This property is perfect for a couple who want to be near everything St Ives has to offer.
Perfect location, very clean with everything you need to enjoy a stay in St Ives. We would definitely recommend this property and it would be the first place to book again for a visit. It has every amenity plus some very nice touches, thanks Jemma.

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.

What a great place to spend 3 nights in St Ives, literally 1 minute to the town centre and shops, bars, restaurants and takeaways.
Lovely welcome goodies of milk, bagels, butter, orange juice, biscuits and a bottle of Red Wine
Thank You 😊
Great enclosed small back yard which we managed to sit in a couple of times and a BBQ (we did not use this)
Comfy bed and good shower
We were initially concerned about parking but we used the car park near the leisure centre (Trenwith Car Park) there is a regular bus (no.2) which runs every 10 minutes to the town centre (just around the corner from the old bookshop) and back ....we walked down which took about 10 minutes mainly down steps, but then caught the bus back up to the car when we needed to leave St Ives.
Would highly recommend and would not hesitate to stay again

Comfortabel huis in sfeervolle stad
Het huis is van alle gemakken voorzien en er ontbreekt niets om er ook meerdere weken in te verblijven. Het centrum en de het strand zijn direct om de hoek. Wij hebben een top vakantie gehad. Tip: parkeer de auto bij Trenwith car park.

The rental was very cozy and comfy. The only suggestion I would make is to have a sheet with instructions for use of the heat, can we use the fireplace? Also, we would prefer to have a cafetiere to make coffee. The pod coffee makers, I don't feel make a good cup of coffee and you also don't use throw away pods which is wasteful and uses materials that get wasted and go to the dump. All in all we had a very nice stay and loved the Town of St. Ives!

Perfection!
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!

Little gem in the heart of st Ives
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.

A perfect accommodation!
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.

Perfect location!
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.

Perfect cosy couples Christmas getaway
The old bookshop was a delight to stay in. The pictures didn’t really do it justice on how cute and cosy it is. The Christmas book tree in the window was so brilliant. We had wine, mince pies, fresh bread, butter and milk waiting for us - lovely touch and very much appreciated. It was spotlessly clean. The location was perfect - just a stones throw from the hustle and bustle. The log fire was great a big basket of logs was provided. We loved our stay x

Extended stay
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.

Bookshop Cottage
I absolutely loved everything about this very central St Ives cottage. It’s only a one minute walk to bars, restaurants, beaches. We stayed for a week and really felt at home. Everything works in this cottage. The lounge is homely, comfy armchairs and has an eating/dining area inside and also in the delightful garden. The kitchen is extremely well equipped and the owners left us some fresh milk, orange juice, biscuits and a Cornish cream tea, a bowl of fruit and a bottle of wine, which was extremely welcome. Extra touches were tea, coffee, sugar, cleaning materials, washing up liquid, hand soaps. The owners literally thought of everything you need home from home. The lounge and bedroom have good tvs. The bed was also very comfortable and the bathroom had everything you could need. The cottage was spotless throughout and it was an absolute joy staying there. It’s clear this cottage is very loved. I would definitely stay here again, don’t hesitate to book it.

A fantastic stay in a charming small home in the very centre of St.Ives!
This is a beautiful traditional home in St.Ives which has an unbelievable location right in the centre of town. The walk to the beach is literally 1-2 minutes and you're moments from the main thorough-fair of shops and cafes. My friend and I stayed for three nights and we loved it. The house was super clean on our arrival and there were some lovely treats too. We'd definitely rebook and stay here again. There's a small courtyard garden at the back, the kitchen is really well equipped and there's a television in the lounge and in the bedroom. The house although traditional has loads of modern touches that made the stay really comfortable and easy. Would go back next month if I could! Thank you Jemma.
