Description

Situated in the holiday hot-spot of St Ives, The Beach Hut is less than a five minute stroll down the hill to Porthmeor Beach, famous for its surfing and the Tate Gallery. This modern duplex apartment with a private parking space is tucked away from the main thorough fare yet boasts captivating views from the open-plan living room over the rooftops and St Ives iconic coastline towards Godrevy Lighthouse and as far as St Agnes and Newquay on a clear day.

Behind an unassuming exterior is a modern interior that is abundantly proportioned for two. The ground-level private entrance leads to a hall with ample storage for surf boards. Located on the ground-floor is a lovely bedroom equipped with a king size bed and served by the bathroom, also located on the ground floor, with a spiral staircase connecting to the first-floor open-plan living room. The large bay window with coastal views is the focal point of the living room and after dark, couples can cosy-up on the plump sofa next to the contemporary wall-mounted electric fire. Whilst the off-road parking space is a godsend for self-drive guests, the car is not essential with St Ives train station (connecting to main line) nearby.

St Ives offers something for everyone; wandering along the ancient cobbled streets you will find numerous shops, art galleries and award-winning restaurants. The tiny harbour beach is dotted with places to sit and enjoy a coffee or a glass of wine whilst watching the colourful boats bobbing in the quay. There are four white sandy beaches within walking distance including the world-class, award-winning beaches at Porthminster and Porthmeor.

Taking a trip on one of the pleasure boats from the harbour is a great way of exploring the amazing coastline. Alternatively, driving west on the coast road, voted Britain's most scenic stretch of coastline, will transport you to surfy Sennen, legendary Lands End and the incredible Minack Theatre with its dramatic backdrop of sea and sky creating a magical scene – but be sure to book ahead as it is very popular!

Lovely quiet location and parking space a massive bonus plenty of space for our car and next doors car .

The walk to st ives this way takes you past the lovely fisherman’s cottages down cobbled streets . We had a fabulous surprise on arrival as the owners had left us a bottle of bubbly in the fridge as it was our honeymoon x Very thoughtful so we send a massive thank you . We are already planning our next trip to this lovely little getaway .

The Beach Hut is delightful, the walk down to the nearest beach is about 10 minutes but about 20 coming back up the steep hill :-) We happily walked from the Beach Hut to all the beaches and the town centre via various routes.

The bed was really comfy and the shower was great. We really felt at home.

Upon arrival everything was switched off so despite there being timers, the beach hut was cold and we had to contact the Head Caretaker to find out how to turn one of the heaters on - though the issue was promptly dealt with.

Also, it appeared there was no bath mat & the 2 soap dispensers were empty, whereby, if for the latter, replenishment has been discontinued, in our opinion, it would be best to remove them. Other than this, we had no further issues during our stay & have stayed on many previous occasions. We hope to stay again at some point in the future.
