We went on our first shearings holiday in April the Bay Hotel in St Ives was very good. The Food was brillant and service from staff outstanding. The manager and his wife Caroline greeted us on arrival and could not do enough to make our stay comfortable. The coach driver Chris had a lot of informative info and our journey... More

My wife and I have been to this hotel twice,usually at end of February. It is used by the coaching firm Shearings,but non the less one is treated as an individual.Food was excellent,bedroom adequate,situation in St Ives to dream of,evening entertainment enjoyable,and very reasonably priced.Looking forward to next year already!!

We enjoyed a fantastic stay here last month with National Holidays. Whilst myself and my partner were the youngest in our party (late 30's) we enjoyed every minute of it. The view from our room was stunning and even the building work going on over the road didn't spoil our stay. The staff were all friendly and polite, the meals... More

Read Vals review as she shown me her room which smelled really bad of damp, had a ripple in the carpet and boarded and... More

This hotel is terrific value for what you get. Ok parts of it are a little dated, and I've had bigger more luxurious rooms. But it was warm, comfortable with TV, WC & shower, tea making facilities. What more do you need. Hotel meals were good with plenty of choice. Entertainment every night of varying quality, but some very good.... More

On arrival with National Holidays end Feb 2012 manager got on coach and introduced himself which was nice touch. Driver Andy very knowledgable and sociable. I'd requested room accessible by stairs (can't take lift/claustrophobic) and with sea view and got a room with balcony (not many of these) - the view was perfect - hotel just across road from beach/sea...

Stayed at this hotel for 4 days. The hotel is extremely dated. The standard room was dreadful. On-suite had no shower, bath only. Damp on bathroom wall. With reference to the double bed, I have thrown away better mattresses - extremely uncomfortable. The rooms need a total revamp to attract us for any future use. The staff however (except one)...

Revisited this hotel two weeks ago, therefore this is my 2nd review. My gripe is really with Shearings themselves as we did not receive what we had originally booked & paid for....... ie free drinks from 7.30-10.30. instead, we were presented with vouchers for 4 free drinks per evening, also there were NO free newspapers in lounge as detailed on...
