Back again to ‘Our Happy Place’ Stayed many times & perfect for us. The views to die for & every comfort that we need.

We stayed at Hawkes Point for 2 weeks, 2 adults and 4 children. We enjoyed the holiday very much. Already in the morning after getting up you could enjoy the beautiful view over Porthkidney Beach with a coffee and watch the surfers.

The cottage is very clean and very well equipped, you have everything you need for a good time. We explored the beautiful places and bays of Cornwell every day from here.

We loved the fantastic views and the lodge was very spacious, peaceful and not overlooked. The local train goes past throughout the day. There are two ways down to the overlooked beach but neither are very practical which explains why not many people seem to be on it. One big downfall is that there is only parking for one car. There were 6 of us with 2 cars and we had to use the station carpark every time to park which was a distance away, and uphill. On arrival there are still a number of steps to climb before you get to the lodge - something to take into consideration.

The Lookout at Hawkes Point is excellent. The views are spectacular. We will certainly be returning!

The views are excellent, close to train to st Ives just a beautiful relaxing place , we had a wedding in the Caribis bay hotel when we were there and it was a 7 min walk , highly reccommend , will come again
The lookout , Hawkes point

Always very happy with the lookout, it’s location is beautiful with easy access to st ives restaurants and close to west cornwall golf course, it’s a tight road down to the lookout but the parking spaces are as big if not bigger than most car parks ????

We had another lovely stay at the lookout, such a good location , theres a few restaurants within reasonable walking distance and the train gives easy access to st ives, the property itself is excellent, only slight negative is there is not a handrail along all the steps that lead to the property, but if I am coming to cornwall I’ll not be looking for anywhere else to stay??

The lookout has a view you can't miss, it is wonderfully beautiful and quiet bar the occasional train going past which comes with the charm. Can easily walk to St Ives or the other end of the train line (we did both). Well equipt and nicely decorated. Parking is tricky, you need a small car and a confident driver with steps up and down to get to the house but as long as you are aware you can work around that. There is parking at the top of hte hill if you have a bigger car. Defo recommend.

Beautiful property and amazing views. Thoroughly enjoyed it. There is only parking for one car, there was never anywhere to park on the headland as builders took up all of the parking and it’s a very steep walk! Imagine that with a food shop and luggage!

What a beautiful property to stay in. It literally had everything we needed & the views were to die for. Lots of lovely little touches on check in, they really have thought of everything. My 2 little boys loved the trains going past & said it was the best holiday they have ever had. Spotlessly clean too. The owners were really lovely & so helpful whilst we were there. We’ve booked for next year & cannot wait to go back!

Lovely place with absolutely stunning views in an excellent location. Lovely walk into st Ives, easily doable with children and the possibility of a pretty train journey back. In driving distance of other lovely places such as the Lizard and st Michaels Mount. Accommodation was clean, warm and well stocked with all necessities. Parking is very tight and you need a small car and confident driver, but more parking available on the main road if you don’t mind the walk up and down the hill. Shop on the main road with good opening hours and a good little tapas restaurant. Quite a few steps up to property. There is a large drop at the side of the property which is unsafe and needs sorting. All in all a really lovely place

Gorgeous location with beautiful views from the property across Port Kidney Sands beach and St Ives Bay.

Beautiful property, amazing owners. Please be aware that if you have any mobility issues there are nearly 30 steps to the property.

The views from here are just stunning and you can certainly spend a long time just staring out to sea and enjoying the tide changes. Great easy access to the coastal path and lots of walks down to the local beaches. However we felt that the property itself was too difficult to access and the parking is very tricky and tight though maybe okay with a very small car. The kitchen at the Lookout is not particularly well equipped if you are intending to cook. The internet is patchy and quite slow. The master en-suite does require some attention - it is small and damp and attracts a lot of mosquitos. The balcony was unfinished during our stay and somewhat unsightly. We visit this area every year but would not return to this particular property despite the amazing views.

We’ve stayed in St Ives and the surrounding area many times over the years and The Look Out is the best located property we’ve stayed in. The combination of views, access to a lovely and often empty beach, a quiet location with a fab tapas local restaurant and easy train access to St Ives makes The Look Out a wonderful place to stay. We will definitely recommend to others.

A fantastic spot. Incredible view, very comfortable house and nice and quiet.Easy to get the train into St Ives and some very quiet beaches on your doorstep. Will definitely come back.

If you want the wow views and lots of living space this is the place for you!!

Absolutely stunning location looking out across the bay and away from hustle and bustle of St ives but close enough if you want to join in. Easy walk to Carbis bay beach. Property itself has everything you need to make life easy.
