Carbis Bay is best known for its beach of pale sand, where the Ocean Sports Centre hires out kayaks and paddle boards. Tate St Ives and the Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden are in St Ives, and the railway branch line runs from Carbis Bay into St Ives. Trencrom Hill and Upton Towans Nature Reserve are named among the walking options nearby.

Check-in is from 3pm and check-out by 11am. Smoking is not allowed, and smoke and carbon monoxide detectors are fitted throughout. The apartment is not suitable for children, infants or group bookings, so it is best for a couple travelling with a dog; it is less good for families.
