Step Inside

Kres Kintyre is a beautifully built mid-terraced home in an enviable Carbis Bay setting, thoughtfully designed across two floors to create a stylish and effortlessly comfortable coastal retreat.


Its reverse-level layout makes the very most of the light and views, while from the moment you arrive there is a wonderful sense of space and ease, with a welcoming ground floor hallway offering plenty of room to stow everything from beach bags and buckets to waterproofs after coastal adventures.


Two beautifully styled bedrooms are located on the ground floor, each with its own private bathroom, offering comfort, privacy and a boutique feel for guests.


The front-facing bedroom is dressed in calming coastal blues, a subtle nod to the seaside setting just moments from your holiday door, while the second bedroom brings in sunny tones of yellow and mustard, echoing the warmth and glow of summer days in Carbis Bay.


From here, direct access to the garden adds an extra sense of freedom and connection to the outdoors, perfect for stepping out into the fresh air first thing in the morning.


A smaller snug completes the ground floor and provides a wonderful breakout space, with bright beanbags and a Smart TV making it an inviting hideaway for children to play, unwind or enjoy a film after a day on the beach.


At the heart of the house, a central staircase leads to the bright and open first floor, where full-height glass doors and a Juliet balcony fill the space with natural light and draw your eye towards the sea.


This is the true hub of holiday life at Kres Kintyre, a beautifully sociable space in which to sink into the cosy sofas, enjoy the views, gather for pre-dinner drinks or simply appreciate the calm luxury of the generous layout.


The kitchen is fully fitted and thoughtfully equipped with everything needed for relaxed breakfasts, easy suppers and memorable meals shared together at the end of the day.


The third bedroom is also located on the upper floor, where warm shades of pink and maroon create a bold yet cocooning atmosphere, making it a wonderfully restful place to retreat.


A contemporary bathroom completes the first floor, bringing an added touch of comfort and convenience to this beautifully arranged coastal home.

On Your Doorstep

To the rear of Kres Kintyre, a beautifully landscaped terraced garden offers a peaceful outdoor haven, accessed either from the rear ground floor bedroom or directly from the first floor living space.


Step out onto the upper decked terrace, a wonderful suntrap for morning coffee, afternoon reading or a quiet glass of wine as the day begins to soften.


From here, steps lead down to a paved and stone coastal-inspired garden, where a wooden dining table and chairs create the perfect setting for alfresco suppers, while there is plenty of space for your four-legged companion to stretch out and explore.


Set on the seaward side of the valley, Kres Kintyre enjoys the best of Carbis Bay’s peaceful charm, offering a quieter, more tranquil setting while still keeping the energy and delights of St Ives wonderfully close at hand.


The white sands and clear blue waters of Carbis Bay Beach are not to be missed, and from the house you can wander down to the shore for a day of sea swims, sun-soaked relaxation and long, lazy lunches by the water.


The beachside cafe, bar and restaurant provide a stylish and welcoming place to pause, with tempting local dishes and family-friendly dining just moments from the sea.


The coast path is also within easy reach, offering an idyllic route between Carbis Bay and St Ives with breathtaking views along the way, while the charming branch line train whisks you from platform to harbour in just five minutes, making it wonderfully easy to leave the car behind and enjoy the day at a gentler pace.


In St Ives, you will find a tempting choice of places to eat, from handmade pasties and artisan coffee spots to Italian favourites and some of the freshest seafood in Cornwall.


Back at Kres Kintyre, there is the real luxury of being able to return to the calm after the bustle, retreating to your own stylish sanctuary by the sea.


For days spent exploring further afield, follow the coast road into the wild beauty of West Cornwall, where Land’s End, Sennen and the quintessentially Cornish village of Mousehole all offer unforgettable scenery and a true sense of place.


With dog-friendly walks, beaches and hidden gems scattered throughout this spectacular corner of the county, your furry friend can enjoy every bit as much adventure as you do.


Whether you are escaping for a few restorative days or settling in for a longer stay, Kres Kintyre promises a Cornish getaway that feels effortlessly relaxed, beautifully comfortable and wonderfully rejuvenating.
