Abandoning for a moment the Scilly Isles and returning to the mainland, a separate discussion deserves a delicious, sparkling village of St. Ives. Smaller crop, charming and picturesque little town of Penzance, St. Ives is a popular holiday resort on the northern coast. Accessible from Penzance with bus (departing from the bus station, almost opposite the train station), particularly popular with surfers and artists, as well as a varied and diverse crowd of tourists, St. Ives, in my humble opinion, the quintessence of wild and dazzling beauty of West Cornwall. Of beaches and coves where the sea winds with its unbridled force of delicious restaurants and art galleries, small shops and characteristic of historic buildings, St. Ives deserves a visit of several days. Places to stay out there, but here as well as for the rest of Cornwall, must move in time so as not to be forced to stay overnight in a very expensive hotel. Last summer, in August and very short notice, I could only find a place to Pedn-Olva Hotel: very nice hotel, perched on a cliff but close to the center of the country, with a terrace and outdoor swimming pool, furnished rooms extreme care, good and abundant breakfast, dining room overlooking the sea, with restaurant and bar within itself: the system has proved very clean and comfortable, but perhaps a little above of my ability ... Moving well in advance is certainly possible to find much cheaper accommodation: bed and breakfasts, smaller hotels, rooms or apartments to rent, but if you have good disposable income and want to offer you a little 'luxury-Olva Pedn the Hotel can be the solution for you ... www.pednolva.co.uk is the address of the hotel's website: I invite you to look at it, even to get an idea of \u200b\u200bthe natural beauty that St. Ives has to offer ...
If you are interested in modern and contemporary art and sculpture, you can not fail to visit the famous Tate St. Ives and the Barbara Hepworth Museum: At this address you can find more information: www. tate.org.uk / stives . With a combined ticket you can visit both and make you realize how this picturesque town, "lost" in distant Cornwall, has been able to inspire so many and such artistic personalities, known to the international scene.
If you're just interested in walking outdoors and the sea, be sure to visit all the beautiful beaches of St. Ives and Carbis Bay and promontario with its charming chapel.
If you're a surfer, this is your paradise.
If you love good food, tasty meat and seafood, you will find "bread" for your teeth, always in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
