Hayle is in the far-flung south western corner of Cornwall and sits on an important rspb wildlife estuary flowing out to the beautiful St Ives Bay, where visitors can enjoy three miles of golden sandy beaches, walks, history and wildlife. Hayle has plenty of activities out of the water too; Paradise Park is a wildlife park, home to some spectacular parrots, otters, and red pandas. Hayle has a range of shops, restaurants and bars scattered around the estuary and harbour area. There are skittles and karting for the family, and for golfers, one of the best links golf courses in Cornwall is at Lelant, a mile out of Hayle. But the jewel of Hayle is the three miles of golden sandy beach, with fantastic surfing at Gwithian where there is a surf shop, lessons and hire of equipment. For the less energetic there are beach cafés where you can take in the views and watch the children play. As Hayle is centrally located you can easily access many other places by either public transport (there is a train station at Hayle) or driving. St. Ives is a short drive away where you can wander through the narrow streets, visit the art galleries, or admire the colourful sub-tropical gardens. St Ives harbour has its own small fishing fleet and there are plentiful boat trips skippered by locals keen to showcase the best that Cornwall has to offer, whether it be seal watching at Seal Island, a couple of hours' mackerel fishing or a relaxing trip to Godrevy Lighthouse. Within easy reach of Hayle is the Minack Theatre, Falmouth Maritime Museum, Eden Project, St. Michael’s Mount and many other fantastic tourist attractions for dry or wet days.

The owner has really thought of everything. Great for families as very spacious. Lovely well equipped kitchen. Nice rear garden with patio area with large table and chairs up some steps and a large lawn on the next tier with bonus gravelled parking area. We enjoyed our 4 night stay here and didnât want to leave! Would highly recommend booking this property, you wonât be disappointed.

The cottage is ideally situated within walking distance to shops, bars and restaurants in Hayle and has all the facilities you need for a comfortable stay. The tiered garden out back was great for sitting out in the sun for meals etc and the private rear secure parking was ideal. 2 minutes walk to the train station for trips to St Ives and other places. Would definitely recommend and will hopefully return in the future.
