Loved this. We have been coming here every year for the past decade and have finally decided to leave London and make Carbis bay our forever home. Keep the content coming!
The most beautiful place in the world on a sunny day-I’ve been going to St Ives since the early 70s only last weekend we stayed in the sloop in the highest bedroom overlooking the harbour-We go down for New year most years as well ,it’s a fancy dress and great night every year .
Great short video, well done!! I would echo your point on Carbis Bay. We stay in rented apartments there every year, and the train is fab and cheap, and even cheaper for a group. Ideal also for getting the train into Penzance and anywhere else on the network. There is so much in the far south west and this is a great base. The map doesn't do this justice as time-wise everything is so close together. Restaurants massive choice and great quality. We are down in September and have already booked our favourite restaurants. A nightmare if you want to attempt to drive in but if you get the train from St Erth park and ride you get the most amazing coastal. Scenic views anywhere. Enjoy!!!!
I'll be there this September for a bit of September Fest. Thanks for the tips on places to see. I missed some of them when I was there a number of years ago. So excited to get back to St. Ives!
plenty of people do this sort of thing on youtube BUT you actually reminded me of an actual holiday program that used to be on itv in the good old days growing up.. judith charmers and wish you were here 😂😂..
Thanks for sharing, I live in Edinburgh and planning to visit Carbis Bay this summer! Could you please be kind enough and advise on where to stay, we are small family 2 adults and a teenager? Thanks in advance.
Hey so there are loads of little AirBnbs and holiday lets in St Ives and Carbis Bay. A great one in Carbis Bay is 'Compass Point' as its so close to the beach and train station and often not too expensive.
The lodges were built without planning permission.Destroyed ancient woodland. The Hotel has built over a significant area of the beach and surrounding area pretty much destroying what was one an area of outstanding natural beauty. Over development has ruined the place.
@@beachliving depends if you knew how it looked forty years ago. Behind the hotel, the valley was tumbling ancient woodland, blossom trees, flowers, winding footpath down to the beach. The area should never have been developed. It was outstandingly beautiful. Greed won.
Of course the beaches are superb and the sea is beautiful, but the town is so drab. If it were the Med. there would be potted plants, hanging baskets, geraniums and climbing flowering shrubs. The buildings are so boring . Not particularly attractive. I know how much they charge for holidays in St.Ives. Obviously all the money is going back to London or The Cotswolds because they're not investing it in the town. The town is actually unattractive.
Hey Kevin, have you been? You must have missed all the potted hanging baskets and the gardens in the town? Loads of lovely flowers everywhere. Surprised you don't like it, I think it's one of the pretiest towns in the UK? What's your top 3?
Have you been here before?
Cornwall is THE BEST place on earth 😊 love it!🎉
Thanks Susan!

Oh I’ll have to try that little restaurant on the little beach . Yes we always walk round there 😊
Yes it's not bad... a bit pricey though

Hey yes they should have got permission for sure, I wouldn't say the place is ruined though

As one of the most beautiful places in the UK I think you are wrong in your description of St Ives.
