A recently renovated guest house set in Carbis Bay, Carbis Bay Suite, Carbis Bay, St Ives, free parking, near beach features a garden. This property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi. The property is non-smoking and is located less than 1 km from Carbis Bay Beach.

The room was comfortable, warm and freshly renovated. Check-in and out was easy, and the hosts communicated brilliantly. The location was great. Able to get down to the beach quickly; 10 - 15 minutes walk (we walk quickly...)--albeit there is a fairly steep hill to negotiate, but you have to come up the hill if you want to get anywhere at all from the beach, so it's unavoidable. I'm sure you can easily get a taxi back up if necessary.

    Was working local so ideal. Room cosy, bed comfy, plenty tea and coffee in room. Small menu, had the steak well tasty. Breakfast, one of the best fry ups ever had. Bar area fine, was a Monday night so quiet, but locals and staff were friendly enough

    The property is ideally located for both Carbis Bay Beach and Carbis Bay Station. St. Ives is one stop away and takes 2 minutes to get to and only cost £1 each way. The beach is excellent - very clean with clear water. Be aware that whilst the station and beach are walking distance, they are both downhill - the walk back can be tiring but not unmanageable. Margaret and Martin are great hosts and like to spend time getting to know their guests with a genuine interest in them.

    The location was superb! The apartment overlooked Carbis Bay Beach which was within walking distance. It was very warm & cosy on the wet days when we needed more heat. Parking was in front of the apartment. Bob & Linda were great hosts & were on hand if we needed anything as they were in the ground floor apartment. First class stay from beginning to finish!! Thank you!
