Search hotels in Carbis Bay

I'm not really qualified to talk about Carbis Bay itself. I was there to walk the Coastal Path which is above the Bay, but I did go down on to the sands along the way. The area is very beautiful. There were lots of young families there so I suppose it must be a good place for them. One plus is that there is a little railway that runs along the coast between St Ives and St Erth. Ticket offices, short journeys, very convenient and well used by tourists. If you're going to eat out, during the day or at night, best to book in advance. If you're going in a cooler season (I went in October) make sure to take warm clothes as there can be rain and wind.

Carbis Bay was so relaxing and tranquil. It was almost like being in another part of the world. The views were spectacular when walking from our accommodation to the beach. Just so beautiful and peaceful.

Carbis bay is lovely. I would also advise St ives. Lovely fishing harbour. Plenty of places to eat. And some quaint little shops. If you like eating out. We found 3 lovely pubs. The cornish arms in hayle. The blood and bucket in hayle. And the balnoon inn. In st ives. The beach in hayle is beautiful. Its a lovely sandy beach. Overall carbis bay and St ives is well worth a visit.

A beautiful sandy beach , perfect for families with young children as the water is calmer. Toilets are pretty clean. The beach can be accessed from both ends either via some steep narrow steps (tricky with toddlers!) Or via the main road route. There are not many facilities to buy refreshments and the hotel is very expensive (£6 for 2 cans of coke!) So best to come prepared.

Living in London, this part of England truly amazed and inspired us. The landscape is absolutely beautiful even in this rainy May. The golden sand gives the sea water the colour that you wnat to see for that holiday feeling. It is quite so osrt of family oriented holiday. Don't expect clubs or anything like that. St Ives is just around the corner for more dining options. The harbour is lovely. Transport is also good but need to plan ahead.

Beautiful beaches saw lots of seals, you can catch the train to St ives it takes 5 mins or half a hour walk . Plenty of places to eat and drink . I only stayed over night so did not have time to visit museum and galleries. Planning to return
