Caroline 10/10

Perfect. Not long enough!

Pros: The breakfast list was extensive and delicious! Julie (the owner) was very flexible to mix and match to suit our requirements (vegetarian). Her presentation and attention to detail was outstanding. All preserves were homemade. The accommodation is gorgeous. You feel like you are staying in a good friends home. Both Julie and Justin are so friendly (as is their gorgeous dog Arthur!) and helpful whilst remaining professional. Infact Justin very kindly drove us to the station in the next town as we would have missed our train - totally not in their job description!!

Cons: The weather!!!!! Although even the rain could not take away from the beauty that St Ives offers!

Nice and cozy

Pros: Lovely and homey bed & breakfast, we stayed over Easter and Julie & Justin were amazing hosts who make their bed and breakfast feel like we were right at home. Julie makes an amazing breakfast with plenty of choices and Justin made sure to recommend all the great places around. They both run an amazing b&b, everything was very clean and the location is great to spend a few days in St. Ives.

Cons: Everything was amazing.

Great place to stay

Pros: Had a great stay with Justin, Julie and Arthur the dog. Friendly hosts, fabulous breakfasts and great facilities in the room. Highly recommend the Olive Branch. Only advice is that the area is hilly but good for keeping fit.
