St Ives

Beautiful cobbled streets, pretty fishermen’s cottages and outstanding beaches welcome you in this magical Cornish seaside town.

Enjoy traditional Cornish fayre in the harbour and watch the boats go by or relax in one of the 4 beautiful beaches, all within walking distance of the central Downalong area.

The town is full of quaint shops, cafes and restaurants mixed alongside fantastic art galleries and craft shops. History and tradition has attracted artists to St. Ives for many years making this area an international centre for Art and with the beautiful light and the Tate and Barbara Hepworth museum on your doorstep, you cannot fail to be inspired.

For the more active guest, there is much to choose from. Whether you enjoy a surf lesson on Porthmeor Beach or paddle boarding and kayaking at Porthminster, there are non-stop activities to choose from. The magical Cornish coast and the breathtaking scenery has attracted walkers for centuries, with deep sea fishing and speed boating for the more adventurous explorer.

Families love the safe, soft sand of the outstanding beaches whilst children enjoy crabbing in the harbour. Watching this working harbour is a delight in itself as the fishermen repair their nets and bring alongside catch of the day. 

St. Ives is very well placed to explore the rest of Cornwall whether that be the famous thrill seeking attractions or historical Cornish monuments and towns, all are a short drive away.

Or why not enjoy a helicopter ride and enjoy the unique Cornish coastline from the sky, possibilities for a fantastic holiday are endless here.
