A spectacular dwelling in a sought-after location overlooking the picturesque Carbis Bay Beach, this holiday home is fabulous for family gatherings or a getaway with friends. It’s just 2 miles from the heart of St Ives, a town known for its vibrant arts scene and seaside views. Whether you’re a beach lover or culture enthusiast, there’s oodles of stuff to do nearby, whether you’re lounging on the beach (500 metres) or wandering around galleries like the Tate St Ives (2.5 miles).
This glorious home has a reverse-level layout so you can make the most of the breathtaking views during your stay. The furniture and fittings are all of an exceptional quality reminiscent of a swanky hotel. On the top floor, the modern kitchen is filled with natural light. Downstairs, the spacious lounge opens out onto a gorgeous balcony where you can sip a glass of wine while watching the sun set over the bay. When it’s time to retire for the night, head to the lower ground floor which is home to three stylish bedrooms: an en-suite super-king room with its own terrace, plus two king-size zip-and-link rooms that can be made into twins on request. Don’t forget to make the most of the tiered patio garden, which has a sunny deck for al fresco dining and a hot tub for stargazing at night. Guests will also find private parking for three cars.
Carbis Bay Beach is wonderful for whiling away an afternoon, with its soft sand and calm waters perfect for swimming. Keen to surf like the locals, or at least give it a go? Head to Porthmeor Beach (2.5 miles). Head to the local train station (2 miles) to take a scenic ride to St Erth (5 miles) or make a beeline for the Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden (2 miles).
