A day on the beach - one family’s story…

St Ives Beach Sauna
The cornish sea is much more welcoming when you know you can jump into a steaming sauna straight afterwards.
Best view in St Ives
The best view in St Ives needs windows that are delicate to the eye and hardy to the elements. Luckily our architects had it in hand.
You can book both Old and Upper Saltings together for larger families or groups

Just the most magical place in the world. The waves are hypnotic and the vibes impeccable. You're literally on the beach and the shops and local pub are less than 5 minutes away on foot. Can't recommend it enough for a family or friends break

This is the place from an early coffee throughout the day to talk life and the universe. Watching the changing light on the giant day bed hanging over the sand, is completely addictive. As dusk darkens reflections of friends making dinner get stronger in the glass and finally you turn from the sea to the nights festivities. Both living space at Old Saltings and Upper Saltings are the biggest rooms I have had the chance to enjoy. This means there is room for everything to happen all at once without friction. It’s like living in a film.

Beautiful property, with amazing views of the beach - spent a few lovely days on that window seat, watching the storms and sunrises over the sea. You can tell that it's a family property rather than just a business - loads of personal touches and bits of love-and-care which make it a perfect break.
