Overview
The living spaces within the home are cleverly laid out and feature a large open plan kitchen and dining room which spills out to the alfresco entertainment area and pool terrace via two sets of bifold doors. Perfect for summer days, guests can soak up the sun while lounging around the pool, or fire up the barbecue for fresh air suppers that can be enjoyed either outside or in. Two sitting rooms (both with entertainment systems) mean that parents get to relax and unwind with grown-up conversation while children watch their own movies or TV shows, and four stunning bedrooms (two of which are en-suite) offer exquisite comfort and well-thought-out versatility to suit both couples and family groups.
With its crescent of white sand, turquoise water and lush vegetation, Carbis Bay is a bucket-list destination on Cornwall’s iconic north coast and boasts a world-class family friendly beach as well as ideal water sports conditions. Board and beach hire companies abound offering SUP lessons, tours and kayak safaris that cater to all abilities, so days spent paddling the surf or playing on the sand are firmly on the agenda. Dining out options include stunning beach front restaurants like the Ugly Butterfly and Beach Club while more of the foodie and art culture of the area can be relished in nearby St Ives; within easy reach by car it's also just a short, scenic journey by train and is reported to be one of the queen's favourite routes. For those who fancy something slightly more energetic, the south west coast path runs to either St Ives in one direction or to Porthkidney Sands in the other, and affords walkers some amazing coastal scenery over St Ives Bay.

Beautiful house, lacking a few basics
4.5/5
4.5/5
We stayed here as a family group recently for a birthday celebration and whilst the house itself is beautiful and having the pool and hot tub absolutely brilliant, its beautifully decorated and lots of thought has been put into making you comfortable. It is however lacking in some of the basics such as somewhere to hang towels both wet and dry! No real accessible mirrors in the bedrooms or even the house and only 1 hairdryer in the house with these little (but important) things addressed it would be an absolute dream.

The house was clean and the kitchen was really well stocked with everything we needed. The coffee and tea was a nice touch , as we forgot to bring some!
