"This property is a first class position, with lovely views, it's a shame about the height of the trees in the garden to the left but is not a problem at the moment."

We have stayed in a lot of property but the sofas are the best we have used and very comfortable, everything being on one level was a big bonus to. Parking off road was well laid out with good space. Thank you once again for another great week's holiday we will be back again soon. Brian

"Breath-taking views."

Could have sat on the couch all week watching the sea, the boats, the birds, the bats, the fireworks! But, of course, we were off exploring - the train was fabulously handy - the walk to the beach was short and good exercise coming back! We loved the apartment. It was clean, comfortable and contemporary. Thank you, thank you! xx

"The view makes the difference at kernows dream,fantastic!"

handy for the station at carbis bay.short walk ish to st Ives. Most important it was pet friendly. Unfortunately no longer, and like all in the visitors book,we are so disappointed we cannot return next year with the dog. we are willing to pay the hike in price for 2022,nearly 70%, but it would have to include taking the dog! best regards, DRT

Unfortunately, the owner has made the decision to no longer accept dogs in the property, but please don feel free to look at other properties on on website that are pet friendly.

"Lovely place, great views from the lounge."

Can see the sunrise from the balcony about 6.30 am. Place is very warm. Windows in main bedroom and living room needed to be permanantly open. Loved the washing machine and dryer - no washing for me when I get home. Enjoy!

"We were bowled over with the view."

Our second time staying in Carbis Bay and we once again find a near perfect holiday home that we can't revisit because it will no longer be dog friendly. So we leave Kernow's Dream wishing all the future visitors as lovely a holiday as we have had. Thank you for a small taste of paradise.

"Fab Apartment, everything we could need."

Lovely view. Master bedroom very hot and no dressing table, but thats the only negative. Weather fantastic, train to St Ives very handy. Had lovely meals at the Gannet and Firehouse. Bit busy for our liking in St Ives, hopefully quieter in September when we visit again.

""‘The apartment was beautiful, and the view was amazing."

Cream tea on arrival, which was a lovely welcome, I would highly recommend ‘Kernows Dreams’ to family and friends. Carbis Bay Holidays were very thorough from start to finish, with plenty of information given. Hayley the housekeeper was lovely, nothing was too much trouble. Looking forward to booking again for next year.’"

About the location

CARBIS BAY

St Ives 2 miles
Hayle 3.5 miles
Penzance 8.5 miles

Just a short drive from iconic St Ives, the seaside village of Carbis Bay is best-known for its beautiful stretch of pure white sand. With turquoise waters and sheltered conditions, the beach feels almost subtropical and is the perfect spot for a good old-fashioned day by the sea. The beach is also home to the Ocean Sports Centre, so if sunbathing is not really your thing, why not hire a kayak or SUP and get out on the water instead. Or why not treat yourself to a Spa day at the delightful hotel which overlooks the beach and has a fabulous terrace where cocktails can be enjoyed in the Cornish sunshine? Carbis Bay has a small range of local shops and restaurants as well as a fish & chip takeaway and railway branch line. The train journey from Carbis Bay into St Ives is perhaps one of the most beautiful in the country; St Ives additionally makes for a great day out, with plenty of galleries to explore. The quayside town of Hayle also isn't far and is home to activities for the all the family, including a golf and a wildlife sanctuary. The Godrevy Nature Reserve and Penwith Heritage Coast are also within easy reach from Carbis Bay, providing outdoors and watersports plans with even more activities to partake in, including coasteering and birdwatching. Carbis Bay is truly a wonderful holiday location for those wanting to experience Cornwall's breathtaking coastline.

There is a Good Housekeeping Bond of £100 for this property.
Access to the apartment level (except for 2 steps) and along entrance hallway from car park.

Unfortunately, the gravel path, down the side of the apartments, to the communal gardens has been highlighted as not suitable for frequent use. The owners are looking at addressing this in the long term, but in the meantime they have installed 'no pedestrian access' sign to say that guests will be unable to use the path to access the communal gardens and therefore the communal gardens will be inaccessible via the path for the duration of your stay. We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience caused.
