    It was lovely and clean the area is very close to the beaches, and easy to get to other parts in Cornwall, the only problem that we had was with the heating system but we would use Sykes cottages again. Yes you can publish our feedback

  • "Fairwinds was everything we were looking for in a holiday home."

    Larger than the photos show. Spotlessly clean and very comfortable beds. The treats for us were a lovely thought. It was an extra bonus having parking at the property. We would definitely recommend. We had a great week stay and the weather was really kind to us. The owner was very helpful when I requested the beds to be split & I asked for there to be no signs of dog things around as we had just lost our much loved Little Lady. Thank you again.

    Thank you for taking the time to give us feedback after your stay. We are sorry to hear about your loss of your loved Little Lady, we are pleased to see that the owner was helpful and thoughtful for your requests.

  • "Overall comfortable."

    The conservatory/porch needs furniture upgrading. No Air fryer as advertised. It would be helpful to have a dustpan and brush available.

    Hello, the air fryer is a mistake by the holiday company. Apologies for the confusion. Property Owner

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.
