Local Area

We’d love to share with you some of our favourite things to do locally, in the village and beyond… Some things that you won’t find in any tourist brochures!!

St Ives is one of Cornwall’s most iconic coastal towns — famous for its golden beaches, turquoise waters and creative, laid-back energy. Whether you know it for its surf, its art scene, or its postcard-perfect harbour, St Ives offers a holiday experience that feels both vibrant and wonderfully relaxed.

The town’s heart is built around its picture-book harbour, where fishing boats bob gently with the tide and narrow cobbled streets lead you through a maze of independent shops, boutique galleries, artisan bakeries and excellent restaurants. From fresh seafood to modern bistros and traditional Cornish pubs, St Ives offers a fantastic variety of places to dine, many with beautiful sea views.

St Ives has long been associated with the arts, and visitors can immerse themselves in its cultural side at Tate St Ives, the Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden, and countless independent studios. The town’s natural light and dramatic coastal scenery continue to inspire artists from around the world.

The beaches here are among the best in Cornwall. Porthmeor is ideal for surfing, Porthminster is perfect for families with its calm, sheltered waters, and Carbis Bay offers soft sand and gentle swimming — even home to its own Blue Flag status. The South West Coast Path links these stunning bays together, offering spectacular walks and panoramic viewpoints.

Beyond the town itself, St Ives is perfectly placed for exploring West Cornwall. The nearby village of Zennor offers rugged granite cliffs and legendary folklore; Hayle provides miles of sandy beach stretching toward Gwithian and Godrevy Lighthouse; and the open moorland of Penwith is dotted with ancient stone circles, engine houses and iconic Cornish mining heritage. St Ives is also within easy reach of Marazion and St Michael’s Mount, as well as the lively streets of Penzance and Mousehole.

Whether you spend your days wandering galleries, relaxing on the beach, or discovering the wild beauty of the Cornish coastline, St Ives offers an unforgettable blend of natural scenery, culture and coastal charm — a truly exceptional base for a holiday in Cornwall.
