Mermaids Cove Reviews

Anne

We loved our stay at Mermaids Cove, very quirky and interesting with one of the best views in St Ives - wonderful to wake up to. Very comfortable, cosy and well stocked with quality items. Stairs were a bit of a challenge but handrails were more than adequate.

David

This was our second time staying in Mermaids Cove, the cottage is ideally situated for a relaxing beach break. Already considering next year's booking once we have our leave dates from work confirmed.

Izobelle

Absolutely loved our stay not often you have the beach as your back garden

Cheralyn

Possibly the best guest location in St Ives but would benefit from replacing some equipment and soft furnishings.

Louise

What a fantastic little cottage . The best location with the best views. Yes it is very old with creaky floorboards and low ceilings ,but this is the quirky charm we loved about it. The cottage has been modernised without taking away its charm. The kitchen is extremely well equipped and we loved the big smegg fridge with icebox. We will definitely be returning.

Sharon

This cottage is absolutely stunning, and equipped to a very high standard. Yes, the beams are low, the floors are wonky, the stairs are steep, but this all adds to it's charm. It is a perfect mix of original with modern facilities, and the location is to die for - the best in St Ives. We had the most wonderful week in Mermaid Cove.

Eric

The cottage is old and quirky with creaky floors and staircases but this only adds to its charm. The property has everything from fully equipped kitchen to relaxing lounge and comfortable bed .We had an amazing time and experience in this accommodation and would highly recommend a visit. The views from every window is stunning and picturesque.. we will definitely be returning in the future .

Kate

Romantic, convenient and picturesque. Everything my partner and I wanted for a week away in Cornwall.

Hayley

My husband and I loved this beautiful cottage. It was just perfect for us, well equipped, incredibly comfortable, great location right on the beach. We will definitely return. Thank you

Joy

Fantastic location with wonderful views over the beach. Close to everything and yet quiet. Comfortably furnished, if maybe a little cluttered. The kitchen is well equipped, but the lack of a proper table and chairs (a collapsible table is provided) means that it isnâ??t ideal for eating in. Breakfast on the terrace is, however, a real treat.

Russell

Probably the best cottage location in st ives

Sean

Amazing location and cottage was gorgeous with amazing access to beach, only hesitation to book again was impracticle and loud metal bed that made it hard to get a good night's sleep

Rebecca

A little bit of paradise. We had a wonderful week and will definitely be coming again. Well equipped kitchen, comfy bed. Some may prefer a stand alone shower but the bath is lovely. Having the beach on your door step is a treat. Feel very lucky to have found this.

Dane

Very well equipped charming cottage .All mod cons set in an ancient cottage in the most iconic position in St Ives .Will be back .

Jenny

Wonderful cottage, wonderful position on the beach and we would love to return but will not do so before a safety handrail has been added to the very steep difficult stairs.

Elaine

The cottage is in prime location with spectacular views. The house is well equipped with everything you need for your stay. Only downside is the height of the roofs/beams. The stairs are quite interesting to get up/down because of thisâ?¦.so just be aware if youâ??re tall (Iâ??m 5.8 and had issues)

Claire

Lovely cosy quirky cottage, great location, nice welcome box. Very clean. Nice toiletries. Just sort out creaky bed and it would be perfect...

Emma

Absolutely amazing quirky cottage ..cannot fault for location ..bear in mind the stairs could do with some sort of hand rail xx loved every second x

Lorraine

Great location, well equipped kitchen but a bit tricky if you are over 5ft 11in tall! Really comfortable and cosy. Highly recommended
