“We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Chapel View which, for us, was the perfect base for a fabulous week in Cornwall.”
The property was clean, spacious, well equipped and had the most amazing views out over Carbis Bay and towards St Ives. I don't think that the location could have been any better; short walk to the beach, supermarket nearby, easy road access, pub/bar/restaurants walking distance. It was also a real bonus to be able to walk 2 mins to the train station and pick up a train to/from St Ives.
We had one issue when we stayed when the latch on a bathroom door seized meaning the door couldn't be opened. However the owners/management company dealt with this issue quickly and efficiently despite it being a bank holiday Monday.
Our only constructive feedback would be from a purely practical perspective on elements such as enough dishwasher tablets for the week, more tea mugs, plates/bowls of a better shape/size to fit in the dishwasher.
However, these are very minor points that didn't affect what was a fabulous week in Cornwall.
Thank you very much for you comment and we are so pleased to hear you thoroughly enjoyed your stay at Chapel View. Thank you also for your feedback regarding the dishwasher we will pass this on to the property owners for their consideration. We look forward to the opportunity to welcome you back again in the future. Kind regards, The Carbis Bay Holidays Team.

About the location
CARBIS BAY
St Ives 2 miles ; Hayle 3.5 miles ; Penzance 8.5 miles
Just a short drive from iconic St Ives, the seaside village of Carbis Bay is best-known for its beautiful stretch of pure white sand. With turquoise waters and sheltered conditions, the beach feels almost subtropical and is the perfect spot for a good old-fashioned day by the sea. The beach is also home to the Ocean Sports Centre, so if sunbathing is not really your thing, why not hire a kayak or SUP and get out on the water instead. Or why not treat yourself to a Spa day at the delightful hotel which overlooks the beach and has a fabulous terrace where cocktails can be enjoyed in the Cornish sunshine? Carbis Bay has a small range of local shops and restaurants as well as a fish & chip takeaway and railway branch line. The train journey from Carbis Bay into St Ives is perhaps one of the most beautiful in the country; St Ives additionally makes for a great day out, with plenty of galleries to explore. The quayside town of Hayle also isn't far and is home to activities for the all the family, including a golf and a wildlife sanctuary. The Godrevy Nature Reserve and Penwith Heritage Coast are also within easy reach from Carbis Bay, providing outdoors and watersports plans with even more activities to partake in, including coasteering and birdwatching.
