Had a lovely holiday at this hotel in St. Ives. St Ives lovely. Travelled solo felt safe. Trip to isles of scilly was well worth it although we did have wall to wall sunshine. Ferry takes 2.5 hours roughly each way but went very quickly dolphin watching. Take binoculars. Hotel is old and carpets dated/worn but everywhere I went and room was clean and comfortable. Staff friendly and very very hard working. Food good. Breakfast something for everyone and four choices each course evening meal. Overall had a lovely stay and would return. Coach driver Gary was excellent although journey was quite long but it was to Cornwall so quite a distance.

Lovely sea view from my hotel room Good service and food at the hotel. Disappointed to miss the Isles of Scilly because of the weather but enjoyed the substitute trip to the Eden Project. A helpful friendly driver (Phil). A long journey to Cornwall, especially with extra pick-ups and change of driver at service stations en route, but everything was taken care of so that I could relax and enjoy the holiday.
