Katoomba - Cornwall Beach Chalet

30/10/2026

Well, this is the post I've been putting off!

I have owned Katoomba for six years now, and throughout that time I've had the most amazing housekeepers.

Sadly, they've needed to restructure their business and are no longer able to look after Katoomba. Alongside their wonderful team, they've always been there, keeping Katoomba pristine (I get so many lovely messages from guests telling me this too!), but they've also quietly kept an eye on the chalet and been there to help whenever anything unexpected has happened.

I've been dreading this day, but I know it's the right decision for them.

I've found some highly regarded new housekeepers, so hopefully my lovely guests won't notice any changes.

So please join me in thanking the wonderful Judy and Brian, without whom I really don't know if I would have survived this long in the world of holiday letting!

Judy and Brian, you know how much I've appreciated everything you've done for me. I really can't thank you enough.

Now please go and enjoy your own holiday - you've certainly earned it!

Lots of love,

Kerry xx

✨ **And that’s a wrap on another great season at Katoomba!** 💙

A huge thank you to everyone who stayed at Katoomba this year, and to everyone who follows, likes and shares our little corner of Cornwall. We really do appreciate your support. 🐾

Storm Austen certainly gave us a finale we weren’t expecting! Thankfully, Katoomba has come through unscathed, although we know parts of Hayle and Cornwall haven’t been so fortunate. Our thoughts are with everyone affected. 💙

We’re now tucked up for the winter, but already looking forward to welcoming guests back in 2027 for more sandy walks, sea air and cosy evenings.

If you’re thinking about a Cornish beach escape next year, you can find out more here:

Thank you for being part of another lovely season. See you in 2027! ✨

⚡ **A little question for our Katoomba guests!** 🚗

We're thinking about adding an electric vehicle (EV) charging point at Katoomba, and we'd love to know what you think.

If you drive an electric car, would having a charger right at the chalet be useful when you're staying with us in Hayle? Would it make your holiday a little easier?

We haven't made any decisions yet, so your thoughts would be really helpful!

And if you've stayed at Katoomba before and now drive an EV, we'd particularly love to hear from you. 😊

Thanks everyone! 🐾🌊

💛 Could you help us spread the word? 🌊

I’ve noticed Facebook doesn’t seem to be showing our posts to as many people lately, so I’m asking a little favour!

If you enjoy following Katoomba and our little corner of Cornwall, I’d be so grateful if you could share this post with friends or family who love Cornwall, beach holidays or dog-friendly breaks. 🐾🏖️

It only takes a moment, but every share helps more people discover our little beach chalet. 💛

Thank you so much for your support- it really does mean a lot! 🌊

Amazing shot of Gilbert’s. This is about a 10 minute walk from Katoomba through the quiet lanes past the cricket club. It’s fantastic all year round and is dog friendly too! 🐾🐶☕️

👋 Hello and welcome to all our new followers! 💛

I thought it was about time I properly introduced Katoomba- our little beach chalet in Riviere Towans, Hayle, Cornwall. 🌊🏖️

We bought Katoomba in 2020 and have loved turning it into a cosy little base for exploring this beautiful part of Cornwall.

It’s a 2-bedroom chalet sleeping up to 4, just a short walk through the Towans to the 3-mile sandy beach at St Ives Bay. 🏖️

We’re dog friendly too 🐾, and one of my favourite things is that you can park up and forget about the car for the day- just walk down to the beach!

Inside, there’s an open-plan lounge, kitchen and dining area with underfloor heating, making it just as lovely for a cosy autumn or winter break as it is for a summer holiday. 🔥☕

We’ve just had another busy summer and are now taking bookings for 2027-although we still have our final three weeks of 2026 available from 10th–31st October. 🍂

And to all our new followers… what brings you to Katoomba? Have you stayed with us before, or are you just discovering us? 😊
Do ask away if there is anything in particular you would like to know!

I wasn’t lucky enough to have the geothermal pool in my youth! Well worth a visit and a wander across the prom and into Penzance!

💙The Geothermal Pool is open again from 10am today - Friday 31st July!!💙

We are so happy to announce that the Geothermal pool is back up at 32 degrees - thanks to the wonderful team from Thermal Earth. We're open from 1000 today with our last session at 1700, bookable online
We apologise to those we had to cancel but with uncertainty about the repair and the resulting temperature, we had to play safe. Hope to see you at the Pool today!
