    “Very good location, comfortable throughout and well equipped kitchen.”

    The balcony with seating & table is a real asset. The kitchen had a range of electrical appliances, and was well stocked with glasses and crockery. A few extra items would also be useful e.g. cafetiere, bottle-opener, knife-sharpener, metal baking trays (pyrex is versatile but does not roast as well). The property owner was very helpful during our stay. On our request they delivered extra linen (as we were there for a 2 weeks).

The property

Carbis Bay, Surf and Sand is in a prime location, perched over one of Cornwall's most breathtaking bays and its blue flag-winning beach. With magnificent panoramic sea views across St. Ives Bay from most rooms, including the beachfront balcony, this elegant second-floor apartment, which sleeps four people, is perfect for a small family or couple. Sink back into one of the plush two-seater cream Italian leather sofas and take in the exquisitely decorated and superbly equipped space. You could even spy dolphins off in the distance. Instead, why not benefit from the wonderful entertainment bundle offered by the whole Sky package, which includes Movies, Sports, and BT Sport. The dining space, which is a component of the open-plan living area and is ideally situated next to the kitchen archway, makes it possible for visitors to mingle with people who are occupied with cooking. For dining with a view, a huge oak dining table and six seats provide the perfect setting. Discover a classic rear kitchen that is bright, roomy, and completely furnished with everything you could possibly need while on holiday. When the stars come out, retire to the master bedroom with an en suite bathroom, which has breath-taking views that are sure to leave you speechless, or a beautifully decorated twin. On the Juliette balcony, sip your morning coffee while unwinding to the sound of the waves. This location provides access to the South West Coast Path, where you can travel by foot to St. Ives. Alternatively, for a more leisurely trip, board the scenic train that passes by; it even stops at the charming Cornish fishing community and links to Cornwall's main line. If you're in St. Ives, you can explore a stunning collection of modern art at the Tate St. Ives or try your hand at a variety of water sports from the well-known Porthmeor Beach. History buffs might prefer to spend the day at the Saint Ives Museum, while foodies are sure to enjoy the regional specialties offered at the area's restaurants. Explore Seal Island, the ideal location to see a variety of wildlife and birds, or travel to Land's End, undoubtedly one of this region's most famous monuments, where you can take in stunning coastal vistas. Find out more about Paradise Park, Junglebarn, Mutton Cove, and the spectacular Lost Gardens of Heligan as you go further afield. Regardless of how you choose to spend your days, do it from the breath-taking Surf and Sand base.

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.

The Good Housekeeping Bond for this property is £150.
