The Front Room
83 Market Jew StA cute little coffee shop that also offers a simple dinner menu
This is a great little seafood bar serving a mouth watering choice of fresh fish from Newlyn. One of the best parts is their 'no booking' policy which allows you to show up and wait for a table. Food is delivered fast and most people eat and move on fairly quickly. We have never heard any negative comments from any of our guests and all say it's excellent!

Our 'Special' Cornwall
One of the best things to do in St. Ives is visit the Barbara Hepworth Museum & Sculpture Garden. This was her home in Cornwall and it's a magical place to visit, where you can really feel the artist and see her garden studio...just as she left it!

It's hard not to LOVE this dog-friendly beach, a little touch of the caribbean with its white sand and crystal clear turquoise sea.
Stunning views right out to Godrevy lighthouse across to St. Ives. Walking alongside the golf course and train line all along to Carbis Bay and Porthminster beach in St. Ives.
