Escape to the stunning Cornish coast and enjoy breathtaking views across St Ives Bay from Cowslip, Skylark and Meadowside, three beautifully renovated holiday properties set on a peaceful 100-acre working farm, once part of the historic Basset family estate. Just two miles from the golden sands and rolling surf of Gwithian Beach, these welcoming retreats offer the perfect base for unforgettable family holidays and coastal adventures.
Tucked away at the end of a quiet farm drive, you’ll enjoy the best of both worlds: tranquil countryside surroundings with easy access to some of Cornwall’s most spectacular beaches and attractions. Spend your days surfing, exploring hidden coves, walking scenic coastal paths, or simply relaxing in the fresh sea air.
The surrounding area is a paradise for walkers, cyclists and nature lovers, with miles of footpaths and bridleways winding through woodland, open countryside, nature reserves and nearby Tehidy Country Park. Golf, horse riding and surf lessons are all available close by, making this an ideal destination for active families and outdoor enthusiasts alike.
Just half a mile away, the dramatic cliffs at Hells Mouth provide unforgettable coastal views, while nearby Godrevy Point offers iconic scenery overlooking the famous lighthouse on Godrevy Island. After a day exploring, enjoy a meal at one of the welcoming village pubs in Gwithian or Portreath, both just two miles away.
For shopping and essentials, the lively town of Hayle is only three miles away, while the picturesque seaside town of St Ives, with its charming harbour, cobbled streets, galleries and the renowned Tate St Ives, is just a 20-minute drive.
With ample parking, undercover storage for bikes and beach equipment, plus stabling and grazing available for horses, these charming farm cottages provide everything you need for a memorable Cornish escape.
There is a shared lawn and barbecue area, which has stock-proof fencing separating it from the adjacent fields. Young children and the elderly will need to take care, as there are several changes of level. Garden furniture provided.
On the edge of St Ives Bay, where the River Hayle meets the sea, lies the old port town of Hayle. Right in front of the town lies three long miles of light golden sand, making a holiday in Hayle an obvious choice for beach lovers. The huge beach starts at the mouth of the estuary, a top spot for bird watching where you can watch ospreys, egret and migrating wading birds. Families flock to Towans beach, flanked by windswept sand dunes. There’s plenty of soft sand for everyone to spread out, so it never feels crowded, and there’s seasonal lifeguard cover. For surfing, bodyboarding, windsurfing and the opportunity to see seals sunbathing, head to Gwithian beach. The beach ends at Godrevy Point, marked by the iconic Godrevy Lighthouse.
Away from the beach, take time to discover Hayle’s fascinating history. From Iron Age settlements and Neolithic tin mining, to Breton exiles, the industrial revolution and World War I explosive factories, there’s certainly lots to learn. Once an important mining port, the town’s two districts, Copperhouse and Foundry, reflect its industrial heritage and you can learn more at the Hayle Heritage Centre.
If you’re planning a family holiday in Hayle, make sure to visit Paradise Park, a theme park and petting zoo, while nothing beats the simple pleasure of feeding the ducks at the Mill Pond with an ice cream in hand. The town is filled with ice cream parlours, pasty shops and waterfront cafes, so you’ll never go hungry. Plan a visit to the spookily named Bucket of Blood pub, which, despite its name, is a friendly traditional inn which welcomes dogs and serves great home cooked food.
One of our favourite things to do while staying in Hayle is to hop on board a train to St Ives. This stretch of railway is widely considered to be the most scenic stretch in Britain, hugging the cliffs of beautiful Carbis Bay. When you arrive, you can explore pretty cobbled streets, art galleries, independent shops and fresh seafood restaurants.
The scenery surrounding Hayle is stunning, and the best way to experience it is on foot. Follow the South West Coast Path to St Ives in the west or Portreath and Hell’s Mouth in the east. Head to nearby St Erth for pretty riverside walks, or climb to the top of Trencrom Hill and soak up the spectacular views that stretch to Mounts Bay and St Michael’s Mount in the south, across Hayle’s beaches and on towards St Agnes Head in the distance.
