  : Primrose House is situated near the beach and is a 5 minute walk from the centre of St Ives. The room was comfortable, clean and the morning breakfast sets you up for the day.. , Mihaka the host is very helpful and knows the local area. Even though he is originally from New Zealand. I stayed here for one night having not visited St Ives for over 10yrs and found it relaxing and a good location for walking into St Ives and leaving the car behind.

  : The location was so close to the train station. Breakfast was great.
  : We arrived about 8:30. We rang the bell and were told there was an envelope with the key in the basket on the porch. That was fine but when we asked if we could get help with bags, we were told no. Reception closed at 6. We are 2-70 year old women and it was very hard to drag our bags up 2 flights of stairs

  : Its was a nice place to stay. I stayed in the Pod (room 11 I think) at the back of the main house. It was a cute set up but if you have big bags or are a tall/wide person this is not the room for you as it was extremely snug but lovely. You have to climb up stairs to reach the bed so if you are tall or have mobility issues dont go for the Pod. Really near the beach. Not many food restaurants nearby except the beach food huts. Nice velux roof and side window covers to block the sunlight when sleeping. I liked that they left cookies in the reception. The guys covering reception on the 3 days I stayed were really nice and helpful. It was a really lovely place. It was clean and bed comfortable. I would recommend and stay here again. Oh and breakfast was amazing. I was not expecting such a lovely breakfast. Fresh croissants/pain au chocolat and juices available on top of a hot cooked breakfast. I had scrambled eggs with salmon and a really good hot choc.
  : Because I stayed in the pod, it is quite a narrow space so that limits the furniture. Sofa was very small, stiff, upright and not comfortable. Could have done with a foot stool/ cushion to improve this. Also the blanket was very scratchy and left loose fibres on everything. There was beer and some other drinks in the fridge but no information about prices in the room. No information on how to set up the tv for streaming and because it was fixed to the wall couldnt reach the hdmi ports easily to put smart sticks in so couldnt really watch anything decent when it was raining outdoors. These are minor things that can be changed so they wouldnt stop me staying here again.
