Description
Christie & Co are delighted to bring to market Hellesveor Holidays, a well-established holiday accommodation business occupying an enviable coastal location close to St Ives Bay in Cornwall.
Situated on the outskirts of the renowned seaside town of St Ives, Hellesveor Holidays enjoys a unique setting combining picturesque countryside with far-reaching coastal views. The property provides guests with a peaceful retreat while remaining within easy reach of Cornwall’s award-winning beaches, coastal walks and popular visitor attractions.
The business comprises a collection of high-quality holiday accommodation, catering to couples, families and groups seeking a memorable Cornish getaway. Attractive outdoor spaces and stunning sea views further enhance the guest experience, creating a sought-after destination for visitors to the region.
Carefully developed and maintained by its owners, Hellesveor Holidays has built a strong reputation for quality accommodation, excellent hospitality and consistently high guest satisfaction. The business benefits from a loyal customer base, repeat visitation and excellent reviews, reflecting both the quality of the offering and the appeal of its exceptional coastal setting.
Hellesveor Holidays occupies a highly accessible and desirable position on the northern edge of St Ives, one of Cornwall's premier coastal destinations. Located approximately one mile from St Ives town centre, the resort benefits from a peaceful countryside setting while remaining within easy reach of the town's beaches, harbour, retail offering, restaurants and cultural attractions.
The property sits within the West Penwith Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, providing direct access to the Cornish countryside and the South West Coast Path. Nearby beaches include Porthmeor Beach, Porthminster Beach, Carbis Bay Beach and the expansive sandy coastline of St Ives Bay, all of which are popular with holidaymakers throughout the year.
The resort benefits from excellent transport connectivity. The A30, Cornwall's principal arterial route, is easily accessible and provides direct links to Exeter, the M5 motorway and the wider South West region. St Erth railway station, located approximately 4 miles away, offers regular mainline services to London Paddington and connects with the scenic St Ives Bay branch line serving St Ives station. Cornwall Airport Newquay is approximately 40 miles away, providing domestic and international connections.
Extending to approximately 2.3 acres, the property offers an attractive and well-established holiday accommodation and touring park set-up. The site currently comprises a collection of charming letting cottages, each benefiting from private garden areas, together with extensive open grounds beyond.
The touring and caravan area provides 30 hardstanding pitches for caravans and motorhomes, all equipped with electric hook-ups. A number of pitches also benefit from individual water connections, with the remainder served by a convenient communal water supply.
Supporting the site are two shower and WC facilities blocks, both having been extended and upgraded to a high standard. The larger amenities block incorporates dedicated washing and laundry facilities, including a washing machine and tumble dryer, together with a waste disposal area located to the rear.

Hellesveor Holidays is a well-established tourism business in one of Cornwall's most sought-after holiday destinations, offering a diverse accommodation mix that includes camping and touring pitches, self-catering cottages, glamping accommodation and holiday lets in St Ives. The business benefits from a strong reputation, repeat customer base and an attractive location that combines a peaceful countryside setting with proximity to the beaches, harbour and amenities of St Ives.
The existing site presents opportunities for future growth, subject to the necessary planning consents, through the expansion of holiday accommodation provision or the introduction of complementary tourism and leisure facilities.
