Property code: OC-CRINNI

This gorgeous ground floor apartment is in a gated development on Carlyon Bay close to stunning walks on the South West Coast Path and a hotel with a luxury spa, 18-hole golf course, and excellent restaurant. It’s step-free and perfect for friends or family, with one king-size bedroom and a twin. The beach is just over 300 metres from the door and the nearest pub only 25 metres away.

The flat is in a quiet spot and has super stylish interiors and funky furniture throughout. There’s plenty of space to curl up on the large corner sofa in the lovely, light living/dining area, with a Smart TV, dining area for four, and a door out to the patio and communal garden. If you want to cook while you’re away, the kitchen has everything you’ll need, and a Nespresso coffee machine for your morning cuppa. There’s a spacious king-size bedroom with a handy door outside, a lovely twin room (both bedrooms have good clothes storage) and a bathroom with a bath and shower. Enjoy the communal gardens, which reach round two sides of the property, plus there’s a small private patio with two outdoor chairs right next to the apartment for coffees and sundowners.

Carlyon Bay is home to three sandy beaches (Crinnis, Shorthorn and Polgaver) near St Austell on part of the coast known as the ‘Cornish Riviera’. As well as sunning yourself on the beaches, there’s lots to do nearby. The Lost Gardens of Heligan (8.5 miles away) and the Eden Project (3 miles) are both well worth a visit, as is the historic port of Charlestown (1.5 miles). It’s the filming location of many TV dramas, including Poldark, and has a range of good pubs, independent shops, and restaurants.

We had the most wonderful stay at Crinnis earlier this year with our little family: my husband, our 3-year-old daughter, and me. The location is absolutely spot on, with easy access to beautiful beaches and scenic walks, making it the perfect retreat for both relaxation and adventure.

Every little detail had been thought of, from the high-quality furnishings to the well-equipped kitchen, making our stay effortless and enjoyable.

Hi I just wanted to provide feedback on the apartment in Crinnis we booked from the 4th - 11th August. We were pleasantly surprised with the layout and amenities in the apartment and details such as the soap, dishwasher and washing tablets that normally aren't provided so was an appreciated additional touch. The main negative point wereRead more all the beds, the double and both singles were so uncomfortable we decided to come home a few days early to get a good night's sleep. Given the level of detail of the other decor and furnishings this surprised me as a mid-range mattress isn't that expensive but even my 12-year-old who is very slight, mentioned she could feel the springs in her mattress and therefore didn't sleep well. I thought it best to give you this feedback so you could review and possibly upgrade the beds for future guests as I wouldn't want anyone else to feel the need to cut their family holiday short. I'm happy to provide verbal feedback as well if that helps Hide

The place was lovely, really accessible and nicely laid out. We made use of the garden, with our 3 yr old enjoying running around. And we walked to Carlyon beach multiple times, and over to Charlestown as well. A lovely time!
