The Old Bookshop - cheerful house located in St Ives centre

We had a couple minor problems that were resolved quickly and efficiently by our hosts

We stayed for two weeks at the old bookshop, it was a great base for us. Super close to the town and harbour, a couple minutes from the Barbara Hepworth museum and three convenience stores in walking distance. So many amazing restaurants nearby. Hosts were super communicative and made sure we had everything we needed. Would definitely stay again.

We had a wonderful stay here for a long weekend. Great location, quiet and cosy! We will certainly stay again longer next time. Great host! Thank you

Everything about The Old Bookshop was wonderful. The location was close to everything. It was clean and comfortable. Some provisions were provided. The gulls were welcoming. One even tapped on the window to wake me up two mornings.

Very cute place, superb location close to all amenities and very clean, everything thought through thoroghly with great attention to detail, loved it and would definitely return!

Everything about The Old Bookshop was perfect. The location was convenient to everything we needed and everywhere we wanted to visit. The cottage was cozy and well appointed, with two extremely comfortable arm chairs to welcome us at the end of a long day. The bed was very comfortable. The bathroom, though small, had a good strong shower. We couldn't have asked for more, and we were very sorry to leave. Thank you, Jemma, for a wonderful stay in St. Ives.

We booked a 3 week stay at The Old Bookshop from 1st to 22nd May 24 and found everything from the location, welcome pack, facilities to be excellent. We only have a few suggestions for improvement. 1. The shower and cubicle is in need of updating as very old fashioned in comparison to rest of bathroom. 2. As there is no dryer a clothes dryer would be useful. I don’t normally do washing on holiday but as we were away for a month in total I needed somewhere to hang washing that wasn’t quite dry. Apart from the above we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend to anyone.

Loved our stay! Conveniently located, quiet at night! We had problem with shower head and fixed within an hour! Lovely greeting with wine and scones! Top notch all around! Loved all the books too. Only wish: a top sheet and some blankets. Would highly recommend this rental

I loved the bookshop! It is such a warm, homey place filled with books. The location is amazing, right in the middle of town. I could not have loved it more. Jemma was an amazing host. She answered all my questions promptly. Such a wonderful stay!

Everything was very satisfying it felt like at home away from home.

Very relaxing and chilled with every possible piece of kitchen equipment at hand. Comfy bed with lovely soft towels. What a welcome pack, we didn’t need to stock up on anything, all the essentials provided. Very thoughtful of the host.
