Accessibility:

The apartment is on the ground floor and your car can be parked free of charge just a few yards from our front door.

The private drive down to Fernhill Apartments (off St Ives Road) is quite steep but probably less than 50 yards long (45 metres). There is room for one vehicle at a time. Unless you walk to the beach, via the back garden, this is the only access road. However, once you've parked your car, the walk from the car to the apartment is a few steps which is virtually flat. There are no steps to get into the apartment.

You can reach Carbis Bay Beach from the back garden without touching the road – but beware it is a steep decline and the return walk is not for the faint hearted. Alternatively, you can drive to the beach.

Getting around

The apartment is literally 1/2 mile (12 mins walk) from the Carbis Bay Train station so you can opt to leave your car at the apartment space and take a train return ticket to St Ives. Be warned there is steep hill to climb up from the station to the apartment. To stay on the flat there is a bus service from the main road into St Ives & other destinations. Of course you can drive but parking in high season can be challenging, although there is Park and Ride service from the Leisure Centre in St Ives in the peak season.
