Carbis Bay Cottages
The quiet, unassuming sister of St Ives, Carbis Bay is only one mile west from its famous neighbour and overlooks the bay to the iconic lighthouse just off-shore at Godrevy Point, four miles further west across the golden sands of the Towans.Read more
Carbis Bay is a lot quieter all year round and boasts three of the finest sandy beaches in the area, Carbis Bay beach, Porthkidney Sands and Hawkes Point, perfect for families and couples. If you want to sample the delights of St Ives, leave your car behind and catch the train or stroll along the coast path - you will not be disappointed as you round the final corner.

We’ve been raising the standards of self catering holidays since 1977.
Our family ethos
Tony and Clare Tregoning started the business back in 1977 and their dedication to quality and excellence is at the heart of everything we do. Tony is sadly no longer with us, but we still adhere to their original ethos of finding holiday homes we would like to stay in and have slowly grown the company to find the best picks of properties across the counties. Plus Clare still drops in to keep us on our toes.
As an independent, family-run company, we wouldn’t expect you to stay anywhere we wouldn’t want to stay ourselves. And we’re pretty picky. We want you to walk into your handpicked holiday home and say ‘wow’, sit back and relax.
