  • "Fantastic accomodation."

    Very clean and well equipped. Lovely views over the sea. The beach in Carbis bay is so beautiful. Not much else there unfortunately. The climb back to the accomodation is not for the faint hearted. You have to have a fair level of fitness. We were very impressed with the train service from Carbis bay to St Ives. Always punctual and so cheap. Just £2 return. There is also a good coastal path to walk to Stives as well. St Ives was very busy. If you plan to eat Out I suggest you pre book as everywhere was super busy.

    Thank you for your time giving us feed back, we are really glad you enjoyed your stay and the views. Hopefully we will see you again in the near future. Kind Regards, the Carbis Bay Holiday Team Property Owner

  • "The apartment was a great space to holiday in."

    The living area was so spacious, comfortable and had wonderful views. The open plan meant we could enjoy cooking, chatting and watching TV all together at the same time. The bedrooms were comfortable and had good storage. The shower was lovely and the bathroom roomy enough. It was close to the beach, so we could walk down for swim in the bay, or relax on the beach, and then wander back again. The parking was ideal and on level ground. The accommodation added to a wonderful week and was better than we even expected.

    Thank you for your feedback we are glad you had a good holiday. We look forward to welcoming you back in the near future. Warmest regards, Carbis Bay Holidays Team. Property Owner

    Lovely sea view from large lounge - but does overlook the road down to Carbis Bay, so no quiet rural idyll. Both bedrooms at the rear also get a lot of road noise from early am and then all day - very busy main road to St Ives

  • "Fabulous stay, traffic noise in the bedrooms could be an issue for some."

    However, everything we needed and more. There is a lack of space in the kitchen area to store cupboard food, so not advised to do a big food shop before you go. Perfect excuse to eat out more. St Ives very easy to get to by train or walking, would recommend not to.use your car. Apartment has a great view to sit and have a coffee in the.morning and relax. Would highly recommend staying and it's great having the allocated parking space. Thank you for a lovely stay.

There is a bus stop right outside the apartment to take you to St Ives.

About the location

CARBIS BAY

St Ives 2 miles ; Hayle 3.5 miles ; Penzance 8.5 miles

Just a short drive from iconic St Ives, the seaside village of Carbis Bay is best-known for its beautiful stretch of pure white sand. With turquoise waters and sheltered conditions, the beach feels almost subtropical and is the perfect spot for a good old-fashioned day by the sea. The beach is also home to the Ocean Sports Centre, so if sunbathing is not really your thing, why not hire a kayak or SUP and get out on the water instead. Or why not treat yourself to a Spa day at the delightful hotel which overlooks the beach and has a fabulous terrace where cocktails can be enjoyed in the Cornish sunshine? Carbis Bay has a small range of local shops and restaurants as well as a fish & chip takeaway and railway branch line. The train journey from Carbis Bay into St Ives is perhaps one of the most beautiful in the country; St Ives additionally makes for a great day out, with plenty of galleries to explore. The quayside town of Hayle also isn't far and is home to activities for the all the family, including a golf and a wildlife sanctuary. The Godrevy Nature Reserve and Penwith Heritage Coast are also within easy reach from Carbis Bay, providing outdoors and watersports plans with even more activities to partake in, including coasteering and birdwatching. Carbis Bay is truly a wonderful holiday location for those wanting to experience Cornwall's breathtaking coastline.

There is a Good Housekeeping Bond of £100 for this property. Access to Penreen apartments is via a gradual ramp from the driveway. There is a carpeted flight of stairs up to the first floor apartment via 15 steps. Additional road parking close by.
