A superb base for our week discovering West Cornwall. The views from the apartement are outstanding, even better than the photos suggest, and the covered terrace is a great place to relax and soak in the view. The living room and spacious light-filled master bedroom are both nice, second bedroom is really small. Well-equipped throughout, particularly the kitchen, with a range cooker, and all the pots and pans necessary for cooking (note there are no restaurants in easy walking distance). All equipment is modern and in good working order, better than usually found in rental accomodation these days. Shame there was not a better coffee making machine.Only real negative is the size of the beds, both the singles and the small double seemed undersized. Otherwise, no complaints.
Delightful cottage with stunning views of Carbis Bay and the propertyâs own beautiful gardens. Step onto the coastal path from the garden access and walk to the beach in ten. Excellent amenities with super eat in kitchen, laundry, spacious living room and pretty bedrooms. We enjoyed many meals on the balcony, listening to the breaking ocean waves. Wifi and quick walking access to Tesco. Take the footpath to St Ives and beyond along the stunning coastal path.No car needed to enjoy this property (we walked from Carbis rail), however parking is available anyway.
Delightful cottage - well equipped and in an excellent location . Beautiful panoramic views over Carbis Bay , private entrance onto beautiful, woodland trail to Carbis Bay ( taking approximately 20 minutes to beach)
Beautiful comfortable master bedroom - with access to balcony . Wonderful cottage .
A quiet, relaxing place to stay with a fabulous view over Carbis Bay. Be prepared for the challenging up and downs of the paths at first⊠however after a few days it was a real pleasure to walk into St Ives and back and Carbis Bay and back. Would stay again.
Cute cottage style apartment with stunning views of the coast. We loved the direct access to the coastal footpath for daily outings. The apartment was charming and spacious: well equipped eat-in kitchen, dishwasher, laundry washer, large living room with balcony access, comfortable main bedroom with views and a reading nook, and a cosy second room with two singles.
The apartment had been very nicely cleaned for us on arrival and the appliances and WIFI worked well. The host was prompt and helpful in replying to our messages.
Nice additions would be to make available a few extra supplies such as shampoo, tissues, and to top up soap dispensers. This is perhaps more noted by international guests who can't carry liquids through security and don't wish to purchase such items only to dispose of them after a week. That said, the cottage is extremely convenient to a Tesco superstore (3 minute walk).
We avoided the use of the shower & bath in the main bathroom due to concerns raised by the host on a tendancy for an alarm to sound if water splashes onto the floor. This wasn't a problem for our family as we simply used the ensuite shower. However, it could be more of a nuissance for other guests who prefer separate bathrooms. If there is a fix, that would be welcome.
We had a very lovely stay and would definitely recommend it to family and friends.
Absolutly amazing place to stay, beautiful views lovely walks to beaches.
The apartment is very clean and comfortable to stay in.
This was our second time staying here and can highly recomend .
We had a wonderful week staying in this apartment. A great location for exploring this corner of Cornwall and easy access to St Ives, without the challenge of finding somewhere to park!
The views were unbeatable ! We loved having breakfast on the balcony or sitting in the garden, watching the waves rolling in. SO very relaxing :)
The flat itself has everything you need and very spacious. Very well equipped and with Tesco just up the road, self catering is very easy.
Big thanks to Susie who was very helpful and brilliant at replying to messages/ questions we had. That was much appreciated.
We would love to return here and would recommend 100%!
We stayed for a week at this Edwardian flat situated high above Carbis Bay and near the coastal path. We woke up to coastal views from the master bedroom and I often had my coffee looking out to the sea. The property has a nice balcony with grand views up the coastline. If you like historical properties you'll like this place. The kitchen is well equipped and the listing description is accurrate. I would highly recommend this place.
I loved the view from the balcony, it was so peaceful sitting there drawing and painting. The walk along the coastal path into St Ives is about 15 minutes, with trees, lovely houses to look at, and views the whole way. Would definitely go back.
Thank you
Very out dated needs a lot of work but the views made up for that, not to say you shouldnât spend money on it because compared to the property next door it very poor inside needs new sofas and bed bathrooms need updating
This is the second year we have stayed in this flat and we love it. The view over the bay is second to none and we love to sit on the covered balcony with a glass of wine and just watch the world go by.
The flat is located between Carbis Bay and St Ives and it is a relatively short and lovely downhill walk into St Ives for the coffee shops and restaurants, or the other way down to the beach. It should be noted that the walk down is much easier than coming back up, so anyone with mobility problems should beware. However there is a dedicated parking space up a few steps from the front door and this is very convenient for getting out to explore the district and coming back at the end of the day. We never had any problems with the space being occupied by someone else.
There is a medium sized Tesco supermarket within 5 minutes by car and this is well stocked and has a Costa coffee shop. There are other shops in Hayle, again a short drive away.
The flat is well equipped with all you need for the stay and is clean and comfortable. You need to take toilet rolls, but tablets are provided for the dishwasher and washing machine. We sleep well in the lovely bright main bedroom and although we haven't cooked that many meals everything you need is there. The second bedroom is small with just room for the two single beds.
Communication with the owner has been very good and she sends reminders for bin days and so on. She responds very quickly to any query.
Overall, good value for money
We could not think of a better place to stay. Carbis Bay is beautiful and St. Ives in good and pretty walking distance (15-20 minutes). The appartment is very quiet, sitting on the balcony is very relaxing.
Eine Woche zum GenieĂen. Guter Standort fĂŒr AktivitĂ€ten in unmittelbarer NĂ€he und der Umgebung. Aussicht vom Balkon und aus dem Bett im Schlafzimmer kaum zu ĂŒberbieten.
Wohnung sauber, Ansprechpartner immer erreichbar. Infos gut und hilfreich.
We had the most amazing week in Carbis Bay, made all the better by a week of blue skies and hot (for May) sun.
The apartment is in a great location with clear views over Carbis Bay and out towards Godrevy Lighthouse. It was clean and tidy when we arrived with a well stocked kitchen which felt more akin to a second home being rented out than a commercial rental property.
Due to its location above the western end of Carbis Bay, it was a downhill walk via the Southwest Coastal Path (although paved, it is steep in places) to either St Ives (for a mooch around the shops or popping into a restaurant or two) or Carbis Bay Beach for a day messing around in the sea.
We love this area and property and were visiting regularly but we now have grandchildren and busy lives so able to let the apartment for others to enjoy.
Our first sightings of the coast line here were of huge areas of golden beaches glimpsed through the trees as we wondered down to the sea shore. The tide was out and we instantly fell in love with the scenery.
