A really lovely apartment in Carbis Bay. Fabulous sea view from the living room, main bedroom and terrace area. Very well equipped home from home, even has a TV in the main bedroom. Close to the train station, but not so close the train noise would bother you. I would recommend Blue Horizon to anyone and wouldn't hesitate in coming to stay again.

We love this holiday apartment as it’s so comfortable, very easy to get to the beach and railway line for train into St Ives. We stayed here at Blue Horizon in 2019 loved it so much we booked the same week in 2020 before we finished our stay!Unfortunately July Lockdown 2020 meant we couldn’t go but the owners very kindly let us postpone our stay to July 2020! It was amazing, worth waiting for. Great facilities, everything we needed even a nice coffee machine and a large gift basket welcome gift which contained Cornish Coffee& fudge.There’s this little shortcut down the the beach, across some steps cut into the rocks, which was really convenient and we went there every day, back to the house for lunch and back to the beach in the afternoon.Easy to park in the reserved parking bay as well. We love this place and we will definitely be back in the future. It’s perfect for families with children, we were very happy there with our 9 year old boy. He loved the XBox with games too. Thanks
