We were very impressed by the Count House. It was so very well run and the owners could not have done more to make their guests feel comfortable. The rooms were very good and spotless and the breakfast offered an excellent choice. We would go there again - it was very good value. more

The location, overlooking St Ives harbour, is stunning (I use the view as my computer screen-saver!) and there's no problem arriving by car as you are directed away from the congestion in town and there's a 'Park and Ride' nearby. The bedrooms are spotless, with all the amenities you would expect and Cheryl's cooking is to die for! The décor... more

We stayed with Cheryl and Ken as part of a group of artists in St Ives for a week of painting and visiting galleries. Our visit was made truly memorable by the welcome and attention received from our hosts. We were looked after in a very friendly, but not intrusive, way. The Old Count House has a lot of old... more

We stayed at The Old Count House over the bank holiday weekend and Cheryl & Ken were simply brilliant! The House itself is full of character and the room that we stayed in had a 4 poster bed and jacuzzi bath! which was great fun! I will definately return to the The Old Count House! more

We didn’t Tripadvisor before we went, we went on gut instinct. How right we were. Cheryl and Ken are very friendly (but not intrusive) and run a beautiful B&B. On the Friday we arrived Steve happened to mention that it was my birthday the following day. When we got back from our explorations and before going out to dinner, we... more

My mother and I stayed at the Old Count House for 6 nights following a family bereavement. We had explained the purpose of our visit prior to our arrival. Mr. and Mrs Canning were the perfect hosts caring for our needs and allowing us the privacy we needed during our stay. We had booked a twin room over the 'phone... more

We have just returned from a most enjoyable stay at The Old Count House, St. Ives. The view of the bay from our cosy and comfortable room was wonderful. A substantial and enjoyable breakfast in the dining room started each day right. The owners, Ken and Cheryl, give a warm and friendly welcome and we will definitely visit again. more

We have stayed at The beautiful Old Count House from the very first season that Cheryl and Ken took it over. The views are terrific and it is ideally situated above the town so is very peaceful. Having mentioned the views, the lovely house etc, it is actually Cheryl and Ken who are the main assets, always ready with a... more

We returned for the eighth time, to the usual friendly welcome - home from home. The rooms are fresh and clean, the breakfast sets you up for the day and the views are terrific. The facilities are provided without losing the wonderful character of the old building. A pleasant change from the sterile soulless conformity of so many hotels. more
