Lifeboat Inn

What a fantastic place. We had a fabulous weekend with the most amazing accomadation, food and staff. We just want to say this is a true gem in St Ives. The location is just the best being so the the sea, shops and loverly galleries. We will be back!

Been for a few meals and they were really good, especially the crispy roast potatoes, yorkshires and chicken (or beef). Staff all very friendly and helpful in a really good pub/restaurant. All set in a pretty looking pub in a wonderful location of St ives.

Literally right on a noisy crowded boardwalk. When the tide comes in there is some water to look at. The rest of the time there are some small boats sitting there. Room was missing a phone and other basic amenities. It was not a pleasant experience and I left a day early, losing the money I had spent rather than staying.

On the waterfront is this amazing property. The rooms are pleasant, the place is full of history. Parking is a little difficult and the streets very narrow but it is an ancient town

My 1st visit to St Ives and I’m glad I have a small rental car as the streets are tight! The Inn is directly on the harbor and walking distance to everything! The island car park is about a 10 minute walk and got one of the last spots. The rooms are above the bar and mine doesn’t have a view, but it’s spacious, well decorated and the rain shower is so relaxing! Full breakfast down in the restaurant is very nice. Catherine is so nice and friendly and seems to work nonstop! There’s great coastline walks nearby

Nice reasonably priced apartment with some awful stairs. May have thought twice about booking if I'd known about them. Not ideal if you have mobility issues. 2 night stay so minimal contact with staff but was always courteous with a smile. The skylights were covered in cobwebs & could do with a dusting. I think some had been there as long as the building ;)

Excellent staff, property, pub, location, vibe, and personal touches. Loved it. The one difficulty is the parking.

Perfect location, with awesome harbour views from the lounge area. Clean, & well-maintained. We were missing a towel, hairdryer & the remote for our bedroom TV. Towel & hairdryer were requested a few times, but never materialised. No chopping board or bread knife, so if you're planning a long stay, & enjoy a freshly baked loaf like we do, make sure you pack one. Master bed is not the most comfortable, fine for a few nights - not sure we'd have coped a full week, mattress needs replacing. That said, the location is perfect - there are steep stairs to contend with, so not suitable for those who struggle to walk or have a buggy. Perfect for us with our 3-year-old & 11-year-old. Tea, coffee & sugar included, which is a nice touch for self-catering. We would stay again.

Lovely stay in quirky old building, steep steps up to room which were tricky with a suitcase, but amazing location.
