“The hideaway is a fab property and Hayle is a lovely place and great central place to go to all attractions.”

Jo and Johnathan owners of the hideaway go above and beyond for their guests highly recommend.

The owners Jo and Jonathan are beyond welcoming and helpful from initial booking through to the end of our stay. From the delicious treats, welcoming and informative "tour", concerns that our needs were being met, were more in line with what we'd expect from a high end hotel, rather than a holiday cottage. We holidayed as a couple, with our 2 dogs, and they were made wholly welcome too. Even to having their own named bowls, a nice touch. The Hideaway is superbly equipped, and had everything we could possibly have needed. Well situated too, Phillack is on the edge of scenic dunes and squeaky clean beaches, and there's a great little pub directly opposite. Being well down in the peninsula, you don't have to travel far to find more jaw droppingly beautiful beaches, magical woodland gardens, scenic Cornish towns. Please have us all again. Getting withdrawal symptoms even as I type!

Mrs Chapman, May 2019

Jo was very kind and thoughtful and left us lots of lovely treats. T.he pub across the road was very handy its a shame they don't do food until Easter however there are plenty of other nice places to eat. We loved it and will definitely be returning.

The Hideaway is a beautiful, immaculate and luxuriously comfortable place that felt like home immediately. But Jo made it even more special with so many lovely little touches including lots of edible and drinkable goodies and biscuits, bowls and even a luxury bed for the dog (who settled in from the word go!) We had the most wonderful, relaxing but invigorating holiday in Cornwall and The Hideaway was the perfect base to explore the stunning natural beauty that my favourite place in England is so famous for. I cannot recommend this as a place to stay highly enough. It's been a joyful experience and we absolutely cannot wait to come back again...and again! Thank you Jo!

It's cosy and comfy inside and the secure garden and patio areas are perfect for children or pets. Jo the owner is a lovely lady, she greets you on arrival and explains how things work plus tells you all the info on local places to visit. It's ideally situated for the dunes/ beach and in walking distance into Hayle. Jo leaves a welcome pack with lots of treats, too many to mention! She also spoils visiting dogs with treats, bowls with their name on, bed and towel too! We will be returning next year, it can't come soon enough.

Miss Spelman, November 2018
“We enjoyed everything about this holiday, The Hideaway is one of the best places we have stayed, beautifully furnished with everything you need.”

Welcome goodies were amazing, thank you Jo ❤️ We are planning to visit again and recommend to anyone wanting to see this beautiful part of the world to come here!

Excellent communication throughout. A walk through the flat to show me where everything was and a quick bit of info of where to eat and drink etc. And a quick text to see if there was any problems half way through my break. There was a good welcome pack that included things like bread, milk, eggs and others things the Cornish cream tea was much appreciated after a 6 hour journey. There was also a bottle of red wine which Jo changed in about 10 mins after Jo asked me if I like red wine sadly I don't. The flat itself was clean, warm and cosy. I had at great time at the Hideaway I would book again when i'm next that way.

Her communications prior to arriving and whilst there were fantastic. The house had everything we needed and more. Amazing kitchen had all the mod cons you could want. Really lovely location we visited every beach within a 30 mile radius during the week and were blown away. Only down side which is small, it’s a ground floor flat and the people upstairs were very loud, so sadly we slept less on holiday than at home, For the location, the house and everything inside we cannot fault it ❤️❤️

Miss Namaste, October 2018

Thank you so much for your fantastic feedback regarding your recent stay at The Hideaway. We are sorry to hear about the noise disruption during your stay. As advised by the owner on your arrival, she would have been happy to contact the tenants above had she known they were causing a disruption to your stay; the above tenants are currently in the process of moving which could account for the noise. We hope this did not spoil your visit! Kind regards, Sykes owner relations

She kept in touch leading up to our stay with helpful local advice and directions. On our arrival there was a very generous welcome pack, containing not only essentials but also Prosseco and chocolates. There were even goodies for the Dog, including a comfy bed and food bowls complete with his name on them.( a lovely touch). All in all, this was a very enjoyable stay.

Hayle is a great base so near to loads of places to visit but the beach which is a mile away is gorgeous by day or early evening..The welcome off the owner Jo is exceptional. Think we will be visiting for along time as the area is amazing and the Hideaway is the icing on the cake..keep up the good work Jo and Johnathan !! X

The hideaway is extremely well equipped, clean and comfortable. Perfect size for us, our two children and our dog! We had a fantastic holiday and jo the host was friendly, contactable and went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and to ensure our needs were met. Id highly recommend the hideaway for a tranquil beach escape, even during half term hayle beach felt vast and uncrowded. It’s also very easy to visit st ives for a bit more hustle and bustle.

Mrs Bloxham, May 2018
“The pictures relating to The Hideaway does not to the property any justice, the property far exceeded what we were expecting, it was beautiful, a home away from home, it felt so comfortable and relaxing , everything you could possibly need was there for you and even things you did not know you needed were there for you.”

It was a paradise for dogs and the beach was the icing on the cake for owners and dogs you could not ask for more, and for non dog owners you would never have known a dog had stayed at the property.

Everything was well thought of and catered for. Even our dog had all his needs met. We were met by the owners who were charming and explained everything. The added bonus, of which there were many, was the enclosed charming outside space. We hesitate to enthuse too much as we want to revisit time and time again and it might get fully booked!.

The property

Hayle 1.2 miles.

As the name suggests The Hideaway is tucked away in the charming small village of Phillack amidst the sand dunes which stretch from the town of Hayle approx one mile away and is about half a mile inland from St Ives bay on Cornwall's Atlantic ocean coast.

Accessing The Hideaway down a few steps you enter this delightful ground floor flat into the beautifully furnished and welcoming open plan living room with a contemporary kitchen with dining area and a comfortable sitting area looking out onto the garden.

There are two bedrooms, one either side of the living room with a double and a most unusual twin bedroom both with so much individual character.

The enclosed garden at the rear of the property is ideal for relaxing with the children, friends or dogs after a day on the beach or walking along the stunning coastal path.

Just a few yards away is the famous 18th century Grade 2 listed, Bucket of Blood Inn, a traditional dog friendly low beamed Cornish pub offering a great welcome , good bar food and locally brewed ales.

With Hayle close by and the magical town of St Ives only 9 miles away there will always be plenty to do and see from this cosy base but most will be more than happy to spend time on the local beaches and walking the breathtakingly beautiful coastal path.

A wonderful location for holidays and breaks throughout the year.

About the location

HAYLE

St Ives 7 miles; Penzance 7.5 miles.

Hayle is in the far-flung south western corner of Cornwall and sits on an important RSPB wildlife estuary flowing out to the beautiful St Ives Bay, where visitors can enjoy three miles of golden sandy beaches, walks, history and wildlife. St Ives harbour has its own small fishing fleet and there are plentiful boat trips skippered by locals keen to showcase the best that Cornwall has to offer, whether it be seal watching at Seal Island, a couple of hours' mackerel fishing or a relaxing trip to Godrevy Lighthouse. Hayle has plenty of activities out of the water too; Paradise Park is a wildlife park, home to some spectacular parrots, otters and red pandas. Hayle has a range of shops, restaurants and bars scattered around the estuary and harbour area. There are skittles and karting for the family, and for golfers, one of the best links golf courses in Cornwall is at Lelant, a mile out of Hayle. But the jewel of Hayle is the three miles of golden sandy beach, with fantastic surfing at Gwithian where there is a surf shop, lessons and hire of equipment. For the less energetic there are beach cafes where you can take in the views and watch the children play. As Hayle is centrally located you can easily access many other places by either public transport (there is a train station at Hayle) or driving. St. Ives is a short drive away where you can wander through the narrow streets, visit the art galleries or admire the colourful sub tropical gardens. Within easy reach of Hayle is the Minack Theatre (35 mins), Falmouth Maritime Museum (40 mins), Eden Project (40 mins), St. Michael’s Mount (15 mins) and many other fantastic tourist attractions for dry or wet days.
