Una, Lodge 77

Una Lodge 77 is a 2-bedroom self-catering lodge within the Una Resort complex at Carbis Bay, sleeping 4 across 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The standout feature is the private hot tub, supplemented by shared access to the resort's heated swimming pool - a combination rarely available at this location on the St Ives Bay coastline.

The lodge has an open fire, an enclosed garden, dishwasher, washing machine, and off-road parking. Wi-Fi is provided. One well-behaved pet is welcome. The resort setting gives guests shared facilities alongside a self-catering base.

Carbis Bay beach - a Blue Flag sandy cove with sheltered swimming - is around 700 metres away. Porthkidney Beach, a quieter stretch good for walking, is about 1.2 miles to the east. St Ives harbour and town centre, with its galleries and independent restaurants, is accessible in about 25 minutes on foot along the South West Coast Path or via the branch line rail halt at Carbis Bay. Porthminster Beach in St Ives is roughly 2.6 miles by road.

Best for: groups of 4 wanting a hot tub and pool access with easy reach of St Ives - a good pairing for those who want both resort comforts and access to one of Cornwall's most visited towns. Less good for: anyone wanting a more remote rural experience.
