Perched above stunning Carbis Bay beach, 3 Sandy Lane is a luxury, ground floor apartment within a short walking distance of this popular family friendly beach. Drop your suitcases, grab the surfboards and head down to the azure blue seas and white sands of Carbis Bay. Set between Gwithian Sands and St Ives this coastline is renowned for its clear colours, depicted by numerous artists including John Miller who captured the bright colours in his paintings. There are restaurants, a Spa and beach bars in this resort; swimming is safe and the sand perfect for sandcastles. Just down from 3 Sandy lane is a small railway along which a little train trundles to and from the centre of St Ives. This is probably the most scenic, albeit brief, train journey in Britain. The apartment itself is gorgeous, modern and luxurious; all that you could wish for to make your Cornish holiday memorable. Open-plan living with comfortable furnishings and luxury linens just give it that extra special touch. Enjoy alfresco meals on the balcony with friends and family. The two double bedrooms are comfortable and warm, each with its own television and completed with white cotton bedding and quality duvets. The modern bathroom with its double-ended bath, is the perfect space to relax after a day walking the coastal path or an afternoon on the beach. Nothing has been overlooked, from underfloor central heating, a Blue Ray player in the sitting-room, Netflix on each TV and a Nespresso machine to make the morning coffee. Enjoy a leisurely walk along the coastal path, a game of golf on the nearby Links course or just a day on the beach, returning to this luxurious apartment at the end of the day.

Very clean, great location, easy parking, furnished to a high standard, everything and more for a holiday away from home. Thank you 3 Sandy Lane. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good 30 Jun 2021 #### Holiday in Carbis Bay Been here several times and never disappointed with the accommodation. Always a pleasure to open the door and see the apartment and what it has to offer. Bed very comfortable. Enough storage space for your clothes. Kitchen has everything you need but the table could be a little bigger for a family of four. Settee comfortable for a short while, Bathroom good, but the shower assembly is loose and is in danger of falling off the wall. Could do with a heated mirror as it gets steamed up very quickly. Bathroom towels lovely and thick. Parking on a slope but enough space between cars. Overall a very nice apartment however we will not be returning next year as the price has been increased by 17% even though the current inflation rate is around 2%. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent 22 Oct 2020 #### Beautiful well thought out apartment This apartment is modern and very well equipped even down to good quality hairdryers and the little touches of luxury with fluffy towels and complimentary toiletries. The owners have clearly thought about all you would want and more. It even has an excellent sound system! Having Netflix was an attraction for us although the Internet connection wouldn't allow us to benefit from this. We found it very comfortable and really didn't want to leave. With the washer dryer I could have easily been prepared to stay another week had it not been booked up! ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel and Spa Chester](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chester-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Hotel-And-Spa-Chester.h527788.Hotel-Information) > > [Grosvenor Pulford Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chester-Hotels-Grosvenor-Pulford-Hotel-Spa.h790572.Hotel-Information) > > [Merlins - Saltings Reach, Lelant - Sleeps 10 - Parking for Two Cars - Dog Friendly](https://www.expedia.co.uk/St-Ives-Hotels-Merlins-Saltings-Reach.h38273578.Hotel-Information) > > [5* Detached Stone Cottage with a Private Indoor Pool (Not Shared)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ashbourne-Hotels-5-Detached-Stone-Cottage-With-A-Private-Indoor-Pool.h31752210.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Cheltenham-Cotswolds](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-Doubletree-By-Hilton-Cheltenham.h65899.Hotel-Information) > > [Harbour Hotel Christchurch](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Christchurch-Hotels-The-Christchurch-Harbour-Hotel-And-Spa.h18097.Hotel-Information) > > [De Vere Cotswold Water Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cirencester-Hotels-De-Vere-Cotswold-Water-Park.h1770053.Hotel-Information) > > [Cambridge Belfry Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-Cambridge-Belfry.h1103020.Hotel-Information) > > [Oulton Hall Hotel, Spa & Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Leeds-Hotels-Oulton-Hall-Hotel.h15948.Hotel-Information) > > [The Park Royal Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Warrington-Hotels-The-Park-Royal.h24462.Hotel-Information) > > [Pine Lake Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Carnforth-Hotels-Pine-Lake-Resort.h1928661.Hotel-Information) > > [Last Drop Village Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bolton-Hotels-Last-Drop-Village-Hotel-And-Spa.h9341.Hotel-Information) > > [St Ives Holiday Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/St-Ives-Hotels-St-Ives-Holiday-Village.h17675937.Hotel-Information) > > [ibis budget Manchester Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manchester-Hotels-Ibis-Budget-Manchester-Airport.h75715089.Hotel-Information) > > [Ufford Park Woodbridge Hotel, Golf & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Woodbridge-Hotels-Ufford-Park-Woodbridge-Hotel.h12685.Hotel-Information) > > [Dunston Hall Hotel, Spa and Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Norwich-Hotels-Dunston-Hall.h519081.Hotel-Information) > > [Redworth Hall Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Newton-Aycliffe-Hotels-Redworth-Hall-Hotel.h517266.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal Whitby](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Whitby-Hotels-The-Royal-Hotel.h57917040.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Windsor Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Egham-Hotels-Fairmont-Windsor-Park.h60335617.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Seasons Hotel Hampshire](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hook-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Hotel-Hampshire.h986107.Hotel-Information) > > [Cave Hotel & Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Faversham-Hotels-Cave-Hotel-Golf-Resort.h33410673.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson Hotel Manchester City Centre, A Verified Net Zero Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manchester-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Manchester-City-Centre.h2601411.Hotel-Information) > > [De Vere Tortworth Court](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bristol-Hotels-De-Vere-Tortworth-Court.h570412.Hotel-Information) > > [ORIDA Maidstone Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Maidstone-Hotels-ORIDA-Maidstone-Hotel.h74419166.Hotel-Information) > > [Lakes Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Windermere-Hotels-Lakes-Hotel-And-Spa.h901040.Hotel-Information) > > [Aphrodites Group](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Windermere-Hotels-Aphrodites-Group.h901033.Hotel-Information) > > [The Windermere Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Windermere-Hotels-The-Windermere-Hotel.h13431161.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Garden Inn Silverstone](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Towcester-Hotels-Hilton-Garden-Inn-Silverstone.h48251404.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton Bristol Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bristol-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-Bristol-Airport.h16543862.Hotel-Information) > > [De Vere Wokefield Estate](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Reading-Hotels-De-Vere-Wokefield-Estate.h1044123.Hotel-Information)
