My family and I take a nice holiday every year. Usually my wife or I will select the destination, but our 15 year old daughter asked if she could have input for our holiday last summer. Knowing we could veto it if it was not a good plan, we agreed. She told us to look at a cottage that she had found when she was browsing https://www.cornishsecrets.co.uk/property-locations/st-ives-holiday-cottages/, and I had to admit that she did pick out a winner. We had never been to St Ives even though we had all heard lots of good stories about it from others who have taken a holiday there.

The particular cottage that she had looked at was really nice. It had three bedrooms. The lower level housed the master bedroom and bathroom, and the upper level had two bedrooms with a shared bath. The pictures were gorgeous, and we decided to book it on the spot since we knew it would not last long if we waited. When we arrived, I saw that the pictures did not do the cottage justice at all. The rooms were bright and large, and the decor was really nice. I really liked how spacious everything was, as it made it so much more inviting to be there.

I was glad that it had a state of the art kitchen because even though we would eat out several times, we also wanted to have some quiet nights in where we could just enjoy being with one another. We all have such busy schedules at home that this was a rare treat to just spend entire days and evenings together, playing games, listening to music and just talking. We spent a good amount of time on the beach too, and I know that it will not be our last trip to St Ives. We already booked the same cottage for this upcoming holiday season!
