Great family friendly house. Great location with parking. Lovely swimming pool and restaurant at the nearby caravan park ( literally across the road open to non residents they do a great Sunday roast ) Local shop a couple of blocks away that sell almost everything. We had a fabulous week, met up with family and grandsons were in the sea everyday. They are tough northerners !!!!

Very tight parking space - small car only if you want the gates closed. Lovely cottage - will definitely visit again.

We are so pleased you had a lovely stay at Tre Lowen Chy! The allocated space is advertised as potentially tricky for larger cars due to the narrow road, but should this not be suitable for your vehicle there is alternative car parking available in the caravan park across the road, for £6 a day. We hope to welcome you back again soon! Katy, Customer Services.
The holiday home was lovely and we will be booking to visit again. We parked in the allocated space in a Renault Kadjar and closed the gates. It was a squeeze, but not too bad. The actual house was amazing - super comfortable and well equipped. The decor was lovely and we had plenty of room. Everything was within a 10 min walk (involving hills), but we liked the exercise. The caravan park on the same road - Ayr Holiday Park- has parking if you can’t get in the space, plus a swimming pool and restaurant that can be used by non-guests. The Spa Shop is a 6 min walk and the small shop - Ayr Rd supplies is even closer for all the quick necessities.100% recommend.

Fantastic place to stay in st ives. Everything was spotlessly clean, we was unable to park the car at the property it’s a very small space but this wouldn’t stop us staying here in the future, we just parked across the road at the campsite for the week (small fee) Would definitely recommend staying here. There’s a very steep hills down to the beach which would be difficult if you had mobility problems.
Mr Cole Jun 2023
Property and location is very good, property has very good facilities and is very clean. Although parking is greatly appreciated, it’s very tricky to get to through a narrow alleyway at the back, making it very difficult to turn into the property even with a small car. St Ives is very lovely, however also very dog friendly, which is good unless you wish to eat in a pub/restaurant that doesn’t allow dogs, I personally prefer to eat on a premises without dogs due to hygiene and allergy reasons.
Mr Jordan May 2023
Fantastic accommodation, had everything we needed. Car park space was a little tricky if you’re not confident with tight spaces. A bit further out of town but a quick 10 minute walk to anywhere we wanted to get.

We are so pleased you had a lovely stay at Tre Lowen Chy. As you mentioned, the car parking space can take some careful manoeuvring, but we try to make it as clear as possible on the property description so that guests can plan accordingly. Being in such a fantastic location does involve an uphill walk back to the property after a day of exploring St Ives, but we hope that you agree that it is worth it! Katy, Customer Services.
A superb property as described and a real home from home which made for a relaxing and very enjoyable stay. Location is nice balance of being slightly up out of town centre but still offering close access to it and the main Porthmere beach (but if you’ve not visited before St.Ives it is hilly). Just be aware parking is not easy as via narrow rear lane and the entrance to rear area of property is awkward due to wall opposite and width of entrance even with gates tied right back. I advise only suitable for one decent sized car parked at an angle if you want to close gates for privacy. If you have a second car I recommend using St. Ives Rugby Club a few minutes drive up the road. Good day and week rates.
Mr Lyons Jul 2022
A great house - very comfortable for up to 7 people. The house has been renovated to a very high standard - the beds and sofas are really comfortable. It had absolutely everything we needed and more.
It’s located on the hill behind state Modern. It’s a steep climb back but the no. 1 bus goes right past the house. It stopped at 6 as we visited out of season but I’m sure it’ll run later during high season.
The house comes with parking but unless you’ve got a small car it’s not useable. We’ve got a BMW X2 which we got in but couldn’t shut the gates behind us which isn’t very secure. We parked at the caravan site directly opposite for only £6 a day good value and very convenient. They said they provide parking all year round. It wouldn’t put us off booking this house again.

We are glad that you liked it here. The owners have put a lot of thought into making it a lovely space for their guests, so we are sure they will love to read your comments. We are sorry if the parking size wasn't what you had expected though. We try to make this as clear as possible on the description by including approximate measurements and advice for larger vehicles. We are glad that you found a solution though. Hopefully we will see you back here again soon. Tanya, Customer Services
Lovely spacious property with clean and modern decoration which made our stay pleasant and comfortable. Parking space although small was a great asset. Bit of a trek up and down the hill especially if you have a dodgy hip like me. We thoroughly enjoyed staying there.

We had a lovely time, the house was very comfortable and well decorated. Thank you, Belinda
Mrs Hughes Oct 2021
We had a fantastic stay at Tre Lowen Chy ! It was so comfortable and fitted the 6 of us with plenty of space. Lovely touches for children with the board games , plastic tableware and fab accessories in the kids bedroom! The house was one of the best we have had the pleasure of staying in and Aspects were so easy to deal with. We will most definitely book again with them. Thank you.

Just spent a great week in St.Ives staying at the wonderful Tre Lowen Chy, with the sun shining everyday. Tre Lowen Chy is a very comfortable house with ample space to relax. It is beautifully furnished with great attention to detail. Careful maneouvring into the rear parking space is required as space in the access road is tight. Great location to walk into St.Ives and venture on coastal walks.
