  Absolutely fantastic stay!

  Views are incredible...photos actually don't do them justice. Missing looking out the window while eating breakfast already. The binoculars provided were a brilliant touch, my kids loved looking out to see the lighthouse and all the boats. Location is perfect, with Carbis Bay only a stone's throw away and the train station ideal to access St Ives super quickly. Would 100% stay here again and I've already sent the link to the apartment to a few friends, as I had so many questions about it from photos I've taken the last week. Just a couple of tiny suggestions for future people staying.... there were dishwasher tablets but no washing up liquid provided, not a major issue but needed it as only 4 of us there so wouldn't use the dishwasher daily. Also, could do with some pint glasses and at least one extra plastic cup for the kids (was only 1 in cupboard). Extra bin bags would also be a good idea. Despite these tiny things I was blown away by the facilities and cleanliness at the apartment. Also a fab touch having milk, tea, coffee, sugar and kitchen roll provided. Everything was easy to use and plenty of great instructions for appliances (e.g. washing machine and dishwasher). My kids want to sell our house and live in your holiday home lol. Thanks again for a marvellous stay

  Nice apartment, very modern and with just about everything you need for a holiday let.

  Lovely views out of the lounge windows too. We took our two grandchidren and they were pleased to see lots of Playstation games and DVD's etc. The only thing that we found annoying was we booked several months ago and the information said the lift wasn't working at that time. we thought it might have been fixed but sadly not. We are both getting on in years and the climb up the two flights of stairs with all our cases and paraphernalia with 2 grandchildren was rather exhausting so it would be nice to see the lift working (especially after the climb up the hill from the beach every day!) Other than that the only thing was the central heating kept coming on even though we turned the thermostat right down so it was rather warm at times. Bedrooms are a good size with plenty of wardrobe and drawer space and great to see lots of coat hangers in the wardrobe rather than the 3 or 4 that a lot of places provide. The 2 good size en suite bathrooms were great as well with plenty of towels provided. All in all it is a lovely apartment with great facilities and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone.

  Ideally positioned in Carbis Bay.

  Good access to the coastal path and scenic walks. Note steep road down to the beach. Didn’t bother us but could be an issue for some. Good parking spot. Electric gates out of order (not really an issue). Two flights of stairs to property (lift out of order). Bright and airy property. It was generally clean and the kitchen was generally well stocked. One or two broken kitchen door handles and the microwave was marked inside. One or two broken items left in the cupboards. No pint glasses and only 4 forks! Definitely had the feel of being managed by a holiday property company rather than the extra touches often achieved when managed by the owners. Excellent view of the bay and views towards St Ives and Godrevy lighthouse. Some lovely walks from the property into St Ives. Handy train service too £1 each way. Ran quite late making it easy to eat out in an evening. A decent fish and chip shop “Becks” a short walk up the hill. Would consider returning

  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.

  The property was very comfortable and well situated with excellent views of Carbis Bay.

  A few basic things let it down - three bulbs were not working - two in the lounge and one in the double room ensuite bathroom. A clock on the mantlepiece was not working - it had no battery - either get a battery or supply a clock that works ! A couple of the magazines about Cornwall in the lounge were 5 years old - it can't be difficult to get some up to date information. The windows needed a good clean and also not enough toilet rolls were provided, we had to go and buy some. Finally the outside bin we were instructed to use was not numbered (in fact none of the bins were numbered). Nothing major, however when paying £1,639 for a weekly rental I expect better!
