The Gannet Inn, hotel in Carbis Bay

Set in a traditional house dating from 1900, The Gannet Inn is located in Carbis Bay, just an 8-minute walk from a sandy beach. It features a bar with a games room and Sky Sports channels.

Perfect choice of breakfast and evening meal. All staff gave very friendly, calm service, and sought to meet our need for less stairs: gave us room on the lower floor when it became available - to cater for my partner's arthritic hip. Enjoyed the view of the sea, Very roomy, extremely comfortable bed, with lots of pillows and cushions, No hassle to leave by 10 am! Many thanks for three very comfortable nights

    Carbis Bay offers a serene coastal retreat with stunning views, pristine sands, and crystal-clear waters. Whether lounging by Bread & Breakfast or indulging in gourmet dining, every moment at Carbis Bay is a true delight. However, the hotel's location may require careful planning for those wishing to explore beyond the resort without a car. Overall, Carbis Bay offers a slice of paradise for those seeking a tranquil escape by the sea!

    We chose the location for a short autumn break and it suited us because of the easy access to St Ives, Mount’s Bay etc. We also wanted to eat at the Ugly Butterfly as we are very keen on Adam Handling’s food.

    Only went to the (lovely) beach once as the hill was so steep to get back up to accommodation near the the main road. Good location for hopping the bus to St Ives and nice views. The Cornish Arms pub is a nice spot for dinner/drinks. Lack of recycling bins.

    Heater provided for room as it was a cold day, books to read was a good touch but all the same author ! DVDs to watch an excellent idea , tea and coffee was easy to make in room. , food was great , unfortunately private cottages at rear had barking dogs all night which totally ruined my stay as they were left outside all night barking , this was not the fault of my hosts, and they said they would report to the agents at rear, I would stay again here however and they accommodated my walk in shower wishes which was great

    NO SEA VIEW. FROM BORDING HOUSE.

    NO SEA VIEW. FROM BORDING HOUSE. CARBIS BAY BEACH IS VERY NICE CLEAN AND TIDY GOOD FACILITIES. DIFFICULT TO ACCSESS BY CAR UNLESS YOU WANT TO PAY £20 PARKING FEE. PARK AT THE TOP AND WALK DOWN, THE WALK BACK IS VERY HARD NOT SUITABLE FOT ELDERLY PEOPLE UNLESS YOU ARE VERY FIT. CARBIS BAY IT SELF IS VERY SMALL AND NOTHING MUCH TO DO ONLY THE BEACH.

    Beautiful white sandy bay with restaurant, bar and toilets.

    Beautiful white sandy bay with restaurant, bar and toilets. Access is via a very steep hill but there is a small car park but costly at £20 a day. Going down to the beach is fine, but going back up is a struggle, especially in this heat wave we’re currently having!!

    Exceptional Breakfast. Freshly made muffins, followed by home made Granola, fresh yoghurt and fruits. That was just for starters!! then the main course, Full English, with all food sourced from local companies. Rowan and Ally were exceptional hosts. They probably have one of the best houses overlooking Carbis Bay. Nothing is too much trouble, there is a communal fridge full of Beer, Cider and Wine. Plenty of routes from the property to surrounding beaches.

    Well appointed property in a peaceful residential cul de sac..hi spec tech and equipment. Well laid out and room for us all to spread out as a family with four grown ‘children’. Liked the utility room for washing and drying beach & walking wear etc. Carbis Bay is a good location for access to lots of local spots and attractions. Local large supermarket only 0.3 mile away and a couple of restaurants within walking distance. We loved The Bean Inn.

    Lovely bungalow in a quiet residential cul-de-sac. Parking at the bungalow and on the street. Location good 15mins walk to Carbis bay (although be aware very steep so not good for the less mobile). Needed a wheelchair at the last moment before arriving which Jayne (the host) went out of her way to arrange. The bungalow was very comfortable and had everything you would possibly need.

    The location as it was close to public transport (bus & train) as well as Carbis Beach. Easier to take public transport into St Ives then find parking!! It had great views of Carbis Bay and there was parking. It didn't have an iron or ironing board so we contacted the owners who delivered both so great service.

    Amazing Staff and wonderfull breakfast options with cereals, fruits, yogurts and different options of pastry. Nice and clean rooms as well :) It is quite a down hill walk to the Carbis Bay Beach, but not far! Also a 40 min walk to St Ives through the SW Costpath.

    Breakfast excellent, location fine as close to lovely Carbis Bay though immediate area rather depressing as among council-house type buildings. Found the interior decor depressing too! Outside patio/garden was great.

    Very cool, authentic, old pub, which I loved. The patrons and staff were very friendly. I felt like I was staying at a neighborhood hangout, not a hotel. The restaurant/pub is wonderful.

    The hotel was along the highway, near Tesco, and also the bus station. There is an access foot path going to the beach for 7-10 mins walk and it just across the hotel.
