The details
The Beach House was once the studio of Cornwall's much loved artist, John Miller. With the beach quite literally steps away, it would be a great getaway for a small family, or up to five friends who fancy a relaxing stay by the sea.
This home from home has tranquil decor, modern amenities and, of course, that amazing spot by the water's edge. Its location is absolutely heavenly for beach lovers, water sports aficionados and those who simply want to stare at the water or walk the sand by moonlight. And with a brand new hot tub, you've got the perfect place to unwind with a glass of bubbly as the sun begins to set.
The ground floor is open plan with a kitchen area at one end and a cosy living area with a dining table seating six. It's clean, bright and welcoming, and one of the two sofas opens into a double bed. It's a nice space to chill out after a day at the beach, and you can cook a meal to be enjoyed at the dining table or sit outside on the pretty terrace and enjoy the sublime view with a drink.
Upstairs you'll find two bedrooms, one with a double bed and the other with large twins. Both rooms are nicely decorated and comfortable with plenty of storage room and gorgeous views of the bay from the windows.
There's a shower room where you can wash away the sand or freshen up after a good night's sleep with the sound of the water lulling you off. There's also a utility room where you can store wet beach gear.
Beach House is ideal for dog owners as it sits on an amazing dog-friendly beach. The beach is beautiful and dog-friendly all year round, so you can take your canine companion out for lovely walks throughout your stay.
Start the day outside with a coffee or watch the ever changing colours over the iconic Godrevy Lighthouse as did Virginia Wolf when she wrote 'To the Lighthouse'. Lelant village is quiet and tranquil even in the height of summer and it has two pubs and a nice bistro where you can enjoy a local pint and a bite to eat. If you're happy to walk a bit further via the South West Coastal Route, you'll find St Ives is very close and has its own very pretty harbour. There's also the Barbara Hepworth Museum, the former home of the leading Sculptress Barbara Hepworth, and the Tate where you can take in some lovely artwork. There is also the Leach Pottery in St Ives as well!
There's a golf course a few metres away, and this area is popular for kite surfers and kayaking. Feel free to bring a rod and do some bass fishing in the bay, or enjoy a day out at The Eden Project or the Lost Gardens of Heligan, which are all easy to get to by car.

Fantastic place! The views were stunning and to walk onto the beach everyday was absolutely wonderful. Perfect location. My son and dogs loved it! We walked out our gate and onto the coastal path to St Ives as well which was a lovely walk. Also great host. We will hopefully be back again one day!

Great house right on Porthkidney Sands beach. Very dog friendly beach and area but don’t forget your doggie poo bags to keep the beach clean. The hot-tub was great in the evenings and the small garden & terrace were shaded from the wind & sun during the day. When arriving we used Porthkidney Sand car park making note of tide being low, to transfer our luggage. It’s a 10 minute walk to Lelant GWR station to get to St Ives, and then a 10 minute journey into St Ives. We were blessed with great weather too. Thanks to Beachpads for this great UK beach stay.
