“The view from the balcony was outstanding & the appointment was easy accessible for the train.”

The only drawback was the shower needs to be unblocked due to the water taking time to go down. Apart from that our stay was a delight

Dear Mr Garratt, Firstly, we would like to thank you for taking the time to submit your feedback.

We sincerely hope you enjoyed your stay and hope to invite you back in the future. Kind Regards, Owner Relations Team, Carbis Bay Holidays Property Owner

“A beautiful apartment with everything that you need.”

And wow - that view was wonderful to wake up to every morning. A couple of little tweaks are that it is probably time for a new mattress and the laminate flooring isn't very well laid down as it moves slightly. Oh and could we have an elevator up from the beach as the walk is so steep, lol!!

“"This was our second time in Carbis Bay.”

There is something special about this part of Cornwall. We are in our 60s but feel full of energy when we are here. So peaceful calm and clean air. We still have so much to see and do so we will be back next year. Our accommodation is excellent and the views are incredible."

“"We greatly enjoyed our stay in Harbour View.”

The apartment is spacious with an excellent modern decor. It was immaculately presented for our arrival and everything functioned really well throughout our stay. The location worked perfectly for us - we could walk down to the beach in just a few minutes and access to the coast path in both directions was also easy and quick. And the view is to die for. The beach immediately below you and a perfect outlook right over and into St Ives harbour. We never tired of it. Covered parking was good too - no seagull poo to clean off the car! We loved this apartment and would readily return to it."

About the location

CARBIS BAY

St Ives 2 miles ; Hayle 3.5 miles ; Penzance 8.5 miles

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.
