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.

E. Fox"We did have a fantastic holiday- we adore the area. We dined again at La Casita, we took the train to Truro, we enjoyed a trip to the Minack theatre near Lands End, spectacular views. We walked several times the coastal path to St Ives. "
S. Harrison"Morvah was excellent. We very much like the Sea Food Cafe in St. Ives. Having walked the whole of the Cornish Coast Path, the stretch between Lelant and St. Ives is very attractive. Another lovely stretch is from Sennen round to Porthcurno. Wreck fishing on the Dolly P was very productive."
"We enjoyed our stay at Morvah and were very impressed with the high specification of the house and its location to the beach and train station. The house was beautifully presented on arrival and very clean. We in particular thought the Minack Theatre was a lovely spot and inexpensive to visit. We also went to Botallack mines for a walk - really scenic, rugged and unspoilt and was free to visit."
C. Watson"Just wanted to let you know that we had a most enjoyable time in Carbis Bay. Having a very young child we didn’t really adventure much off the beaten track but Morvah fully met our expectations in all respects, your website being very informative and fairly representing the house and location. With regard to administration matters, we found these to be efficient and straightforward."
A. LeeWe had a great time and we were really pleased with Morvah, the whole process of booking, paying and checking in to the house was very easy and straight forward. Morvah was a beautiful house with fantastic sea views. The house was decorated well, quite modern and was very clean. The amenities etc in the house were all great, the leather sofas and huge TV were very popular. There was plenty of room for 7 - enough room to be all together in the fab kitchen or to have your own space too.
S. WhittleWe had yet another fantastic stay in Morvah. As it was a winter visit we did some different things including a New Years Day walk on Hayle Sands and round the headland opposite Godrevy lighthouse. BLAS the burger place and the Gurnards Head restaurant come highly recommended along with the Sloop Inn for mulled cider and the Cornish Arms!
G. Turner"This was our second visit to Morvah and once again we were very happy with all aspects of the property and admin."
