St Ives is perfect
Some remedial work needed on door to balcony. A new key safe would make things easier.

Great location 5 minutes walk to Porthmeor Beach. Property maintained in immaculate order with everything we could wish for to ensure our stay was a true home from home experience. Justine was helpful from the moment of booking to help and answer any questions. We will definitely be using Driftwood again for our stays in St Ives.

About the host

Hosted by Justine Jenkins

Host profile image
Myself, husband, 2 children and a cockapoo live & work in Nottinghamshire. I run www.vitalityfitnessholidays.com and my husband is a consultant respiratory physician.

I grew up in Cornwall in Hayle and worked summers in St Ives as a teenager. Most of my extended family still lives locally.

Why they chose this property

I grew up here and we love St Ives and the whole area. I know the area really well and return to visit about 4 times a year.
Having a holiday let has given me a small income which enables me to work part time. This means I can spend a lot of time with my 2 children and support them through school. It also means we can visit our family regularly.

I think the coast here is the most beautiful in the whole of the UK. Simply never ceases to amazing me and we hope one day to be able to live here. It is wonderful to have the choice of 4 beaches all different to visit with gourmet contemporary cafes & restaurants.

Driftwood is easy to find and you can access it without having to go through the town centre. Private parking is right outside, being on a hill gives remarkable views.


What makes this property unique

I look forward to staying at Driftwood I love the way it feels like a house in the sky, beautiful coastal sea views, close to Porthmeor beach & coastal footpath. But very private, quiet & away from crowds. Driftwood is set in a block of 12 maisonettes, 6 at the top, 6 at the bottom. We are up 23 steps.
We have made it open open plan so you can spend time together as a family, we have a lot of DVD's, books and games we can play as a family that include everyone. It is so light and modern & keeping it clean is really easy we have equipped it so you can eat in easily and it has all the mod cons.
The private parking space is so convenient right outside in Ayr Court carpark.
We love the sun terrace & eat outside a lot using the Weber BBQ. As it is south facing and gets very hot so I often have my morning coffee on the sun terrace looking at the beautiful view of St Ives Bay and Hayle beach. Sunset/ sunrise its always beautiful.
Having Ayr field & playground adjacent means the children can just go off & play giving them some independence and us some down time. Our Cockapoo loves the field too . My favourite place is sitting in bed with the large square window open looking at the stars and listen to the waves crashing, then in the morning looking at the sea to see what the weather is doing and thinking about what the day will bring.
