Honeysuckle cottage is clean, modern and comfortable. The space inside the property has been optimised to provide all of the facilities that you need to make this a great base for a visit to the area. Probably not ideal if you have a couple of kids as the living space is small - although in the summer you'll be able to use the small enclosed garden.Ian the host is really friendly and the communication before and during our stay was ideal.We'd happily go back!

Great place to stay, having an en suite for both bedrooms was fantastic. Such a beautiful quiet location and only a 10 minute drive to St Ives. Ian and Sue were very welcoming and made sure we had all we needed. Would stay again.

Quiet location with wonderful views when on the property grounds. The cottage was a perfect size for 4 people. Walkers have a 35 min walk to st ives. The drive there can be difficult as its single lane country roads but we had no issues. Beaches with 15 mins but parking is a bit troublesome in the summer. The hosts were always available for help. Would visit again.

My family and I had a fantastic holiday at Honeysuckle Cottage. The location is perfect - a peaceful countryside haven after the excitement and bustle of St Ives harbour. Being a rural setting it is beautifully quiet and great for sleeping. The cottage itself was spotlessly clean and had everything you could need for a holiday in this stunning part of Cornwall. The walk into St Ives was one of the most enjoyable parts of our stay, with spectacular views over Carbis bay and the harbour as you approach St Ives (around 35- 40 mins on foot). You can also take the train from Carbis bay for one of the most stunning coastal train rides in Britain (less than a couple of pounds for a return ticket). Ian and Sue are lovely hosts - attentive and kind without ever being intrusive. They are always on hand and are very helpful. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Honeysuckle Cottage as a wonderful place to stay and to explore St Ives, Carbis Bay and the whole south west of Cornwall.

Good value for money

Nice cottage but you need to take into account there are no views out of the property - only the view out of the back door (when open) onto the small enclosed garden. The cleanliness of the property is OK but lacked attention to detail. There was some food which had been left in the fridge by previous guests which was was causing the fridge to smell and unfortunately the temperature of the fridge was too low (with no way to alter it) causing food to almost freeze. The property did small quite musty/damp for the first couple of days. Unfortunately there was no welcome pack, not even a pint of milk in the fridge which was disappointing. Despite all the negatives, it is very reasonably priced place to stay with two double bedrooms, each with ensuite and it is ideally located for visiting the St.Ives area.

An comfortable cottage in an ideal location for a short stay in West Cornwall

Honeysuckle Cottage is a small but very comfortable cottage just a few miles from St Ives, in a small farm courtyard on a quiet country lane. It was very easy to find, and parking was easy also, right next to the property. The kitchen and living area was small but had everything we needed for the two of us to cook for ourselves and relax in the evenings. The two en suite double bedrooms were comfortable and spacious and, although we had a couple of nights of strong winds and heavy rain, we stayed snug. The house was warm and clean and the area quiet and dark, which was all we needed. Thanks to Ian and Sue for the warm welcome.

Beautiful cottage

The cottage was in a lovely area but a bit out of the way,which didn't bother us. The bed in the main bedroom was a bit hard ,needs a topper. It also needs mirrors on the wall in the bedroom as it was hard to blow dry your hair. Ian was very helpful when we arrived we enjoyed our holiday there very much. Thanks.
