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 get away from it all but have 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. It also connects to St Erth and Penzance to mainline UK stations including Paddington, London.

Guest Comments

"We really enjoyed our stay at Men an Tol and it exceeded our expectations. We were so impressed with the facilities Ordinance Survey maps, books, DVD’s,  local information, Sky TV, magazines, games – everything to make the holiday complete. The welcome was excellent, so friendly and informative and the apartment was spotlessly clean. Good bus and train services meant we could leave the car and visit St Ives without the hassle of finding a parking spot. Local restaurants were excellent. Highly recommend La Casita, Becks, on the St Ives Road . If you enjoy live music and a great atmosphere then the Kettle ‘N’ Wink in St Ives is the place to go. The Balnoon Inn near Trink is worth the short drive or, in our case, cycle ride for the Cornish Knocker alone. Carbis Bay beach is very clean and much more peaceful than St Ives or other local beaches. "

"We were more than pleased with the accommodation at Men An Tol.  The apartment was very clean and comfortable.  Very much enjoyed the spa bath!  The scenery is stunning and we thoroughly enjoyed our short break. We went into St Ives for the New Year and were extremely impressed by the effort everyone had made with their costumes.  Very enjoyable. We really love Carbis Bay and hope to be returning later in the year. "

"Everything exceeded our expectations. We found the apartment was lovingly decorated and sparkling clean with sea views just to die for !  Being keen walkers, we loved the many coastal walks on offer including the walk into St.Ives, The Lizard and Lands End.  St.Michaels Mount is a 'must do' , steeped in history and beauty. Must mention Porthminster Cafe for good food.  Finally, a big thank you to yourselves for such a friendly and efficient service and look forward to returning to this beautiful part of the world real soon. "

We had a lovely stay at Men an Tol. The accommodation was equipped to a very high standard.  We walked from the apartment to St Ives one day and to Hayle on another day.  We had a lovely coffee at the Salt restaurant in Hayle and had a lovely lunch at Scarlets winery at Lelant, the tapas were delicious and the wine to accompany the meal was even better!!
