Overview
Property code: OC-LMORNA

It you’re planning a special get-together of friends or family, this property in Carbis Bay is an excellent choice. Set 1 mile east of the town, this prime part of St Ives has its own beach set just half a mile from the cottage with calm turquoise waters surrounded by subtropical plants, water sports equipment for rent, and plenty of cafes and restaurants nearby. St Ives itself is one of Cornwall's top destinations and the quality of the light has been attracting painters, sculptors and ceramists for decades. Lose yourself for hours in the cobbled streets crammed with gift and craft shops, art galleries, top-notch restaurants and welcoming local pubs or head to one of no less than four fabulous local beaches, which between them offer miles of golden sands and rock pools to explore.

After a busy day out and about, return to your impressive base, which has been designed to maximise the natural light as much as possible with the use of skylights. All four bedrooms are on the ground floor. One has a super-king-size bed an en-suite bathroom with a shower cubicle and Bluetooth-enabled mirror and another two have king-size beds and en-suite bathrooms with showers; one also has a Bluetooth-enabled mirror and a door leading onto the rear garden terrace. The last bedroom has twin beds and a door leading to the garden terrace; a utility room also leads out to the terrace and includes a handy drinks fridge. A family bathroom features a rolltop bath with a hand-held shower, and all the bathrooms have underfloor heating. Head up to the first floor for the stylish, open-plan living space comprising of a kitchen, living area and dining areas with seating for eight people as well as a small furnished balcony with views to Godrevy Lighthouse and Hayle Beach.

The fully enclosed garden to the rear includes a covered terrace for formal dining with mood lighting and outdoor heaters, and a separate decking area with more relaxed sofa seating. An outdoor shower is ideal for washing off sand after time spent at the beach.

We stayed here based on all the positive reviews. The upstairs living and kitchen area are 5 stars and the balcony are fabulous . It also has a lovely outdoor area despite having no Bbq which seemed strange. There is also a bus stop outside the door that takes you directly into St ives. However what lets it down is the downstairs sleeping area Read more which need some TLC . Some bedrooms have no shutters or blackouts blinds just a thin net curtain which make it difficult for families with young children to block out the light. If the same investment was put in the downstairs area as the upstairs this would be a 5 star property and worth staying again. Hide

We loved our stay at Lamorna. The Cornwall weather was very kind to us, allowing us to make full use of the garden area. The location is great, the space is ample, and the decor is lovely. The view is stunning, especially as the sunset hits just right from the balcony. My husband was thrilled to have Sky for watching football and golf.

The cleanliness was not acceptable. We shuffled a few things around on arrival and had to hover immediately. The ground floors was just filthy. There was also chewing gum stuck to a mirror.

The hob is really temperamental and just would not turn on at times and also just turned off on numerous occasions for no reason.
