When planning a luxury escape to a new destination it can be hard to know where to start. So to be sure that our guests do not miss out on the luxury that five star Cornwall has to offer we are going to make a regular feature listing our top spots in Cornwall for indulging…
Dining can be a controversial topic, with
most visitors to St Ives having their own personal preference, however from
insider knowledge we know that two places come head and shoulders above the competition
when planning a luxury feast in St Ives.
To start with Porthminster Beach Café, with
its stunning location, multi award winning seafood restaurant, combined with
it’s relaxed and friendly atmosphere, provides quintessential St Ives luxury,
that no trip to St Ives would be complete without. The café specialises in
Mediterranean and Asian seafood cuisine with sea view vistas. Our top tips for
this hot spot would be to book early. We can place reservations on your behalf,
or call directly and request a window seat.
Then there is the Porthmeor Beach Café, renowned
for its laid back atmosphere, incredible view across Porthmeor Beach, along
with the occasional chance of catching sightings of dolphins as you dine in the
five star surroundings. Their tapas selection is revolutionary with tastes to
suit all palates, and perfect for whether you fancy a light bite or a hearty
lunch. Our top tip for the Porthmeor Beach Café is to book early and request a
heated outdoor pod for the alfresco dining experience.
For luxury self catering in St Ives
essentials you will need Scarlet Wines, conveniently located on the way in to
St Ives on the roundabouts in Lelant, Scarlet Wines provide a continually
evolving selection of hundreds of wines from around the world, craft beers,
local ciders and first class spirits, served with excellent knowledge to aid in
setting your five star break off in the right way. Or alternatively as a day
trip, why not take the St Ives branch line to Lelant Saltings a short 10 minute
trip where you can take in the St Ives bay’s spectacular scenery by rail, which
conveniently drops you on to Scarlet Wines doorstop.
As a side note if any guests find themselves without mackerel pate or tasty tidbits, Norway Stores located just
along the road from the Sail Lofts five star luxury apartments can be a life
saver when you need just about anything. The friendly team is always on hand to
help you out of a pickle (please excuse the pun)…
The Sail Lofts concierge service is on hand
to aid in restaurant reservations, local knowledge and first class
recommendations from Monday to Saturday every week of the year, so please make
sure to pop by the office located in the central courtyard during your luxury
self catering stay in St Ives, as we are always on hand and happy to help.
