Carlyon Bay Hotel and Spa
Clifftop spa hotel above Carlyon Bay beach
Carlyon Bay Hotel and Spa is a sea-view hotel above Carlyon Bay, part of the clifftop setting that gives the area its slower-paced, spa-hotel character. A golf course runs along the same clifftop next to the hotel grounds. The hotel has a swimming pool, a private hot tub and a spa, with Carlyon Bay beach around 0.3 miles below.
Parking, WiFi and garden grounds are included. Rooms are booked individually, so check the specific room type for sea view and occupancy before booking.
Charlestown Beach is 0.8 miles from the hotel and Porthpean Beach 1.5 miles, putting three named beaches within 1.5 miles. The South West Coast Path runs past the bay towards Charlestown, a Georgian harbour village with tall ships often moored and a history as a Poldark filming location, roughly a 45-minute walk along the coast path. The Eden Project and the Lost Gardens of Heligan are both under ten minutes away by car. The hotel's postal address is in St Austell, though Carlyon Bay itself is the nearest recorded town.
**Best for:** Couples or families wanting a sea-view hotel with pool, hot tub, spa and parking close to Carlyon Bay beach.
**Less good for:** Dog owners, guests needing EV charging or step-free access, or anyone wanting a specific room configuration. Booking.com handles reservations.
