We spent a wonderful week at Yellow Sands. It's in a perfect location. The apartment is well-equipped, very clean, well-maintained, and spacious. We missed the internet a bit because the wifi was very poor. We recommend this place to anyone who values peace and quiet and enjoys walks on the beach.

Fabulous accommodation with amazing views

Our stay in Apartment 6 on the second floor of this complex was really comfortable. Martin made us feel very welcome. The apartment was spotlessly clean, comfy bed, good shower, dishwasher, dvd and everything you'd need. The best thing was the amazing view from the peaceful balcony...panoramic sea and coastal views helped by the lovely weather. The second half of the apartment is down the hallway and so slightly separate from the main part. This suited our teenage children really well as they appreciated their space and privacy. Their apartment was also equipped with a good shower and there was also a washing machine in there. There was outside hanging space for wet things and a lovely shared garden to sit and eat in. The private lane to the beach was so handy...just a 5 minute walk. All in all a lovely base for our holiday.

Fantastic apartment only minutes from the beach. We stayed here for 5 days and although the weather wasn't brilliant we had a good time. Lot's of nice walks around, beach and coastline. Be sure to visit The Lobster Shed if you like seafood.

Great Location and views! Enjoyed our stay - the apartment was clean and well appointed. Wasn’t clear from the original listing but two bedrooms and a bathroom located down the hall and away from the main part of the apartment but worked for us as we have older kids. Would stay here again. Balcony a nice bonus, sitting outside and watching the waves.

15th Visit to Yellow Sands.

I love Yellow Sands for two reasons, the accommodation and the location. The flats are always very clean and comfortable and contain everything needed for self-catering. The beds are very comfortable. Martin and Debbie are welcoming and helpful. The location is wonderful with easy access to the wonderful Harlyn beach. It is easy to drive to other parts of Cornwall.

Fantastic location and comfortable accommodation

We really enjoyed staying at apartment 6. We couldn’t have asked for a more prefect location. The beach is just a short walk away. We also loved the view from the balcony. Being able to see and hear the sea was great. The apartment was clean and had everything we needed to be comfortable. Martin was friendly and welcoming and swapped microwaves for us really quickly when we found out we couldn’t fit our daughters bottles in the one we had. We would definitely recommend yellow sands apartments and would like to stay there again.

Fantastic location, clean, lots of space.with a wonderful view of the ocean.

Spent Easter there with my wife and two kids. If your looking for somewhere close to the beach with great coastal walks. This is the place. There is also a pub doing food and a little shop five minutes walk. Apartment has a super view of the beach and ocean and is fully equipped. Kids happy as there is WiFi. If all the bedrooms were in one apartment I think we would of given it five stars.

Lovely Apartment in a Wonderful Location

We received a warm welcome on arrival by the owner. He showed us around the apartment which was spotlessly clean and tidy. It was well equipped and in addition to all the standard facilities included a washing machine, dishwasher and freezer. For us the most important attributes were the fantastic sea view across Harlyn Bay round to Trevose Head plus the close proximity of the beach (5 minutes walk - although I guess a little longer if you have small children in tow !). Thoroughly recommended, we will be visiting Yellow Sands again.

Ideal location

Very impressed with the property immediately upon arrival- all looked obviously well maintained and clean, as could be seen by the owners still cleaning when we arrived a tad early. The rooms were well equipped and comfortable as well as in good condition and clean. The location is superb- within a short walk of the beach and of the Harlyn Inn, which is a lot better than it's outside appearance suggests- great food (much better than any pubs in Shrewsbury) and a nice range of beers. The apartments were also easy to find using the Sat-Nav. We all enjoyed our stay and found it to be a perfect base for exploring Cornwall. At night it was too easy just to walk to the pub to get a meal (or breakfast in the mornings), so we ended up having a perfect holiday without needing to cook anything! Would definitely stay again!
