Welcome to Secret Spot in St. Ives, Cornwall
Secret Spot offers "Seaside self-catering holiday accommodation and courses for families and groups."
Self-catering accommodation
Our self-contained, self-catering accommodation right in the vibrant centre of St. Ives, is ideal for families, couples and small groups.
It’s perfect for families who might want to combine a lot of different interests – minutes from the surf and the Tate Gallery at Porthmeor, the Barbara Hepworth Museum, Trewyn’s sub-tropical gardens and the bustling harbour with its waterside restaurants and bars. The Bernard Leach Pottery due to re-open in 2007 after a major restoration is a few minutes walk away.
It’s also ideal for families with teenagers who are just about ready to do their own thing. Secretspot-stives is the ultimate place to live the dream! Whether you’re just looking for the ultimate in chilled, quality accommodation, a base for a surfari around some of the best surf breaks in the UK, or a week’s intensive coaching with a top surf pro, or just a few days away from it all following your nose around the hidden coves of West Cornwall, we can arrange it for you!

The Secret Spot St Ives Gallery.
Opened in October 2006 with an exhibition of photographs from the British Surfing Association’s archive to celebrate 40 years of British surfing, the Secret Spot Gallery can be found on the first floor of the Old Sunday School, St Ives.
Our aim is to develop this new venue in the centre of St Ives as a Centre for Surf Culture, dedicated to the celebration of surfing, surf heritage, lifestyle and culture.
Our exhibition programme will include work by contemporary surf photographers, video and film-makers, as well as historic archive photography and film. The gallery will also be used for our developing programme of residential short courses.
