Views from the lookout

Atlantic Lookout is a stylish and well presented modern, three-storey townhouse, superbly positioned on a hillside, commanding panoramic views over St. Ives Bay.

Situated above Porthminster Beach, the house is no more than a 4-minute walk from the Porthminster Beach Cafe and child-friendly Porthminster Beach (awarded recognition by Surrey University as the Third Best Beach in the World).

It has been constructed to take maximum advantage of the views of St Ives harbour and across the Bay to Godrevy Lighthouse and the North Cornish cliffs beyond.

From many rooms within the house, your gaze will be drawn through the picture windows and patio doors to the magnificent views that spread out before you from the terrace and beyond.

St Ives Self-catering Accommodation

Internally, the property has a light, airy, contemporary feel. It offers well-appointed and spacious, flexible accommodation arranged over three floors comprising in brief: large reception hallway; cloakroom; ground floor bedroom with ensuite shower room; kitchen/dining room enjoying fine sea and coastal views through French doors leading to the garden area.

The first floor comprises landing, two further bedrooms (one with balcony off French doors) and a bathroom, whilst on the second floor there is a splendid triple-aspect lounge with end-gable window enjoying views of both the harbour and island, whilst French doors lead you onto a balcony with spectacular views over St Ives Bay to Godrevy Lighthouse and beyond.

There is an enclosed garden, with raised decking area: a great place from which to enjoy al-fresco dining.

Embrace the Atlantic, and let the wind fill your sails!

St Ives

Whether you're an adrenalin-junkie or a culture-vulture, St Ives offers both a sense of escape, and of inspiration.

Food for your soul: surrounded by water on three sides, the views are stunning, whatever the weather. You would be forgiven for mistaking our award-winning white sandy beaches, gently lapped by clear azure-blue waters, for the Caribbean. Because of its warmer climate, this resort has achieved all-year-round- popularity, making it an ideal base for a late-summer or early-spring holiday.

Food for taste buds: St Ives offers some excellent eating experiences. As you might expect, a number of Michelin-starred local restaurants place a firm emphasis on high quality, locally sourced ingredients, with menus changing to reflect the seasons. For example, local fishermen supply crab and lobster in season; other fish is provided from Matthew and Son in St Ives. You can always find somewhere to indulge in a sybaritic treat, to enjoy local food in stunning settings.

Food for your creative senses: home of the world-famous Tate Gallery, and of the Barbara Hepworth Museum, St Ives is now synonymous with art and fishing. A thriving artists' community still exists and provides a backdrop. In the tangle of harbourside alleyways, you can find a knot of local galleries and artists workshops. In September, you can let your creative juices flow and be fed by a melee of creative arts at the St Ives September Festival.

Locally, when you've fed your senses on the creative scene, you can wander along the rugged coastal path to Zennor, bird-watch at the protected Hayle Estuary, or wander further afield to explore the Heritage coastline; The Eden Project, or enjoy a wonderful helicopter ride to the Isles of Scilly.

Go on, feast your senses!
