Hidden 2 - Bay House Hot Tub is an amazing reverse-level townhouse in St Ives, Cornwall, enjoying sea views, off-road parking, and a hot tub set on a private terrace. From the moment you arrive, the setting encourages you to slow the pace, with the sound of the coast never far away. The bedrooms sit on the ground floor, offering a calm place to retreat after days spent outdoors. One is a king-size with an en-suite walk-in shower, while the second is a flexible twin that can be arranged as a super-king-size on request, served by a well-appointed family bathroom. Upstairs, the open-plan living space is bright and inviting, with a kitchen and dining area suited to lingering meals and a sitting area that opens onto a balcony, where sea views frame morning coffee and evening drinks alike.
Outside, the terrace becomes a highlight, with the hot tub offering a place to unwind beneath open skies. St Ives itself is a joy to explore, from the narrow streets around Fore Street and the harbour, to independent shops, bakeries, and galleries dotted throughout the town. Spend time wandering Porthminster Beach or Porthmeor Beach, or take in world‑class art at Tate St Ives and the Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden. Nearby Carbis Bay is known for its sweeping sands and coastal walks, while Hayle offers wide beaches and estuary views ideal for walking with dogs. A little further along the coast, Marazion invites a visit to St Michael’s Mount, rising dramatically from the sea.
After days spent exploring, Hidden 2 - Bay House Hot Tub offers a standout base to return to.
Close to the southern edge of Bodmin Moor, the pretty village of St Ive (there are three parts) is characterised by rolling green fields, stone circles, rocky tors and a labyrinth of paths winding through the countryside. Though the community covers a large area, its lovely old church and superb country pub act as the main focal points. Home to the beautifully restored attraction of Emily Hobbhouse's life and legacy, this is a visit that must be on your to do list. There is much to do and see in this fascinating area, with the old market town of Liskeard just 5 miles away and the beaches and harbour of the quaint fishing port of Looe a mere 15 miles through the winding country lanes. In-between there’s fishing and watersports at nearby Siblyback Lake, the Donkey Sanctuary at St Annes Chapel, Cotehele House (NT) and gardens, and the championship golf course at St Mellion Country Club. For superb days out with the children try Dobwalls Theme Park (4 miles from Liskeard) or the world famous Eden Project. Even the maritime city of Plymouth with its historic Barbican docks area, outstanding shops, theatres and restaurants and the National Maritime Museum is only 40 minutes by car.
