• "Golva was a fantastic base for our holiday."

  It was spotlessly clean and equipped with everything we would need for our stay and more - the binoculars were a lovely addition and my daughters loved to use them to watch the boats in the bay. We would definitely stay again if we are ever back in Cornwall.

  Thank you for your feedback. We look forward to welcoming you back again in the near future. Warm regards, Carbis Bay Holidays Team. Property Owner

• "We were very impressed with the quality of the apartment which was superbly equipped and spotlessly clean."

  A stunning sea view with good access to the beach. The only thing my partner struggled with was the king size mattress which was very soft as he suffers from back pain. Also the good size, easily accessible parking space was a bonus.

  Thank you for your feedback we are glad you had a good holiday. We hope to see you again soon. Kind regards, Carbis Bay Holiday team. Property Owner

• "Excellent flat in a great location."

  Proximity to the coast path and railway station make it easy to visit St Ives and many places in Cornwall. Flat is very well equipped and the view is fabulous. Definitely the best stay we have had in Cornwall.

• "Perfect apartment."

  The views of St Ives and Godrevy are stunning. The location is excellent, with the gorgeous Carbis Bay beach very close by. It is next to the train station which gives you a 5 min journey into St Ives, although we also loved the scenic walk. This apartment is very clean and well-equipped - it has everything you need and more. We greatly appreciated the extremely comfortable bed! We will be back as soon as we can. Thank you

• "We felt as if we had hit the jackpot having this place for our first-time, two-week stay in Cornwall."

  The accommodation was immaculate. The views were outstanding - exactly as the Cornish scenery is imagined to be, especially for the first-time visitor! There was also the most lovely walk to St Ives which we did on several occasions. Carbis Bay is also in a very good area for exploring the west of Cornwall in general. The only downside was that because the kitchen seemed to have every utensil and gadget going, all the cupboards were already 'occupied' and there was very little place to store any food we had bought. Really loved it here though, and this would be our first place to try for availability when (and not if) we come back to Cornwall.

  Thank you for taking the time to give us feedback we are pleased you enjoyed your stay. We hope to see you again in the near future. Kindest regards, Carbis Bay Holidays Team. Property Owner

• "Having visited Golva some 8 years or so ago we were pleasantly surprised at the still pristine presentation of the property."

  Clean, comfortable, warm and everything needed for a good stay. a few downsides compared to our last visit: no 'meet and greet' on arrival; no welcoming cream tea; broadband performance reminiscent of the 1990s. If, like our last visit, I had been visiting to work I would have had to seek alternative accommodation on day 2. I know broadband is not a guaranteed offering but 2Mb/s download speeds are just not credible in this day and age.

  An option of a soft or firmer pillow would be beneficial to ensure a good nights sleep. Incredibly well-equipped and maintained. Thank you for your attention to detail; greatly appreciated and made for a fabulous stay!

• "Fabulous location with amazing views, and easy access to Carbis Bay train station to St Ives."

  Cleanliness 5*. The apartment felt like a home from home straight away! Apartment equipped with everything you would need, even two hairdryers! The only downside for us tech users was the slow broadband speed, obviously super fast fibre hasn’t hit Cornwall yet! Carbis Bay beach is stunning with good facilities, the only down side is the steep walk back up the hill but you are in Cornwall, and the views never disappoint! Wonderful location to explore from whether driving or walking, and then relax at the apartment after an exhausting day or enjoy a train journey into St Ives for the relaxed night life around the harbour!

  This is our 2nd stay at Golva and superb as always, great facilities and beautiful views. Looking at next years prices for the same duration we can see your prices have increased highly therefore with this in mind and our bad experience at Carbis beach restaurant this year it feels like Carbis Bay is pricing itself out of the market for some which is a shame as so beautiful.

  It was no surprise that Golva delivered on comfort, convenient location, excellent quality furnishings and view. It was a delight to come "home" to a warm place after getting cold and wet on our coastal walks. All appliances are easy to use and it was a luxury to have SKY TV to watch some films and sport !!

• ""We had a great holiday and the Golva Apartment was lovely, and we would certainly like to return sometime."

  We can highly recommend two of the restaurants we visited on holiday, one was the Seafood Cafe in St Ives where we enjoyed the fish menu, also the sweet was to die for; the other one was Becks fish restaurant in Carbis again we had fish and everything was cooked to perfection. We also visited numerous tearooms where we enjoyed excellent cups of coffee and cakes. The one pub meal we had was at the Union Pub, which was very good and had a friendly atmosphere. " P. Vincent "Golva was spotless, and really had the wow factor when we first arrived. Beautiful location and the seaview was gorgeous. Every room was well set out spotlessly clean and well equipt with everything we needed. The restaurants we went to was The Hub and the Ccean Grill in St Ives. We also went to the Lifeboat pub for drinks after. The beach was lovely and clean and when the sun was shining you could easily mistake that you was in a Mediterranean resort. Beautiful." J. Faraway

• ""What a fabulous holiday we had , Golva exceeded our expectations and the view was really awesome, we visited the Minack and thoughtfully the sun came out and afforded us a spectacular day out, we also visited the beach and found it to be of excellent quality and safe to bath."

  The film set for Doc Martin at St Isaac was worth the visit. The local transport to St Ives on the single track railway was easy and affordable, and the numerous cafes and restaurants particularly along the harbour front were excellent." F. Powell

  TestimonialMar 2015

• ""We had a wonderful time at Golva, Carbis Bay last week, the weather was amazing, the scenery breathtaking and the apartment was excellent."

  The facilities were excellent, gorgeous bedding and towels, everything was catered for. We regularly used the Carbis Bay train link in both directions and the coast path from Carbis to St Ives was also regularly walked, it has to be walked for the fabulous views. We visited Eden and Trevarno gardens and took wonderful photographs, we spent the day on Carbis Beach on Thursday and enjoyed sandcastles and ice-creams. I would have no hesitation in recommending the apartment to others. Thank you Carbis Bay Holidays for a fantastic service, a great holiday when our family really needed it." K Slade

  The apartment exceeded our expectations. The telescope was great and increased our enjoyment of the sea views and the TV and WI entertainment along with videos, games and books were great for the out of season visit.
