    “This property was a real disappointment.”

    The location was great for us very close to carbis bay Beach and great for getting to st Ives. The cottage it’s self was not good unfortunately it was very dirty on arrival cleaners were sent back to sort this for us which was good but there is a terrible fish smell in the back bedroom which was not sorted for us so we had to put up with it for the whole weeks stay it’s was terrible. We were unfortunately unable to open the bedroom windows to help with the smell as we saw a rat one evening ...

    The location was great for us very close to carbis bay Beach and great for getting to st Ives. The cottage it’s self was not good unfortunately it was very dirty on arrival cleaners were sent back to sort this for us which was good but there is a terrible fish smell in the back bedroom which was not sorted for us so we had to put up with it for the whole weeks stay it’s was terrible. We were unfortunately unable to open the bedroom windows to help with the smell as we saw a rat one evening outside the bedroom so this worried us to leave the window open incase they came through the window. The wardrobe doesn’t shut properly either, the property just isn’t well maintained. We came to use the iron to find the plug had been cut off so a new one had to be delivered to the property for us. The oven was filthy needs a proper clean between guests and the freezer draws were also filthy. I suggest this property needs a real deep clean. The parking situation is terrible if you own a big car. With the property next door also parking there you just can’t get a big car in the parking bay if they return home with their car before you do. We did get a very insulting refund from the owners for all our issues but in our opinion they didn’t deal with it very well and to the standard we would expect. Carbis bay holidays were great and tried their hardest for us. It’s not good to spend every day of your holiday on a phone trying to resolve accommodation issues and reporting issues.

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.
