  • "We loved Skysail!"

    The view is spectacular. We enjoyed the climb up and down to the coast path and the beach and were much faster by the end of the week! Perfect location for getting out and about around the area and walking from the property. The facilities were great and we loved it. Very quiet location, beautifully appointed house and a perfect holiday

  • "The holiday home was near to perfect the walk in shower door was unpredictable at times as it jammed on a couple of occasions."

    The only thing the property was missing was some hand soap for the bathrooms and kitchen however i did leave the ones i purchased there for the next holiday makers. Other than the above i couldn't fault anything, the apartment was homely ,the beds were unbelievably comfortable, the sea view was spectacular and the location was perfect. We cant wait to stay next august. Thank you for a lovely stay and the gifts you provided. (I hope you don't mind but we left 2 body boards in the facility room for the next holiday makers)

    Thank you for taking the time to give us feedback after your stay. We are pleased to see the holiday home was near to perfect. We hope to welcome you back again in the near future. Kind regards, Carbis Bay Holidays Team. Property Owner

Where you’ll be staying

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 (paddle board) 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 away and is home to activities for all the family, including golf and a wildlife sanctuary. The Godrevy Nature Reserve and Penwith Heritage Coast are also within easy reach from Carbis Bay, providing outdoor 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.
