    “Cleanliness needs to be improved-the kitchen worktop was still dirty-we had to do this ourselves-also what appeared to be blood stain which was easily visible on the bathroom door which also had to clean ourselves.”

    No washing up liquid provided-had to go out and buy some. Main bed mattress was very hard-appreciate this is personal preference but for someone who is used to firm mattresses this was still uncomfortable. The towel rails did not work independently of the heating-despite claiming this in the apartment folder and there was no way of operating the heating (despite the folder claiming there were heating controls in the bedrooms and lounge-there aren`t!)

    No washing up liquid provided-had to go out and buy some. Main bed mattress was very hard-appreciate this is personal preference but for someone who is used to firm mattresses this was still uncomfortable. The towel rails did not work independently of the heating-despite claiming this in the apartment folder and there was no way of operating the heating (despite the folder claiming there were heating controls in the bedrooms and lounge-there aren`t!) Presume these have been removed to stop people using the heating excessively & have the fuses been removed from the towel rails to stop people using these too as the switch on the wall did nothing. Just feels a bit mean spirited-never been to an apartment where have been unable to turn on the heating if needed before. The bedroom french door needs replacing-high winds while we stayed and the wind whistled through the door and the room was freezing so that we couldn`t sleep & had to move bedrooms in the middle of the night. Loved the location and it was quiet and kitchen was well equipped and apartment spacious-but having stayed at these apartments previously-this one does not live up to those because of the above issues.

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.
