The Location
Positioned within the dunes within a stone’s throw of one of Cornwall’s most sweeping expanses of golden sand, High Tide is an appealing detached coastal home, enjoying exceptional peace and privacy within a few minutes’ walk of the beach. High Tide is free from occupancy restrictions, offering complete flexibility as a permanent residence, much-loved second home or continued investment opportunity.
Close to Gwithian, a charming coastal village centred around its historic church and pub, the sweeping beaches of St Ives Bay are within easy reach. The magnificent stretch between Gwithian and Godrevy offers miles of golden sand, dramatic Atlantic views and a choice of renowned surfing breaks.
For those seeking quieter pursuits, the surrounding landscape is no less rewarding. The South West Coast Path winds through the dunes towards Godrevy Lighthouse before continuing along the cliffs, while Hayle Estuary and Lelant Saltings are celebrated for their abundant birdlife. Sheltered within the dunes, High Tide occupies a wonderfully natural setting, rich in wildlife and forming part of a wider dune system recognised for its ecological and scientific significance.
Despite its peaceful position, everyday amenities are readily accessible in Hayle, while the galleries, restaurants and beaches of St Ives are also within easy reach. Regular branch-line services run from St Erth to St Ives, with onward mainline connections to London Paddington. The nearby A30 provides convenient access throughout Cornwall and beyond.
