As much as i donât want others to find out about this place, it was truly excellent. The place was beautifully appointed, views were breathtaking, and location was perfect.To top it off, Rosie was very communicative and informative. We are very grateful for such a delightful experience.
We absolutely loved our time at The Lookout. Itâs a beautiful house - bright, spacious and impeccably clean, with quality furniture and comfortable beds. Rosie has thought of everything you could possibly need! We enjoyed the location, out of the hustle and bustle of the main centre while still close enough to stroll into town daily. The deck area was a perfect spot to enjoy a wine and the view. Thank you Rosie and Simon for a wonderful week , we hope to visit again some day!
The Lookout was fantastic. Plenty of space for us and everything we needed within the house. The walk down into St Ives itself was very quick and easy (the walk back up slightly more hard work!!). We would definitely come back to the Lookout!
We are absolutely enthusiastic. What a great place on earth. The house is wonderful, full of little charming details, nothing is missing. The beds are so comfortable, the view is oberwhelming and St. Ives an absolutely nice town. This is an unrestrictey recommendation!!!!
The lookout is a fantastic holiday home with wonderful outdoor areas to sit and gaze at the beautiful coastline of St Ives. When we arrived it was spotlessly clean and had everything you could possibly need and all fantastic quality. Would definitely stay again.
This place was great! It was clean and spacious with a great view. The walk to town was only 10 minutes and 5 to the beach. It was the perfect place not only to explore St. Ives, but all of Cornwall.
Brilliant location and a really clean and look after property. We went with in-laws, children and everyone else and within a day we were calling it home, can not recommend enough.
This property had everything you will need to make your stay easy and enjoyable. Fantastic sea views and beautiful well thought out rooms and furnishings and all the little extras and complimentary additions make your stay very special.
My family and I had an amazing stay at The Lookout! The house was extremely clean, very well maintained and equipped with everything we needed to make us feel right at home. Location is great, only a short walk to the beach and into town. Amazing views and we loved the deck area. Rosie and Simon were amazing, best hosts! We already can't wait to come back.
We had a brilliant week at the house. Everything we needed as a family and more. Good communication. Location is ideal for trips all over the peninsula.
We had a wonderful stay at The Lookout. The views from this beautiful home set the scene for a relaxing and comfortable stay.
We visited St Ives with another couple, each of us ex Hotel owners, so our standards are high and The Lookout did not disappoint.
We look forward to returning!
We all enjoyed our stay at the Lookout, great location, only a 10 minute walk to the town, the 3 boys loved the table football up in the top room, great touch from Rosie to leave a card with flowers for my girlfriends 40th birthday, information we received about check in and where to find keys nice and clear.
We would definitely stay again and Iâm sure we will be looking to book next year!!
We highly recommend The Lookout. Itâs a beautiful property with amazing views on all three floors and just a short walk to the beach and town.
Everything you need for a perfect holiday!
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.
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.
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.
