Your families Ideal location for the 2020’s. In a private road and a secluded setting with its own front door just far enough away from the bustle of St ives and yet within easy reach if you desire. Overlooking Carbis Bay with the facilities of the Carbis Bay Hotel a 10 minute walk away. In the other direction can be found the Tregenna Castle hotel with its golf course which is also a 10 minute walk.
Go to bed with the doors open and you will fall asleep to the sound of the sea; step out onto the covered balcony and be instantly connected with the coast line and beach. You may even spot dolphins in the Bay. Have breakfast outside under cover in the early morning sun and plan whether to go out or simply stay where you are. The view is stunning. This Light Filled apartment is on the first floor of an Edwardian Country House which was built for the St Ives School of Artists. There are 2 bathrooms (one en-suite), with a large, high ceilinged Bedroom with Sea views and a door to the Balcony. The Main living room is double aspect with French Windows also leading onto the balcony. The kitchen/diner has a range cooker, fridge, freezer, washing machine and dish washer. The property is set in a Sub Tropical Garden It is accessed via 2 sets of steps down from the lane outside. It is suitable for couples of all ages and those with children, however, children should be supervised on the balcony. There are 7 other properties in the building, some of which are private residencies and not rented out. The house is situated in Treloyhan which is the most exclusive area of St Ives. In springtime the scent of wild garlic is wonderful. The house is ideally situated 100 metres from the South West Coast Path. The whole area is a haven for wildlife which includes Owls, Buzzards, Green Woodpecker and a myriad of smaller birds. Foxes and Badgers may be glimpsed. Specimen trees are in abundance in the area. The best way to enjoy all of this is by walking. The pedestrian pathway leads through the Gardens on the Seaward side of the house down a pathway lined with ancient moss covered granite walls to Haines Walk . Then you must decide whether to turn right to Carbis Bay where you can enjoy the facilities of the Carbis Bay Hotel, the beach with its water sports and marvellous walks or turn left towards St Ives itself. The location is perfect. Another option is to walk to the Tregenna Castle Hotel where you can be enjoying a round of golf within 10 minutes with probably the best view of St Ives from the 12th Fairway! Tescos is also a 10 minute walk as is our local the Cornish Arms. This is genuinely a special place. This apartment is also perfect to explore the Poldark series locations.

    The balcony view was wonderful. Was nice to be able to walk on SWCP to Carbis Bay and St. Ives.

    Delightful cottage with stunning views of Carbis Bay and the property’s own beautiful gardens. Step onto the coastal path from the garden access and walk to the beach in ten. Excellent amenities with super eat in kitchen, laundry, spacious living room and pretty bedrooms. We enjoyed many meals on the balcony, listening to the breaking ocean waves. Wifi and quick walking access to Tesco. Take the footpath to St Ives and beyond along the stunning coastal path.No car needed to enjoy this property (we walked from Carbis rail), however parking is available anyway.

    A superb base for our week discovering West Cornwall. The views from the apartement are outstanding, even better than the photos suggest, and the covered terrace is a great place to relax and soak in the view. The living room and spacious light-filled master bedroom are both nice, second bedroom is really small. Well-equipped throughout, particularly the kitchen, with a range cooker, and all the pots and pans necessary for cooking (note there are no restaurants in easy walking distance). All equipment is modern and in good working order, better than usually found in rental accomodation these days. Shame there was not a better coffee making machine.Only real negative is the size of the beds, both the singles and the small double seemed undersized. Otherwise, no complaints.

    A quiet, relaxing place to stay with a fabulous view over Carbis Bay. Be prepared for the challenging up and downs of the paths at first… however after a few days it was a real pleasure to walk into St Ives and back and Carbis Bay and back. Would stay again.

    Cute cottage style apartment with stunning views of the coast. We loved the direct access to the coastal footpath for daily outings. The apartment was charming and spacious: well equipped eat-in kitchen, dishwasher, laundry washer, large living room with balcony access, comfortable main bedroom with views and a reading nook, and a cosy second room with two singles. The apartment had been very nicely cleaned for us on arrival and the appliances and WIFI worked well. The host was prompt and helpful in replying to our messages. Nice additions would be to make available a few extra supplies such as shampoo, tissues, and to top up soap dispensers. This is perhaps more noted by international guests who can't carry liquids through security and don't wish to purchase such items only to dispose of them after a week. That said, the cottage is extremely convenient to a Tesco superstore (3 minute walk). We avoided the use of the shower & bath in the main bathroom due to concerns raised by the host on a tendancy for an alarm to sound if water splashes onto the floor. This wasn't a problem for our family as we simply used the ensuite shower. However, it could be more of a nuissance for other guests who prefer separate bathrooms. If there is a fix, that would be welcome. We had a very lovely stay and would definitely recommend it to family and friends.

    We had a wonderful week staying in this apartment. A great location for exploring this corner of Cornwall and easy access to St Ives, without the challenge of finding somewhere to park! The views were unbeatable ! We loved having breakfast on the balcony or sitting in the garden, watching the waves rolling in. SO very relaxing :) The flat itself has everything you need and very spacious. Very well equipped and with Tesco just up the road, self catering is very easy. Big thanks to Susie who was very helpful and brilliant at replying to messages/ questions we had. That was much appreciated. We would love to return here and would recommend 100%!
