The Garth - Perfect Cottages, Perfect Location

I booked all three cottages - Juliot, Iris, Wella - for my recent trip to St Ives, for myself and friends (7 of us in total). It was our first girls trip away together and we could not have asked for anything more perfect for our group. All three cottages are well looked after, spotlessly clean, tastefully decorated, and have great amenities. Every detail is well thought out. There is a plethora of information available within the cottages regarding its amenities, etc. The cottages are right in the centre of all the shops, bars, restaurants and beaches. However, because they are set back from the street slightly you feel as if you are in your own private bubble. I had read reviews regarding the carpark being a bit of a trek (about 25 minutes walk) and not ideal for some to walk due to the uphill location. Whilst we found that it was okay on the way from the carpark to the cottages, when we walked from the cottages back up to the carpark, we certainly found it a work out - and we’re used to walking miles. With luggage in tow, it was hard work. Therefore, on the day we left we decided that the drivers would walk up and get the cars from the carpark and the rest of the group walked to the St Ives Laundrette, which was about 10 minutes walk from the cottages. We were able to drive down to the laundrette, pick everyone up and turn the cars around easily. Something we will remember to do on our next visit! Myself and my group would definitely recommend staying here. Such a beautiful place and location.

Most Amazing property in a perfect location

We were so lucky to stay at the Garth this summer. Myself and my family were overwhelmed with how beautiful and well designed all 3 properties were. All details had been thought of and everything you needed was to hand. The interior design was exceptional and carefully thought through to make it an enjoyable stay. The courtyard was secure for our children. The owners were prompt to reply to any queries in the lead up to us going. The cleaners on the day of arrival were also friendly and helpful with nothing being too much trouble. We would absolutely recommend staying here, it’s a perfect property in the best location. Thank you!

Celebrations at The Garth

The Garth was our base for our group celebrating a special Birthday. All three cottages are stunning , spotlessly clean and right in the heart of St Ives. Iris, with the large dining table, was perfect for our group to get together at meal times, what a wonderful way to celebrate! We would definitely recommend all three cottages.

Accommodation for 10 with the wow factor

The Garth was the perfect accommodation for our group, the cottages were very clean and well equipped and each one is spacious, private and individual in style. The fixtures, fittings and furniture are well considered and well thought out and of a high quality. The weather was mixed during our stay but when the weather was good it was nice to get together in the gated communal courtyard. We found both Wella and Iris were big enough for us to get together in too. There was a young child on our trip and we had everything we needed with a travel cot and high chair etc. There were even some toys in the lounge areas which went down brilliantly! I love St Ives and when I come back I'll make sure it is in one of these wonderful cottages.
