About this property

Nova Cottage is a contemporary, end-of-terrace cottage resting in the village of Carbis Bay, Cornwall. Situated close to a number of amenities, including a beach just a mile away, this inviting abode welcomes up to six guests seeking a wonderful stay in Cornwall, ideal for families and friends. After a day of exploring, the open-plan living area which is finished with porcelanosa Baltimore tiles and Wexford oak flooring will welcome your return; a large sofa is positioned in front of the Smart TV, so you can easily catch up on your favourite shows while those you love gather around you. The kitchen is fitted with Ceaser stone quartz worktops and an assortment of appliances catering to your home-cooking essentials including a Bosch oven, whilst the bar dining area is perfect for relishing a morning coffee or hearty breakfast. Allow the designated chef to cook up a storm as you get ready to tuck into a feast, plan for the days ahead or reflect on your favourite memories so far over a bottle of bubbly. Off the kitchen, find a cloakroom for your convenience, as well as an enclosed courtyard with table and chairs, ideal for relishing in a late-night tipple as the sun sets. There is a choice of three bedrooms; on the first floor lies two king-size rooms, whilst the second floor hosts a twin with en-suite bathroom with bath and hand-held shower, with each bedroom appointed with a wall-mounted Smart TV. There is also an additional second-floor shower room with a walk-in shower, basin and WC where you can complete your morning routine. A short walk will bring you to the South West Coastal Path, leading to St Ives in one direction and Carbis Bay in the other onward to Porthkidney. Further along the coast, you’ll reach the stunning traditional fishing town of St Ives, known for the Tate Gallery and Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden, with many artists from around the world have been inspired by this magical place, whilst there are also many well-established restaurants serving locally caught seafood and fabulous beaches with sea views. When you wish to return to Carbis Bay, hop on the scenic railway, covering the surrounding area and offering access to many delights further afield, such as the famous Eden Project, Pendennis Castle and St Michael’s Mount. Not to be missed is the spectacular Minack Theatre, an open-air theatre perched on the Cornish Cliffs in Porthcurno! With plenty to fill your holiday itinerary and much to discover in Cornwall, a break at Nova Cottage is sure to impress.

Just a short drive from iconic St Ives, the seaside village of Carbis Bay is best-known for its beautiful stretch of pure white sand. With turquoise waters and sheltered conditions, the beach feels almost subtropical and is the perfect spot for a good old-fashioned day by the sea. The beach is also home to the Ocean Sports Centre, so if sunbathing is not really your thing, why not hire a kayak or SUP and get out on the water instead. Or why not treat yourself to a Spa day at the delightful hotel which overlooks the beach and has a fabulous terrace where cocktails can be enjoyed in the Cornish sunshine? Carbis Bay has a small range of local shops and restaurants as well as a fish & chip takeaway and railway branch line. The train journey from Carbis Bay into St Ives is perhaps one of the most beautiful in the country; St Ives additionally makes for a great day out, with plenty of galleries to explore. The quayside town of Hayle also isn't far and is home to activities for the all the family, including a golf and a wildlife sanctuary. The Godrevy Nature Reserve and Penwith Heritage Coast are also within easy reach from Carbis Bay, providing outdoors and watersports plans with even more activities to partake in, including coasteering and birdwatching. Carbis Bay is truly a wonderful holiday location for those wanting to experience Cornwall's breathtaking coastline.
