Count House Cottage B&B

26th September 2022:

The Manager Christina absoutely warm and friendly. Giving you good local information about were to goto.

Lands End very interesting. Becks Fish & Chips Restaurant good value for money (very large portions)

Would Recommend: Yes

4th August 2022:

Count House Cottage is an exceptionally clean and well-appointed B&B. The proprietor is extremely friendly and takes great care in ensuring guests are happy at all times. The rooms are spotless with very comfortable beds and bathroom suites that appear to have been fitted very recently. The breakfast is excellent- the very enjoyable full-English breakfast is preceded by fresh strawberries and yoghurt with plenty of tea, coffee and toast. The standards of cleanliness and service throughout are excellent. The proprietor is able to provide genuine and useful advice about local amenities. Count House Cottage is a high-class establishment where guests are able to feel relaxed and enjoy superb customer service.

We were advised by the proprietor to book restaurants in advance (we were also given some recommendations by her). This proved to be very good advice as it was difficult to book restaurants in St. Ives and Carbis Bay whilst we were staying. There is an excellent fish and chip restaurant in Carbis Bay- Beck's. This restaurant does not require booking, serves superb fish and chips (gluten-free and other dietary requirements are well catered for) and also has other options in the menu. Beck's is clearly popular with local residents as well as holidaymakers- despite the restaurant being very busy each time we visited, we never had to wait more than 10 minuted for a table. Count House Cottage has a bus stop situated at the front off the property where there are frequent buses to and from St Ives. Carbis Bay railway station is nearby although the walk is rather hilly- downhill to the station and uphill on the return. With Carbis Bay. St. Ives, Hayle and Gwithian Sands beaches to choose from, those wishing to spend time on the beach have plenty of options. Carbis Bay is within one hour of Lizard, Porthcurno (Minnack Theatre), Land's End within half-an-hour of Penzance.

Would Recommend: Yes

Christine is a lovely hostess, full of knowledge & tips about the area. Our room was lovely, spotless , nice view & very comfortable. Breakfast was lovely.

Portminister cafe best meal a bit expensive but far ahead of the other restaurants.

Would Recommend: Yes

20th July 2022:

This is our 5th stay at Count House Cottage and received a very warm welcome from Christine. As usual the room was exceptionally clean and a wonderful view over Carbis Bay could be seen from the bedroom window.A nice touch was a complimentary box of Cornish fudge left for us on the table. Thank you for a most enjoyable stay.

As with most other popular holiday resorts that get very crowded in the holiday season it is always preferable to book restaurants beforehand. There are many restaurants near to Carbis Bay and recommended are the Watermill and The Old Quay House in Lelant and also Becks Fish & Chip restaurant on the main road in Carbis Bay just a two minute drive from the B&B.

Would Recommend: Yes

Count House is a 1st class B&B, this was my 4th stay at this B&B, christine & geoff bend over backwards to make you feel welcome, Accommodation is spotlessly clean and the breakfast is lovely (well done Geoff)

30th October 2021:

Ideal situation with parking facilities which is a must in St Ives. Geoff and Christine are perfect hosts and nothing is too much trouble. Very friendly, relaxed atmosphere. We would highly recommend staying here.

Book restaurants well in advance as you could be limited to what time you can eat at. A lot of restaurants are not taking bookings, so you will need to queue. You need to be prepared for lots of hills, so good walking shoes are a must.

Would Recommend: Yes

Lovely clean B&B perfect location . Breakfast was delicious with so many options to choose from . Christine made us feel really welcome. Thank you . Would definitely recommend a stay here.

Would Recommend: Yes

29th September 2021:

Lovely B&B with very clean rooms and tastefully decorated.The bedroom had a fantastic sea view and was provided with all the usual facilities.Excellent parking with space for five cars.The breakfasts were excellent and most special dietary requirements could be catered for.

As parking in St. Ives is very restricted a good tip is to use the Trenwith car park and take the shuttle bus into the town centre. The Watermill restaurant in nearby Lelant provides good quality food at very reasonable prices and Becks fish and chip restaurant is only a short distance away providing a spacious car park and a varied menu other than fish and chips.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you so much For writing a review for us. We appreciate you taking the time to write such a thoughtful review and we are very pleased to hear you enjoyed another relaxing stay with us. We hope to see you and Pat again soon. All the very best, Christine & Geoff

20th August 2021:

Christine is a lovely host, really welcoming and nothing is too much trouble. She has great local knowledge which was so useful to us because we were only there for a short break.The property is in a stunning location and has great off the road parking facilities. The decor throughout was beautiful and our room was very attractively decorated both luxurious and very comfortable. The breakfast was excellent, beautifully presented and tailored to our tastes. I would definitely stay again and recommend it to others.

There is an excellent bus service which is accessed directly opposite the property with regular buses to St Ives and other local areas. There is also access to two open top buses which are hop on hop off you can use to travel all across the Cornish coast as far Lands End and the other way to Newquay. Christine gave us details an we didn’t need use the car at all during the stay. The buses are very competitively priced so we saved on petrol and parking and saw so much more of the area than we could have done driving. St Ives and Carbis Bay are within easy walking distance and there is lovely coastal path to both There are some great restaurants and pubs close by but due to the overwhelming demand at the moment it’s best to book in advance where you can. We did manage to find somewhere to eat but it we had to try several places before we could get in and then it was just luck that we got there just as a table opened up. Many were booked up until the end of the month and some until September. Attractions were exactly the same, we wanted to visit the Minack theatre but every tour slot was taken up for the few days we were there and other attractions needed to be booked at least a couple of days in advance.

Would Recommend: Yes

Nothing was too much trouble for Geoff and Christine who were superb hosts. Everything was of a very high standard in our room and breakfast was excellent

Local pub quite good but nearby Spanish restaurant La Casita was superb Walk into St Ives but get a taxi back as very steep incline

Would Recommend: Yes

4th July 2021:

Very friendly, warm welcome. Nothing seemed too much trouble to make the stay a great time. COVID friendly, but still accommodating. Lovely room, and a nice breakfast area, . Well presented place, and ideally situated just 1 mile from St. Ives, and central for all other places. Bus stop right opposite making travel easy.

At present, you would need to book to eat due to COVID, but the first night, you just visit where you want to eat and then book ready for the rest of the week.

Lovely bed and breakfast and Christine is an excellent host. Breakfast is beautifully cooked and rooms are spotlessly clean. I can highly recommend this bed and breakfast.

Restaraunt recommendations are the gannet inn carbis bay, la casita at carbis bay, and source kitchen in st ives. All these restaurants serve excellent high quality food.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review on our website. We are very happy to hear you enjoyed another few days stay with us. We hope to see you again one day in the future. Best regards, Christine

15th June 2021:

You couldn’t ask for anymore at the Count House B&B, the room is a good size and very clean accompanied with a great shower in the bathroom, the property also has ample parking. Christine is a fantastic host and very attentive with helpful local suggestion for places to go and where to eat, Geoff’s breakfast is well and truly first class. I would thoroughly recommend staying here if you are visiting the area, I will most certainly stay again when I’m next in St Ives.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thanks so much for your lovely review of the B&B. We really appreciate all our guests' comments especially those who truly appreciate all our efforts. We sincerely hope to see you again one day. All the best, Christine

13th June 2021:

The owners of the property Christine and Geoff are the most friendliest and helpful people you could meet. They made our stay very memorable with the little touches they left in the room. Room I stayed in had a sea view and waking up to that every morning, all I can say is WOW!! Breakfast room is set out very well with two settings for guests so no one clashes. There is a very good selection of food to have for breakfast, the cooked breakfast comes out very hot and I would recommend the croissant, mmm.

The B&B is within easy reach of everything, if you wanted to drive or take the bus. Bus stop is just outside the property! St Ives is in easy walking distance as is Carbis Bay Beach and all I can say is the beaches in St Ives and surrounding area are better than going aboard in my opinion. Lands End, Penzance, Falmouth and other attractions are easy to get to. Restaurants and the pub in Carbis Bay are very close by and reasonable priced and there are many more in St Ives itself.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you so much for your lovely review. We are so pleased you both enjoyed your stay with us. We appreciate your kind thoughts and hope to see you both again one day soon. Best regards, Christine & Geoff

Hi Olly Thanks so much for the lovely review. We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay with us. It was a pleasure to meet you both and we wish you well with your future plans.. Kind regards Christine

15th December 2020:

Christine couldn’t have been more helpful. The service and breakfast were first class. Hopefully I’ll be able to return to Count House Cottage when things return to something like normality.

Carbis Bay is very picturesque and worth the walk down the hill to the long sandy beach. St Ives is a 20 minute walk also downhill and is a lovely place to visit.

Would Recommend: Yes

6th November 2020:

Friendly host ,nothing to much trouble We had a very enjoyable stay we recommend la Casita restaurant also Becks fish&chip restaurant and the Cornish Arms. Coast drive down to Sennen Cove a must and Godrevy where if you walk to the end can see a seal colony

19th October 2020:

A beautiful location with modern fittings and a warm and attentive welcome. Comfortable and relaxing room with a sea view as a bonus. Great breakfast included. Excellent covid19 precautions throughout. A good car parking area too.

Bus stop opposite for trip to Penzance or to St Ives town. Numerous really good eateries on harbour side. Also worth walking to town via nearby footpath, mainly downhill,about 25 minutes,and get bus back! Large Tesco store nearby.

Would Recommend: Yes

11th October 2020:

Our hosts, Christine and Geoff, work tirelessly to make sure your stay is perfect, and it was. The room was lovely, with a very comfortable bed and a gorgeous sea view. Breakfast was delicious and beautifully presented. Christine’s local knowledge was great for finding fabulous walks (and afternoon tea). A great location too, with St Ives harbour just a mile away. You’re definitely our number 1 x

The Cornish Arms is very close by (5min walk),and they do good food. La Casita, Spanish and Mediterranean, was definitely my favourite restaurant, the food was delicious. Parking anywhere is difficult, I recommend walking everywhere instead, if you are able to, take some good walking shoes and enjoy the stunning views. The Tinners (Arms?) was wonderful, all tables inside were booked, but it was warm enough to sit outside and the views were fantastic. They have a very tame Robin in the beer garden, who enjoyed a bit of cheese! Walking some of the coastal paths is a must. Absolutely amazing views THE most delicious afternoon tea was found at the Lakeside Cabin Cafe. Enjoy every minute of your stay x

Would Recommend: Yes

10th October 2020:

Price is excellent, I have stayed with my wife here a number of times and honestly I am so happy we found this place. I will start from check in, Christine and Geoff very nice, friendly and professional and met us on arrival. We felt special from the beginning to the end. The room was lovely, super clean with most comfortable bed. The bathroom with shower very clean. Christine was very helpful in directing us to nice pub and restaurants , so we have great night out as well. After we came back - in every room water bottles, tea and coffee and a lovely food hamper of Cornish goodies. Bus stop right out side so no need to drive into st. Ives. So handy. definitely will back there and will recomend this peace of heaven to everyone. THANK YOU

Always ask for recommendations

We had a lovely holiday,our stay at the Count House was made memorable by the caring attention of Chris & Geoff. This is our third visit and the hospitality, breakfasts and welcome, was as expected.....super. Thankyou Chris and Geoff for making us feel, so at home. Best wishes for the future. Roger & Jenny

Some great Restaurants within walking distance...The Gannet, 10 mins walk,La Casitas ( paella). 15 mins walk. In St. Ives...The Firehouse, Porth Meor Beach Cafe were superb. And of course............. Geoffs breakfasts at the Count House. The train ride from St Ives to St. Erth, Beautiful coastal trip only 10 minutes each way but well worth the effort.

Would Recommend: Yes

23rd September 2020:

Christine and Geoff are lovely ,friendly people who can’t do enough for you. The B&B is comfortable and of a very high standard and is in a great location. There is ample parking for each guest. Christine is the perfect host and the full English that Geoff makes is delicious .

I would recommend La Casita amazing food and you can walk to this about 10 mins down the road. Carbis beach is a short walk away gorgeous beach but be prepared to walk back up steep hills. Cellar Bistro in St Ives lovely restaurant which we would recommend.

Would Recommend: Yes

20th September 2020:

19th September 2020:

This was the first time we had stayed in a bed and breakfast and we couldn’t fault anything , we felt very safe with the extra procedures that had been put in place by Christine and Geoff . The rooms were spotless and of high standard , extra touches such as chocolates and sweets were really appreciated . The breakfast cooked by Geoff and served by Christine was delicious ! Christine took time to tell us about the area and recommended local restaurants. We would definitely return and would highly recommend it to anyone

Definitely recommend La casita in Carbis Bay . Seafood cafe in St ives and Porthminster Beach cafe all were extremely high standard .Would avoid Carbis Bay Hotel beautiful view but extremely expensive and poor quality food ! Would definitely reccommend to prebook all restraunts well in advance as you couldn’t get any walk ins Local train service to St Ives was a easy walk and very reliable also coastal walk had amazing views

We stayed over for two nights on the August Bank Holiday and it could not have been any better. Christine was very kind, welcoming, helpful, attentive and had managed the property very well with COVID in mind. The rooms and whole property were spotless throughout, with lots of small touches that go a long way to making you feel welcome. Geoff’s Breakfast was excellent with plenty of options available. The lovely village of St. Ives is a picturesque walk away. We could not recommend this place enough if you are in Cornwall. We’ll be back one day!

Would Recommend: Yes

23rd August 2020:

This b&b is spotlessly clean throughout. The owners have gone to great lengths to provide a stay as comfortable & relaxing as is possible. 5 rooms in total. Our room was lovely, good size with beautiful decor & little touches. Blackout blinds, lush carpet, comfortable bed & good size shower with proper pressure! Breakfast really good as well & the owners Christine & Geoff deserve a lot of credit for their vision & bringing this place up to a standard that will be hard to find elsewhere.

Just try as many places as possible! Godrevy lighthouse & beach is well worth a look. Lands end is a must. St Michael's mount is only 15mn away but book well in advance! Other then that the 2 main beaches in st ives itself or carbis bay area should be visited especially the beach in st ives which is full of restaurants, other places to eat & drink & some nice little shops located on the cobbled side streets.

Would Recommend: Yes

Our hosts Helen and Neil were perfect, nothing was too much trouble. The room was just as it was advertised and the little extra touches were appreciated. There was free WiFi and you could get Netflix if you had an account and BBC iplayer which was a must.

The B&B was situated in a beautiful spot. It was on a bus route into St Ives and to Hayle, Truro and Penzance. Carbis Bay railway line was about 5min walk and into St Ives it was about 30 mins. Carbis bay beach wasn't too far from the accommodation. I would recommend this place because in my opinion it is the best in Carbis Bay and you've a few restaurants with a 5 to a 10 walk.

Would Recommend: Yes

As a returning guest, I highly recommend Count House Cottage. Helen and Neil are excellent hosts, very welcoming and friendly. Rooms are immaculate and the attention to detail is second to none. Breakfast is amazing and will keep you going all day. You will not be disappointed if you stay here.

Plenty of walks on your doorstep, walk the coastal path into St. Ives or catch the bus or the train. Parking is a bit of a nightmare in St. Ives so having a bus stop outside the cottage is handy. Buses run every 15 mins. There a plenty of restaurants in Carbis and St. Ives for all tastes and pockets! Great base for local attractions and further afield.

23rd August 2019:

Enjoyed from start to finish. Helen & Neil are wonderful hosts who go the extra mile as a norm. The breakfasts are cooked to perfection. We booked direct and received a hamper which was lovely. The room we had was a sea view which was lovely to gaze out at. I have made a small comment about it being exposed when you are getting ready or coming out of the bathroom as you have to pull down the dark blinds rather than have curtain to retain the light and keep privacy but I'm sure it's not an issue for other guests. Thank you so much!

La Casita is really close and whilst pricey is good but please make sure you book in advance. Becks Fish & Chips looks good too but we didn't have time to go. Carbis Bay Beach is a nice way to spend time but is a bit of a walk from the car park and an even steeper one back. St Ives is lovely and we went to the Lifeboat Inn which was a little crowded due to rain but good food nonetheless. I would visit again outside of school season as it was a little too busy at times.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you both very much for taking the time to leave such a positive and thorough review. We have noted your comments regarding the blinds and will look at other options for privacy. Kindest regards Helen & Neil

We absolutely loved everything about our stay with Helen and Neil at Count House Cottage. The B&B was beautiful and we had a great view of the sea from our fabulous room. All facilities were great and breakfast was divine every morning. Helen and Neil themselves were amazing hosts and did all they could to help out, as well as noticing a Birthday and leaving a card and gift of their own. Other little touches such as having the bus stop right at the end of the cottage and having their own little drinks fridge in the breakfast room were nice little touches. We would definitely stay at Count House Cottage again and can only hope it won’t be to long!

We absolutely loved St Ives the speedboat experience and trip to seal island are definitely worth it. Whilst in St Ives we ate in the Firehouse bar and restaurant which was gorgeous and an amazing find in Carbis bay itself was La Casita, beautiful food and amazing service!

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you so much for your glowing review and very kind comments that are greatly appreciated. Kindest regards Helen & Neil

Very welcoming, informative and hospitable owners - Neil and Helen - we saw amazing places we never new about and would never have found without them. This was the best B&B we have ever stayed in - true five star luxury from the room layout and facilities to quality of bedding, furnishings and breakfast. Very clean and modern accommodation. Only request would be a fan in the room to keep cool at night. A full 5 stars from us

There is so much to do and see near by a side from some of the best beaches in the UK - just ask Helen what to do and where to go off the beaten track.

Helen and Neil were so nice and helpful - helped us much more than one could expect. Very delicious breakfast, a nice light room with sea view, modern in all ways - and very clean. We loved the place and were sad having to leave.

We enjoyed several meals in a Spanish restaurant in a walking diatance - a nice atmosphere. We loved walking on the coastal paths. Busses get you to nearby places and other villages.

Nothing was too much trouble for Neil & Helen, the house was spotless, we tried to find fault but it was impossible. The breakfasts were immense, the rooms were beautiful, very comfortable and loved the sweets along with the complimentary tea/coffee/Water. Giving away hampers if you book directly was a lovely touch, cannot wait to come back x

We only stayed 2 nights for a wedding so we didn't really go out and see the area, but we did go home via the Minack Theatre, def worth a visit. It was only a 20 minute walk downhill into St Ives where there were lots of good restaurants & bars, the Rum and Crab shack is a must!!

3rd June 2019:

House has been fully upgraded and provides first class facilities for a small B&B. Superb breakfasts, with a great range of cereals, fresh fruit / juices, yoghurts and cooked options. We had room 4, and whilst at the back of the house, is a lovely large room, king size bed and seating area with a sofa. Nice extra touches of bottled water, sweets, toffees and a welcome Cornish hamper of goodies as we booked direct. Hosts Neil and Helen were very attentive. Good range of teas and coffee in room.

A good location to explore both Carbis Bay and St Ives, and on foot albeit are hills to climb. Coast Path accessible from here. We love eating at La Casita, a Spanish/ Italian restaurant at the other end of Carbis Bay. Cornish Arms only a 5 minute walk and does good pub grub. Car park onsite, and recommend using the train to travel in the local area. Lovely views across the Bay from the train which runs along the coastline.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a positive and very thorough review. Kindest regards Helen & Neil

26th May 2019:

This is the second time that we have stayed at this beautiful B&B, the rooms are fabulous and those at the front of the house offer fantastic sea views. Helen and Neal are great hosts and nothing is too much trouble for them. They made us very welcome and offer the choice of either continental or full English breakfasts. There is adequate car parking space for several cars which is a real boon. Will definitely stay at this B&B again when we next re visit Cornwall.

Very handy for visiting St. Ives which is only five minutes away by car. Would recommend parking the car in the long stay car park at the Leisure Centre and catching the Park & Ride bus into the town centre. There are plenty of restaurants within a mile of the B&B with plenty of choices from a Spanish Tapas bar to a traditional Fish & Chip restaurant. A Tesco supermarket is only a five minute walk away.

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you once again for taking the time to leave such an amazing review. We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay and look forward to welcoming you back. Kindest regards Helen & Neil

25th May 2019:

Helen and Neil are wonderful hosts - very welcoming friendly, helpful and full of useful information and advice about the locality. The Count House is spotlessly clean, very comfortable, tastefully decorated, ample parking on site and convenient for bus stops. Breakfast are delicious and perfectly cooked. Helen and Neil go the extra mile to make your stay very enjoyable. They provide so many extras which are totally unexpected but very much appreciated. This B&B is one in a million!

Take the Coast Road double decker service bus from St Ives to Lands End for an exhiliarating drive through the most beautiful and dramatic scenery. Don't forget your camera!

Thank you both so much for leaving such an amazing review. Kindest regards Helen & Neil

12th May 2019:

Hosts are very friendly and helpful. They know the area well and can give advice about places to go and things to see and do. Rooms are clean and freshened daily and there are plenty of supplies of drinks and nibbles. We had lovely views of the sea from our room, a room that is decorated and finished to a high standard, like the rest of the premises. Breakfast had a good variety of fresh produce and the hosts serve this efficiently and to your requirements. The cooked breakfast is delicious. We received a hamper which contained lots of locally sourced treats. I liked the idea of the local produce. A well placed establishment, finely run, by a friendly couple.

Cornish arms is a good traditional pub with nice and reasonably priced homemade food. There is a local fish and chip shop. You can eat in or take away, but be warned; the portions are huge but tasty! We like to walk and the area is full of walking routes. The hosts can tell you about different walks. Walks are signposted generally well but some way-marks and posts are not clear. I would advise to have a good old fashioned map with you. Phone signals can be lost in valleys and small villages. If you’re a good strong walker the costal path to Zennor is worth a look. And if you like reflexology, quite literally around the back of the B&B is a lovely lady called Maria who is vey good and intuitive and can offer a reflexology session for a very reasonable price. Booking is required and the hosts can give you the details.

Absolutely lovely couple, who couldn’t do enough for us...Making us feel at home from home! All dietary requirements met, comfortable beds, large rooms, modern fixtures and fittings, recommendations on places to go, and a beautiful setting in a beautiful home. Amazing little extra details were included in our stay, we honestly couldn’t recommend them any higher if we tried. We will definitely come back, we had an amazing long weekend :)

Porth curno was beautiful, seeing the seals sunbathing at mutton cove was absolutely a must see! St Ives harbour was lovely and had reasonably priced boat trips to see the seals.

This was an amazing place to stay in what I would class as hotel quality rooms. The service, atmosphere and location were superb and at £138 for 2 nights with breakfast was very good value.

5th January 2019:

We had a lovely quiet 2 night stay here beginning of January. The owners were both lovely and friendly. The B and B was beautiful. So clean and modern. The bed was so comfortable and the shower was one of the best we have used. All in all we couldn’t have wished for a better place to stay. Attention to detail was brilliant. To finish, the breakfast lived up to the expectations of the rest of the establishment. Nothing was too much trouble for either of the hosts. Would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for an upmarket holiday in Cornwall.

The coastline around Cornwall is beautiful. St Ives is a beautiful Cornish seaside town. There are lots of quaint shops and good pubs and restaurants to choose from.

Helen and Neil were lovely, friendly, genuine people. The accommodation was clean, fresh and very tastefully done. Breakfast was excellent and always hot. Free car parking space for guests.

Count House cottage is in a quieter area of St Ives away from the hustle and bustle. This is great because St Ives centre is still extremely accessible. There is a bus which stops right outside the B and B which takes about 6 mins into St Ives. There is also a lovely coastal path close by but not suitable for the less able bodied. Having said that, I have 2 knee replacements and I managed it. A short walk away was The Gannet Inn where we had a lovely meal or you can just go in for a relaxing drink.

Would Recommend: Yes

9th October 2018:

Without doubt the best B&B we have ever stayed in. The facilities and helpfulness of Helen and Neil made our stay so pleasant.

Beck's fish and chip resturant not to be missed. Good area for walkers but not so good if you need to use your car, limited and expensive car parking.

Count House Cottage is very new and superbly decorated in a relaxed style. The room we stayed was very comfortable, with a range of teas, coffees, chocolates, biscuits. The hosts were most hospitable, and shared with us tips for visiting nearby St Ives and other locations. The accommodation exudes modernity, with ample parking.

Buses stop near the accommodation. We also tried the memorable train ride to St Ives via Carbis Bay station, a pleasant 15 mins walk away. The property offers everything a tourist needs, and compares favourably with the grossly overpriced self-catering accommodation found closer to Carbis Bay.

This B&B is outstanding, we were blown away by the detail of everything, from the little touches in the room to the amazing breakfast which catered for every person's wish. The friendly welcome, the going above and beyond to ensure you had a relaxing stay, it really was a cut above most hotels, let alone a B&B. Everyone should experience what true, genuine service looks like because it's rare to find these days! .. Well done Helen and Neil, you really have something to be very proud of.

Bus stop to St Ives right out front. Walking distance to a pub, serves meals. Fish, Italian restaurants also close by. Carbis bay walk down hill across road also with cafe restaurant on front of beach. Walk to St Ives about 20 minutes or so, great views on way down. Boat trips available, see seals, dolphins, bird life. Variety of pubs cafes etc, good shops for gifts to wander in and out of.. Well worth trip and stay at Count House Cottage.

24th July 2018:

This was our second visit to Count House Cottage after enjoying our first stay here last year. Everything was as good as we remembered. We stayed in room 2, which as always was spotlessly clean and has everything you need. We had a sea view, and a lovely bay window area to sit in to read and enjoy the view. The breakfasts are delicious, and the choice, especially of fresh fruit is the best we have seen anywhere. Helen and Neil go out of their way to help from Neil carrying your luggage to Helen’s advice on the best beaches or places to eat. They are both always positive and friendly and genuinely welcome guests to their home. There is always laughter at breakfast time as they chat to their guests. It feels like a home from home and we hope to come back each year and would fully recommend this guest house to everyone.

There is a vegetarian restaurant The Bean Inn within walking distance of Count House Cottage. The meals are delicious and although neither of us are vegetarians, we ate there twice. It is a small place and is very popular so I would book in advance. We also tried La Casita which again is within walking distance and would recommend it for the lovely atmosphere, friendly staff and delicious food. The beautiful beaches are too numerous to mention but our favourite was Porthminster beach which is within walking distance and has a lovely beach bar and restaurant.

Would Recommend: Yes

We honestly can't thank you enough for your wonderful review and very kind comments. It was a pleasure to see you both again and we too look forward to your next visit. Kindest regards Helen & Neil

22nd July 2018:

A top quality establishment. Owners Helen and Neil were amazing, their attention to detail is second to none. The bedrooms are large and airy. Extremely clean and the facilities are modern. Breakfast is of a very high standard and lots of choice from fresh fruit and yoghurts to a full English, using quality , local produce. Location wise , it is a short walk into St Ives but has a bustop, right outside, should you fancy a ride into town. There is, also, plenty of parking for cars at the property itself which is a big plus as parking in St Ives can be a devil to find. A real home from home and a shame to leave..

St Ives is a lovely town to visit. You are spoilt for choice for places to eat and drink. I would recommend The Seafood Cafe to eat, fresh fish and seafood. Good prices and you choose from a selection of fresh fish, from the counter display. Also ,if you fancy great gin and tonics, The Silco Searoom makes fantastic ones,from local St Ives gin. It has tasty tapas too. This is located on the harbour front and has views over looking the waterfront. For lighter bites, try the Cornish Deli. Fresh Cornish produce and extremely good coffee. The Cellar Bistro is another place worth a mention, walk along the shopping area and keep a look out for the sign. Food and service is of a high standard. It has special deals between 6 pm and 7 pm.
