The Gannet Inn Shortlist*
Carbis Bay, Cornwall
Good Hotel Guide Review
In a pretty village that slopes down to the bay, this ‘friendly’ place with a view over the water has ‘the feel of a boutique hotel’. Thick armchairs cluster in comfortable groups, some by the wood-burner, in the spacious bar; in the smart dining areas, guests sit down to hearty grills, classic Cornish fare and Sunday lunches. The bedrooms are ‘lovely’: styled in hues inspired by sand, sea and sky, they range in size from cosy to family friendly. Some have views of spectacular seascapes. A short walk down the hill, guests may use the spa, pool and salon at sister property Carbis Bay Hotel before stepping on to the Blue Flag beach; here, too, is the St Ives branch line for the short train ride into town.
