New Year stay
There was limited availability at the time of booking, but found this apartment which suited our needs. Good location only 10 minutes walk into town. There was a steep dissent to the walkway into town. Wouldn’t it suit people with walking disabilities?

Response from VrboOwner on 17 Jan, 2025
Thank you for sharing your experience Ian. Glad to hear your stay met your needs for the renowned St Ives New Years celebrations. Agreed, coastal towns like St Ives can present some steep descents in places. There is an alternative route from Ivars Place that follows the terrace road into the town which avoids the Primrose Valley lane you mention, this is also just ten minutes into the town.
All the best

Why they chose this property
Our family consists of three generations who have loved coming to St Ives from little children, to becoming grandparents. St Ives is such a special place to us and so many people who fall in love with its charming town, crystal clear waters, and pristine beaches. I personally get so excited when it’s someone’s first time visiting this place, knowing what St Ives has to offer.
