Stylish coastal retreat in St Ives, hotel in Carbis Bay

Located in Carbis Bay in the Cornwall region, Stylish coastal retreat in St Ives has a patio. This property offers access to a terrace and free private parking.

The garden room exceeded my expectations, firstly we were met by Izzy who was very welcoming and helpful. The room felt very private and had a lovely patio outside. The room was tastefully decorated and well laid out and there was plenty of room to relax with a lovely comfy bed and nice quality furniture. Every detail had been thought about and we used the microwave for our breakfast and there was a coffee machine should you want it. Izzy left lots of treats for us and we enjoyed chocolates, biscuits, milk and there were other drinks in the fridge. The bathroom and shower felt luxurious. We parked on the driveway and it was just a walk down the side of the house to the garden room. All in all, a lovely stay.

The Gannet Inn, hotel in Carbis Bay

Set in a traditional house dating from 1900, The Gannet Inn is located in Carbis Bay, just an 8-minute walk from a sandy beach. It features a bar with a games room and Sky Sports channels.

The staff at the Gannet hotel couldn’t do enough for you. Very accommodating, friendly especially the Receptionist Charmaine. Staff at the Beach front Restaurant need to make customers feel more welcome, felt very uncomfortable.

    Carbis Bay offers a serene coastal retreat with stunning views, pristine sands, and crystal-clear waters. Whether lounging by Bread & Breakfast or indulging in gourmet dining, every moment at Carbis Bay is a true delight. However, the hotel's location may require careful planning for those wishing to explore beyond the resort without a car. Overall, Carbis Bay offers a slice of paradise for those seeking a tranquil escape by the sea!

    We chose the location for a short autumn break and it suited us because of the easy access to St Ives, Mount’s Bay etc. We also wanted to eat at the Ugly Butterfly as we are very keen on Adam Handling’s food.

    Only went to the (lovely) beach once as the hill was so steep to get back up to accommodation near the the main road. Good location for hopping the bus to St Ives and nice views. The Cornish Arms pub is a nice spot for dinner/drinks. Lack of recycling bins.

    Heater provided for room as it was a cold day, books to read was a good touch but all the same author ! DVDs to watch an excellent idea , tea and coffee was easy to make in room. , food was great , unfortunately private cottages at rear had barking dogs all night which totally ruined my stay as they were left outside all night barking , this was not the fault of my hosts, and they said they would report to the agents at rear, I would stay again here however and they accommodated my walk in shower wishes which was great

    NO SEA VIEW. FROM BORDING HOUSE.

    NO SEA VIEW. FROM BORDING HOUSE. CARBIS BAY BEACH IS VERY NICE CLEAN AND TIDY GOOD FACILITIES. DIFFICULT TO ACCSESS BY CAR UNLESS YOU WANT TO PAY £20 PARKING FEE. PARK AT THE TOP AND WALK DOWN, THE WALK BACK IS VERY HARD NOT SUITABLE FOT ELDERLY PEOPLE UNLESS YOU ARE VERY FIT. CARBIS BAY IT SELF IS VERY SMALL AND NOTHING MUCH TO DO ONLY THE BEACH.

    Beautiful white sandy bay with restaurant, bar and toilets.

    Beautiful white sandy bay with restaurant, bar and toilets. Access is via a very steep hill but there is a small car park but costly at £20 a day. Going down to the beach is fine, but going back up is a struggle, especially in this heat wave we’re currently having!!

    The host, Adrian, is friendly and extremely helpful. The breakfast area is bright and colourfully decorated. The continental breakfast has a wide variation of quality products to choose from. Carbis Bay is in a quiet location a short distance outside St Ives and a relatively easy walk if you are fit. There are good restaurants within walking distance. A bus service into St Ives and to other locations in Cornwall passes the front of the property.

    Well appointed property in a peaceful residential cul de sac..hi spec tech and equipment. Well laid out and room for us all to spread out as a family with four grown ‘children’. Liked the utility room for washing and drying beach & walking wear etc. Carbis Bay is a good location for access to lots of local spots and attractions. Local large supermarket only 0.3 mile away and a couple of restaurants within walking distance. We loved The Bean Inn.

    Lovely bungalow in a quiet residential cul-de-sac. Parking at the bungalow and on the street. Location good 15mins walk to Carbis bay (although be aware very steep so not good for the less mobile). Needed a wheelchair at the last moment before arriving which Jayne (the host) went out of her way to arrange. The bungalow was very comfortable and had everything you would possibly need.

    Such a friendly welcoming owner! The property is quirky with lots of character and it's close to a couple of lovely restaurants bars and within walking distance to the train station and carbis bay itself. What a beautiful beach! The bed was soooo comfortable I slept like a baby. Breakfast was fantastic so much choice

    The hotel was lovely and clean, the staff were friendly and helpful. It’s an ideal place to stay as it’s a short walk to st ives or a 2 minute walk to the bus stop. Carbis bay beach is about a 10 minute walk but on the way back a bit longer as it is up hill. Would highly recommend staying at this hotel.

    Amazing Staff and wonderfull breakfast options with cereals, fruits, yogurts and different options of pastry. Nice and clean rooms as well :) It is quite a down hill walk to the Carbis Bay Beach, but not far! Also a 40 min walk to St Ives through the SW Costpath.

    Breakfast excellent, location fine as close to lovely Carbis Bay though immediate area rather depressing as among council-house type buildings. Found the interior decor depressing too! Outside patio/garden was great.

    Very cool, authentic, old pub, which I loved. The patrons and staff were very friendly. I felt like I was staying at a neighborhood hangout, not a hotel. The restaurant/pub is wonderful.

    The hotel was along the highway, near Tesco, and also the bus station. There is an access foot path going to the beach for 7-10 mins walk and it just across the hotel.
