Make memories in a superb property bathed in the famous light of West Cornwall. This sumptuous, third-floor apartment in the village of Carbis Bay sleeps six guests and overlooks the rugged coast towards picture-postcard St Ives. Ideal for families or friends sharing, it is just 500 metres from a golden beach with sheltered waters. A walk just over 1 mile along the South West Coast Path with its spectacular views brings you to St Ives, or you can take a scenic 4-minute train ride from Carbis Bay Station, moments away. The village has shops and a good range of eateries, with more tucked away in the narrow streets of St Ives. This characterful town has five gorgeous beaches within walking distance of the town centre and is home to the Tate St Ives and the beautiful Barbara Hepworth Museum. Fairy-tale St Michael’s Mount at Marazion and the famous Mermaid carving in Zennor church are both within 8 miles.

Whatever the weather, the impressive open-plan living space beneath a vaulted ceiling remains flooded with light. The stylish contemporary decor features lavish comfortable seating with a marine theme, from where you can watch the Smart TV, while a dining table with benches sits next to a picture window with a breathtaking view. The charming kitchen houses a pretty breakfast table and has all the culinary kit you might need. You'll find a sleek family bathroom and more marvellous vistas, with three luxurious bedrooms, each with a Smart TV. They comprise a king-size with an en-suite shower room and a zip-and-link super-king-size bed which can be made into twins. Head upstairs to the first floor to find a super-king-size bedroom and delightfully cosy snug, with a Smart TV and bean bags offers younger guests a super secret retreat.

Glass doors from the dining area and kitchen open onto a balcony with patio furniture and superb views. This is a lovely spot for a morning drink or al fresco dining as you watch the waves crash over Godrevy Lighthouse. There is private parking for one car.

The apartment was in a great location, just a very short walk downhill to Carbis Bay beach and right next to the train station. It has great views from the bedrooms as well as the balcony and plenty of space to socialise. The apartment was comfortable and quiet and we had a wonderful long weekend there.
