chlorine in after 4 days of use. It didn’t stop us from having an amazing stay, it really was fabulous and I’d recommend it to anyone.

- Elaine, August 2024

Thank you so much for taking the time to post such a lovely review. Just to reassure you regarding the cleanliness of the hot tub. On the day of arrival the hot tub was cleaned and refilled. Also, during your stay the maintenance guy visited the property twice to check the chemical levels and topped up when needed. He comes early in the morning and has an access code to the gate so not to bother guests. We will erect a sign at the property advising that the hot tub should not be used without first washing sandy feet, as it seems that sand has made its way into the jets. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay and we look forward to welcoming you back again. Property Owner
Casey July 2024

“We booked our stay at Tresco on the day of arrival due to a last minute cancellation of a different property.”

It is fair to say, we were not disappointed by this and couldn’t have been happier about our stay at Tresco. The property was cleaned and welcome package was ready for us when we arrived. We were impressed with how well the kitchen was stocked with utensils. The outdoor area was secure for the dog and had lovely views. We enjoyed using the hot tub and looking over the beach. The property looks over Porthminster beach which was a lovely close walk for the dog in the evenings. The property is also very short walk away from the harbour in St Ives and didn’t have too many steep hills. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again and highly recommend to friends.

Thank you for your feedback we are glad you enjoyed your stay. We look forward to welcoming you back again in the near future. Kind regards, Carbis Bay Holidays Team. Property Owner
Michael July 2024

“Beautiful bungalow & views!”

Couple mentions - there was a set of keys in front door when we arrived and property not alarmed (extra keys in key box too!). I would recommend some blinds to close at night in front windows/doors as it was uncomfortably hot upon waking due to beautiful sunshine we were lucky to have. Pool man did indeed come early - 7am - he did not ring bell so it was fortunate my dog was not out in the garden. I ‘splashed out’ on this expensive property for my wife’s 60th but our last afternoon (18/7) which we intended chilling peacefully in the hot tub was spoilt by mini diggers going up & down lane to rear of property with their very loud alarms going off which was indeed not pleasant to listen to.

- Michael, July 2024

Thank you for your feedback we glad you enjoyed the views! We will pass your considerations onto the owner, hope we have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future. Kind regards, the Carbis Bay Holiday team Property Owner

Mark June 2024

“Superb bungalow, lovely location and a unique outside area which is hard to find in St Ives.”

The hot tub is a great addition and the view when sat in it, is amazing. The bungalow has everything you could need, very clean, very good facilities. Parking was tricky as the spaces are not marked and the car park gets full, use of the lift would be great for loading and unloading but overall a great stay in a great place.

- Mark, June 2024

Thanks you for your feedback we are pleased that you had a great stay. We hope to see you again in the near future. Kind regards, Carbis Bay Holidays Team. Property Owner

Louise May 2024

“We sadly arrived to large dog turds up the steps, balls of black dog hair on the floor, sandy mats and dusty windows sills.”

This made the start of the stay not so good but the owner was quick to respond. Once this was cleaned up and the hot tub warmed up we relaxed into a lovely stay and really enjoyed the accommodation and setting. The location and facilities were fantastic. We were glad the canoes were not on top of our van or we may not have got under the bridge! The music from the hotel above did keep the kids awake at night so would bring ear plugs if we came again. A wonderful view to wake up to and super comfy beds.

- Louise, May 2024

Thank you for taking time to give us feedback after your stay. We shall look into the points you have raised and improve on them for the future as this is not up to our usual high cleaning standards. Kind regards, Carbis Bay Holidays. Property Owner
Liz May 2024

“We had a wonderful stay here and I couldn’t recommend it highly enough.”

The whole place is a “smart house” so there’s a pad under the TV to control everything from the radiators to the towel warmers. The kitchen is very well-stocked so you have all the cutlery, cutting knives, boards etc you would need. We enjoyed breakfast both outside on deck and inside at the small table overlooking the water beach. The beds were quite comfortable and decorated in a cool, modern style. The hot tub was a treat and we enjoyed it a few times during the stay despite it being a little chilly when we visited. It really is quite a luxurious place and you feel a little bit like royalty getting to stay so close to the water with a beautiful view. I would like to caution folks on getting to the bungalow. You have to maneuver down a very steep hill then around to a parking lot right in front of the bungalow. Our friend staying with us didn’t feel like her car would make it down the hill so we parked around the side at the train station parking. It’s around £10 a day and just a minute or two walk to the bungalow if you are unsure of navigating the steep hill. Other than this, if you really want a wonderful weekend away in a beautiful bungalow that’s close to shops and of course the beach, this place is for you!

- Liz, May 2024
Mark April 2024

“This is an excellent property in a fantastic location.”

It is very thoughtfully set out with so many extra facilities included as standard. Not a criticism but an observation, we were lucky enough to have a very sunny day so we used the sun loungers and it is a real sun trap, so maybe a sun umbrella for the guests staying in the summer months would be a great addition to what is a great property, real credit to the owners.

- Mark, April 2024

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such great feedback after your stay at Tresco Bungalow. We are so pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay and enjoyed the additional amenities the property had to offer. In regard to the umbrella, we have passed this onto the owner for their consideration and they thank you for your constructive comments. We do hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back to Tresco Bungalow in the near future. Kindest regards, The Team at Carbis Bay Holidays. Property Owner
Jack April 2024

“We had a very pleasant stay in St Ives.”

Tresco bungalow is furnished brilliantly, with very modern fittings and utilities that made our stay very comfortable and enjoyable. The location is perfect for short walks into town and directly to the beautiful beach below. We were very unfortunate with weather, so could only use the hot tub once, but it was set up nicely to be able to look out at the lovely view whilst relaxing. St Ives has some wonderful old architecture, beautiful walks in the town and challenging hills to explore, as well as some lovely pubs, an incredible old church and great restaurants. The Harbour Fish and Chips were some of the best fish and chips I’ve ever had! We took the train to Penzance as well, which was an experience, but the town isn’t any where near as lovely as St Ives, so we were glad to be staying there. Some things to note… getting to the property was a slight challenge, you need to be prepared to drive down an incredibly steep hill which looks like a footpath. Myself and my wife both decided sat nav must be wrong and diverted to a different route through town, which turned out to be a wrong move and got us a little lost down the tiny roads we shouldn’t have been on. When investigating the steep hill path by foot we realised this was in fact the way, and managed to get the car down the hill. It wasn’t a problem in the end, but some advanced warning that you’ll need a car that can handle the climb back up the hill too and some reasonably good driving skills to navigate this. Another thing of note and only minor grievance would be that the pool man came before 8am on the morning we were leaving, which we felt was a little intrusive as we had until 10am to leave. In the second bedroom, the two single beds pushed together could do with a mattress topper to make sure you can’t feel the divide. Otherwise the bungalow was excellent, well equipped, clean, modern and great location for the duration of our holiday.
