Sand Dunes 6 The Manor

About this property

Carbis Bay 1.5 miles. Sand Dunes is located in the quaint Cornish village of Lelant, not far from the lively seaside resort of Carbis Bay. This chic, dog-friendly apartment on the first floor is conveniently located near the golden sands of Hayle Beach and the West Cornwall Golf Club, and it also features off-street parking and a welcoming interior, making it an ideal getaway for four friends or families or couples looking to relax in the Cornish sunshine. Upon entering, you'll find a homely seating area, and then you can make a beeline for the kitchen, where you'll find everything you need to cook up a storm for the whole family. Share your culinary masterpiece at the table in the living room before settling in for a quiet evening in front of the Smart TV with a good movie. When the yawning sets in, you can catch up on sleep in one of the two tastefully decorated bedrooms, a king-size with en-suite bathroom, and a twin with en-suite shower room. If you can bear to leave this idyllic home-from-home, take a stroll past the golf course, where you may practice your swing in the crisp sea air, and head for the coastal path that takes you down to the sandy beach of Hayle Sands. Take your dog for a stroll down the shore and soak up the sun while taking in the breath-taking views across the estuary and sea, and from here you can follow the coastal trail to the charming fishing village of Carbis Bay, where there are wonderful views from Hawkes Point and a picture-perfect beach, as well as a selection of eateries and independent shops. From here you can visit the bustling port of St Ives, a short train ride away, where you can explore the coast with a boat ride, try out home-made ice cream at the ice cream parlour, visit Tate St. Ives and Penwith Gallery and then gaze out over the blue waters from Porthmeor Beach. Hayle is close to the property and is home to several family-friendly attractions, including an outdoor pool where children may play safely, the rare bird and exotic animal exhibit and indoor play area at Paradise Park and JungleBarn, and the Estuary Nature Reserve. Enjoy your stay at Sand Dunes!

The beachfront community of Carbis Bay, which is only a short drive from famous St. Ives, is well-known for its stunning stretch of fine, white sand. With turquoise waters and protected conditions, the beach feels almost subtropical and is the perfect site for a good old-fashioned day by the sea. If sunbathing is not really your thing, why not rent a kayak or stand-up paddleboard (SUP) and venture out on the water instead? The Ocean Sports Centre is located on the beach. Or why not treat yourself to a spa day at the charming hotel that has a gorgeous patio where you can sip cocktails while enjoying the Cornish sunlight and views out onto the beach? Together with a takeout serving fish and chips and a railway branch line, Carbis Bay features a limited selection of neighbourhood stores and eateries. One of the most picturesque train rides in the nation takes passengers from Carbis Bay to St. Ives; St. Ives itself is a wonderful day trip destination with a variety of art galleries to see. There are family-friendly activities nearby, including golf and a wildlife sanctuary, in the quayside town of Hayle. Easily accessible from Carbis Bay, the Godrevy Natural Reserve and Penwith Heritage Coast offer even more opportunities for outdoor and watersports enthusiasts to engage in activities like coasteering and birdwatching. For anyone looking to enjoy Cornwall's stunning coastline, Carbis Bay is undoubtedly a fantastic holiday destination.
