We've teamed up with the awesome guys at i-escape to offer you the chance to win one of our St Ives short haul bags and a luxury beach escape at our favourite hotel in St Ives, the Boskerris. Perched on a hillside just above Carbis Bay's white-sand beach, the Boskerris is a contemporary, boutique hotel with a laid back Mediterranean style.

Perfectly located on the outskirts of the foodie hub of St Ives, this hotel has super stylish interiors and big views of ocean and headland. It’s a family affair – friendly, welcoming, a great little base. Best of all, the wide, decked terrace is dotted with cushion-piled sofas where you can sit back and gaze across the bay - and the whole place is infused with the famous Cornish light that has inspired generations of artists.
To enter, all you have to do is post your best beach holiday picture on instagram, with the hashtag #mybeachvibe, and tag & follow @saintlukeco & @iescapehotels!
