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.
"Sea View was lovely very high standard, very convenient for Tesco's. As the weather was good we spent most days at Carbis bay beach, though we did go to Mousehole and St Ives."
M. Lockett"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Carbis Bay, Sea View was of excellent quality with the cleanliness and views very good. Our 1 year old daughter loved the space in the apartment and looking out the balcony windows."
M. Easthorpe"We had a fantastic holiday. The accommodation was beyond perfect. I have a 2 year old son who felt at home from the moment we arrived, he loved the bath and enjoyed his swim each night. The view was beautiful and location ideal. We were surprised how easy it was to find our way around the local area and beyond. We enjoyed visiting the popular attractions, and I was pleased to still find places (the stone shop at the Lizard) which i had visited some 15 years previous."
S. Mann"We had a lovely stay at Sea View again, such a fabulous location. Apartment met all expectations. The Beeches as always very good, The Mermaid Fish Restaurant, at the end of the street behind the Sloop Pub - was excellent. The children always love the coastal path walk into St Ives."

"My parents have both had a truly lovely experience with the accommodation, they were both very pleased with the facilities and cleanliness and location of the property. The administration for booking this break I have found a very stress free process. Thank you for giving my parents a memorable break"
L.MyersWe had a lovely weeks holiday, the apartment was just the ticket perfect location, clean, well equipped and didnt disappoint. We enjoyed the walk from Carbis Bay to St Ives everyday along the coast path, down Wheal Margery just past the park across the road, with the two kids - beautiful views. The best beach for us is Porthgwidden, the beach cafe is lovely, good for lunch or evenings overlooking the sea. We also enjoyed the Watermill Pub in Lelant, we have dined there many times and the kids love the beer garden with swings and area for playing football.
We had a very pleasant stay in St Ives and were impressed by the standard of all aspects of the accommodation. The apartment was spotlessly clean, warm and comfortable with all the gadgets, utensils, entertainment etc one could need. The view of the sea was great and it was very quiet despite being on the main road. We have stayed in many apartments, houses and villas over the last 25 years and Sea View is one of the best.
P & T. BattenI can honestly say that we were absolutely delighted with the apartment, everything was so bright, clean and new yet it felt very comfortable and relaxing. The apartment had everything that we needed and soon felt at home. The sea views are amazing and the perfect location with Tesco being a 30 second walk away along with St Ives a short walk. Enjoyed some lovely meals in St Ives with Peppers offering excellent food at reasonable prices. We also went into St Ives for New Years and really enjoyed the street party with everyone in fancy dress!
S Courtnell"We had a lovely stay in Sea View...We particularly liked the small garden - excellent for young children and it compensated for the apartment being slightly smaller than those at Carbis Beach, though it still had the fantastic sea views. We will definitely book here again."
E. Powers, W. Midlands"When we arrived we just fell in love with the place. The location is perfect. The views are wonderful...Sea View itself is a very spacious flat with every modern convenience known to man. The seats and sofas are very comfortable, as are the beds. The kitchen (not that we cooked much) had everything that one would have at home."
