About this property
This duplex apartment is situated in the seaside town of St Ives, famous for its art history and galleries as well as the beaches. The Beach Hut is set over two floors with reverse style accommodation. Enter onto the ground floor and into the hallway and then into the bedroom which has a king-size bed. A spiral staircase takes you to the living area which has a captivating view of the sea and coastline towards Godrevy Lighthouse and as far as St Agnes on a clear day, with an open-plan layout home to the kitchen, dining area and sitting area together on the first floor. 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! Perfectly located in one of Cornwall's hot-spot destinations, The Beach Hut makes a fabulous holiday home in St Ives.
