The parking is great
Mrs Thornley Jun 2024
Lovely property for 2 people with a rare parking space right outside & close to everything but quiet. Nice size bathroom.
Mrs Price Jan 2024
Great location and having parking directly outside is a bonus. However, the property did disappoint us for several reasons which we have since reported back to Aspects maintenance.

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry if the property did not meet your expectations and we will be looking into the points you have raised. Had you been in touch during your stay we would have been more than happy to address as many of these areas of concern as possible, such as the bathroom light and the washing machine door, so that your holiday could get back on track.

Excellent location close to the shops restaurants and harbour in St Ives. Having parking for a small / medium sized car was a real bonus and you don’t need to bring your own bathrobes. Has everything you need to a week in St Ives.
Mr Groves Nov 2023
Brilliant little cottage for 2
Miss Woods Oct 2023
We enjoyed our stay at Harts. The property was clean and in a good location. We had a added bonus of a parking space. When we arrived there was milk, tea, sugar and coffee sachets so we could have a drink. Another suprise was a nice bottle of wine.
Mrs Guy Aug 2023
Great place to stay. Its on the level so no hill climbing. It has a parking space and is very roomy and bright.
Mr Chambers Jul 2023
A lovely small cottage in an excellent location with everything you need and a parking space for your car which is a bonus and dog friendly too.
Ms Bleasby Jul 2023
Lovely stay at this very comfortable accommodation. Everything you need and a great location for access to town and beaches. Parking space is a bonus.
Mr Mander Jun 2023
First time at Harts and we’ve booked to return next year! Nice little dog friendly property. Great to have the parking. Lovely and clean and tucked away in a quiet little spot, yet near the centre.
Ms Bunce May 2023
Overall a great accommodation
Mr Sanderson Apr 2023
Just had a lovely week at the apartment. Very clean and in a great location and the parking spot is real bonus. Just word of warning the oven didn’t really work properly and the Wi-Fi kept disconnecting but apart from that it was a very enjoyable stay. We will definitely use aspects again the future.

We are glad that you liked it here and thanks for letting us know about the oven and wifi. We have let the owner know, who will get those looked into straight away. Thanks again and we hope that we will see you back again soon. Tanya, Customer Services
Excellent service from Aspects, Harts has great location, dog friendly and parking which is unusual in St Ives.
Mrs Marsh Apr 2023
This was our second Christmas at Harts (with my Dad and Step-Mum staying below at Number One). Great apartment with everything thought of. Beautiful gifts left by the owners (thank you) and wine and milk in the fridge - always very useful. Excellent to have parking right in town and everything within a very easy walk (even for the old folk!). We had a housekeeping issue on arrival but it was sorted kindly, quickly and very efficiently by Sara in the harbour office at Aspects and the lovely housekeeper at Star. Both being a credit to the hospitality trade. The apartment does get very warm, we even had the windows open for 2 afternoons, however it was mild this Christmas. There was some noise from the Theatre opposite but it was happy noise and never bothered us too much. Would highly recommend both Aspects and Harts to friends and family wishing to stay in beautiful St Ives.

Welcome back to Harts! We are so pleased to hear you had a warm and cosy returning stay. Once again, we are ever so sorry you experienced a housekeeping issue on your arrival, but it's so good to hear that Sarah and the housekeeper managed to get everything back on track for you as quickly and thoroughly as possible. As the property is in a central location, there can be higher levels of external noise at times, during your stay the Kids R Us theatre put on a production of Elf Jr, which was very successful! We hope we will see you and your family and friends back very soon. Katy, Customer Services.
We have used this accommodation several times. Never had a problem. Always clean. Well equipped. Well thought out for a lovely holiday!
Mr Jones Nov 2022
Absolutely lovely place to stay . So comfy and welcoming and the parking was a bonus . It is so conveniently placed in St Ives. Would fully recommend and we will definately book again .
Mrs McKay Nov 2022
A great, comfortable and well-equipped holiday home. Everything we needed for a fantastic holiday x
Mrs Dapp Oct 2022
Lovely clean accommodation. Short walk in to centre of St Ives and harbour. Good location would stay there again.
Mrs Dunnett Aug 2022
Harts is a lovely little cottage in a great location with the added bonus of a space to park your car and is dog friendly too.
Ms Bleasby Jul 2022
I had a great stay at Harts, the location was spot on being in a quite area but also close to everything and also above street level. The apartment was very clean and tidy and well equipped and light and airy,it was great to have all the windows opened in what was a heatwave when I was there.The parking space is a fantastic bonus when staying in St Ives it enables you to have days out and not worry about finding a space when you return.I would not hesitate to stay at Hearts again when I return.
Mr Turner Jun 2022
Harts is a lovely apartment within 5 minutes walk from the harbour, having the bonus of parking your car outside the front door. Close to shops, restaurants, pubs & take aways.
Mr Laidler Apr 2022
Great place location wise, drive right up to the door. Just a few steps to negotiate
Mr Smith Mar 2022
We had a great holiday at Harts. Cottage had everything you could need and was clean and tidy when we arrived. The Car Parking space is a real bonus especially when unpacking though be aware there are quite a lot of steep steps up to the property entrance. Location of the cottage is excellent only minutes from all the shops/ Restaurants and Take Away's and the Harbour. A lovely cottage and we would certainly recommend it.
Mrs Cowling Mar 2022
Well positioned cosy apartment for exploring all of St Ives. Harts sits at the rear of the theatre. Relatively quiet over New Year apart from revellers returning home. Parking is a bonus but will be tight if one or both cars are big. The stone steps are steep and would definitely be unsuitable for anybody with mobility issues. The kitchen is well appointed and there’s everything you need for a hot drink when you arrive. The bathroom has a very narrow bath with an overhead shower. We liked the bedroom up in the roof. Great for listening to stormy winter weather and views of rooftops up to the brewery. The only let down was the WiFi and tv reception both of which were pretty non existent. This wouldn’t be an issue in warmer weather if you were able to be out most of the time, but Dec/Jan bring cold dark evenings.

We are sorry for the issues with the TV and wifi, this is certainly not the norm here. Trades have since attended and resolved the issues with both. Thank you for letting us know so that we could get this addressed. Tanya, Customer Services
Our second Christmas in a row here, although last year we stayed below at Number One (my Dad and Step-Mum stayed there this year so we could be 'together' for Christmas). Harts was more roomier with the bedroom on the 3rd floor of the building. Lovely gifts left by the owners that were very much appreciated. Everything we needed and more. Great location with a parking space. Aspects are a joy to book with and any problems were sorted in a friendly and efficient way. Our only issue is the price for 2022 has gone up significantly which now makes it out of our price range.
Miss Symons Jan 2022
We would recommend this holiday let to family and friends and will book again.
Mr Baxter Dec 2021
We absolutely loved our recent stay at Harts. The location was perfect for us, just a few minutes walk into the centre of St Ives, and having a parking space was brilliant. The cottage was well equipped and comfortable.
Mrs Abdous Nov 2021
Great location, parking space was so helpful couldn’t have managed without. Lovely cosy apartment with great facilities. Stairs upto the apartment are quite steep, just something to be mindful of. Plenty of room for the two of us and our dog, definitely recommend Harts if you’re staying in St Ives.
Miss Elstob Oct 2021
Nice living space and kitchen with bedroom fine for couples. A short meander to the shops, eateries and the harbour. Loads of windows letting in loads of light - just a bit hot for wonderful weeks like we had. Steep steps up to Harts but fine for the likes of us - both over 50 and our small dog. St.Ives is just wonderful loads of beautiful beaches, shops and eateries - Tate modern, Barbara Hepworth garden and loads of small galleries - all illuminated by that crystal clear bluey light almost unique to the area.
Mr Hotchkin Jul 2021
Excellent Location Stayed in Harts really good space for a one bedroomed cottage, well equipped, parking space, enjoyed our stay, highly recommended this very cute cottage only 5 minutes from all the shops, and fabulous beaches
Mrs Ashworth Jul 2021
Great little place which we've stayed at a few times now. Brilliant to have a parking space so we can go out without worrying if we can find a space upon return.
Mrs Leech May 2021
Lovely, comfortable and well presented flat with all mod cons and the essential car parking space which took a Volvo XC60. 16 steps to the entrance but they get easier as the week goes by! All in all, a great property within an easy 5 minute walk of the harbour and Fore Street. We'd definitely book again
Mr Lea Nov 2020
Lovely apartment. Clean comfortable & cosy. Excellent location with the added bonus of a parking space. Will certainly be booking again!
Mrs Mycroft Oct 2020
Excellent accomodation,very well laid out, along with location and having a private car park. Only down side could do with a new sofa.
Mrs Sandick Oct 2020
Reply from Aspects Holidays
It sounds like Harts worked perfectly for your holiday, and here in St Ives, private parking is certainly a huge bonus. Thank you for your feedback on the sofa; these can be quite subjective things and as we haven't had this mentioned before, we will monitor feedback for now, but will check it on our next inspection and make the owner aware of your feedback. When you stay in a property for a few days or more, you get to experience things in a different way than we do, so we really do appreciate the feedback; it is very helpful. Thank you again and we hope to see you back soon. Lucy, Customer Services
Lovely spacious property close to the beach with a parking place
Mr Harris Aug 2020
Harts was very nicely decorated and very comfortable with everything you needed for a good holiday stay, very close to all amenities and dog friendly too, although my two Frenchies found the stairs leading up to the flat very steep and a bit scary, the cleaning also left a bit to be desired, which is unusual for Aspects.
Mrs Wheeler Jul 2020
Reply from Aspects Holidays
Thanks for your review; it's great to hear how well the property worked for you (apart from the external stairs). We are very sorry to hear that you had felt that the cleanliness was not to the high standards that you have come to expect from properties that we market. That is certainly not the 'norm' for this property and housekeeper, who has always received very good feedback, and would have happily returned to address any areas of concern had we been aware, so we can only apologise at this point. Having now been made aware of this though, your comments have been discussed with the housekeeper and we will closely monitor further feedback, so thank you for bringing it to our attention. Tanya, Customer Services
Great location and furnishings.
Mr Lane Sep 2019
This property is amazing it’s location cannot be beaten. The parking is straight outside the property on a quiet road. On arrival we had a welcome pack including wine, milk, dishwasher tablets, tea,coffee washing up things. The property is spotlessly clean and very well equipped including a hair dryer powerful shower and comfy bed. Enjoy
Mrs Calderbank Aug 2019

Ms Hunter Apr 2019
Stayed for a New Year. Even had a Xmas tree which made it very festive. Everything you need for an enjoyable holiday. After spending all day out just a short walk from the centre and your back at the cottage. Wonderful. Would recommend.
Mrs Worthington Jan 2019
Lovely apartment that was close to all the amenities of St Ives, in an ideal place with the bonus of easily accessible private parking. Ideal little place for two people to stay. We felt at home as soon as we got there and even our dog 'Henry' felt welcome with the dog bed, treats and tag (just in case). Owners who lived locally were very friendly and even came out to wish us a safe journey home. All in all a lovely stay in a lovely apartment. Many thanks ,Rob,Cal and Henry.
Mr Forrester Sep 2018
We had a great week staying at Hart’s. Excellent location which is so close to the main high street and beach.
Miss Davies Sep 2018
A lovely clean cottage well situated in St Ives and with the bonus of a car parking space the only downside is it can be quite noisy.
Ms Bleasby Jul 2018
Reply from Aspects Holidays
Thank you for your comments, we are glad to hear that you liked it here. Being in such a fantastic central location, you may hear some of the hustle and bustle of the town at times, but generally this is not an issue that we hear from guests. There will be more of a risk of noise at certain times, such as during peak weeks, or if the theatre has a production on, but we hope that you agree that it is absolutely worth it for this great location. Hopefully see you again soon! Tanya, Customer Services
Delightfully spacious place for two finished to high stardard in quiet back street, close to centre of St Ives with parking space. A real gem!
Mrs Tutt Jun 2018
We had a great week visiting St Ives. Harts is perfectly located in the centre of town, just outside of the hustle & bustle of the main streets (so not noisy) but not too far out either; we could walk to the shops & harbour within 5 minutes. We also appreciated the huge bonus of a parking spot & enjoyed the luxury of not having to get in the car once during our week's stay. A lovely week's stay, thank you.
Mr Lewis Apr 2018
The cottage was a perfect stay for me & my wife also are two small Dogs love every small touch you put in place from there bed's to there treats.
Mr Taylor Feb 2018
Delightful cottage and location was excellent for seeing beautiful St lves,alittle tight with parking but was made aware of this but with the friendly help with the couple in the cottage below this wasn’t a problem,will definitely visit again really enjoyed our stay.

Lovely flat, well appointed, close to centre of town and beaches.
Mrs Marsh Sep 2017
Overall the quality of the fixtures and fittings are very good as is the location of the property and the added benefit of its own dedicated parking spot. On arrival you are made to feel really welcome inside the property with the inclusion of doggy treats as well as welcome tray for us including tea,coffee, milk and a cheeky bottle of wine, all of which we have never experienced before. Would definitely recommend this property and Aspect holidays to one and all - well done!

Ms Stanbridge Aug 2015
We loved our time at Harts, it was very welcoming for us and our mini schnauzer Holly, who loved the big comfy bed, biscuits etc. Excellent cleanliness throughout, good range of equipment, we cooked some lovely meals. Very spacious and very comfortable. Only short walk to the shops, beaches etc .St Ives is very dog friendly we were able to take Holly with us without any problems. She absolutely adored the beaches. Highly recommendable.
Mrs Lees Aug 2015
Harts was a delightful property. On arriving the welcome pack made us and the dog smile. The bathrobes and bedroom made it feel as if we were staying at a spa and it was a joy to have a parking space.
Mrs John Jun 2015
Great cottage in a quiet location just a few minutes stroll from the shops and seafront. High standard of cleanliness and decor, would recommend highly, particularly as it has the advantage of parking space for a small car, which is a bonus in St Ives.
Mr Haynes Mar 2015
A really lovely little place, felt like our home from home straight away which was made even better by the thoughtful touches, such as the welcome package for us and our dog and the cosy decor. Perfect for two people, great location and a big bonus is the parking space! Also spotlessly clean, would definitely recommend this cottage and will be making a booking for next year. Thank you Aspects and Harts for a relaxing, hassle free holiday!
