Trevose Harbour Hotel
Features: Beachfront, Breakfast, WiFi
St Ives is widely considered the jewel in Cornwall’s crown, a harbour town where the light is so dazzling it has attracted artists for over a century. Defined by its crystal-clear turquoise waters and soft white sand, it often feels more like a subtropical oasis than a British seaside resort. The town itself is a maze of cobbled streets known as the “Downalong,” packed with fishermen’s cottages, world-class galleries like the Tate, and an incredible array of restaurants serving fresh local seafood. Whether you are looking to surf at Porthmeor, explore the art scene, or simply watch the boats bob in the harbour, St Ives offers the quintessential Cornish holiday experience.
