5 Bedroom Cottage in Carbis Bay
Settled in the popular coastal village of Carbis Bay, Cornwall, is this luxury five-bedroom holiday home, Beachcroft. Enjoying a superb location just moments away from the beach and local amenities, and a contemporary interior with historic original features dating back to the 1920's, and exceptional views of the bay and sea at every turn, Beachcroft is a fabulous choice for a group or family of 10. The property benefits from being eco-friendly, ample off-road parking, a beautiful, landscaped front garden with seating, and a garden to the side of the house with decking and furniture, perfect for alfresco dining. Inside, you will find a light and airy kitchen, housing everything you need to cook up your favourite dishes, ready to enjoy at the dining table for 10 over bottles of fizz and stunning sea views. Adjoining the kitchen is a handy utility space featuring all your laundry essentials. Continue through to find an inviting sitting room, where you can kick-back and relax on the plush seating in front of the crackling woodburning stove, as your favourite show plays out on the TV. If you fancy a movie night with loved ones, Beachcroft enjoys its own dedicated media room where you can enjoy bowls of popcorn and a film on the big screen, delight in a board game, or enjoy a game on the PS4. Completing the ground floor is a cloakroom for your convenience. Upstairs, five beautifully-decorated bedrooms await, two super-king-size, one with zip/link, two king-size, and a twin with zip/link, all with their own en-suite bathroom/shower room and offering a perfect sanctuary to catch your rest in at the end of the day. Explore the village, where you can treat your loved ones to a meal out at The Bean Inn, La Casita, and The Cornish Arms, stock up on essentials at the convenience stores and supermarkets, embark on a scenic hike along the renowned South West Coast Path, or spend a day along the gorgeous shores of Carbis Bay Beach. Just outside of the village you will find St Ives, where you can create your own souvenir at The Leach Pottery, tour the popular art venues of Tate St Ives and the Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Studio, sample fresh seafood at The Rum & Crab Shack, try your hand at surfing at Porthmeor Beach, or sample a sweet treat from Moomaid of Zennor. Continue onto Hayle, where you will find the Hayle Swimming Pool, RSPB Hayle Estaury, and the Paradise Park and JungleBarn, or venture further afield to Penzance, home to the Penlee House Gallery & Museum, the Jubilee Pool, a picturesque harbour, and a ferry offering trips out to the Isles of Scilly. All this and more awaits at Beachcroft.
Carbis Bay is a picturesque beach community just a short drive from the world-famous St. Ives. The beach is ideal for a traditional day at the beach, with its turquoise seas and protected circumstances giving it a subtropical feel. If lounging in the sun is not your thing, the Ocean Sports Centre is located right on the beach, so you can rent a kayak or stand-up paddleboard and enjoy some time on the water instead. Another option is to enjoy the Cornish sunshine with a cocktail on the hotel's wonderful patio while getting pampered at the hotel's spa. There are a few places to eat and shop in Carbis Bay, as well as a fish and chip takeout and a railroad spur. The train ride from Carbis Bay to St. Ives is renowned as one of the most scenic in the country, and the town of St. Ives itself is a fantastic tourist destination thanks to its abundance of art galleries. It's also not far to the town of Hayle, which features a golf course and a wildlife sanctuary, and is located on the water. Carbis Bay's proximity to the Godrevy Nature Reserve and the Penwith Heritage Coast makes them ideal destinations for outdoor and watersports enthusiasts looking to expand their horizons beyond swimming, surfing, and kayaking. If you're planning a trip to Cornwall and want to see its stunning coastline, Carbis Bay is a great place to stay.
