Summary

Feedback highlights an ideal location with beautiful views and spacious accommodations suitable for families, but notes that maintenance issues, cleanliness of the property, and the need for carpet and bathroom upgrades detracted from the experience. Some guests reported problems with amenities and service.

The property

Lanyon sits in a prime elevated position overlooking beautiful, secluded Porthkidney Beach, Hayle estuary, all of 7 mile beach and Godrevy lighthouse in Carbis Bay, Cornwall. This well-styled, detached house boasts four bedrooms for eight guests, with a large garden, hot tub and superb seaward views. Park on the driveway and enter your new abode to find the welcoming interior, a spacious contemporary retreat ideal for families and friends. From the hallway, the large sitting room boasts an open fire for those relaxing evenings, whilst the front views capture the beach and seascape around beautiful Carbis Bay. The large, sophisticated kitchen is well equipped for cookery creations, with a breakfast bar plus access to the rear garden. Eat in the separate dining room and recount the day's adventures, savouring precious family memories being built. Four superbly presented bedrooms await, with pristine linens and sumptuous throws; choose from a super-king, a king size tempurpedic bed, king size (zip and link) and twin beds. The twin room is suited for both adults and children, and there are toys for the little ones. The house has a fully equipped children's play room with a large play tent, play kitchen, car race ramp, puzzles, books, wooden tool table and play set, learning activities, outdoor toys like footballs and tennis rackets and countless toys from diggers and tractors to magnetic tiles, soft toys and blocks. There is also a full library and games for the adults in the house.

With extra TVs and three bedrooms with sea views, all your guests will be catered for, serviced by two smart bathrooms. The large garden at the rear and side is enclosed, with a lawn and patio with garden furniture for sunshine meals, and a handy outdoor shower, perfect after a sandy day at the beach. Pop the bubbly or sip a cup of tea with views from the garden, or enjoy the wood-fired hot tub, perfect for two against the ocean backdrop. The golden sands of Carbis Bay Beach are within a short downhill stroll. This Blue Flag-awarded beach is super sandy for leisurely walks along the shore with your four-legged friend, with distant views to Godrevy lighthouse.

Enjoy swimming and watersports in the azure waters or discover the coastal path around the bay. Locally, you’ll find restaurants and eateries such as La Casita and The Gannet close by. Within a short walk, you’ll also find the food shop for any provisions you might need during your stay. Head into the hot spot of St Ives and spend a day at one of the four stunning beaches, for surfing and sandcastles. Harbour Beach is dotted with little boats, where you can take a fishing or leisure trip. The characterful lanes have an abundance of independent shops and galleries, cafes for Cornish Cream Teas, eateries offering locally freshly caught seafood and international cuisine restaurants. Home to The Tate Gallery and Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden, there is something for everyone. A little further afield, take a drive to St Michaels Mount in Marazion, Pendennis Castle in Falmouth or rugged Lands End. Lanyon is a truly special holiday retreat you’ll want to return to again and again.
