Accommodation

The Big Beach House is a large colonial-style villa built for a sea captain in 1908. It stands in the finest position with its own private lane and lawns just above the wonderful 3 mile sandy beach of Hayle, and commands wonderful uninterrupted views westerly across St Ives Bay facing the sunset.

It is adjacent to the coast path and the special flora and fauna of Hayle Towans – the extensive sand dunes which back the beautiful beaches. We don’t claim to offer luxury accommodation, but if you’re looking for comfortable seaside accommodation near St Ives this is it.

Creativity happens in every room of the house from the dining room to the conservatory and playroom. The art materials are available for you all weekend or bring your own and take yourself off to be inspired. The accommodation is comfortably furnished allowing creativity to flow!
