Bay View, Compass Point

Bay View is a first-floor apartment in the Compass Point development in Carbis Bay, sleeping 4 across 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The Compass Point complex sits on the headland above the village, and the position gives the master en-suite bedroom a direct sea view across St Ives Bay.

The apartment has 2 double bedrooms with an en-suite to the master. Residents share a large communal seating area above the garages, looking out over the bay, with deck chairs stored for guests. Wifi and parking are included.

Carbis Bay beach, a Blue Flag sandy cove around 400 metres down the hill, takes roughly 10 minutes on foot. St Ives is 1.2 miles east along the South West Coast Path - the walk follows the cliff edge above the bay and arrives at the harbour in under 30 minutes. The St Ives Bay Line rail halt is nearby, with trains running to St Erth in 12 minutes and connecting to mainline GWR services. Porthminster Beach is 1.2 miles from the apartment.

Best for couples or small families who want a quieter base than St Ives itself, within walking distance of two beaches. Less suitable for guests expecting a garden or who need ground-floor access - the apartment is on the first floor with no lift.
