22nd September 2024:

Great location wonderful view of Carbis Bay and beyond towards Godrevy lighthouse. Buses towards St Ives and Hayle stop outside regularly. Five minutes walk to large supermarket. Very comfortable bed.

Tips:

Lovely walks from apartment e.g. to Lelant along SW coastal path and into St Ives. A visit to Godrevy beach is a must, wonderful beach and views. Godolphin NT near Helston is also worth a visit. The Cornish Arms pub is a short walk away offering basic food. Would recommend The Badger Inn in Levant for food especially after a walk. The Cornish Deli in St Ives do a delicious Newlyn crab salad takeaway.

Although a pleasant place to stay, the facilities were somewhat limited compared to others we have stayed at. The property also felt very damp and this could be felt on clothes and bed linen. Having said this, it was a lovely visit, and the bed was extremely comfortable.

Tips:

La Casita nearby was very good, as well as plenty of places in St. Ives.

I would definitely recommend staying here. The apartment is compact but has everything you need and was spotless. Gail the owner is very pleasant too.

Tips:

I loved that the bus stops are so close to the apartment and there is a Tesco Supermarket just up the road a bit. St Ives is also close by and is walkable.

We stayed 2 nights in the apartment on the 2nd floor. The view had and excellent outlook to the sea and coastline. The stair access is steep and narrow so may not suit less abled guests. The rooms & bed linen were very clean. The kitchen facilities comprised of a microwave oven, 2 place induction hob, fridge, kettle & toaster - all perfectly adequate for us. A TV in the sitting/dining area & the bedroom too was great!

Tips:

Try the Bean Restaurant below the accomodation - we had a takeaway that was excellent.

A comfortable flat. It is very small but had all the basic facilities. Communication and checking in/out was super easy. It would be useful to have some information about local places, good restaurants, Tesco opening times, bus/train services etc. The layout of the flat is a bit awkward especially if one person is in bed early or late as the access to the bathroom means disturbing them.

Tips:

Carbis Bay is stunning and worth visiting. If you are not keen to walk down the very steep hill (or back up) you can catch the train to St Ives and bus back up the road.

Perfect little apartment, easy check in and check out (via key box). Apartment is ideal for any break away. Apartments have all required facilities, bathroom is small but is ideal for what we needed!

Tips:

We walked straight down to st Ives after check in which took around 30 minutes mainly down hill (stopped off at the local pub which served great beer!), then £6 back in a taxi with very little wait! The following morning we walked a very short 10 minute walk to Carbis bay, before continuing the coastal path to St Ives - coastal path is a more challenging route than the road.

Great accommodation with everything you need. Comfy bed and stunning views. Only thing that would have improved our stay would be a sofa that was a bit more comfortable and a different shower. The shower was unpredictable. You could suddenly have freezing cold water or hot and scalding! It took ages to get it right but all of a sudden that could change!

Tips:

We used the bus and train as parking anywhere was a nightmare. The Tesco that is walking distance was excellent. During half term St Ives was mobbed !

This clean, light-filled, airy apartment has a terrific view of the golden curve of beach toward Lelant. It was a well-designed apartment with the minimum needed for two people's comfort (since we were staying for six days, an extra dish towel or other second items would have been helpful). The walk along the footpath down the hill to St. Ives was about a mile and a half. Along the busy road, it seemed to be longer. Having a Tesco grocery within a few blocks was very helpful.

The accommodation is not apartment as advertised but is a studio flat. It is also more than 10 mins away from the beach . The photo on booking.com of seeing the beach through the accommodation window is misleading as you can not see the beach from studio flat. There is also no lights in hallway and when you come at night it’s dark with no lights in hallway. The bed also makes creepy noises . Very expensive prices for this time of the year and you can surely find much better accommodation for the price I paid. There is also restaurant downstairs of this accommodation and front main door remains open all the time which I suppose is unsafe at night and the accommodation main door needs to be locked with key from inside otherwise anyone can open it from outside . Not recommended Service was superb tho .

Clean and comfortable apartment with lovely sea views from both windows. Quiet and relaxing. The apartment was tasteful and had all the amenities I needed for my stay. Communication was friendly and effective with Gail and they were helpful and flexible about my needs.

Tips:

Great place to stay for visiting St Ives and the area. I walked into St Ives down the coastal path and back by bus. Easy to avoid the traffic! Big Tesco five minutes away and local eating options including a very good fish and chips cafe.

Just love it here and keep coming back! Post Covid, the rooms have been converted to self-contained flatlets with cooking facilities and microwave. The decor is simple and tasteful with many lovely touches including original artwork! There is also a pleasant garden with tables outside - should you just want to chill and enjoy the Cornish ambience! Downstairs in the evenings is the well known Bean Inn with its wonderful vegetarian food and lovely helpful staff. All in all a great place to stay and very relaxing - looking forward to my next visit! O

Tips:

The location is ideal. If you are a non-car user, there are bus stops outside taking you down to St Ives with its vibrant art scene including the Tate Gallery and many eateries, or in the opposite direction to such places as Hayle, Marazion (home to that magical castle in sea - St Michael’s Mount),Penzance and Truro - to name but a few destinations. There is a large well stocked Tesco store very nearby and also a brilliant little veggie delicatessen/cafe just a few doors down.

Where to start♥️ the sea view room was as described absolutely beautiful, we could watch the sun rise over Carbis bay, which was a picturesque five minute walk Our room was lovely exceptionally clean and comfortable. The whole house was beautiful with the little restraunt on the bottom floor, a Tesco just a few yards down the road , bus stop close by and a twenty minute walk to St Ives We loved every minute Thank you♥️♥️♥️🌸

Tips:

We decided to have a trip on the open top bus, which cost us £7 each for the day meaning we could get on one bus and on to another. We stayed on and ended up going to Lands end and then on to another bus which took us to Penzance then back home all for £7 The coffees and restaurants in St Ives so many to choose from. Lots of gift shops selling local hand made things. Friendly people beautiful weather and even the King paid a surprise visit!!!!!!!! We will be back as I’ve fallen for Carbis bay♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

Very good views, bright rooms and spotless. It would be better to have the fridge turned on when you expect guests. If not leave the fridge door open as there was a slight smell of unventilated fridge. It was spotlessly clean. Also there was only one dessert spoon with the cutlery. We enjoyed our stay and meal at the Bean Restaurant downstairs. A map would be helpful to find the location

It is a lovely apartment.Clean and bright. A little bit claustrophobic on a hot day. It would benefit greatly from a balcony. It is only 10 minutes from the Carbis Bay beach but be prepared for a steep walk back. Parking is impossible in St Ives. A local bus service is the best way in. Not ideal for a day on the beach but OK for visiting St Ives shops, restaurants and galleries.

Tips:

Art galleries are wonderful. Restetaunts excellent. For a taste experience choose One Fish Street. Beaches beautiful.

Lovely accommodation in a great location. Apartment was lovely and clean. The only downside was the apartment was cold in the morning and evening so my partner and I put the quilt from the bedroom over us in the lounge while watching television at night. Although we did not meet Gail she was kind enough to allow us to have the keys to the apartment at 1pm instead of 3pm as we had arrived early.

Tips:

Lovely pasta restaurant in St Ives that cooked the best fillet steak my partner and I have eaten. The train is great from St Ives, for £4 each my partner and I received an all day ticket and hopped on and off the train visiting lots of lovely places. This was easier than trying to find parking spaces when reaching our destination.

We were given privacy and were able to come and go as we wanted to to explore but we knew that Gail was always available if we needed anything. Would definitely stay again and would reccomend to friends and family. :)

Tips:

The Seafood Cafe in St Ives is a must - excellent and reasonably priced food - lovely atmosphere. If it’s a wet day, we’d recommend the independent cinema - very friendly staff. Wonderful beaches and plenty of beautiful shops to meander around. Then of course you have the coastal path too. A very good walk to Zenor and back if you’re feeling energetic or you can get the bus one way!

We were made to feel very welcome and assured that anything we found missing to just request but for us our needs were met. Lovely clean and light rooms. Pleasantly surprised to find Netflix was included. Definitely would recommend.

Tips:

So many lovely restaurants including Bean Inn there on the premises (award winning vegetarian takeaway and restaurant). Wonderful beaches, St. Michael Mount, Minack open air Theatre, many art shops and exhibitions plus many, many more attractions and places too numerous to mention. Definitely a must on your holiday list

Great location, 30 minutes walk into St Ives; 20 minute walk to Porthminster Beach. Well equipped for short breaks, with hobs for cooking, fridge, crockery etc. TV - ours had a DVD player. Comfortable beds. Vegetarian Restaurant downstairs which we did not eat in but was rated 5th in the top 20 places to eat in St Ives and had lots of clients whilst we were there.

Tips:

If you want to eat out and it is peak season, book places in advance. The area is struggling with a lack of staff and many places were fully booked. Pop out to Hayle for other restaurants etc too but try to book early. Great beaches around: Hayle, Porthminster, St Ives, Carbis Bay, Portreath etc. For shopping, visit Falmouth and Truro - the Lemon Market was very nice!

Fabulous..great apartment, fresh, clean & comfortable. Couldn’t fault it! Location was perfect too..nice & quiet, half a mile to Carbis Bay beach which was beautiful, and the train station not far away too. Tesco’s just a short stroll away also. Staff all very friendly & helpful. Perfect! Would definitely stay again & have already recommended it to others :)

Tips:

Definitely recommend Carbis Bay beach..beautiful sand & clear water, not as busy as other beaches nearby. Would also recommend La Casita restaurant in Carbis Bay, about 15 mins walk from Coast. The Jubilee Lido in Penzance is also well worth a visit, especially a session in the geothermal pool.

The view, accommodation and location was ideal for a family vacation. With grown up children it was perfect staying in the two apartments with the sea view. Either St Ives and Carvis Bay beach are at walking distance and we enjoyed the walks and not having to use the car. Gail, the owner was very nice and helpful and we will remember this holiday as one of our best!

We stayed in Sea Campion and had a fantastic stay - the view of the coastline is stunning. The apartment was clean and well equipped, and it was great to have kitchen facilities. I would definitely recommend staying here!

Tips:

We ate at The Bean Inn restaurant downstairs on two occasions while staying there - the food is delicious and there is a good choice of dishes. I’d definitely recommend booking dinner here when staying at Coast. The accommodation is just a short walk from the Carbis Bay station and there is a large Tesco just a few minutes away. It’s easy to walk into St Ives and you also have the choice of catching a bus or the train into St Ives. It’s a great place to stay and we hope to return in future years.

Great location to get to the town and other areas of Cornwall. No trouble parking outside. Super quiet location so trouble sleeping at night. Rooms were very clean and nicely decorated / furnished. Owner was lovely and always made herself available although we didn’t need anything else throughout our stay. Highly recommended!

Tips:

Walk into town was about half an hour. Definitely easier than driving into town as parking is difficult there. The coastal path is easy to access so you can take the scenic route along the cliffs into town and join up at the beach. A bit hilly on the way back but worth it! We didn’t eat at the Bean Inn (restaurant downstairs) but the food smelled and looked amazing every time we walked by.

We stayed in the 1st floor self-catering apartment. Lovely views, nice decor and furnishings, clean, quiet, huge and amazingly comfortable bed, kitchen facilities great although with the Bean Inn restaurant below doing delicious takeway evening meals we hardly needed it. The location is excellent, easy access to St Ives but away from any crowds, near Carbis Bay. Staff very friendly and helpful, can't fault it and would be very happy to stay there again.

Tips:

During Covid all eating was outdoors or takeway. The Bean Inn food was best quality but most places in St Ives have a vegetarian/vegan option which suited us. Loads of places to visit in that part of Cornwall from Tintagel to the Lizard and Lands End.

Fantastic location and views from our room, and more pleasingly the photos were very true to the B&B: everything was clean and neat. The Bean Inn Restaurant at the bottom of the establishment was wonderful and the best meal I've had for years.

Tips:

St Ives provides so interesting experiences and there are a wealth of restaurants and places to eat. Around Cornwall, you can't go wrong if you visit the coast, especially Kynance Cove and Gwithian Bay.

Tips:

Buses into town during the late afternoon and early evening are good - use them! Walking to and from town along the main road does not take long but clearly during the day the coastal paths are prettier.

Everything you need to enjoy a stay just a few minutes from St Ives beaches. We have been coming to Coast for a few years now and the staff are so welcoming, warm and friendly. As vegans we love being able to eat here at the Bean Inn and start our day with breakfast as well as booking up a couple of evenings.

Tips:

Walk into St Ives along the road for an easy walk but go down to the route along the beaches for a more scenic walk. Try Hayle/Gwithian beach and the National Trust Cafe at Godrevy where vegetarian and vegan food is always on the menu and very good.

I would recommend your house with restrictions.People must know that the room isn´t cleaned during their stay. (I didn´t care.) The menu for breakfast should contain prizes. Garden and terrace looked much better six years ago. The meals were fantastic, but the menu didn´t change in 14 days, so you have to eat things twice.( A change after a week would be ok I think.)With damp rooms and lots of rain a dryer anywhere would be very convenient.

Tips:

The meals are superb. Besides there is a pub nearby where we had good meals too and loved the atmosphere. A Spanish restaurant is also not far away. There are 2 supermarkets round the corner. The next busstop is just infront of the B&B. St Ives is a very interesting town. We loved to stroll around. You can visit lots of good art galleries and the Tate, of course. there are 4 beaches, especially the Porthminster beach is great. Buy a bus ticket for 1 week, that´s quite cheap and you can go everywhere. Take the coast path to St Ives, to Zennor, to Lelant, or walk from Land´s End to Sennen Cove. You will love the beautiful flowers on the way, esppecially at Zennors Head. See the mermaid of Zennor or the embroidered cushions There or in St Uny in Lelant.Say hello to Susan from the Parish cafe in Lelant from Helga.Have lunch or coffee in Olive´s Cafe or the Diggy food room or buy Samosas in the Allotment Deli in Forestreet. Don´t forget to eat one of the famous Cornish Pasties. We liked the craftsmarket in the guildhall and St Ives Museum.If you like to take fotos look at the roofs of St Ives from the Tate!

The food and the vegetarian restaurant are great. Unfortunately, the restaurant was closed most time of our stay so we could only have breakfast and dinner once during the five nights we were there. Our room was not tidied up during our stay which I would have expected as it is regularly done in other b&bs.

Tips:

There are many options for restaurants near. A nice pub is "The Cornish Arms" which seems to be pretty traditional. Carbis Bay beach is fantastic.

Very friendly. Great value room. I didnt have seaview room on main road (but excellent sound proofing throughout never heard traffic) but instead had cheaper side room overlooking delightful garden. Perfectly clean and very pleasantly designed. Gail has everything so well organised - ironing board etc and extra milk coffee etc on landing so you always have what you need. And, her information folder is great - tells you everything you need for stay, clear instructions of how everything works in your room and places to go. Gail is also available at breakfast to enthusiastically give you advice based on her experience and love of the area. I liked being left to my own privacy and not having room serviced everyday unless you want something. I prefer things left as I like them and not having bed made etc. I also liked not having breakfast included. I added a great value breakfast and dinner in the vegetarian restaurant The Bean Inn attached downstairs with local artists work on walls and very friendly waiting staff, then on last morning eating all my lovely St Ives cakes for breakfast rather than having to carry them- it's good to have the option. Will definately be staying again.

Tips:

Bus T2 stops just outside. 3 stops or 20mins walk to St Ives. 20mins bus to Hayle National Express bus stop or you walk the Coast rd to both. Tesco is 2min walk away hidden behind greenery at roundabout.

The restaurant underneath Coast, The Bean Inn, is very tasty and well worth booking, especially if you know you will be arriving tired!

Had another lovely stay here. Six days was not enough and would have loved more if we did not have work to get back to. As always we feel very relaxed and comfy here and love the location close to beaches and St Ives centre.

Tips:

Walk in to St Ives via the coastal path as scenery is stunning! Enjoy a meal at the Bean Inn as they are really helpful with dietary needs and food is very good.

We were not met by the owners on arrival,just the staff of the restaurant who informed us that the breakfast was only available between 8.30 and 9.30. As we needed to leave at 7.30 this was no good for us. The restaurant said the best they could do was to leave a croissant, fruit and a bottle of water. This is not good enough.

Tips:

If you are happy with a vegetarian breakfast at a fixed time it might be ok,but otherwise we wouldn't recommend it.

Thank you Gail, Paula and Katie for a relaxing, cosy stay with you at Coast! I felt totally at home, and the creative veggie breakfasts were great! Hope to see you (and the resident seagull) again another year. :-)

Tips:

I really enjoyed the walk from Carbis Bay beach to Lelant across Porthkidney Sands... great if you like some peace and quiet away from the summer crowds. Otherwise it was very convenient to be able to jump on and off buses with the 7-day bus pass covering the whole of Cornwall.

A wonderful stay at Coast! Lovely room and really appreciated the excellent service and food from Karen and Paula at breakfast time! Especially enjoyed Bertie the cat's company too! Thank you to all ~ would definitely recommend Coast and hope to return again

Tips:

If you don't have your own transport, would recommend getting the bus from St Erth station to Coast B&B as there's a bus just outside and that way you can avoid the walk up the hill from Carbis Bay station with your luggage If you plan on visiting galleries in st Ives would recommend buying an art pass from the information centre there ~ gets you into Barbara Hepworth, Tate St Ives, Leach Potteries, some galleries in Penzance too ~ the pass lasts for a week and you can visit as many times as you want!

I was tucked away in the top floor in an incredibly cozy room with a stunning view of the hillside town and beach. The room was small, but I knew that going in and it was honestly part of the charm. I had everything I needed. The bed was clean and very comfortable, and waking up in the morning to with the sun was brilliant. Upon my arrival we were greeted very warmly, and breakfast every morning was simple but delicious. I mentioned an allergy the first day and they remembered it without me reminding them on subsequent days. Had dinner in the Bean and it was delicious. A great stay. Wifi was slow for me in the top room and occasionally didn't work at all, FYI, but that wasn't catastrophic. Friendly, clean, comfortable. Great stay.

Tips:

Take one of the pubic footpaths down to the beach. It's quite steep, but so beautiful to walk through the lush green and hear the birds and waterfalls. Carbis Bay Beach is beautiful. I went for a long run to the east along the coastal footpath and it was absolutely stunning. The beach just east of Carbis Bay is actually breathtaking. Long and wide and it seems to go on forever. A nice easy walk into St Ives, which is lovely and quaint and filled with good food and drink and shops. If you're a coffee person, go to "Mount Zion" in St Ives. Tiny coffee place in a 16th century shack. It's high on pretension but honestly a delicious cup of coffee. In Carbis Bay I discovered the public footpaths on the top of the town, a lovely place to walk or run, giant rhododendrons everywhere, lots of wildflowers, all leading up to the big stone statue thing at the top of the town. The Cornish Arms, just down the street from the Coast, is a lovely local pub with great beer/cider and food. Felt very welcome and relaxed there. There's a Tesco just down the street, so if you need to stop and get supplies/wine for your day of wandering, it's quite easy.

I enjoyed my stay at Coast! It was nice to see the owners and other guests at Breakfast and get recommendations about where to go and what to see. They always asked about my plans for the day and had tips and suggestions to make my day better.

Tips:

The food at Coast is lovely, both breakfast and dinner at the Bean Inn. Do make sure to book a table for dinner early. If you book it at breakfast on the same day, you may already run out of time slots - this place is popular! There are also lovely places in St. Ives that cater to vegans and vegetarians. I had great meals at The Mex and at Blas Burgerworks.

The room, whilst having a really good view and nicely decorated, was very compact. We were walking the coast path and arrived late and wet. Given the key by a waitress in the restaurant downstairs, not part of the B & B. Radiator didn't work and nowhere to hang wet clothing. The breakfast is semi self service and was fine. It is on a busy road but set back a little which helps. Felt a little impersonal don't think the owners live on sight, there is a telephone number for problems.

We stayed at Coast twice for two consecutive nights first on Thursday 10th August and then on Tuesday 15th. Parking is a great boon in the overcrowded resort of St Ives. Friendly staff,comfortable room. We just lacked a 'hot room' to dry our shoes and clothes when we came back literally 'soaked through' from a walk along the coast that ended in a an hour of pouring rain. Fortunately this was our last day and we could 'dump' our wet things in the car boot.

Tips:

The Bean Inn is to be recommended for its food. Nice long walks along the coast for keen walkers. Parking in and around St Ives is certainly difficult especially if you want to park for just an hour or so. Beware of popular guide-book recommended eating places in St Ives : without a reservation you have a problem !

As first time visitors to St. Ives, we had no idea we were supposed to book a table at The Bean Inn so far in advance. We were so looking forwards to eating there since we were staying at Coast B&B and were disappointed that we couldn't. Would have been great to try lunch and/or dinner by you. When booking a room there, it would be helpful to ask if people intend to eat at the restaurant so that they know they need to schedule in advance.

Tips:

If you want to eat at The Bean Inn restaurant, and are also staying at Coast, make reservations to eat in advance! Or you might be out of luck.

I love that you have a vege restaurant on site that makes delicious food. So yummy and very convenient And that you get a vegetarian breakfast! Unheard of!

Tips:

That walk from Sennen Cove to Lands End taking the open air bus was an absolute highlight. As was walking to town on coastal walk. Think good to suggest people do that at least once. And Barbara Hepworths work. And coffee at the Tate cafe. All things you suggested Gail that I wouldn't have known about or known how to prioritise otherwise. So thank you. We rely on google maps so much now to find places. I would let people know reception might be patchy at Carbis station so download a map to Coast before arrive or book a taxi so know where to go on arrival.

Lovely relaxed place to stay with very friendly hosts and staff. Informative information given about the area and places to visit. Superb breakfast and the restaurant food was very good too. All in all would recommend.

Tips:

There is a 15 min walk down into St Ives or some short walks down to Carbis Bay beach. A little hilly on the way back to both, but there is a very good bus service going into and back from St Ives. It really doesn't take long to go anywhere from this location. So many places to visit in Cornwall.

A pleasant but slightly strange B&B. Staff are around only at breakfast time and were unwelcoming when I arrived late on Sunday night (at the time I had stated) as I should have known it was their night off. They were perfectly friendly in the morning. Rooms are not cleaned in any way during a stay so bin emptying, loo roll additions and clean cups are all self-service. This is made clear in the room guide, but wasn't what I had expected The single bedroom is all bed and very little room. The breakfasts are excellent and you should book an evening meal at the restaurant, which is also very good.

We also had a lovely dinner at the Vegetarian Restaurant - with a nice selection of dishes and wines. Very friendly and welcoming staff who offered suggestions on where to go and how to get there.

Tips:

There are numerous cafes and restaurants in St Ives and we enjoyed a hamburger at Hub which is situated opposite the waterfront, oyster and cheese platters at Beach Bar - the coffee is good here too. We enjoyed walking along the beaches, cobble streets and a visit to Penzance.

My stay at Coast was great. Booking and checking in/out procedures were easy and well explained. All members of staff were efficient and friendly. Breakfast on both days was excellent, with a good choice and quantity available. Compared to a lot of accommodation in St Ives area Coast is extremely well priced. The B & B is very clean and comfortable and a little quirky. The artwork exhibited is interesting and makes a pleasing and relaxed environment.

Tips:

I would recommend the coastal path for walking, views and photography. All the beaches in St Ives/Carbis Bay are beautiful and each a little different from the others.

All staff were very friendly and helpful.

It was very much appreciated. We want our come and stay every year from now on!

Tips:

With only a 10-15 minute walk to Carbis Bay train station, getting in to St Ives by foot (so not worrying about parking) was very good. It also meant you could have a couple of drinks with your meal out and just get the train back. The last train back was 10:30pm so definitely not too early.

Rajpoot the Indian Restaurant in St Ives (located by the cinema) is veg and vegan friendly and a good alternative to the Bean Inn on the nights it doesn't open. You need to book as it is very popular.

Everyone at Coast B&B was very friendly and nothing was too much trouble. I am gluten free but breakfasts were delicious especially the pancakes! My room was the Wild Poppy room, small but big enough for one - in fact very cosy. I was glad to be at the back of the house so no traffic noise from the main road. The location is good with regular buses into St Ives. And the wonderful restuarant on site is a must - fantastic food at a reasonable price, and then you can just pop back upstairs to your room. I was glad that towels weren't changed daily as that has always seemed a waste of precious resources. It also means once if very private. I needed to stay in sometimes as I had a foot injury so the ability to come and go and be there in the day was most welcome. Overall brilliant place to stay and well worth every penny.

Tips:

Its worth investigating different bus companies as one is much cheaper than another. It's a while since July (Nov now) so I can;t recall the name of the cheaper company. They stop in the centre of St Ives whereas the main bus company stops at the main coach stop outside of the town with a short walk in.

Lovely, interesting building with fabulous views over the bays from a great clifftop vantage point.The staff couldn't have been more helpful or attentive. The veggie restaurant on the ground floor was wonderful, and we wished it had been open on all the nights we were there (closed Sun / Mon). But the Saturday night meal was a real treat.

Tips:

Thanks to local friends we discovered a lovely pub in Lelant, a couple of miles away called The Watermill. Delightful old country pub. For great veggie day time eating, try Archie Browns in Penzance and Truro.

A charming B&B with friendly and helpful staff. Great food, comfortable and clean rooms in a perfect location with stunning views. The rooms are cosy and crammed full of beautiful artwork. We loved our stay and we will be back!

Tips:

The in-house restaurant is delicious, as is spinacio's in St Ives (another veggie restaurant). Loads to do within short drives. Beware that Land's End is tacky and expensive, but the views there are lovely still! (You pay for a weeks parking there, so if you are lucky someone might already have gone there and paid for parking who is willing to give up their ticket). The walk to St Ives along the coastal path is beautiful, but for those of you used to flatter locations, be aware your calf muscles will remind you that you did it the next day!

We've been going twice a year, sometimes three times a year, for about 10 years. We wouldn't consider going anywhere else.

Tips:

In St Ives there's the Babara Hepworth museum, the Tate Modern and many galleries dotted along the narrow winding roads. The surrounding coastline and scenery are stunning whether on foot on travelling by car.

We stayed over four nights for our honeymoon, it was superb! We stayed in the Bell Heather room which has a stunning view of the sea and is quite stylishly adorned with beautiful pictures. The en-suite bathroom was very clean and more than spacious enough for the two of us to store our toiletries. We were blown away by how soft the bed linen was, so lovely! The staff were very helpful and friendly, Gail kindly printed the day's weather forecast for us each morning, thank you! My partners favourite thing was the banana pancakes, and I fear that my pancake cooking standards may now have to improve. I enjoyed the full english breakfast, the tomatoes being my favourite item as they were so sweet and perfectly cooked (I don't normally like tomatoes at all!) We would whole-heartedly recommend this charming, warm and beautiful B&B to anyone and are, ourselves, looking forward to visiting again. Thank you Coast!

Tips:

We found it very easy to nip to St Ives via taxi, or via the coastal footpath, which has breathtaking views. It is rather steep in places but well worth the twenty minutes it takes to reach St Ives. We ate at a few places that deserve a mention. The Mex in St Ives was so much fun, the staff were darlings and the food was incredible, there were plenty of veggie options. We also ate at On Shore, along the St Ives waterfront, the views were lovely. It is mostly seafood, however I really enjoyed their vegetable risotto. We stopped at The Balcony, again in St Ives, which has beautiful views of the harbour and a few nice burger options. It's worth noting as it was a little more economically priced. One of our favourite spots was The Rum and Crab shack, quirky and relaxed, we both enjoyed honeymoon mojitos that were unlike any I've ever had before, simply divine! Spots worth visiting are St Micheal's Mount, access is via the causeway from Marazion or by boat (SO MUCH FUN!) It is a bit of a climb to the top, so good footwear is advisable, however, I am rather unfit and made it with plenty of energy to explore the fascinating castle! The Lost Gardens of Helligan were mesmerising, steeped in history and a real love story for regeneration, I'd recommend these world-renowned botanical gardens to anyone who is a romantic or a child at heart! It's worth noting that you can purchase a combined ticket for Helligan and the Eden Project (also incredible) at a bit of a discount. Finally we visited Seal Rock. We went on the Sea Horse and booked through the Sea Ranger. We enjoyed an hour and a half of gorgeous Cornish coastline views and met some beautiful wild seals, nothing could have prepared me for their cuteness. We also spotted some Sunfish. There is still so much that we want to see and do, I'm certain that we'll return soon. To anyone visiting this beautiful part of the country - you will love it!

A very nice B&B located strategically near to St Ives. The best thing about Coast is surely the hearty breakfast that we can order in the morning. The staffs were also friendly and helpful. As we were quite unsure what to see during our 2 days stay in Cornwall, Gail was really helpful and gave suggestions and what we should visit. Stayed at the top floor rooms and it was surely worth the climb. The sea view was amazing. Even my parents who aren't fans of stair climbing were satisfied. Would definitely recommend this B&B for those visiting West Cornwall.

Tips:

Walkable to St Ives, but for those who aren't fans of uphill or long walk can take the train to St Ives from Lelant Sailings. Parking in St Ives during peak season is a nightmare.

We enjoyed our stay. The rooms were quite small but had everything we needed. The only hiccup being no hot water to the basin in the double bedroom, which was only fixed halfway through our stay. The food was great and the staff were friendly and helpful.

Tips:

It was a good 20 minute walk to the town but the bus service was pretty good. Parking in high season - never easy! We were only in St Ives for a few days but would strongly recommend the boat trip to Seal Island (we have kids). With regard to local restaurants, if you're going in high season, definitely book ahead. Please note - the vegetarian restaurant, Spinaccio's, is closed permanently although still advertised in vegetarian publications. The service in Pizza Express wasn't the usual high standard.

Thank you - Most friendly and welcoming. Excellent food and a very splendid outlook from my top floor, very comfortable room.

Tips:

A splendid base from which to explore - especially all of the galleries and gardens. The Cornish Arms was a great place to eat when not eating at the Bean Inn.

All staff really friendly especially Gail at breakfast helping with directions & places to go

Tips:

Walk along the coast path to St Ives rather than the road, much nicer ! Bean Inn lovely for vegan eating, try AlsoThe Mex as they will veganise anything on menu, vegan pasties also available in St Ives !

The bnb is lovely and the service is excellent. We had food in the restaurant and I have to say it was fantastic!! We stayed in the sea champion room the view was beautiful we could see down to carbis bay all round to the lighthouse. Highly recommend

Tips:

Take a walk a long carbis bay. In st ives you have got the Barbara Hepworth museum and sculpture garden. Leech pottery, seals and dolphins trips and loads more.

Excellent breakfast and the bean inn food was also really good. Was nice to not have to worry about it all being veggie! Staff were friendly and helpful too. Bed was very comfortable. I would say you could advertise the the room with 'sea glimpses' not just 'garden view' as we could see the sea sat on the window seat. (Tree Mallow room). Grasping at straws here, but the only problem I would point out is we thought the b&b was closer to st ives than it was. Although in a great location and fairly close it was a good half hour/40 mins walk- up a big hill on the way back. It was fine for us but less able people would need to be more aware of the distance before they set out. Your info pack says something like 'turn left and just down the hill'. Over all a fantastic stay, thank you :-)

Tips:

The Minack theatre is well with a visit! It's £5 cash to park at Lands End. Not having cash we had to drive 5 miles to the nearest place we could get any and head back!

Despite behinds the scenes problems, including the main cook breaking her ankle a few days before the start of our stay, we couldn't have had a nicer time and cannot recommend Coast highly enough.

Tips:

On site restaurant, the Bean Inn, is wonderful, but staff can also make recommendations for eating in St Ives which is only 15 minutes walk away. If traveling by train, you can walk to Coast in ten minutes from Carbis Bay station by using the foot paths by the side of the hotel to the right of the car park.

This is such a lovely relaxed place to stay. Breakfasts were delicious and the beds were so comfy. The people who run it could not have been more helpful. It is eco friendly as well so you can ask for a change of towels if you need them and can change your cups and glasses at breakfast. It feels more like a home from home We had the downstairs room and when the restaurant is open you can hear the diners but this did not bother us at all. I would definitely stay here again. It was lovely.

Tips:

It is a downhill walk into town, and downhill to the beaches so be prepared for an uphill walk back but you can walk along the coast path mostly or Coast is on a bus route. There are pubs and restaurants in the local area within a 10 min walk. Coast have a veggie restaurant on site open 5 evenings and the food is amazing.

Staff were warm and friendly. Although our room appeared clean, it smelled heavily of damp. It was particularly bad by the side of the bed and in the wardrobe. The food and staff in the Bean Inn were superb, but I do think that Coast should let guests know before they book a room that the restaurant is closed 2 days per week. As vegans, the reason we booked in at Coast was because we were hoping to have breakfast and evening meal covered without having to look for somewhere to eat. During our stay, the building alarm kept going off and no staff were around to stop it! Waiting 20 minutes for someone to come and deal with it wasn't very pleasant.

Lovely location, staff very friendly and helpful. Residence is a little basic. Would be nice to have a lounge facility but this not possible due to the excellent restaurant downstairs.

Tips:

Lovely walks,for instance Hells Mouth to Godrevey. Bean Inn restaurant highly recommended. Short hops to both Hayle and St Ives, from Carbis Bay.

Lovely relaxed atmosphere, good room with the bonus of the attached Bean Inn restaurant, serving food that was amazing, all well placed for activities in St Ives and the many nearby beaches. Wonderful!

Tips:

See St Ives, explore its shops, galleries and harbour. Explore the many beaches, take in a sunrise or sunset. Further afield, visit the wonderful Minack Theatre, be inspired.

We received a very friendly welcome. Any problems we had (ie: we weren't working the shower properly!) were dealt with immediately and with good humour. All of the staff were cheerful -- especially at breakfast time -- and very helpful. It was so nice to find the Bean restaurant on the premises, where we were able to enjoy delicious dishes, saving us the hassle of finding other places to eat. We would certainly hope to visit Coast again as it is a lovely place from which to explore the area. Thank you to you all.

A wonderful bed and breakfast with lovely food and service. The views are breathtaking, the rooms are comfortable and the breakfast is superb.

Tips:

Strongly recomend the Bean Restaurant for an evening meal even if you are not vegetarian as the food is imaginative and delicious. Lots of things to do in St Ives - art galleries, the beach, the Tate, etc. Carbis Bay beach is a 10 minute walk away - the sands are white and inviting.

We had a great time at the Coast B&B, the staff was very friendly, helpful and welcoming. The breakfast and the Bean Inn dishes were excellent.

Tips:

The Bean Inn veggi restaurant which is part of Coast is very good, you need to book in advance tho as it is usually booked out for the evening. There is a bus stop in either direction very close to the B&B and a large Tesco is also just 5 min away. We usually walked into St.Ives, there are some nice hidden foot paths along the coast if you want to avoid walking along the main road into St. Ives. We also recommend the Bus Pass which allows you to travel on any bus as many times as you like all over cornwall for 1,2, 3 or 7 days.
