Holiday Apartments in Carbis Bay

Reviews

What our customers say about their holidays

• Heather - Verified booking

  This property was lovely or so we thought at first .

  It was clean , well equipped ( although there was no bath plug , this was put right ) and well situated with beautiful views of Carbis Bay . All good , you might think . That is until you factor in the people and very large german shepherd dog permanently living in flat 10 directly below the flat 11 holiday let. Front the first evening we were forced to listen to their televisions on so loudly that we could not hear ourselves speak - seriously and this went on every day and night . Next came 6/6.30 am repeated door slammings over and over . Then during the evenings we had a nice little game lasting over an hour at a time called - bounce a tennis ball or similar on the laminate flooring throughout their flat OVER AND OVER AND OVER for the very boisterous , very large german shepherd dog . We had NO PEACE what so ever whilst we stayed in this property which was not a cheap holiday let by any means and had a completely ruined break that we had looked forward to and needed for a long time . There is absolutely no way that the owner of Gwinear ( flat 11) does not know about this and we would never have rented this holiday let had we had any inkling of what waited for us . We want to ask Sykes and the owner for a refund for our ruined Christmas break . Please get back in touch with us asap . Mrs Heather Saunders

• The F Family - Verified booking

  Apartment was fantastic, super clean and tidy with plenty of towels, lovely crisp bedding and the perfect space for a family of 4. The living room was open plan and spacious with 2 large sofas and the most fantastic view over Carbis Bay. We spent every morning sitting on the fantastic windows seats with a cup of coffee staring out at the most amazing view!! The welcome gift was a lovely surprise with local Cornish produce and a bottle of bubbles in the fridge too - perfect start to our fantastic stay! The location is great too - just a short walk to the Beach and the train station which take you direct to St Ives. Or alternatively you can take a lovely coastal walk to St Ives direct from the apartment - which we did most days. Everything we needed was in the apartment, communication regarding checking in and out was straight forward so we had no need to contact the host during our stay. Thank you Cornwall Hideaway for a seamless holiday in the most fanatic location.

  Had an amazing week stay at 8 Fernhill. Apartment was fabulous everything you need and more and all so beautifully presented and kitted out. Used the hamper and picnic chairs every day as we explored the coast and stunning beaches. Great selection of books & DVDs for the odd cosy night in. Well worth a visit down to Carbis Bay estates, they have amazing cocktail bar with stunning views Ugly Butterfly and The Orangery are stunning restaurants , well worth a visit. So many places to visit and explore, the owners keep a good supply of brochures (in the sideboard.) Our highlights have been a boat trip from St Ives to Seal Island, Minack Theatre and a tour around St Michaels Mount but so many more. Take a picnic and take the coastal road to Lands End, loads of fabulous villages and coastal walks to do. A real home from home with a little extra luxury laid on. Cant wait to come back and stay again.

  The apartment was very clean and very nicely decorated.

  The kitchen was well equipped and the welcome biscuits and juice etc were appreciated. The family bathroom was very nice and a good size. We had a very enjoyable stay. I was disappointment by the lack of storage- there wasn’t enough draw space for a family of 4 for a week. We just about managed in the children’s twin bedded room, but my husband ended up putting folded clothes under the bed. The bed was a double, not king which is unusual and we didn’t sleep brilliantly. There’s several sets of doors (2 of which are coded) to get through, this made unpacking the car quite a task! It’s a beautiful apartment, but didn’t quite work for a family of 4.
