A tranquil apartment elevated above Carbis Bay, this family-friendly abode is an excellent choice for a traditional seaside break with your party of four. Famed for its gentle waters and golden sand, the nearby beach is a haven for sandcastle building, shoreline games and swimming. The South West Coast Path promises miles of dramatic scenery on your doorstep, and you’ll be able to discover St Ives with ease thanks to the nearby train station 0.5 miles away. Take to the cobbled streets and whet your appetite with culinary delights, absorb the artistic flair of quirky art galleries, or simply settle down and enjoy the atmosphere. When the little ones grow restless, there’s a museum, subtropical gardens and even a nearby theatre to enjoy too, all within 1 mile.

Situated on the first floor of a quiet complex, your welcoming abode is simply presented with a homely twist. You’ll find cosy recliners, a deep sofa and a fully equipped kitchen area fit for whipping up a feast. Adjoining the lounge/diner, the kitchen has everything you need to prepare your meals before settling down at the table together. Switch on the TV and watch a DVD together, play your favourite tunes on the Bluetooth speaker or simply marvel at the breathtaking views. The double bedroom is a sanctuary with an en-suite shower room, and the delightful twin room is suitable for children and adults alike. Completing the property is a family bathroom with a shower over the bath, ideal for a long soak after a busy day.

Outside, the shared garden is mainly laid to lawn with a sunny terrace that’s perfect for relaxing.

Fantastic view, very comfortable, kitchen fully equipped, very useful having washing machine and dishwasher. Steep walk down the road to the beach but well worth it. Great beach for sandcastles!

Lovely apartment, comfortable and well equipped, cracking view and right next to the coast path and less than 5 minute walk to the train station. Under cover parking was a great bonus - it kept the seagulls at bay!
