Azur

Azur is a reverse-level 2-bedroom apartment in Carbis Bay, part of the Godrevy View building on St Ives Road. The ground floor holds the bedrooms - a king-size with Smart TV and en-suite walk-in shower, and a twin with Smart TV. The upper floor has the open-plan kitchen, dining, and sitting area, plus a balcony with furniture.

The kitchen is equipped with an oven, hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, washing machine, and tumble dryer. A family bathroom with bath and shower-over serves the twin room. A snug/study area provides a quieter space away from the main living area. Note that access between floors is via a spiral staircase.

Outside, an enclosed garden has patio and gravel areas with furniture, separate from the upper balcony. Parking for 2 cars is allocated. The property sleeps 4 as standard.

Carbis Bay beach is 100 metres downhill - a Blue Flag sandy cove with seasonal lifeguard cover, calm water, and kayak hire in summer. Porthkidney Beach, a wide dune-backed strand popular with birdwatchers, is 1.2 miles east. Porthminster Beach in St Ives is 1.2 miles along the coast path. The local pub is 0.1 miles away, and shops are within 0.3 miles. St Ives itself is a 25-minute coast path walk or one stop on the branch line.

Best for a family or two couples who want Carbis Bay beach 100 metres downhill and parking for 2 cars. Less good for anyone who finds stairs difficult, as a spiral staircase links the bedroom floor to the living area.
