A few words from the owner
We are only the second owners of this 1950's chalet set atop the dunes. We fell in love with the views over the sea to St. Ives and the character of this little hut.

A little of Silver Mist's history….The previous owner, a Cornishman who we knew, bought the land and built the hut in the 1950's. He sold the hut to us as he was in his 90's and could no longer upkeep this little gem but knew we would respect its history, and restore it accordingly. It is a wooden hut, as can be seen from the original roof inside the property, which has stood the test of time! However the structure and interior was in need of total refurbishment. It was so beautiful, with views from all aspects, but had fallen into disrepair and was in need of love and attention bring it back to its former glory!

We are an architect and interior designer, so it was a wonderful project to work on. We restored Misty over the winter of 2016/17, with love and care. Attention was paid to keeping the hut's original character, but bringing it up to modern day standards, including thermal insulation and double glazing, reinforcing the floors and re-cladding the outside. We added lots of personal touches, practical small space solutions, and made the most of the amazing views by adding a deck.

This dream holiday home has been host to so many wonderful memories, with guests returning to its charms every year. There is nothing as wonderful as sitting on the deck watching the sunset with a glass of wine in hand!

We would love to pass Misty on to someone who will cherish this chalet as much as we have over last few years. It really is a special place to escape.
