Hotel recreation
There are plenty of recreational activities to choose from both within the hotel and around St Ives. If you’re in need of some active relaxation, you won’t have to travel far from your room to find it. Just head down to our heated indoor pool, step in, and let the water do its work. In season, our private outdoor pool allows you to soak up the sun while you swim.
For those who wish to up the pace slightly, there are tennis courts (free to Porthminster guests – to book a court, please ask at Reception) within a stone’s throw of the hotel. Hopefully the stunning views won’t distract you from your game too much. For keen golfers a visit to West Cornwall Golf Course at Lelant is not to be missed. Acclaimed as one of the most glorious ‘natural’ courses in the British Isles (and Cornwall’s oldest links course), this 18-hole course is renowned for its panoramic views of the bay.

If that’s not exhilarating enough for you, how about trying your hand at surfing, windsurfing, climbing, horse riding, sea-kayaking or coasteering in some of the most spectacular surroundings in Cornwall? We can put you in touch with providers and instructors in all kinds of activities, including adventure sports for grown-ups and children over 8.
