We had a lovely week at Carbines, the cottage is a perfect base for exploring St Ives and North Cornwall - ideal for all of the local beaches (Portgwidden is our fav) and two minutes from the heart of the town & harbour. (It’s also two minutes from a local CO-OP store which is a bonus.) We chose to pre-book parking at the Rugby Club, to avoid wasting time looking for spaces around town - a great decision, being just ten minutes-walk from Wesley Place.
All of the main living spaces in the cottage are lovely and comfortable, suiting our family perfectly: the open plan set up is ideal and the kitchen/diner the centre of most of time indoors. In the lounge, the sofas are both a good size and comfortable and the smart TV, DVD, and fast Wi-Fi are all great for film night in on (an unusual) wet evening. We booked particularly because of the added bonus of a games room in the basement with pinball and Bar-football - great for a family competition. Upstairs the bedrooms are all a good size, light and airy with comfortable beds.
All booking and pre-arrival communications were prompt and clear, and a couple of minor issues we raised on arrival were swiftly dealt with - much appreciated.
