About this property
Flat 1 is a superbly located ground-floor apartment with stunning far-reaching sea views overlooking the award-winning Blue Flag beach at Carbis Bay in Cornwall. For a romantic getaway for couples who are beach lovers, this location close to the town of St Ives really is hard to beat. With private parking directly outside the apartment, you enter into the light and airy kitchen and dining area before passing the double bedroom and bathroom on the way through to the sitting room. There is also a double sofa bed for flexible sleeping arrangements. Here, even on a stormy day in winter, you will be able to relax and enjoy the amazing sea views across the bay.
From the delightful sheltered garden which is shared only with one other apartment, you have direct access onto the coastal path. Turn left and you will be on the magnificent Carbis Bay beach and right to the much quieter beautiful sands of Porth Kidney beach. The apartment is situated in a quiet area of Carbis Bay but with the beach, railway station, restaurants and shops all within five minutes’ walk, the situation is perfect. Everyone will want to visit the picturesque harbour town of St Ives with its award-winning beaches, restaurants, cafes and bars but rather than try and drive and park in this ever-popular town, it is strongly recommended that you take the scenic four-minute train ride from the nearby station enabling you to enjoy your day to the full.
Flat 1 rests in a wonderful location offering welcoming accommodation all year round.
Just a short drive from iconic St Ives, the seaside village of Carbis Bay is best known for its beautiful stretch of pure white sand. With turquoise waters and sheltered conditions, the beach feels almost subtropical and is the perfect spot for a good old-fashioned day by the sea. The beach is also home to the Ocean Sports Centre, so if sunbathing is not really your thing, why not hire a kayak or SUP (paddle board) and get out on the water instead? Or why not treat yourself to a Spa day at the delightful hotel which overlooks the beach and has a fabulous terrace where cocktails can be enjoyed in the Cornish sunshine? Carbis Bay has a small range of local shops and restaurants as well as a fish & chip takeaway and railway branch line. The train journey from Carbis Bay into St Ives is perhaps one of the most beautiful in the country; St Ives additionally makes for a great day out, with plenty of galleries to explore. The quayside town of Hayle also isn't far away and is home to activities for all the family, including golf and a wildlife sanctuary. The Godrevy Nature Reserve and Penwith Heritage Coast are also within easy reach from Carbis Bay, providing outdoor and watersports plans with even more activities to partake in, including coasteering and birdwatching. Carbis Bay is truly a wonderful holiday location for those wanting to experience Cornwall's breathtaking coastline.
