What You Can Expect From Us And How We See Ourselves
Well this is the section where our advertising could make or break us but here goes.
We see ourselves as a more traditional style guest house which is important to us as we wanted to work with the period of the property which is Edwardian and was built in 1906. A touch of Edwardian has been added here and there, so we are not modern / funky or contemporary and do not choose or try to be. By saying this Andy and I are far from old fashioned in our ways and attitude and we are very proud and happy with the atmosphere that we have created here at White Waves.
We are very much part of the St Ives community where Andy was born and feel this reflects in our attitude / pride and support of St Ives and it's community.
Our recommendations of where to eat and places to see will reflect our being part of St Ives and its community.
So we like to think that staying with us will help give you a taste of the real St Ives and its people.

Information about St Ives
St Ives Has To Stay Like This
Why do you come to St Ives? You come for it's quaint feel. That feeling of times past and to stroll along the harbour and it's cobbled street to soak up the feeling of community and amble around the little individual shops owned by local people. Something that is slowly disappearing from many of our UK towns now.
This is what makes St Ives special and why so many of you want to visit.
We feel passionate about keeping St Ives like this and try and support local businesses and shops when sourcing ingredients for your breakfasts as much as possible.
These local business we feel supply much higher quality and tastier produce for you to eat and we are very proud of this and would not have it any other way but this does cost us more and ask you to consider this and our commitment to keeping St Ives the way it is when you are comparing us with others.
When staying with us you can be happy in the thought that you too are doing your bit in keeping St Ives just the way it is.
