We were under impression this was a hotel, but in our opinion the nook is most definitely a B&B. Generally clean and friendly. The room was an ok size, but the bathroom was tiny, and the walls are very thin. I understand that bed firmness is a personal thing but, our bed was very very soft indeed. It's about a... More

We stayed here for 2 nights and had a lovely stay, the room was perfect, the breakfast was excellent and located just 10 minutes from St Ives town. Will stay here again More

Friendly hosts, clean rooms and a decent breakfast so why the 3 star review? My gripe is with the size of the room we were staying in. It was tiny! My wife and I had to cooperate to get the simplest tasks completed in the room. Due to the small size the room got very hot once a shower was... More

However when we arrived we found the room to be perfectly adequate. We were greeted warmly by Joan (who offered... More

Four friends traveling together chose the Nook as our St. Ives home away from home. It certainly was! The accommodations were excellent! Spotlessly clean rooms, new sheets and towels, very comfortable beds and very tastefully decorated rooms and common areas. Both the staff and the owners could not have been more welcoming to us! The morning breakfasts were delicious and... More

We stayed for a long weekend at the end of July for our 2nd year anniversary and we cannot wait to return! We had booked in to the Tregena Hotel for an evening on the Friday and were disappointed that there was no space on the Saturday or Sunday. As it turned out my wife and I were delighted that... More
