We stayed at the salt house for two nights to celebrate my husband's 40th birthday. The room was even better than the website pictures, and the view from the full length windows looking out over carbis bay was truly beautiful. At night we could see the godrevy lighthouse flashing across the sea which was lovely. We were made really welcome... More

After seeing the Salt House in a Ideal Homes magazine, i booked my husband and I in for a two night break. From the photos in the magazine we expected the rooms to be impressive, but I have to say that the photos did not do them justice. Everything about our stay was excellent, from Alan's warm welcome to the... More

Have just returned from a lovely 4 night stay at the Salt House B&B. Both myself and my husband agree that it is the nicest place we have ever stayed in. We were greeted by Alan and later met his wife Sharon, both were genuinely nice people who obviously love what they do. They made our stay extra special with... More

After looking at the photographs on the website we were hooked and just had to book a room for our mini honeymoon. St Ives is a beautiful town and Salt House in Carbis Bay is simply stunning. We stayed in the South Room and the views are amazing across the bay. You are not overlooked at all and even with... More

First trip to St.Ives and wanted to stay somewhere really special. And this place delivers! It has amazing views and real wow factor when you go in. We were greeted by Alan and his two lovely dogs, and were shown to the North Room. The room is so well and highly appointed. Big glass patio doors to decking and sea... More

We received a warm welcome when we arrived, and the room was even better than it looked on the website, but the thing that took our breath away was the view! The room has everything you would need and sky plus TV. The bathroom is superb, the bed very comfortable, minibar with refreshments included, tea making facilities with homemade biscuits.... More

Me and my husband stayed at the Salt House for 2 nights. We booked it for our wedding anniversary. It is an absolutely stunning place. Immaculately clean, fantastic decor (the bathroom in the North room is amazing). The breakfast was more than excellent and the owners are really friendly great people. We will be back.

Well worth a visit, everything possible has been thought of to make your stay a perfect treat. Alan and Sharon have perfected the art of hospitality, a perfect location too, just a ten minute walk to the most stunning beach and marvellous " Porthminster Beach Cafe " , which if you have never been is well worth a visit too....
