    “Eleanora was a beautiful apartment, kitted out as though it was actually our home.”

    We had absolutely everything we needed for our stay and the sea views were spectacular. The apartment was spotlessly clean, so hats off to the owners for facilities and housekeeper for cleaning everything so immaculately. Incredibly comfortable beds and linen, bath towels of excellent quality. Carbis Bay beach is just 5-10 mins walk (down quite a steep hill for those with disabilities or less able to walk - does have a car park £20 per day) which is a lovely and clean, dog free beach.

    We had absolutely everything we needed for our stay and the sea views were spectacular. The apartment was spotlessly clean, so hats off to the owners for facilities and housekeeper for cleaning everything so immaculately. Incredibly comfortable beds and linen, bath towels of excellent quality. Carbis Bay beach is just 5-10 mins walk (down quite a steep hill for those with disabilities or less able to walk - does have a car park £20 per day) which is a lovely and clean, dog free beach. St Ives a short train ride away for more choice of restaurants and beaches for a change of scenery. Again beaches seem to be no dogs allowed, which suited us as a family with young children. Watch out for the hungry sea gulls if you get fish and chips :) Harbour Cafe and Tala Thai in St Ives two great restaurants. We hope to stay again in Carbis Bay, and would definitely stay in this apartment!

    - Esme, August 2024

    Dear Esme Thank you for your wonderful and thoughtful review of Elanora! As we do not live locally, we rely heavily on our excellent housekeeper and her team to ensure that standards are maintained. In the busy summer season that can be a constant challenge. We know she will be very proud to receive your high praise, thank you! Elanora is our home from home, so we felt if it had the facilities and comforts we like, then hopefully it would also suit most of our guests. We are so pleased that you had a great time and thank you for all the useful recommendations for people visiting the area for the first time. Kind regards, Pam & Chris 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.
