It’s family and pet-friendly, sits in a large enclosed landscaped garden with hot tub, yet is only a five-minute walk to the award-winning Blue Flag Carbis Bay Beach and the St Ives Branch line.

Bayside offers five comfortable bedrooms, four with sea views, and sleeps up to ten adults. The master bedroom and second bedroom have their own generous private sea-view terraces and the three bathrooms, with their own unique styles, are a particular highlight.

The lounge is located on the top floor and benefits from an exceptional panoramic sea view. The kitchen / diner sits just below and combines the same view with huge patio doors and full-width balcony.

When you want to escape, two floors down in the basement is a TV / games room, ideal for teenagers. The basement is self-contained with bedroom, shower room, and garden kitchen equipped with fridge, dishwasher and outdoor crockery.

Bedrooms and bathrooms are found in the middle of the house spread over three half floors.
