"Apartment was spotless. Kitchen was lovely everything you needed. Bedroom comfortable and cosy._Great position just behind the station and public footpath down to the beach.__Building work going on next door, trucks coming and going, a little loud sometimes but didn't spoil holiday as mostly out all day.__Would return to this apartment."

"The apartment was spotlessly clean and well appointed. It is in a very convenient location being close to Carbis Bay beach and the coastal path to St Ives one way and Hayle the other way. The train offers transport both ways too at a very reasonable cost and provides excellent service with trains running every half hour. The apartment had everything we needed. It was light an airy with views of the coast. Riveria apartments are about 35 years old but the accommodation had recently been modernised and had parking which is a real bonus."
Lizzie Cook
"We loved Gwinear apartment. It is in a good location with a great view. It was spotlessly clean and very well stocked. The beds and pillows are very comfortable and the white towels lovely and fluffy. Also, the welcome gifts were much appreciated. Carbis Bay and St Ives are beautiful and we loved Cornwall. It is only a short walk from the apartment to the train station to get a train into St Ives and only costs £1 each."

"We have had a brilliant holiday in Gwinear Carbis Bay with our two grandsons Jack and Oscar. The superb beach is a short walk away and the sea is an amazing turquoise colour.
The accommodation was first class and could not be faulted, with sea views of St Ives to the west and Lelant to the east. Close to the railway station with regular trains to St Ives along the picturesque coastline."

It was spotless upon arrival and we liked the little touches like cling film, foil, tea, coffee etc in the kitchen, we will definitely return to the flat and book it again in the near future. We really loved our stay at Gwinear."
