Atlantic Blue

Atlantic Blue is a duplex penthouse apartment in Carbis Bay, set over two floors with unobstructed sea views across St Ives Bay. The Blue Flag beach at Carbis Bay is 200 metres downhill.

Three bedrooms include a king-size with en-suite shower, a double and a twin. A main bathroom has a bath with shower over. The open-plan living space on the upper floor takes full advantage of the elevated position, with a kitchen-diner and sitting area. Entertainment runs to a Smart TV, a separate TV with DVD and Blu-ray player, a Dolby 2.1 sound system and a games console.

Off-road parking is provided, and a communal garden with furniture offers outdoor space. The apartment is part of Kelwyn Court on Valley Road, a short walk from the village shops and a pub within a third of a mile.

Carbis Bay beach - calm, sheltered water with seasonal lifeguards and kayak hire - is 200 metres away. Porthminster Beach in St Ives, with its award-winning beachfront cafe, is 1.1 miles along the coast path. St Ives itself, with Tate St Ives and the harbour, is reachable on foot in 25 minutes or by a single stop on the St Ives Bay branch line from the halt in the village.

Nearby: Carbis Bay (200m) and Porthminster Beach (1.1 miles). See our Carbis Bay guide for more beaches and walks in the area.

**Best for:** sea-view seekers wanting a beach-and-town base without a car, since the Blue Flag beach at Carbis Bay is 200 metres downhill and St Ives is a single stop away on the branch line. **Less good for:** dog owners, as the property does not accept dogs.
