Staying at The Sail Lofts offers the freedom of a luxury five-star self catering holiday, with hotel-style concierge services; giving you access to everything you need for a perfect break in the relaxed surroundings of St Ives. To help you rejuvenate in St Ives we've have a luxury spa - the perfect way to indulge whilst staying enjoying our self catering in St Ives.

Our friendly team knows the town and West Cornwall inside out, and we're more than happy to recommend beaches and attractions, walks, places to eat, shops and galleries. We can arrange everything from booking boat trips and surf lessons, to ordering food deliveries from the local deli. We can even liaise with some of the best local chef’s to deliver gourmet meals to your apartment, or disappear into the kitchen and cook them for you, while you relax. We have an office in the central courtyard, so if there is anything you need, have concerns about or are just wondering ‘what do we do now’, you’re really welcome to come and see us.

Whether you want a short break, time away or a wonderful family holiday, our aim at The Sail Lofts is to make sure everything will be will be as relaxing, stress free and easy-going as possible. We’re continuing to add new ‘treats’ ready for when you arrive, here are just a few of our latest projects...
Take a bit of Cornwall home...
Our latest project is The Sail Lofts Exclusive Card. Available for everyone over 18 who spends time at The Sail Lofts self catering apartments, entirely free-of-charge The Exclusive Card gives you a 10% discount at a variety of businesses based in Cornwall. The final details will appear in a few weeks time, but we already have a number of leading clothes shops and manufacturers, wine producers, delicatessens, and an award-winning restaurant, joining the Exclusive Card scheme. We wanted to work with Cornish based companies who also have online shops so you can still benefit from your 10% reduction when at home. An Exclusive Card will be waiting in the apartment for the named person who made the booking from this summer, but other members of your party can sign-up for one by coming to The Sail Lofts office in Studio 7.
All about food…
St Ives is a fantastic place to eat-out, with a wonderful choice of restaurants, bars and cafes; but you may also want an evening in to relax, or celebrate a special occasion… without having to cook. Whatever the reason, a birthday breakfast, a wedding party, easy lunch or formal dinner, we can help arrange private dining in the comfort of your apartment. Working with Grant Nethercott, proprietor and head chef at the Alba Restaurant, the choice is yours. Whether it’s something from the Alba’s fine dining menu, or a bespoke menu tailored entirely to what you would like to eat, Grant and his team can come and cook exclusively for you.
Classic and creative cookery…
Grant has also been running private cooking courses for a number of our guests. From one-to-one short courses, to longer in-depth lessons for up to four people, spread over three days, he can teach you the essential skills of classic and contemporary cooking, to detailed recipes he has created at The Alba. Or if there’s something you’re particularly interested in, he can talk through your thoughts and plan something specific. With a very hands-on approach, whether you’re a passionate beginner or experienced home cook, the courses take place in the ease of your apartment, and are designed to be ‘professional’, practical and full of new skills for you to put into practice when you return home.
Do contact us if you have any questions or queries, and remember when your staying at The Sail Lofts self catering accommodation take advantage of our Tate St Ives corporate membership cards which gives you a 50% discount on entry prices to the Tate gallery and Barbara Hepworth museum.
