Comfortable apartment

A very well equipped apartment in a prime position overlooking Carbis Bay. Very clean and tidy with everything you could want for a week relaxing by the coast. Parking is easy onsite ant the block of apartments are well maintained. Some feedback from our stay: The beds are small doubles and if you are used to a King Size you will struggle. Not enough coat hangers for a full week's stay for 2 people. Lack of privacy in the main bedroom as you can see in from the road. No wall mirror in the en-suite. The remote control in the lounge doesn't work properly.
