Celeste is a top-floor apartment in a converted building on Headland Road, Carbis Bay, sleeping 4 in 2 bedrooms. Sea views extend across St Ives Bay from the shared garden, and dedicated parking for 1 car is included.

The king-size bedroom has a Smart TV, en-suite bath, walk-in shower, and heated towel rail. A twin bedroom - also with Smart TV - is served by a separate bathroom with walk-in shower. The open-plan kitchen-diner and living room feature a 55-inch Smart TV with Sky, a SONOS sound system, and a Nintendo Switch. The kitchen includes an electric cooker, gas hob, Nespresso machine, microwave, fridge, freezer, washer/dryer, and dishwasher.

The shared garden has seating and sea views. Carbis Bay Beach, a Blue Flag sandy cove with seasonal lifeguard cover, is 700 metres away - roughly a 10-minute walk downhill. Porthkidney Beach, a wide dune-backed strand popular with birdwatchers near the Hayle Estuary, is 0.9 miles in the other direction.

Shops, a pub, and the beach are all within 0.3 miles. St Ives is a 25-minute walk along the coast path or one stop on the branch line from Carbis Bay halt. The Tate St Ives, Barbara Hepworth Museum, and harbour-front restaurants are all in St Ives. The South West Coast Path runs through the village, with walks west to Lelant or east along the cliffs.

Best for two couples or a family of four wanting sea views and two separate bathrooms a short walk from Carbis Bay Beach. Less good for anyone who struggles with stairs - it is a top-floor apartment in a converted building.
