What happened to the porthrepta hotel? I had 2 holidays in that hotel in the 1950s with my parents. It was run/owned by a Mr Woodbine and his family. I can't find any details or photos of it anywhere. These holidays are part of my family history. Any information would be very gratefully received.

Thank you

Hi Geoff



This is a bit of a mystery. The hotel was up for sale in an auction in 1950. It was no longer advertised after 1950.



The clues I have found are.

- It had 19 rooms.

- An external garage large enough for four cars.

- It is 50 metres from the beach (on cliffs)

- Direct access to the beach.

- 100 metres from the station.

- Terraced gardens for sunbathing

- View of the island on St Ives and Godrevy Lighthouse.



I think it may have been on the end of Carrack Gladdon on a promontory overlooking the Carbis Bay hotel.



This appears as a private house in a map of 1963 but in 1987 appears as empty land.



The address of the modern buildings which were built here in 2001 is Carbis Beach Apartments Carrack Gladden Carbis Bay Cornwall TR26 2JL



It it is the building I'm thinking of then a picture can be viewed on the francisfrith.com site. Search for "Carbis Bay" first photo.

Thank you so much for your reply David,

The holidays I had with my parents at the Porthrepta were in 1951 and again in 1955.

The memories are clear and enjoyable. I can recall looking out to sea from the dining room, It was always blue in those days and the sun always shone.

I remember the 1951 holiday vividly as I suffered from sun stroke, but it didn't spoil the holiday.

I'm a bit long in the tooth now, but I still enjoy memories from my past.

Thank you very much David for delving into history for me.

Yours very sincerely,

Geoff
