Fabulous week

This is a truely special place to stay , nestled in the hill too if Carbis bay it boasts a FANTASTIC view of the sea from every bedroom. The access to the beach is only a 5 min walk but a very steep one so good shoes recommended ! The house was well appointed although I do recommend doing a food shop before you arrive as once you arrive you won’t want to leave !! We all enjoyed our stay , thankyou

A fabulous stay in an gorgeous house!

We stayed at this wonderful house for February half term, enjoying winter walks on the beach and even the occasional sea swim. The house is spacious, comfortable, and equipped with everything you need to relax and unwind. The hot tub is fantastic—perfect for soaking while watching the sunset and listening to the waves. Carbis Bay beach is just a 10-minute walk away, and the train into St Ives is even closer. All in all, a brilliant stay—we’ll definitely be returning!

Fantastic house in a prime location

We loved our time in this beautiful house. It was perfectly set up for parents, grandparents and 3 children, with enough space for us all to feel relaxed and also enough space at the kitchen table for us to enjoy meals together. The hot tub was a wonderful luxury, but the ping pong table was an added surprise that kept the children happy for much of their free time in the week. The hill down to the becah and train station was a challenge at times, but definitely worth it! Tescos is literally round the corner by carand the 3 minute joirney into St Ives on the train was a quick and coat-effwcrive way of gwtting to the town withiiut the hassle of deiving down those narrow streeta and finding somewhwre to park. Eil and Lisa were greeat hoats and all in all, we had a brillinat time!

Great space and beautiful location

We had a great stay at this property for two weeks in September. The house is wonderful and spacious - which is hard to find in the area! The views especially are beautiful. Location is fantastic, just 10 minutes down to the beach with lots of amenities which are part of the carbis bay estate. The hill is steep but as long as you take it steady it’s very manageable. We managed with two small children, a pram and all the beach gear! Lisa the host was fantastic, super responsive and resolved any issues we had immediately! In our opinion there are a few areas of the house that are in need of a little TLC and there were some little touches missing for an accomodation type of this level, but nothing that would stop us from returning in the future

Plenty of off street parking and just a ten minutes walk to Carbis Bay Beach and train station. Hosts were great and replied to all queries promptly. Will hopefully be coming back.

Perfect place and location

This property has been finished to the highest standards, with all rooms incredibly well catered with all that is needed for a luxurious, relaxing stay. The bedrooms were spacious, comfy and all equipped with large TVs (something the kids loved in their own room!). The open plan kitchen diner was the perfect family space, and the hot tub was a daily fixture offering true pampering! We could not fault this place and will not hesitate to book again. Wonderful hosts who were responsive, accommodating and very in tune with what a good holiday home should be like!

Fantastic house in a beautiful place

We loved our stay here. The house was wonderful and had everything you could possibly need. Very spacious and super comfortable with a stunning view of the bay from the rear. About 10 minutes walk to the beach and about the same to the local supermarket the location is ideal. Would definitely revisit if it was available.

Amazing House

The house never disappoints. We stayed here for our wedding at The Carbis Bay Hotel. Having previously stayed here it was better than we remember, so much space, parking for multiple cars, perfect location, all the facilities you need and the views over carbis bay are simply spectacular. Especially from the hottub. The hosts Neil and Lisa are fantastic, communication was excellent. Thank you for having us, will definately return. Paul, Emma and Evelyn

Spectacular Location

Great stay. Property is first class, every detail thought through. Fantastic view of the bay - relaxing enough in itself - even better when the sun shines! Be warned - geography makes it all a bit steep, yet manageable walk to (more so from..) the beach! Loved it

Wonderful

Lovely, modern, bright and airy property with all mod cons. Very comfortable beds. Hot tub was a great bonus in the evening, soaking our tired legs after some very steep walks. Great location being only 20mins walk into St.Ives and a 10min walk to the beautiful Carbis Bay beach. We have stayed in Carbis Bay on many occasions and this property is one of the best we have stayed in. Would thoroughly recommend.

Perfect

We were looking for somewhere beautiful to rest and enjoy, it was certainly that, and that view… wow! The house is absolutely perfect ( if you need it, it exists, so well thought through) for a stay with teenagers it was just perfect, plenty of their own space then we could come together for meals with a large central table, and the best equipped kitchen I have ever come across! The hot tub is a perfect (well maintained) place to relax, and again to enjoy “that view “ We played board games as a family, had table tennis tournaments and even had time to read a book on the Sun lounger. The beach is beautiful ( if you’re going, spend the day) the hill back up is not for the faint hearted, but the beach has everything you may need (toilets, pizza, deck chairs to rent, body boards, surfboards and kayaks and so get your steps in… it’s worth it. I can’t praise this holiday enough, it really was perfect 😍
