Carbis Bay Lodge, 69 Una

Carbis Bay Lodge, 69 Una is a four-bedroom apartment within the Una resort on the coast road between St Ives and Hayle. The property spans two storeys and sleeps up to 8, with access to on-site leisure facilities including a heated indoor infinity pool, gym, spa, sauna, and a seasonal outdoor lido open from April to October.

The ground floor centres on an open-plan living space with an induction hob, dishwasher, and dining table, leading out to the garden. Upstairs, the master bedroom has a super-king bed, en-suite shower room, and private balcony. Three further bedrooms - a king, a second super-king, and a twin - are also on the first floor, with three offering zip-and-link beds. A family bathroom serves the upper level. A wood burner and open fire add warmth in winter.

The enclosed garden includes a patio area with a private hot tub. Off-road parking is provided, and up to four dogs are welcome.

Carbis Bay Beach - a 500-metre arc of Blue Flag sand - is 900 metres away. Porthkidney Beach, a wide dune-backed strand in the Hayle Estuary SSSI, sits 1.4 miles east. The branch line rail halt at Carbis Bay connects to St Erth in 12 minutes, making car-free trips to St Ives straightforward along the coast path or by train.

Nearby: Carbis Bay (900m) and Porthkidney Beach (1.4mi). See our Carbis Bay guide for more beaches and walks in the area.

Best for large family groups or multiple couples sharing, thanks to the four bedrooms, private hot tub and enclosed garden just 900 metres from Carbis Bay beach. Less good for guests who need single-storey living, since all four bedrooms are upstairs, reached via internal stairs from the ground-floor living space.
