FAQs
Q: Will I get a wetsuit to use or bring my own?
A: All equipment is provided by the surf school but if you have your own it is your choice.
Q: I've never surfed or SUP boarded before do I need to be able to swim?
A: It helps to swim a little and they may require you to be able to swim for 50mtrs however you should only ever be in the shallows and you will be with your group.
Q: How safe is it?
A: All the surf instructors are fully qualified and experienced growing up in the seas around Hayle and St.Ives. In addition you need to be a lifeguard to get your Surf Instructors Qualification.
Q: What if I don't want to surf or SUP board?
A: You can still enjoy the bubbles and sunset on the beach and we will bring the Hamper to you if you are in St.Ives or Hayle.

My name is Chris, and I have been given the opportunity to buy the Tack House. As a very recent purchase my family and myself, who live in and around St.Ives, look forward to up-holding the memories and special times the Tack House has brought to so many people over the years. As a unique part of Hayle's history the Tack House offers the feeling of a well-loved house in a tranquil setting.
The Tack House was originally the tack house for the horses and carriages of the Foundry estate, and has since been restored into a beautiful one bedroom retreat available for holiday lets throughout the year.
Tucked away down a hidden lane, nestled in the quiet confines of this area of protected, historical beauty, the Tack House is in a peaceful setting with its own private gardens perfect for summer evening BBQs or relaxing on the lounge chairs, getting lost in a good book or painting your masterpiece. Inside, set against the old granite hath, you'll find a cosy log burner for snuggling up on colder nights.
Escape the madding crowds whilst being in the heart of all that Cornwall can offer: the perfect place for a romantic retreat, walking or surf holiday.
While the Tack House is small, it is cleverly designed and offers everything you might need for your stay.
Dogs are welcome too!
Whether you are storm chasing or sun seeking, the Tack House is the place to come home to.
A warm house with an open fire at its heart, a lie-in or an evening snuggle is a must.
Hayle is home to 3 miles of golden sands. The beautiful beaches offer endless coastal walks, surfing, kite surfing, kayaking, world famous bird watching and much more.
The Tack House is a short walk from; beaches, restaurants, shops , cafes, bars and the train station. It lends itself as an amazing base for those looking to dip in and out of Cornwall's finest attractions while leaving some precious time for yourself and your loved ones.
Be sure to take the famous train into St Ives from St Erth at least once during your stay!

Just outside the famous St Ives, Hayle is home to some of the most beautiful beaches in the country. From the Tack House it is just a short walk to Hayle beach, at low tide, the golden sands stretch three miles all the way to Godrevy and its protected light house.
Also close by is the super beautiful Phillack beach, Mexico and Lelant Downs which remains dog friendly all year round.
Gwithian is a famous surfing spot and you'll find a fabulous vibe on every stretch of sand that you explore. There are several new bars and restaurants that sit overlooking St.Ives bay.
St Ives is a short drive or an easy train ride away and is absolutely beautiful.
This vibrant town with its stunning beaches and historic harbour are famous for a reason. Meander through the quirky streets, explore the art galleries and shops - it's a lovely way to spend a day!
