St Ives is perfect
Some remedial work needed on door to balcony. A new key safe would make things easier.

Very nice location and parking is easy to access. Be very specific on guest number and be sure to order towels and linens as they are not available unless arrangements made. Is on the second floor so expect some steps for luggage. Basic appliances and kitchen supplies. Rooms are small but adequate. Shower/ tub is on a raised platform. Bring basics like toilet tissue and dishwasher detergent. Beautiful views from bedroom.

Great location 5 minutes walk to Porthmeor Beach. Property maintained in immaculate order with everything we could wish for to ensure our stay was a true home from home experience. Justine was helpful from the moment of booking to help and answer any questions. We will definitely be using Driftwood again for our stays in St Ives.

A sweet and simple condo - basic comfy, nothing fancy. In a good location above the town center and with its own designated parking spot, but there are a LOT of steps to get to the unit and it’s on two floors. I would stay again, but it might not be the best choice for everyone.

Wonderful Christmas/New Year getaway.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay from Boxing Day until 2nd Jan. The maisonette is super clean and well equipped, the kitchen has everything you need to cook a meal including plenty of utensils, weighing scales and pans. The kids loved the added toys and games and if guests have younger children it’s lovely to see high chairs, a stair gate and plastic bowls and plates are all available. The maisonette is in an ideal location with the town and beaches within walking distance. Having a parking space that close to town is a big added bonus too. Justine is very proactive and helpful which is really appreciated. I would book this property with confidence again. Many thanks.
