About St Ives:

St Ives is an idyllic seaside town in Cornwall, England. Situated on the north coast of Cornwall, it is known for its pristine beaches, quaint Harbour, and vibrant art scene.

The beautiful beaches of St Ives have been attracting visitors since the 19th century. The town has become a popular holiday destination, with picturesque coves and shimmering blue waters that draw tourists from all over the world. The main beach, Porthminster, is a favourite of local families and visitors alike. It's a great spot for swimming, surfing, and sunbathing, and the views from the top of the cliffs are simply stunning.

The Harbour is a great place to explore. It's a hive of activity with fishing boats coming and going, as well as pleasure craft and pleasure yachts. The Harbour also serves as a base for boat trips out to the Isles of Scilly, which are just a short distance away.

St Ives is also known for its vibrant art scene. The town has a strong tradition of artists and craftsmen, and there are many galleries, workshops, and studios to explore. The town is home to the Tate St Ives, which houses a large collection of modern and contemporary art. The Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden is also worth a visit, as is the Leach Pottery, which has been producing pottery since 1920.

St Ives is a great place to visit for a day, weekend, or longer. With its stunning beaches, vibrant art scene, and tranquil Harbour, it's no wonder that it is one of the most popular holiday destinations in Cornwall.

Although St Ives has many holiday properties, we chose the 2 bedroom ground floor promenade apartment 'The Fishes'. For its accessibility and convenience being just a few minutes walk away from the golden beach, restaurants, boutique shopping of St Ives.
