Tucked away in the village of Lelant within the Salting's Reach development is The Oyster Catcher! Situated just a two minute amble away from the beautiful Hayle Estuary, a haven for wildlife and a particular favourite with birdwatchers. Sleeping up to eight guests and laid out over three floors, downstairs the open plan living area is bright and welcoming, with a warm, homely atmosphere providing plenty of room for families and friends to relax and enjoy time together, whether curled up on the sofa in front of the Smart TV or enjoying a board game or two! Heading upstairs to the first and second floors, four bedrooms await providing comfortable accommodation for families and couples alike, ensuring everyone has their own peaceful haven at the end of the day.

With private parking for two cars The Oyster Catcher is ideally placed for discovering some of Cornwall's most loved Coastal spots, thanks to its central location, with St Ives, Carbis Bay and Hayle just a short journey away, where you'll find an array of beautiful sandy beaches, restaurants, shops and supermarkets, making it easy to enjoy everything you need for a relaxing stay. For those who enjoy a round of golf the West Cornwall Golf Club is nearby, with its scenic coastal setting, as is the stunning South West Coast Path, offering spectacular rugged coastal walks. Head west towards the picturesque cobbled streets of St Ives, or venture east towards Godrevy, where you may be lucky enough to spot the local seals!
