Hawkes Point View is situated in its own private garden crammed with palm trees, exotic plants, herbs and colourful fragrant flowers (feel free to use any of the herbs!). The chalet affords spectacular views of St Ives Bay, Hayle estuary and surrounding countryside - as one visitor wrote "A view to die for."

Hayle is situated just 4 miles from St Ives with its many fine restaurants, shops and the renowned Tate gallery. There is a fab scenic 'Park and Ride' train journey to St Ives which travels alongside the coastal path (the train can be seen from the chalet) which all ages can enjoy.  There is so much to do and see in Cornwall for everyone - Museums, Art galleries, the amazing Eden Project, surfing, golf, cycling and walking the beautiful coastal path.  For the less energetic amongst us, Hayle beach stretches for 3 miles up to Gwithian for a traditional family bucket-and-spade type of holiday!

Comprises of 3 bedrooms: 2 double and 1 child size room (bed length 170 cms). The large gabled kitchen/dining room is a lovely character-filled area including full-size cooker and fridge-freezer (50/50), washing machine, radio/CD player with a selection of CDs and iPod dock. Very light and airy triple-aspect sitting room is surrounded by a traditional wooden veranda to enjoy the magnificent views and sunsets. Two and three seater comfy sofas, large Lloyd loom chair (the best seat in the house!) and book lined walls. This room has flat screen TV with integral DVD player and a selection of DVDs. Children love the smallest bedroom with it's toys, games and places to hide!

The shower room incorporates corner shower cubicle with wash hand basin, w.c, and heated towel rail. All rooms have heating and the chalet is fully insulated and double glazed. Electricity is fed by a very economical £1 coin meter. Private parking is situated close to the chalet. Fresh flowers [sometimes from our garden at home or allotment) and milk on arrival for a wecome cuppa!
