There's nothing quite like a day at the beach in Carbis Bay, just a short drive from St Ives. For an old-fashioned day at the beach, head to the beach's turquoise seas and protected conditions, which give the area an almost subtropical atmosphere. Ocean Sports Centre is located on beach, so if sunbathing isn't your thing, why not rent a kayak or stand-up paddleboard and get out on the ocean instead? Spa days at the beachfront boutique hotel are also a great option, as is a relaxing day on the rooftop terrace where you can sip cocktails while taking in the sea views. Carbis Bay is home to a handful of small businesses and eateries, as well as a fish and chip shop and a railroad spur. Train rides from Carbis Bay to St Ives are among the most scenic in Britain.

6 remotes for tv usage complicated. Everything else was very good.

Everything was first class. Starting with the very best aspects first, the patio and superb view, very well appointed with good quality throughout, spacious, easy private access to the beach, very secure with easy parking, lovely beach, easy to get to St Ives on foot or by scenic train.
Lucy
Great location and apartment and would 100% stay again. In the most part very clean, however the carpets are full of hair which was sticking to all our socks. The WiFi didnât loaded and the bottom gate to the beach would be better being a code rather than fob so you donât have to take keys to the beach.
