“Wonderful accommodation!”

Home from home, cosy and a great location close to the centre.

Home from home, cosy and a great location close to the centre.

- Mr Davis, April 2019
“Did everything it said on the tin, though the parking is a bit tight - it’s ok for a small car.”

- Mr Goulbourn, April 2019
“Loved the location, especially being able to park the car.”

The Beach Hut is is so light and airy and tastefully decorated. Everything and more is provided including fresh flowers. Wonderful to have the town and beaches closeby- just a short walk away. Peaceful location. Have already booked to return next year!

- Miss Bradford, March 2019
“Thanks for great stay.”

Property impeccably clean, thanks to Carol. Were 'spolit' this year with the warmest February on record..... Thank you.

- Mr Roots, February 2019
“Super accommodation, great location, and a very helpful and friendly housekeeper, Carol.”

- Miss Keates, January 2019
“Ideal location perfect for 2 people”

- Mr Dancer, December 2018
“Nice touches like a cream tea and milk being there for me.”

Very welcome after a long journey. Place was clean, well-equipped and tidy. The upside down layout meant that there were beautiful views across Portbmeor beach right across St. Ives bay to Godrevey Lighthouse. I used to live down here so it was nice to be able to take in familiar scenery. Ideal place for a couple. You would not be rattling around in a cavernous space. It was cosy with enough space to be able to stretch out and relax. The only downside for me was the memory form mattress which, although comfortable, got a bit too warm in the night. Quiet area but only a 5 to 10 minute walk into the town centre. It offered great facilities for a very reasonable price.

- Mr Duke, December 2018
“This is a beautiful apartment in a perfect location for St Ives.”

We have chosen this property now twice and would definitely return for a third visit. There is nothing not to love about this apartment!

- Mrs Wybrow, August 2018
“This was our first Sykes holiday and it was great.”

The apartment was accurately described and exactly what we wanted. It was light and airy, lovely and clean with everything we needed plus a welcome pack including some scones and clotted cream. Everything went like clockwork and the housekeeper was excellent and very welcoming. Thank you for a great stay in St Ives.

- Mrs Baker, July 2018
“Lovely clean comfortable apartment in a good location 10 mins walk downhill into st ives centre steep hills coming back up.”

The beach hut was well equipped maybe a small fan and thinner duvet for when it’s to hot . The parking space should maybe state small to medium size car which we had but it was a tight squeeze for us and the car next door , neighbour had to climb out passenger side. Saw lots of people in neighbouring apartments having problems with parking because spaces were small and cars to big to fit in them. While I liked this apartment I would not return to stay in it again , the reason for this is seagulls. Not just a handful but lots and lots of them , they were very noisy from 4am every morning. I know to expect seagulls at the coast but this was extreme you couldn’t have the windows open for the noise . I think St Ives is noted for having a seagull problem.

- Mrs Tompkin, July 2018
“Lovely 'upside down' accommodation with downstairs bedroom and bathroom and views over the rooftops to the sea from the upstairs living, kitchen and dining area.”

Clean, comfortable and well-equipped, The Beach Hut was perfect for our seven night break. It even has a dedicating car-parking space right outside the door. Oh yes and the wi-fi is good too. There's also a well-stocked general store just a couple of dozen metres away. The beach and town are a ten minute walk down the hill with several different routes you can take and it's handy for the coast path. Our favoured route was to stroll down through the beautiful and fascinating Barnoon cemetery to Porthmeor beach and the Tate Gallery. We will definitely stay again. - Jeremy and Hattie Miles

- Mr Miles, April 2018
“Lovely clean, well equipped property.”

Parking space a bonus. Had a lovely week here, easy walking distance to beach and town. Cream tea left on arrival is a wonderful treat.

- Mrs Richards, March 2018
“The Beach Hut was really nice very clean and comfortable with everything you would need for an enjoyable holiday.”

I would certainly book this property again

- Mr Buttimer, March 2018
“Hi the only problem encountered was the address on the directions should read: Rear of 7 Ayr terrace.”

- Mrs Jones, February 2018
“Every thing was catered for at the Beach Hut, clean Tidy close to the sea front ...”

Every thing was catered for at the Beach Hut, clean Tidy close to the sea front overall would without doubt book again and recommend to family and friends

The property

Situated in the holiday hot-spot of St Ives, The Beach Hut is less than a five minute stroll down hill to Porthmeor Beach, famous for its surfing and the Tate Gallery.

This modern duplex apartment with 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.

St Ives offers something for everyone, wandering along the ancient cobbled street 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 colorful 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 - just magical.

Be sure to book ahead as it is very popular! Behind an unassuming exterior, is a modern interior that is abundantly proportioned for two.

The ground level entrance, which is not shared with the adjoining apartment, leads to a hall with ample storage for surf boards.

A double bedroom, equipped with a king size bed and bathroom are also located on the ground floor along 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.
