Amazing stay at Lodge 53, Una St. Ives in Carbis Bay. The house was amazing. Unfortunately it is not an enclosed rear garden where the hot tub is located but otherwise couldn’t fault the location or facilities with both the house and the resort.

Beautiful lodge, in a good position and very clean and modern. Spacious bedrooms and good shower and bath faciities. Kitchen was adequately equipped, with fridge and freezer, dishwasher, washer/dryer, microwave, toaster and on arrival there was a nice welcome pack of essentials. Hot tub was lovely!We were a 3-generational group and all found the beds spacious but a little hard, and we would have welcomed another chair in the lounge as it felt squeezed at times even with two little ones.
