Mount Douglas Cottages

Mount Douglas Cottages are a wonderful pairing of rural retreats nestled on a small, traditional farm in Carbis Bay, a seaside village in Cornwall. Both homes enjoy a balcony, countryside views, and a short stroll to a sandy beach, making it the perfect getaway for family and friends. Step beyond your doorstep and into a world of discovery. From your base in Carbis Bay, Cornwall’s most captivating treasures are just moments away. Begin your adventure with a visit to the iconic St Michael’s Mount, a tidal island steeped in legend.

Or explore the RSPB Marazion Marsh, a quaint wetland sanctuary teeming with birdlife, especially in the winter months. Adventure seekers can take to the water with St Ives Boat Trips, choose a thrilling Fast Rib Ride, rent a boat, or paddle out on a kayak or SUP to explore the coastline from a new perspective. Closer to home, enjoy the charm of the local park, pick up essentials at the local shop, or hop on public transport to explore the wider region with ease.

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 (paddle board) 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 away and is home to activities for all the family, including golf and a wildlife sanctuary. The Godrevy Nature Reserve and Penwith Heritage Coast are also within easy reach from Carbis Bay, providing outdoor 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.
