    “The location and sea views are wonderful but generally we were disappointed with Bay View.”

    We had no Wi-Fi all week which was annoying. There was no welcome pack, not even milk, no hand wash. The fridge dropped forward when you opened the door and dishwasher and sink area had a horrible stagnant smell. Blind missing in front bedroom and bed uncomfortable with poor quality pillows and duvet. There were just six random coat hangers. Looking at the photographs on Sykes website it appears that many items are no longer there and all the little luxury touches have gone. Such a shame as ...

The property

Nestled by the sea in Penzance, Cornwall is this stylish, duplex apartment of Bay View.

Offering reverse-level and open-plan accommodation, whilst also being within easy reach of the Penwith and Lizard Heritage Coasts, Bay View is the perfect retreat for a family of four's seaside break.

The property rests across the road from a handy, public car park, where you can leave your vehicle and soak up the sea breeze as your walk to your new home-from-home.

Venture inside to find two well-appointed double rooms on the ground floor, with one featuring an en-suite cloakroom and both sharing access to a contemporary shower room.

Climb the stairs to find a marvellous, open-plan living space that is bathed in light by its abundance of windows that additionally showcase those expansive, sea views; kick off your shoes and curl up on the spacious corner sofa whilst you watch a show on the TV.

When you're feeling peckish, the kitchen is close by and offers sleek, white units that house a great range of appliances, including a handy dishwasher and washing machine!

Dinner can be enjoyed at the dining table nearby; after dinner, why not enjoy a refreshing drink at the Juliet balcony, where you can really relish those amazing views?

The town of Penzance is not only idyllic but is well equipped for a self-catering break, with shops and pubs situated within a mile from the property; along with a promenade offering quaint walks along the coast, the stunning Morab Gardens, the Jubilee Pool & Cafe, and the fantastic museum of Penlee House.

Be sure to venture down to the harbour and board a ferry to the Isles of Scilly for a memorable outing, with gorgeous beaches dotted around the isles, an array of fantastic historic attractions to explore, including Garrison Walls and several Burial Chambers, as well as stunning gardens to unwind in.

Back on the mainland, be sure to venture across the region to the fabulous resort of St Ives, a place hosting a fascinating art scene, with the Tate and Barbara Hepworth Museum being places of interest, as well as walks along Carn Naun Point and Porthminster Point, and sandy beaches offering ample opportunities to beachcombe and surf!

There is so much more to see without travelling far from the apartment, with the towns of Marazion and Porthleven within easy reach, along with the delights of the South Western Coastal Path, Trengwainton Garden and Trevaylor Woods.

An unforgettable staycation awaits you and the family at Bay View.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £250.

About the location

PENZANCE

St Ives 8 miles. Helicopter to Isles of Scilly - 30 minutes

Penzance hosts Golowan, the Midsummer Carnival, and The Literary Festival. There are also The Exchange, Newlyn and Penlee Art Galleries. One of Cornwall’s most popular holiday areas is the spectacular sweep of Mount’s Bay, from the cliffside fishing village of Mousehole through Penzance and around to beautiful Marazion, the coastline hides a wealth of sandy beaches, rocky coves as well as winding village streets and other places to visit and explore. Connected by a causeway to the shore at Marazion is the National Trust’s stunningly beautiful St Michael’s Mount with its hilltop castle and Mediterranean gardens. Walk across at low water and take one of the ferry boats back when the tide is up. Penzance with its winding streets, shops, clubs, restaurants and harbour is a must as it is the jumping-off point for day trips to the Isles of Scilly as well as being the harbor. The South West Coast Path passing through Penzance winds its way along the clifftops towards Land’s End. On the way, stop off for a coffee and a rest at beautiful Lamorna Cove, explore the open air Minack Theatre and marvel at the cliffs as you approach Gwennap Head. A stunning walk for those seeking solitude, exercise and some of the UK’s best coastal scenery. Penzance is the perfect holiday base. Ideally placed for exploring this land of Celtic myth and legend and with enough to do and see in the immediate area to keep all the family occupied.
