I stayed few days in The Penellen over Easter. The view from windows is amazing. Rooms are clean and well maintained. There's pub and shop down the road. There's also selection of snacks and drinks you can purchase inside The Penellen. Owners are lovely and friendly. Well recommended

I am lost for words how amazing this accommodation is. I was not expecting the size of it and how spacious it is. I am in a dog friendly cottage. It was immaculately clean. It looked like a show home. The owners left a welcome package which was a lovely touch. All the amenities you need. A shared garden is on the back over looking the beach, lovely to watch the sun set. I booked again within an hour of my arrival for next year. Thats how this place speaks for its self.

Everything you need for a dog friendly stay in St Ives Bay

Your Cornish holiday doesn’t have to mean leaving your dog at home. Choose one of our dog friendly apartments in St Ives Bay, Hayle, and enjoy a self-catering break where the coast, countryside and some of West Cornwall’s most popular destinations are all within easy reach.

Explore our available dog friendly accommodation and start planning your next stay in Hayle, Cornwall.

One of the biggest advantages of staying in Hayle is the amount of coastline close by. The Hayle and St Ives Bay area is known for its long stretches of sand, giving you plenty of opportunities to enjoy walks beside the sea. Beach access for dogs can vary depending on the beach and time of year, particularly during the busier summer season. We recommend checking the current restrictions before setting out with your dog.

Outside restricted periods, a beach walk can be one of the simplest ways to enjoy this part of Cornwall, whether that’s an early morning stroll, an evening walk as the beach becomes quieter or a longer day exploring the coastline.

A dog-friendly holiday in Hayle doesn’t have to revolve entirely around the beach. The surrounding coastline provides plenty of opportunities to explore West Cornwall on foot. From shorter walks around the bay to longer sections of the coast, staying in Hayle gives you a base from which you can discover different parts of the landscape each day.

For energetic dogs and owners, longer coastal walks can become a full day out. If you prefer something gentler, you can choose shorter routes and spend more time enjoying the views, stopping for refreshments or exploring the towns and villages along the way.

Hayle is more than simply a base for reaching St Ives. Staying locally means you can enjoy the town, coastline and surrounding countryside without needing to travel far every day. Morning walks can start close to your accommodation before heading towards the coast, while longer days can be spent discovering the wider St Ives Bay area.

Having self-catering accommodation also gives you more flexibility when travelling with a dog. You can plan your day around walks, feeding times and rest periods rather than having to follow the timetable of a hotel or traditional guest accommodation.

A little preparation can make travelling to Cornwall with your dog much easier. Before arriving, consider what you’ll need both inside your accommodation and while exploring St Ives Bay. Bring your dog’s usual food, lead, water bowl, bedding and anything else they rely on at home. For days out, it’s useful to carry fresh water, waste bags, a towel for wet or sandy paws and a lead suitable for busier coastal areas.

It’s also worth planning a mixture of longer adventures and quieter days. With beaches, coastal walks, Hayle and St Ives all accessible from the area, you don’t need to fit everything into a single day.
