Bay Dream - just 15 minutes' walk from Carbis Bay Beach

Bay Dream is a beautifully refurbished self-contained annexe in Carbis Bay. Fully equipped and ideally positioned, it's the perfect base from which couples and families can explore the coastal towns and beaches of St Ives Bay including Carbis Bay, St Ives, Lelant and Hayle which are all within either a short walk or short drive from the property.

Situated on a quiet residential street above Porthrepta Beach (Carbis Bay), this tastefully styled property has everything you’ll need for a restful and relaxing stay. There’s a lovely open plan living space where you’ll be able to unwind after sun-soaked beachy days, and a dining area for sharing meals or discussing the day’s plans over a coffee or glass of wine. The stunning kitchen comes amply equipped for rustling up home feasts but for guests who prefer dining out, restaurants like La Casita and The Cornish Arms are within minutes of the property.

The gorgeous separate bedroom with comfortable king size bed has its own flat screen TV, and the clean and contemporary bathroom which features a large walk-in shower, has a thoroughly designer-like edge to it as well as top-notch fittings throughout. Crisp white on the walls contrasts the deep blues and black of cabinetry and upholstery to create a superbly stylish space, and together with the quality of the facilities provided as well as its private outside space, makes this property a dream find.

Nearby Carbis Bay Beach is a 15-minute walk or 3 minutes’ drive away and here you’ll discover one of the most beautiful crescents of white sand and turquoise water in all of Cornwall. Spend the day relaxing on the beach, or if you fancy something a little more active, grab a paddle board or kayak from its beach-based surf school and take to the water for your own little adventure. The coast path from here to St Ives showcases some rather spectacular views over the bay, and being an easy 1.9km with very gentle ascents means it’s the perfect way for the whole family to enjoy the fresh sea air and wonderful scenery. For something slightly less energetic, Carbis Bay’s single-track railway on the St Erth line follows the same dramatic path along the coast and offers passengers a unique vantage point of St Ives Bay and beyond.

We ask our guests for a £100 good housekeeping bond, which is pre-authorised against your card. This is in case there is any damage to the property during your stay. The money is simply reserved and then released afterwards if there is no claim. We will contact you nearer the time of your arrival to arrange this.

2 pets accepted: Please advise the Luxury Coastal team directly if you would like us to host your pet after completing your booking. A charge of £25 per pet per stay/week will be applicable and required before your stay. We will arrange and invoice with you directly upon booking confirmation.

A great little gem
We had a fantastic stay at Bay Dream. The location was perfect, we had a great time exploring all the nearby beaches and towns. Although Carbis Bay beach is beautiful I would recommend a car to get around. Bay Dream was clean, cosy and a nice base to stay. They even allowed our dog ! We would definitely come back and would recommend to our family and friends.

Enjoyable

Out of the way of hussle and bussle with good amenities for us & our dog,( a couple of dogs friendly restaurants.Costcustter cross the road, Tesco’s near by, field across the road ideal for dog owners. Nice walk into St Ives or 3 minute train ride to find a lovely quaint town & lovely sandy beaches) it’s was ideal for us, and we are looking forward to returning next year.

Carbis Bay not Bay Dream?
Poor quality mattress and bedding which was disappointing given the cost of the accommodation. Location details ambiguous: property is on the main road, next to a bus-stop and post box, so lots of stop/start traffic. A nod to Christmas would have been nice as this was last w/e before Chridtmas. Well-appointed, but didn't try cooking a meal.

A Great Place To Stay
The house is very well layed out.We arrived and it was clean and welcoming with everything that you need for a holiday. It is on the main road to St. Ives but you don't hear any road noise. It's perfectly placed to get into St Ives. There are regular buses and you can get there in about 7 minutes. So you don't have to try to park or navigate the very narrow roads in the town. Its a good base to go sight seeing and also has fantastic facilities near by. A great fish and chip shop(be warned massive portions!!!)great pubs and restaurants,we highly recommend Cafe Casita. Great food and atmosphere.There are so many things to be positive about!!! Two small negatives,if you're taking your four legged friend ,the outside space is small but this is far outweighed by the fact that opposite the house there is a park. So that is great for giving your dog his exercise. If he hasn't had enough during the day.Also the walk to the beach from the house is longer than we thought and all down hill. We thought it would be nearer. We would definitely like to stay again.Thank you Grant and Emma.
