    “This was our second visit and it was disappointing compared to our first visit.”

    Fan doesn’t work in bathroom, shower in en-suite had no pressure. Changeover day for laundry missing towels for our last week. The bed was very uncomfortable with 2 sheet covers causing lumps and discomfort.

    - Nigel, September 2023

    We’re sorry to hear the stay at the apartment didn’t meet your expectations. We weren’t aware of the fan not working in the bathroom, if you had let us know, we would’ve got someone out to fix this right away (we wouldn’t want mould to grow due to condensation). We only replace the towels & linen that are in the basket during changeover day - we’ve had confirmation this did happen on changeover day and any towels in the basket were replaced accordingly. Kind Regards, The Property Owners Property Owner

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. Carbis Bay is truly a wonderful holiday location for those wanting to experience Cornwall's breathtaking coastline.
