Carbis Bay

With its golden sands and turquoise sea, Carbis Bay is recognised as one of the most beautiful bays in the world.  It is often selected as the perfect base for those wanting to relax and getaway from it all but with the convenience of being just minutes away from the hustle and bustle of St. Ives.  With its Blue Flag accredited beach, Carbis Bay is a popular choice for a luxury self-catering holiday with many of our special escapes boasting dramatic sea views. The coastal railway links St Ives to Penzance and is perhaps one of the most scenic rail journeys in the UK.  The rail journey from Carbis Bay to St Ives takes about 4 minutes.

Guest Comments

"Infinity was superb, very spacious and lovely and clean. A great place to return to after enjoyable days out to St Michaels Mount, Eden Project and Padstowe. Enjoyable meals out included The Ocean Grill, The Italian and the Cafe at Porthgwidden Beach. A big thank you for the welcome pack and for introducing us to the company food4myholiday and allowing them to deliver and unpack our food in advance of our arrival - a wonderful treat after a long car journey. Thanks again to everyone at Carbis Bay Holidays and a special thank you to the owner of Infinity for helping to make it a very special holiday. We look forward to our next holiday in St Ives."
K. Hartley

"The apartment was very spacious, finished to a high spec., clean and well-appointed with all the equipment we needed.  We chose Carbis Bay so that we could get into St. Ives during the day and in the evenings without having to take the car.  The rail service was excellent and the station was just down the road. Also the walk into St. Ives was not too far and very picturesque.  The best restaurants that we went to were Porthminster Beach Cafe and Harbour Fish & Chips.We enjoyed walking the coastal path around Falmouth and Porthcurno and used our golf voucher for an excellent round at Tehidy Park. "

I. Machin

"Infinity, location - great, administration - good clear instructions in the folder, and very straightforward to book the holiday, cleanliness - good, view from the apartment was fantastic. We had a great week at Carbis Bay, recommendations for eating out - Blas (visited twice!), Porthminster Beach Cafe (go early evening and enjoy the fantastic sunset), Alba, Moomaid ice cream parlour, Gurnard's Head, National Trust tea room at St Michaels Mount did a lovely cornish cream tea, Lifeboat Fish and Chips at Coverack. Visited St Michaels Mount - great for kids as they had a garden quiz and a different one for the house. National Maritime museum was great too, went via the park and float, and went crabbing on their pontoon too, which was fun. "

"We had a great holiday staying in Infinity.  It was everything we hoped for, with every comfort.  Local pubs were great, especially The Badger Arms and the Waterwheel. Train service into St. Ives very welcome, saved searching for parking.  Altogether a great holiday, thankyou."
J. Hemmings

"The view was splendid from Infinity and that the location was perfect, the comfort, the space and the excellent state of the appartment. electro equipment in the kitchen, plenty of storing place like wardrobes, very clean state of the appartment and of the surrounding area / parking etc. We found the path from Sennen to Land's end and beyond to the Nanjizal beach is a must, All the coast is so nice,  we went to Eden Project and  Mousehole. The best place for us was the Hub in St-Ives serving superb Fish and Chips, nicely presented and of excellent quality"

"Excellent apartment, high standard of cleanliness, high standard of furnishing would definately return."

K. Anderson

"I think my wife summed it up best in her opening line as she wrote in your guestbook - "As Buzz Lightyear said to Infinity and beyond !" Our week long break was simply fantastic, the weather was kind to us so we didn't need to go far. The location is superb with all required amenities close by, the beach is spectacular. The standard of accommodation was exceptional, as a family we typically holiday 3 times a year and Infinity was by some length the best apartment that we've stayed in for a long time. I would heartily recommend Firehouse Bar & Grill in to all future guests for great food and friendly atmosphere."

C. Jones

"We had a fabulous time at Infinity . What a fantastic apartment which exceeded our expectations and amazing sea views. The apartment was very clean, what a wonderful holiday with perfect weather . Many thanks and we would definently book again."

T. Brickley

"Just to let you know we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Infinity, it was a great standard of accommodation, with all that we needed. Great space and very clean with showers that you can get wet in and baths that fill in nanoseconds (how do you get a water supply like that?) And WiFi which tends to get forgotten in lots of places, but has become a bit of a necessity."

D. Temple

"We very much enjoyed our stay at "Infinity" which we extended for a further 3 days. The apartment was well equiped and furnished and the rear sunny terrace was a bonus. We would certainly recommend La Casita restaurant, not only for the food and service but also for the very helpful attitude of the manager/owner. Also the Tinners Arms at Zennor- good beer & crab sandwiches."

J. & P. Neild
"I would just like to say what a fantastic holiday we had at Infinity in Carbis Bay, everything exceeded our expectations with Carbis Bay Holidays. We read up all the walks and attractions you had left for us and managed to fit in most of them over our fortnight! "
C. & R. Rolfe

Infinity was absolutely brilliant. The view was awesome and forever changing. The apartment was finished to a very high standard. It was great to have a power shower and a really high spec cooker. There's nothing worse for me than not being able to cook a decent meal or have a really good shower. The bed was really clean and comfortable and the quality of the bedding was also very high. We also thought the security was very good and we were not worried about leaving any thing of value when we went out. We both really enjoyed our stay and would come back in the future as we visit St Ives and the surrounding area every year. I can honestly say we couldn't fault anything we were really pleased with everything and will definitely recommend it to everyone.
