Guests are generally delighted with Tresco Bungalow, praising its fantastic location, modern amenities, and stunning views. The property offers a comfortable stay with a well-equipped kitchen and luxurious touches like a hot tub. While access can be challenging due to steep hills, the proximity to St. Ives and the beach is highly valued. Some minor cleanliness and maintenance issues were noted but did not detract significantly from the overall positive experience.
Most guests found the property clean and well-maintained, though there were isolated incidents of cleanliness issues such as dog hair and sand, which were promptly addressed by the owner. The hot tub cleanliness was mentioned as needing attention.
The location is highly praised for its proximity to the beach and St. Ives, with stunning views and easy access to local attractions. The steep access road was noted, but the overall sentiment about the location is overwhelmingly positive.
Guests report the beds as comfortable and the property as well-decorated with modern style. Some suggested improvements for bed configurations and the presence of noise from nearby activities, but overall, the comfort level is rated highly.
The property is well-equipped with modern facilities and a smart house system. The hot tub is a favourite feature, although there were comments about parking challenges and the need for better communication regarding the EV charger. Maintenance visits were noted as potentially intrusive.

Overlooking the beautiful soft sands of the Blue Flag designated Porthminster Beach, including its extensive amenities, with spectacular views across St Ives harbour, Tresco Bungalow is a delightful two-bedroom bungalow settled into the seaside town of St Ives, Cornwall.
In recent months the property has been completely refurbished and modernised to a very high specification.
With multiple close-by attractions, including for convenience being located only 200 yards from St Ives railway station, this property is ideal for two couples or families wishing to explore the coast of Cornwall from a picturesque bustling town steeped in local history.

The open plan kitchen, diner and lounge provides amazing views across Porthminster Beach and St Ives Harbour and incorporates an integrated Bluetooth wifi sound system. This spacious area allows guests to cook together, before enjoying a hearty meal at the dining table, afterwards settling into the stylish sitting area to embark on a movie marathon. When the evening draws in, head into one of the two well-newly furbished presented bedrooms, choosing between a super-king-size and king-size, (the latter is both zip/link and can be a twin on request) both bedrooms offer Smart TVs and sleek new modern en-suites facilities. Head outside when the sun is shining, rising or setting and make the most of the raised decking space, turning on the outside Bluetooth wifi sound speakers and relaxing to your favourite tunes, as you take an indulgent dip in the new hot tub, dine alfresco, and make the most of the lovely views over Porthminster Beach.

One of Cornwall's prettiest harbour towns, St Ives offers narrow streets, tight-packed cottages nestling around the quayside, the Tate Gallery and Barbara Hepworth museum, fabulous beaches, superb shops, a thriving community of artists, great pubs and restaurants and much more. With its semi Bohemian lifestyle and romantic air, it's easy to see why this is the county's premier holiday resort. The surrounding area has much for the visitor to see and do with abundant wildlife, fabulous coastal walks, top quality surfing and the Celtic mysteries of the Land's End Peninsula are all within easy reach. A superb destination!
