• "A lovely apartment."

  Nice and clean. Cosy and warm when need be. Super views. It would be nice if there were black out curtains instead of a blind in the bedroom. Don't know why the building is floodlit. Could a small carton of milk be left in the fridge? We had a very long journey, 11 hours! So needed a coffee.

  Thank you for your feedback, we are pleased to hear you found the apartment nice and clean. We will be sure to pass on your comments to the owner for their consideration. We are very sorry to hear you had no milk on arrival this is provided on arrival we will be sure to raise this with the housekeeper. We hope you had a lovely holiday and we hope we have the opportunity to welcome you back again in the future. Kind Regards, The Carbis Bay Holidays Team. Property Owner

• "Ideal location right next to Carbis Bay Train station."

  popped into St Ives a few times, just as well as the streets are not car friendly and parking is limited. Excellent views from the apartment over Carbis Bay. A smart, reasonably sized apartment in a quiet area. The goodies left by Carbis Bay Holidays were a nice touch. Apologies for not leaving a comment in the Visitor's Book as I did not have a pen. The weather was overcast and misty for the first couple of days but was brighter for the rest of the week. Great weather for October, to be fair. I will definitely consider returning to Carbis Bay again, an excellent base for exploring the area.

• "Apartment generally clean and tidy on arrival."

  One of the freezer trays were dirty and a few hairs in bathroom. Apartment in an ideal spot for walking coastal paths and beaches and train. Could do with some new soft towels and new furniture on the balcony. Overall a lovely place to stay

  Also a few small things need looking regards repair - shower door in en suite not properly attached at top, floor tiles in kitchen cracked and need replacing, lounge door lock to balcony very stiff. Many thanks - see you next year :)

• "The property provided a good base to explore some of Cornwall."

  It would, however, have been good to know about the building works that were going on outside the property as it was noisy and disruptive on occasions. Had we known about the works, we may not have booked that particular property. There was also an outside light that stayed on all night and shone quite brightly into the property which was a little annoying when trying to get the children off to sleep.

  Thank you so much for your feedback. We are sorry that you weren’t aware of the building works, we can see that this notice has been in place for some time prior to your booking and we hope that people see this notice regarding the building work which can be found at the bottom of the web page for the property and also appears at the top on the page when booking. Gwinear has included a 20% reduction in rental cost due to the proximity of the building works. Apologies that the light outside seemed disruptive, we will pass this onto our property management team to see if there is anything we can do to rectify it. We hope to welcome you back in the future and thank you again for your comments. Kind Regards, The Carbis Bay Holidays Team Property Owner

• "The facilities in the apartment were good quality."

  It was a shame that the cleaning upon arrival was fairly poor and we had to clean the kitchen, chairs and floors ourselves. Great location, right next the the station, coastal path to St Ives and a short walk to the beach. Ideal for anyone wanting to be in the centre of Carbis Bay, but need to be fairly mobile due to local hills and a few steps up to the apartment.

• "Another lovely stay in Gwinear."

  Great location and apartment has everything we needed, unfortunately the apartment wasn’t as clean as last year, the floors seemed dirty and the windows had handprints and marks on them. Also there was no mention of the building work that would be going on. We were woken up every morning before 8 by noisy diggers and builders. Such a shame!

• "There was a large scale construction project happening directly in front of the apartment so we got to wake up to the sound of heavy machinery, beeping and hammering every morning."

  Also we both noticed after a few days how dirty our socks were going into the wash, the windows in the living room were covered in hand marks. The TV service kept getting interrupted every few minutes making it impossible to watch anything.

  Dear Mark, Firstly, apologies for the delay in responding to your feedback. Thank you for your feedback relating to Gwinear, we always welcome guest observations to help us improve things. The construction work is unfortunately out of our control, although we can understand the frustration. This is being monitored closely and we are updating our website in accordance to our findings. In regard to the cleanliness, we have passed this to our housekeeping team. We endeavor to keep our properties to a very high standard. Kindest Regards, Carbis Bay Holidays Property Owner

• ""The apartment was spotlessly clean and well appointed."

  It is in a very convenient location being close to Carbis Bay beach and the coastal path to St Ives one way and Hayle the other way. The train offers transport both ways too at a very reasonable cost and provides excellent service with trains running every half hour. The apartment had everything we needed. It was light an airy with views of the coast. Riveria apartments are about 35 years old but the accommodation had recently been modernised and had parking which is a real bonus."

• ""We loved Gwinear apartment."

  It is in a good location with a great view. It was spotlessly clean and very well stocked. The beds and pillows are very comfortable and the white towels lovely and fluffy. Also, the welcome gifts were much appreciated. Carbis Bay and St Ives are beautiful and we loved Cornwall. It is only a short walk from the apartment to the train station to get a train into St Ives and only costs £1 each."

• ""We have had a brilliant holiday in Gwinear Carbis Bay with our two grandsons Jack and Oscar."

  The superb beach is a short walk away and the sea is an amazing turquoise colour. The accommodation was first class and could not be faulted, with sea views of St Ives to the west and Lelant to the east. Close to the railway station with regular trains to St Ives along the picturesque coastline."
