Excellent location. Beautifully decorated house, felt homely as soon as you enter the hallway. Very clean everywhere, plenty of towels and an extremely well appointed kitchen. Lots of books, DVDs and board games.

Amazing location with a stunning view. The easy access to Carbis Bay Train station, the beach and the main road are perfect for exploring, whilst also having enough comfortable space inside to relax and unwind. Will look forward to booking again the next time we are down there.

The bungalow was fabulous. A real home from home. Couldn't fault it, and would definitely stay again. There was no welcome pack left, which was a bit inconvenient, as we had to leave our bags quickly and pop to the supermarket. But that didn't put us off at all.

Sandbanks was beautiful, a real home from home with everything you need for a comfortable holiday. The log burner and AGA kept the property so cosy. The outside space was also beautiful. Location was great with the beach, train station and bus station all within minutes walk. Ideally placed for some beautiful walks into the busy St Ives.
