The Old Chapel will quickly become one of your favourite places in Cornwall. As part of a converted stone chapel, the holiday cottage is brimming with character and charm, comfortably sleeping eight people in four bedrooms, three having an ensuite. It's in Halsetown, just outside of St Ives and within strolling distance of the welcoming Halsetown Inn village pub. Families and friends rate accommodation at The Old Chapel highly, appreciating being so close to St Ives and its beautiful beaches while having lots of space and privacy. As a bonus, guests have use of the excellent facilities at the popular Polmanter Touring Park that includes a heated outdoor swimming pool, a tennis court, and a dog exercise field.
Halsetown was designed and built by James Halse in the early 1830s to provide housing for workers in his nearby tin mine. The Old Chapel is one of the original buildings and has been at the heart of the community for almost 200 years. Put on your favourite flip-flops and wander down to Porthminster Beach, where the gentle waves are perfect for paddling. Those with a little more ambition will enjoy surfing at Porthmeor, with lessons and equipment hire available from the St Ives Surf School. Slightly further away but still only around half an hour's walk, Carbis Bay is popular with families for its sheltered waters, cafe and watersports centre. If you're happy to drive or cycle, Marazion and Porthcurno are also beautiful choices.
St Ives is around two miles from the cottage, with a variety of wonderful places to eat, drink and shop. The light and the landscape have attracted generations of artists here, and St Ives boasts world-class galleries and museums that include Tate St Ives, Leach Pottery, and the Barbara Hepworth Museum. Other local attractions include the open-air Minack Theatre, St Michael's Mount, Land's End, Paradise Park, and Flambards. Walkers can join the long-distance St Michael's Way footpath from the village, with the South West Coast Path being a compelling alternative. The Hayle Estuary and Marazion Marshes are around 15 minutes away from bird watching, while the Seal Sanctuary is 40 minutes away in Gweek.
Whether you spent your entire time at the beach within walking distance of the cottage or exploring the beautiful Cornish coast and countryside, your stay at The Old Chapel is one you will love.
