“Glamourous and discreet six room boutique hotel in buzzy St Ives. A tranquil spot with sweeping views. Large airy rooms and suites with neutral tones and splashes of pastel colours. Informal dining based on Cornish produce. Excellent and personal service. Perfectly achieved laid back luxury.”

Hotel Review
It's sheer Capri at Blue Hayes, a 'private' six-room hotel perched discreetly above St Ives Bay and the bustling harbour, with white balustraded steps and terraces and stunning view. The refurbished 1920s building, elegantly decorated in light colours, makes a wonderfully tranquil place in which to spend time and, best of all, owner Malcolm Herring and his friendly team are charming hosts. Great breakfasts. Light dinners available, or take a cocktail and walk down the path to the much vaunted Porthminster Beach Cafe.
