“We had a wonderful stay in a beautiful house with amazing sea views. Enjoyed lunch on the terrace in surprisingly sunny and warm September weather. Long walks on SW coast path and meals out in Carbis Bay and St Ives. Our pool and snooker playing has much improved! Thank you for a lovely holiday.”
“Great family week in a beautiful house with unforgettable views. The terrace is a perfect place to start the day with a brew! La Casita restaurant well worth visiting or order a takeaway – great tasting food.”
“Thank you, Melanie, for allowing us to take this short break at Birdsong. The kids loved watching the train when we walked down to Carbis Beach – making dams by the “river”. Interacting with other children! The parents loved the views, fish n chips in St Ives at the Harbour Restaurant. We weren’t impressed with the thieving seagulls though. Tesco’s very handy. Love Carbis Beach. 🩶🩶. Today on our last full day we walked around and to Trencom Hill (NT) 9 mins drive away. We then drove to St Erth and walked from the church along the river Hayle and back. Both only 30 mins but very different scenery.”
‘What an amazing house! It suited our needs perfectly and we’ve had a fantastic week away, thank you! We had lots of ice cream on the beach.”
“We had great fun and went swimming almost every day! We especially loved paddle boarding and the Eden project. It was only a short walk down to St Ives with beautiful scenery and glorious weather! We hope to come again soon.”
“We have had a fabulous family holiday. Great opportunity for 3 generations to relax and play. Love, love, love the views and the location is perfect. Highlights were paddle boarding at Carbis Bay Beach and taking a stroll down the SW Coast Path from the bottom of the garden!”
“Lovely stay, views are incredible and house is great, loved the pool / table tennis. Recommend Talay Thai Tapas, Rajpoot, Yallah café in town- great breakfast and coffee is amazing. Game selection and book selection is great too. Thank You!!”
Thank you, Melanie, for sharing your beautiful home with us for our first family holiday! We have loved every minute and been in want for nothing. The girls adore the house and loved the beautiful path down to the beach each day (even embracing a swim in March waters)! Hours of fun was had, and we have made memories we will treasure for a lifetime! We are very grateful.
A lovely week in a fantastic house – we enjoyed the walks, the fish and the beauty of St Ives, many thanks.
Had a fantastic time! A lovely house with a lovely beach! The maga SUP was our highlight of the holiday.
Thanks for an amazing holiday in Admiral Cottage! Lovely view and an amazing location will return thanks.
Fabulous stay - the 4 of us LOVED the views and glorious St Ives! We could have been anywhere tropical with the beautiful colour s of the white sandy beaches and clear turquoise seas!
Lovely stay in the quaint Admiral Cottage, everything we needed to enjoy a great week in St Ives and the bonus of a beautiful view.
Bellissimo soggiorno in un incantevole, splendido cottage tra Cielo e mane Grazie per l’ospitalita
Beautiful stay in a charming splendid cottage between sky and sea. Thank you for your hospitality.
Thank you for letting us this beautiful property! Perfect for our dogs, kids and the location is amazing!
Four of us stayed in Birdsong, this huge comfortable house and had a lovely week. Well situated for St Ives which is a pleasant 15-20 min walk to the harbour.
The views from the house are splendid and the gardens, games (pool/table football/pingpong), washing/drying facilities were all well appreciated.
I suppose the ultimate question is would we stay again. The answer is YES!
“Tucked away”
If I was a writer I would move into Admiral Cottage and take inspiration from the view.
I only stayed for a few days but it was a real tonic. The cottage has all you need and expect, loved the bathroom with its high ceiling and the little garden. Admiral is tucked away yet seconds from the main street, so if you need to buy anything it only takes minutes as the Deli is very close. I took some good photos as the sun came out, which made me happy!
Can't wait to come back to Cornwall.
