About this property
Enjoy a Cornish Spring time at The Lookout - perfect for beaches and countryside
A warm welcome awaits you at The Lookout. Your St Ives home from home! As you walk through the front door, the first thing you see is that panoramic view. Spotlessly clean, the light and ambience of the house engulfs you. You've made it, your holiday has started, it is time to make yourselves at home, relax and enjoy.
The House:
A stylish and beautifully presented town-house, superbly positioned with fantastic views of the sea across St Ives Bay to Godrevy Lighthouse and the North cliffs beyond.
Location:
Fantastic location with beaches, shops, restaurants and galleries all within a 5-15 minute walk. Porthminster Beach being 5 minutes downhill, while Porthmeor Beach, on the other side of St Ives, is more like 15 minutes if you go straight there and are not side tracked by all the lovely views, shops and restaurants!
The House Inside:
Remodelled in 2022 for your comfort and enjoyment, with a light, airy feel. The Lookout is spacious, cosy, comfortable and well equipped.
The House Outside:
There is parking for 2 cars which is a huge bonus in St Ives, while at the front of the house there is a good sized garden with beautiful views for relaxing and al fresco dining.
Home from Home:
The Lookout is not just a holiday let but a home that we want to share. We hope that you enjoy it as much as we do.

About the host
Hosted by Rosie and Simon
We live in The Cotwolds and have 3 grown up children. I grew up in Camborne so Cornwall has always been a big part of our lives and with the family connection we are frequent visitors. The joy of running The Lookout is that we can share our love of Cornwall and St Ives which has always been a special favourite.
The picture is taken on the walk from St Ives to Zennor.

Why they chose this property
We love St Ives because of it's timeless, picturesque quality : spending sun soaked days on the beach, browsing the art galleries, superb pubs and restaurants and fantastic Coastal walks. It is the quintessential English family holiday destination with all its variables in scenery, beaches, coastline and of course, weather!
St Ives is a destination for all the family young and old. It is a romantic place with an extraordinary light which draws artists and artisans from all over the world, You can find peace and a place to party, no-one is left with nothing to do.
From St Ives, you could take a day trip to the Scilly Isles, or the Eden Project or any number of National Trust Houses and Gardens, not least St Michael's Mount or Trencrom, a Neolithic Tor Enclosure from which you can see Godrevy Lighthouse on the North Coast and St Michael's Mount on the South.
It is a destination you get hooked on and will want to return to time and time again. The tide is ever changing, but the beauty of this place is constant and timeless.
Another huge plus is you can either walk to Porthminster Beach or to the centre of town easily within 10 minutes, yet it is tucked up and away from all the bustle of a vibrant and popular seaside destination.
What makes this property unique
In 2022, we completed a huge remodelling project with a newly fitted kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms and sitting room, all done to the highest standard. The house is furnished and decorated not to be like a standard holiday let, but a home we want to share, with home comforts and ascetic touches for your enjoyment.
We love this house because of it's airy yet comfy feel. As soon as you walk in you are drawn through the Hall to the stunning views from the Kitchen. You can further enjoy the views from the sitting room on the first floor and the master bedroom at the top of the house.
There are wooden floors throughout the ground floor which add to the light open feel as soon as you enter the House.
There is plenty of room outside for alfresco dining, barbecues or simply relaxing on the sun terrace.
One of the main benefits of this house it is light and spacious with panoramic views. The fact that it is also within walking distance of beaches, shops and restaurants and has parking is a huge advantage. You can spend the whole week in St Ives, or go out on a day trip without worrying about where to park on your return.
