In my 10 years of teaching and multiple school trips Cohort is honestly the best educational accommodation I have been to. The facilities are perfect. It is within easy walking distance to the centre of St Ives and the beach, which makes planning the activities really easy with no need for public transport. What stands out though is the staff; they are always so accommodating, kind, helpful and friendly.

We will continue to come back for as long as we can!
