Driftwood

We had a brilliant stay at Driftwood. We felt everything in the house was really good quality (I’ve even come home and ordered the same towels!!) and everything was well equipped. There were plenty of plates, cups etc and utensils - everything had been thought through and the welcome cream tea was delicious. The location of the house was perfect in my opinion. A short walk to Porthkidney Sands which is just beautiful. We can also recommend Mexico Towans beach (very steep sandy hill to climb up and down so be prepared), but gorgeous once you’re down there and dog friendly. The outdoor shower at the house was a god send after being at the beach all day! On the first Saturday, the weather wasn’t too great so we went to Penwith crazy golf which was good fun. We also ventured to Lands End and St Ives which were both great days out too. We took the train from the bottom of Station Hill (Lelant Station) to St Ives for just £2 per person each way. It’s just 10 mins with great beach views along the way! We loved our stay at Driftwood and the kids asked why we could’n’t have stayed longer! Thank you for a great holiday ??...

We enjoyed a weeks stay at Driftwood, the location, 10 mins walk from a beautiful dog friendly sandy beach was great. The house was well equipped, modern and the downstairs was a good size for our family. The train into St Ives was at the end of the road which was perfect but with a limited timetable ( so visits were planned). Highly recommend staying here. ...

Lovely spacious property in excellent location.

A great stay at Driftwood and we were lucky to escape the very high temperatures of the rest of the UK and enjoy the coastal breeze. Lelant was a great location for buses & the picturesque train ride into St Ives. We were doing a couple of sections of the SW coastal path so the logistics worked well. Huge, gorgeous and empty beaches a short walk away and St Ives was near enough for provisions, ice creams, restaurants, pubs, seals.......and some more great beaches! We would return to Driftwood but the next section of the coastal path beckons! ...
