Created by the design-savvy duo behind Trevose Harbour House, coastal villa Samphire Studio is nestled among fishermen’s cottages in the characterful ‘downalong’ area of St Ives, with pretty Porthgwidden cove just a few steps away. Flaunting a rich-green colour scheme, the interiors are a masterclass in mid-century design, showcasing an Eero Saarinen dining table, re-upholstered 1970s chairs and pebble tables by Lucian Ercolani. The whitewashed walls are decorated with the work of local artists, providing a snapshot of St Ives’ thriving scene. If you find yourself fancying a change from the beach, you need only step outside, where you’ll find Cornish palms swaying in your own botanical garden.

Location

Photos Trevose Harbour House Samphire Studio
  • St Ives is almost at the tip of Cornwall, on the north coast. It’s five hours’ drive from London (six hours by train from London Paddington).
  • Newquay is the closest airport, an hour’s drive from St Ives. There are regular flights from London and most major UK cities.
  • The apartment is just a few yards from Porthgwidden beach, a sheltered cove with beach huts and an excellent all-day cafe. St Ives harbour is a five-minute walk away, as is the spectacular surf beach, Porthmeor.
  • St Ives is a small town which packs a big punch – there’s an outpost of the Tate gallery, a Barbara Hepworth museum, high-end seafood (book a table at the Porthminster Cafe) and lots of good old fashioned fish ‘n’ chips (watch out for seagulls).
