Customer reviews

Good or bad, we publish all the reviews left by the guests who have stayed at this property.

Mrs Adams

Beautiful bungalow with stunning views. Really well equipped and extremely comfortable. Was great to have parking on the doorstep, not that we used the car much. There is a steep hill to climb up and down but the views are so worth it.

Mrs Hillier

Such a wonderful place with an amazing view of Porthmeor and out to sea. Can't beat it. The home is welcoming and comfortable and well equipped. It was our second visit and we will come again for sure. Thank you !

Mrs Warr

We enjoyed another wonderful week at Parc a Carne with sunny weather and just one rainy day. The view from the property is absolutely breathtaking and with the attractive and generous sized patio there is nothing better than relaxing out there admiring the magnificent far reaching and panoramic view of the island the beach and the lighthouse. The bungalow is very well equipped with everything you need, it is our very favourite holiday location, this was our second visit and we have already booked for 2026.

It is situated in a very peaceful location and being elevated it does mean that there is a short but steep hill to climb but it only takes minutes to walk down to the beach and all the facilities there is to offer in St Ives. Very many thanks to the owners for sharing their beautiful property with us.

Rev Robey

Fabulous house, wonderful view, did not want to leave. Great quiet location but only around 15 minutes walk to the centre of St Ives. Car parking space was good and adequate. Everything was catered for, will be returning next year.

Mr Fichtner

This cottage offers a warm atmosphere, excellent sea views and a quiet location for someone who can walk down to the busy streets of St Ives. A place to relax for sure. Well equipped, with private parking in front of the cottage, which makes life easy at that place. A place to come back.

Mr Anson

This is a stunning property and we are already missing our holiday here. Would not hesitate to book again. It has everything!

Mrs Kitching

Parc a carne is the place of a dream holiday! The home is homely and modern and inspiring with beautiful artwork and out of this world views. Guaranteed joy!

Mrs Roberson

This is a very clean, comfortable bungalow with excellent views of the beach and St Ives. Such a bonus to have parking. Although, the hill is steep down to St Ives there is a footpath at the end of Beach Road which is less so. Food in St Ives is excellent, albeit expensive, providing you book. Overall an enjoyable holiday.

Mr McKee

The house is perfect, very clean and has the best view in St Ives. Having a parking space at your door is a real bonus.

Mr Clarke

The property is perfect for the location and views. Home from home. Very well furnished. We have already booked for next year so we are very happy with this holiday home.

Mrs French

We had a wonderful week at Parc a Carne. We loved sitting and looking out to sea from the main bedroom and from the lounge. The views of Porthmeor beach and its surfers were stunning. The bungalow was very homely with some lovely art. We enjoyed strolling round St Ives and used the car to explore the surrounding countryside and coast.

Mr Harris

We had a lovely out of season holiday in this well appointed bungalow. Comfortable and warm with everything we needed..
Wonderful views from sitting room and master bedroom towards Porthmeor beach and the town.

Miss Rowson

We arrived in the dark after a long drive I couldn’t wait to wake and see the view it was amazing from both the lounge and bedroom, it really did not disappoint.
Fantastic location easy walk to the beach with our dog every morning and afternoon, great for popping down into St Ives for a mooch about.
Very comfortable house lovely and warm, great size TV which you rarely get in a holiday let.
Situated so close to Carbis bay and the beautiful 3 mile beach in Hayle.
Would definitely return we had the best time!

Mrs Hillier

A wonderful, well equipped property with the most amazing views of our favourite beach, Porthmeor. Whilst the garden is not for guests to access, it was lovely to look onto it and see the beautiful range of plants and trees, even in November. The bungalow was very comfortable and homely with lovely artworks, many from the artist owner. The welcome goodies were much appreciated too. Thank you. We'll be back!

Mrs Warr

We had a lovely week at Parc a Carne despite the inclement weather. The property has the most amazing view, it is very well equipped and is very conveniently located to get down to the beach and everything that St Ives has to offer, although it should be noted that there is steep hill to climb up and down but it isn’t a very long one.

Mr Milburn

Parc an carne is perfect accomodation for anyone looking for good view in quieter location,ideal for artists.Everthing you might need is provided.

Mr Anson

We had a fantastic holiday here. What a stunning location and view.

Miss Marsden

This was our 3rd stay at Parc an Carne and we had another fantastic week away! A beautiful, well equipped house with everything you need for a relaxing & comfortable holiday.

We still cannot get over the view from the terrace over the gorgeous garden to Porthmeor beach and beyond. It is breathtaking!

If it is possible to be in love with a place then we definitely are with this wonderful property and will certainly be back again next year.

Mr Duckworth

Parc an Carne is one of the best properties we have stayed in. Location is fantastic and the parking is very good .I will book this one again.

Mrs McKie

A lovely house with wonderful views looking out at Porthmeor beach and St Nicholas Chapel. Very comfortable bed, again with amazing views. The kitchen is well equipped and we appreciated the gifts on arrival. Parking space is great.

Mr Bruton

Fantastic view, Warm homely feel. Just be prepared for the exercise walking back up the hill from town or the beach. Totally worth it for the panoramic view of St Ives. No pain no gain as they say!

Mrs Hall

Parc a Carne is truly a home from home with the added bonus of beautiful views.
Located in a fantastic part of St Ives with private parking a great bonus.
Peace & tranquility abounds although only a short walk from the galleries, restaurants & shops
or a refreshing cliff walk.

Mrs Hackett

A property with an incredible view which was captivating from the moment I walked through the front door. The terrace and garden (private) are beautiful and we’ve loved watching the tides and surfers on Porthmeor beach.

Property felt overdue some general TLC but overall is very well equipped and perfectly positioned to enjoy St Ives without being absolutely in the thick of the August crowds. Beware the hill!

Mr Burgoyne

Beautiful location, spotlessly clean, well equipped, spacious and relaxing. The description raised our expectations and it did not disappoint. Would stay there again if I am ever back in that part of Cornwall.

Miss Marsden

This was our second stay at Parc an Carne and we were still amazed by this property and all it has to offer!

A lovely, bright and well equipped kitchen. Really ample living/dining space with great views! Super comfortable master bedroom with ensuite and a second twin room & family bathroom - as there was just the 2 of us it was really nice for me & hubby to have our own bathroom and dressing room!

Really well equipped property with Lots of personal touches from the owner including the fantastic artwork everywhere.

Lovely well kept gardens front & rear with the terrace to the rear also providing the most stunning views over Porthmeor beach, St Ives and beyond! We spent so many hours there just soaking it all in.

We are definitely in love with this place and will most certainly be back next year. 100% recommend a stay here!

Also, fantastic service from Aspect Holidays as usual!

Miss King

Overall the property is comfortable and well equipped. The view is gorgeous and a lovely place to sit first thing in the morning.
After a week of walking up the hill felt revitalised ??.

Mrs Pickwell

A beautiful home with amazing views! A luxury to wake after a night in a really comfy bed and be able to look out to that view every morning! The four of us had a lovely week in the late Autumn sunshine. My mother-in law struggled to walk back up to the property from town, but it didn't bother the rest of us. It was well worth it for the view and gave us a chance to wear off the great meals out that we had. One of many places we have stayed at in St Ives over the years- certainly one of the best!

Mrs Hall

Parc an Carne is a delightful bungalow with fantastic views from both inside and the terrace.
Close proximity to enjoy everything St Ives offers but with the added feeling of peacefulness
& seclusion.
Private parking for one car is an added bonus.

Ms Ferne

Given my feedback I would prefer not to leave a less favourable review.

Mr Adams

Parc an Carne is a wonderful holiday home with spectacular views in a great location. I would love to return next year!

Mrs McKie

Parc an Carne is a lovey house with an amazing view, in a quiet location with a short walk to St.Ives, there is also car parking available. We will defiantly book this accommodation again.

Mrs Brown

Really enjoyed our recent stay, the views are very special. It’s great to have a parking space too. The walk up from St Ives is very steep but worth it for the views. Overall this was a well equipped home from home.

Ms Opik

My partner and I enjoyed a very relaxing stay in this comfortable, well equipped property. Both the bedroom and sitting room have a glorious view over Porthmeor Beach and The Island. We appreciated the private parking space.
It's a great location, just a short stroll down into St Ives and just as easy to set off for a walk along the stunning coast path. Though it's worth being aware that the wonderful views are thanks to the high vantage point above the town, so it's a proper walk up hill to get to the property.
I'd very happily stay here again.

Mr Leese

Great place, lovely sea view, fully equipped with everythink you may need, beds are very comfortable, Walking distance to town, although if your legs are weak its not the place for you as so many hills. Lovely coastal walks. 3 beaches all within walking distance. Nice harbour with the usual pastie shops, fish/ chip shop, bars, resturants booking advisable. Lovely place, you won't be disappointed.

Mrs Hardwick

Parc an carne is a fabulous property with amazing views from the large terrace area and also from both the lounge and master bedroom, it is very comfortable and spacious we definitely plan to return.

Mr Hope

Parc an carne was beautiful. Fantastic views allow you to sit and watch the surfers down below and feel at peace. Has everything you need for fantastic holiday. Just a short walk into the centre of St Ives we loved every second of our stay

Mrs Addison

We had a fantastic time in St Ives staying at Parc an Carne. The house is beautiful, the views breathtaking. We had no complaints. Beds were comfy. Everything was set up for when we arrived including a generous welcome pack. This wasn’t our first visit to St Ives but the best accommodation. We met the owners too (they have a studio at the front of the property), they were very welcoming and accommodating. All in all excellent. Looking to book again for next year.

Ms Russell

Fabulous property with fantastic views over Porthmeor Beach. Walking distance for all St Ives has to offer. Would definitely use Parc an carne again!
