Description

Settled in the popular village of Carbis Bay, Oystercatcher House makes a fabulous choice for a break to Carbis Bay in Cornwall.

Near the beach and a train station, this home is perfect for friends or couples looking for a seaside getaway.

This home’s coastal location has influenced the décor, enjoying a bright and airy feel throughout with lovely tones and artwork complementing the spaces.

Inside, a living/dining room with seating for six and a gas fire offers a space to unwind after exploring the area, while the snug provides a quaint space to relax alone when needed.

From here, the kitchen offers everything you could need to whip up delicious meals for your whole group, finished off with a handy utility for your laundry after a day at the beach.

When it’s time to sleep, three bedrooms each with their own en-suites rooms, and the master with two armchairs and a coffee table where you can soak up the panoramic sea views out towards Godrevy and the island in St Ives, make the ideal place to catch your rest and freshen up before another adventurous day.

Outside, two gardens are available for you to make the most of any sunny weather, with furniture so you can dine al fresco!

If you fancy a break from cooking, a wealth of restaurants are available to choose from, such as La Casita, for delicious Spanish cuisine, before finishing the evening with a stroll along Carbis Bay beach.

Away from the village, you can make your way to St Ives for a spot of culture and a visit to the Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden and Tate St Ives.

The area is also home to the National Trust’s Trengwainton Garden and Cudden Point for a lovely afternoon out.

Further afield, head to Fisherman's Wharf, before following the coastline up to Gillick Rock and finishing up at Godrevy Lighthouse.

You will not be left short for activities in the area with cycling, watersports, surfing and fishing opportunities available from the doorstop, as well as fishing, golf and pony trekking/horse riding all within easy reach.

Whatever your style of adventure, make Oystercatcher House your base.

Oystercatcher house is a wonderful place to stay in a fabulous location.

Having stayed in a number of holiday cottages in various locations this is up there with the best. From the moment we walked through the door we felt comfortable and at home (with 2 neurodivergent children this is no mean feat!). The house is clean, tidy and has everything you could need (one small gripe was only being provided with one bin bag, for all waste and recycling, as a family of four this was not enough). The park opposite was great for keeping the kids entertained and burning off any remaining energy. Was brilliant to be able to walk to the beach at Carbis Bay, which was a great place to spend the day, and we went back several times. We also took the train to St Ives which was quick, cheap, and easy. Having driven down from Manchester it was nice not to have to use the car all the time. The kids are already asking when we can go back, and we would certainly book again.

The perfect accommodation for a family holiday.

Easy access to the buses, train, supermarket and chip shop all within walking distance. My elderly mother was surprised how steep the road to Carbis Bay beach was, the walk back up was very difficult.

Lack of anywhere to put toiletries in all three bedrooms was very disappointing, a shelf, a cabinet just somewhere.

The sofas are in very poor condition and need replacing
