Lovely family holiday

Rockfish was perfect for a family holiday of 6 adults, 1 child & 1 baby. There was plenty of space & we loved that the property was so close to the beach which meant if we forgot something it was not far to go back. We also liked that the house was away from main part of St Ives but still within walking distance to all the shops, restaurants & bars. Jo was a great host & was helpful with suggestions of where to eat & book before our holiday.

A perfect winter vacation

We loved our stay in St. Ives at Rockfish. The town is charming and the house had everything that our three adult couples needed. We enjoyed daily walks along the coast and through the town. Thanks for a wonderful trip.

Perfect house for our New Year visit.

We loved it! We spent a week over new year with the family and the house was perfect. I’ve visited St Ives many times at New Year and it is a great place to enjoy the celebrations, which is why Rockfish is perfect. There are bigger houses with spectacular panoramas but very few that can boast a better location in town. We walked along the coastal path most days which is stunning. However, when we wanted to venture out for food and drink everything is on your doorstep. The Porthmeor Cafe is less than 100 yards away (which incidentally is amazing) but the centre of town is less than 100 yards in the other direction. The house itself worked really well for the 5 of us. I think for a group of up to 6 it’s perfect. High end TV’s, Sonos, well equipped kitchen and very clever decking in the back garden for a summer cocktail (I’d imagine as we weren’t brave enough to sit out in December). Apologies to anyone who wants to book if for New Year 2020 as I’ve already reserved it :)

Excellent holiday

We stayed here for our 2018 holiday....What a beautifully stunning place to stay. We had a holiday with my mother in law, 3 teenagers and a 6 year old. This property worked well for everybody, had space for everybody and the SMART TV's came in very handy for music/films/TV. It is beautifully decorated with a high end finish. I couldn't have asked for a better place to stay! The view was amazing from the living room, 3 of the bedrooms and the terrace. The position in St Ives was amazing aswell, it gave us incredible flexibility with our families activities. The Kitchen was well appointed and we loved the coffee machine. You also have many sitting areas outside to the front and the back! Our 6 year old named the back terraces 'The Castle'. there is a heater outside aswell for those cooler nights. Communication with the owners has been excellent. It was the BEST holiday we have had so far! Thank you,
