“Shoreline, built in 1905, maintains a quiet adults-only atmosphere near St Ives' beaches. The location is a real advantage, offering both sea views and a short walk to town. I appreciate the thoughtful touch of breakfast served in-room, a highlight that complements the building's historical charm.”
