Atlantic View, Hawkes Point
Carbis Bay
Previous
Next
If waking up to a view akin to a John Miller painting is on your holiday wish list, look no further. This modern timber clad holiday home, set within half an acre of grounds, which is shared with just two other lodges and Hawkes Point Cottage, offers guests uninterrupted views across Porthkidney beach towards Hayle Towans and Godrevy Lighthouse from almost every room.
Bring the outside in, by opening up the bi-fold doors in the living area to the large balcony, where you can watch the sunrise with your morning coffee, or cosy up by the woodburner on cooler evenings, whilst still taking in the mesmerising views. The ideal place to relax and unwind, Hawkes Point is picture perfect. Immediately opposite the Lodge runs the Coastal Path which will guide you along two miles of sheltered and incredibly picturesque coastline right into the heart of St Ives. Alongside the garden runs the St Ives Branch line, one of Britain's most beautiful train journeys where the train passes at a snails pace and a wave buys you a toot from the driver! Hawkes Point itself is a renowned angling spot, where sea bass pass on their way in and out of Hayle Estuary. The Lodge forms part of a small group of properties, Hawkes Point Cottage, Dolphin Watch and The Lookout, enabling larger parties to accommodate up to 20 people if required.
Entrance

Sitting/dining/kitchen area
bi-fold doors to decked balcony, woodburner, TV, large comfy sofa, luxury kitchen with washing machine, dishwasher, fridge/freezer, electric oven and hob, dining table and four chairs, sea views.

Additional information
wall mounted electric heaters. Hawkes Point itself is accessed by a steep, single track road and may prove challenging for some vehicles. The parking space is suitable for a small car, although alternative on-road parking can be found on Headland Road. Access to the property is via a winding pathway with steps so may not be suitable for those with limited mobility. Please note that the garden is for the sole use of Hawkes Point Cottage, WiFi, short breaks available.
An amazing 'cabin' which is difficult to fault at all. Location is truly stunning. Parking is the only minor downside ... a small car is definitely an advantage!
Mrs Oliva October 2020
The apartment was lovely, and the view is absolutely stunning, but there is building work going on, also parking is terrible. Owner seems to be wondering around the apartment a lot so not much privacy!

The tradition of Tom Bawcock comes from the feast or famine lifestyle of Cornwall.

One man, Tom Bawcock, dared to take his boat out of the harbour’s safety. He returned with enough fish to make fish pie for the whole village.

Mr Ford Jul 2020
Lived up to our expectations. Fantastic views in an exceptional location. Well worth the price.
Ms. Rinaldi Sep 2019
Excellent situation and amazing views from the property. The large doors and balcony are fantastic for enjoying the scenery. Property description is very accurate. Very clean and comfortable. Beds comfy. Linen and towels spotless. Showers excellent. Key collection and drop off so easy. Approach road and parking not for nervous drivers! WiFi not the best. Would definitely recommend and hope to return one day.
Mrs FROGGATT Jul 2019
Open the bifolding doors and listen to the beautiful sound of the sea. Atlantic View provides the most perfect accommodation to unwind and relax.
Mr Beaumont Jul 2019
Lovely views clean and tidy
Mr Scrivens May 2019
A really well furnished apartment in a fantastic location.
Mr Walters Apr 2019
cosy & comfortable with a fantastic view.
Mrs Davis Apr 2019
We loved our stay at Atlantic View, the views are amazingly and we were very lucky to have a full week of sunshine. The property itself is very comfortable and spacious in a nice secluded spot but within easy reach of St Ives, you can either walk or catch the train from Carbis Bay. We will definitely return.
Ms Spencer Apr 2019
A superb property, first class views from both living and sleeping rooms. Yes the parking is a little tricky and the steps are reasonably steep but for us this was no problem and to stay here was complete pleasure. The walk into st ives is so scenic and in the other direction you can walk to the Dunes and onto the stunning Porthkidney beach. We cannot wait to return. Thankyou for a great early spring break.
Mr Wright Mar 2019
world class views from hawke point we would love to stay here again
Mrs Prince Nov 2018
Atlantic View is beautiful and in a stunning location. The passing local trains are a joy. Great base for exploring the area.
Ms Rothwell Sep 2018
This cottage is amazingly well placed for stunning views over the Atlantic and stretches of secluded sandy beach! The furnishings are of a high standard and all you need is provided! Comfy beds and a secluded location.
Mrs Tsao Aug 2018
Just back from a week in this stunning property with spectacular ocean views. This is the second time we've stayed here and it wont be the last. The property is well equipt and comfortably sleeps a 2+2 family with the benefit of modern appliances and an amazing outlook. The access is a bit tricky though reversing down a long narrow drive but it adds to the remoteness of the property so was not a hassle.
Mr Sumner Jul 2018
Outstanding location to watch the winter storms and waves, from the comfort of the sofa and wood burner
Mr Davies Nov 2017

Mrs Robertson Sep 2016
A most idyllic location with absolutely stunning views! We've been coming to Cornwall for 15 years on and off and have stayed in some of the most beautiful property's. I can quite comfortably say Atlantic View has the best views we've had in those many visits to St Ives and Carbis Bay.
The accommodation has everything you need as a family with kids of any age or even for a small group of friends. Easy layout, good sized rooms and they all benefit from that fantastic view. I will definitely be checking availability here first when I'm next heading to Cornwall.
Mr Akore Aug 2016
Wonder place to stay. Clean and comfortable with amazing views, will be back next year.
Mrs Leppard Aug 2016
Atlantic View is a really comfortable, modern property with stunning sea views. Great location close to some lovely beaches and coastline. Only a short walk to the train station so great easy access to St Ives. We enjoyed our holiday and would definitely return in the future!
