St Ives is a pretty special place, and many
of the guests at our luxury accommodation come back time and time again. If you
caught up with our Guide to St Ives Beaches you’ll know we have plenty of
beautiful beaches right here in St Ives. However, if you’re returning for a
second visit there’s a few further afield that we think are worth the trip...
Porthcurno
Porthcurno is one of the most breathtaking
beaches in all of Cornwall. Just an hours drive from our holiday cottages it’s the
perfect opportunity to pack a picnic and your bucket and spades and soak in the
sun all day long. The water is so incredibly clear and bright turquoise that it
looks more like the Caribbean than Cornwall. The beach is a family friendly but
it’s a bit of a walk from the car park so it’s not the best for prams or wheelchairs.

What makes Kynance Cove so unique is that
it only really exists at low tide. As the tide goes out it reveals all sorts of
caves, coves and hidden treasures which changes slightly every time you go,
ideal for those with a more adventurous spirit. It’s is an hour drive from the
apartments and a lengthy walk from the car park to the beach, so it’s not the
easiest to get to but worth it for it’s unique beauty. Don’t forget to check
the tide times before you go!

Sennen sits right on the Atlantic Ocean
making it a surfers paradise. There’s a surf school right on the beach with
board hire and lessons available to all and with almost a mile of golden white
sand there’s plenty of room for sunbathing and games. It’s only a 45 minute
drive from The Sail Loft's luxury holiday apartments so it’s definitely worth a visit.
