About this property

Luxury beachfront chalet with breathtaking views

Luxury contemporary beach chalet with stunning uninterrupted sea views. The chalet is exceptionally well equipped and has underfloor heating throughout and log burner for comfort. Ty Bach Twt is set right by the amazing beach at Gwithian and has direct access to the beach, wild sand dunes and the Cornish coast path.
The chalet sleeps six comfortably, ideally suited for one family and grandparents, but can accommodate eight in its three bedrooms for shorter periods (two are queen-sized doubles, one en suite — and there’s a fun bunk room for four smaller ones). There’s a wood burning stove, a gas-fired Weber barbecue, two hot and cold après-surf outdoor showers with a privacy screen, a large and luxurious open-plan living space… and the best bit, the bifold doors opening onto the decked terrace looking out over sand-dunes to the sweep of St Ives Bay and Godrevy lighthouse.

Inside Ty Bach Twt
Step into Ty Bach Twt and throw open the bifold doors. You’ll be looking over sand dunes to St Ives Bay with a 180° panoramic view of the sea. In the beach house is a large open plan living, dining and kitchen area, with light flooding in from all directions. There is a comfy sofa and arm chairs, a wood burning stove and a smart TV (just in case you get bored of the beach) with seating for eight around a chunky wooden table. The kitchen is utterly contemporary and well equipped, with clean lines and lots of storage to keep your holiday clutter free. All other rooms are on the same floor with under floor heating throughout. The master bedroom (with queen-sized double bed and en suite shower room) shares the same dramatic views as the living area so you will be torn between staying in bed and enjoying looking at the beach, or getting out and being on it. There are two more bedrooms, one with a queen-sized double and the other a fun bunk room for four. A lovely family bathroom with large shower completes the accommodation.

Outside the beach house
Ty Bach Twt has generous outdoor space. The decked sun terrace to the front of the beach house is the obvious winner, but tucked away on a higher level is a second seating area which is perfect for a book or a glass of something. The decking continues all around the property and sheltered behind it are the same practical features that exemplify the thought that’s gone into planning this very special place. You’ll find racks for surfboards, a big storage cupboard, two hot and cold outdoor showers for slipping out of wetsuits in comfort, a wetsuit drying rail, and a remote-controlled sun (or rain) canopy. You’ll have a two burner Weber gas-fired barbeque to help you make the most of easy al fresco feasting.
The beach here is one of Cornwall’s best. Life-guarded in the main holiday season, there are miles of sand, scores of enticing rockpools, great for children, beachcombing, surfing, windsurfing, kite surfing and sun-worship. But of course it’s the view that defines Ty Bach Twt — you’ll be looking westward across the sweep of the beach to St Ives. At most times of year you’ll enjoy watching the sun plunge over the horizon and the lights of St Ives and Carbis Bay come alive in the darkness over the water.
There is parking for one car. Additional car parking is available at the public car park 500m in front of Sunset Surf Cafe.

Stunning view, perfect holiday
The house offers all you need for a relaxing holiday near the sea with perfect waves for surfing and bodyboarding. The view is really the best you can get in this area.

Never disappoints
Our 4yr at this stunning property. We absolutely love the area, the beaches, the farms, the restaurants. The sea goods even shone on us this year and delivered a few days of good swell, all just outside the back door.

July 2022 - Family Surfing Holiday
What a fabulous beach chalet in the most amazing location. We had a lovely family holiday here and made full use of the beach and local surfing school. The views and sunsets from the chalet were spectacular. Also a good location for St Erf station - a 15 minute drive away with train access to St Ives.

Perfect Position
Immaculate Beach House on the dunes, perfect escape and wonderful Beach that goes for miles. We were worried about the size as it's quite compact but everything is done so well on the interior we need not have worried. The position is unrivalled, the view, the sunset and the surf if you want. It was perfect.

Wonderful chalet in fabulous location
This chalet has the absolute best position in Gwithian Towans the views are just awesome and the beach literally just a few steps away, for us this was just what we were looking for as a special treat for our wedding anniversary. The whole chalet was very clean (a must for me), is kitted out with high quality fittings and appliances, also a super comfy bed, it has pretty much everything you should need really, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and were sad to leave. There's just a couple of things we felt we would have liked, some reclining outdoor chairs to relax outside on the deck perhaps, also some blinds in the lounge area, after dark we did feel a little exposed! neither would stop us from staying again though which I hope we will again very soon.

Excellent property in perfect location
We stayed here over Christmas quite literally had the best Christmas ever. The property itself is excellent. Three good sized bedrooms, dining area, lounge and well equipped kitchen all clean, modern and in good condition. There is excellent underfloor heating and a wood burning stove (which I wanted to use but the weather was so mild I just didn't need to!) Location is perfect, literally the last house before the beach so you couldn't be closer to a sweeping view of Gwithian Beach with the lighthouse in one direction and a wide sandy beach of 3-4 miles stretching in the other. We had s great stay and would highly recommend!

WOW!!!
What an amazing house! The photos don`t quite do justice to the immensity of those views. We were holidaying with our four children from 6 to 15, they enjoyed the house as well. The seating area is great for eating together, while watching the changing skies. The house is very clean and well equipped. And we learned to surf ( Thanks Poppy!) Thank you for a brilliant Holiday. We`ll be back next year.
