St ives In recent years St Ives has become one of Europe's premier holiday destinations, famed not only for its beautiful beaches and coastal paths but also for the maze of narrow, cobbled streets packed with restaurants, galleries, cafés and local bars that all lead down onto the picturesque harbourside. There are five sandy beaches, including neighbouring Carbis Bay, three of which are award-winning, blue flag beaches; the coastal paths provide a treat for walkers and bird-watchers alike. The town is also renowned for its artist community; many artists live in and visit St Ives because the light is said to be special. There are galleries, art shops and artistic inspiration all over the town including the Tate, and the Barbara Hepworth museum and sculpture garden. The town has a lovely mix of smaller, independent shops and high street stores. There is a Co-op for groceries or an out-of-town Tesco some 2 miles away.
The St Ives Bay Railway Line runs around the coast and is a beautiful route. Trains to St Erth meet the main line and connect to other Cornish towns and to Plymouth, Reading and London Paddington and to cross-country services to Birmingham, Manchester and Glasgow.
Newquay Airport is less than an hour away with routes to UK and Irish airports as well as European destinations.

The property Both St. John's in the Fields' Church and the Vicarage were built by W. F. May Construction, of silvery granite and with a slate roof. Construction of the church was commenced in 1857 and completed in 1858. The final design for the Vicarage, also by renowned local architect Jas P. St. Aubyn, was completed in 1859 and the property was constructed shortly thereafter. The original plan of the ground floor now hangs in the back hallway and clearly shows the Gig house which was never constructed. The old Vicarage was abandoned temporarily whilst new owners were sought and was even occupied by squatters for a short while until being sold for £7,500 to Mr. & Mrs. Sykes who were seeking to expand on their success with a guest house in Carbis Bay. Thus the Old Vicarage Hotel came into being in 1970. The property was completely renovated, including the installation of full central heating and complete redecoration but the charm and features of the late 19th Century were skilfully retained. Despite recent surrounding residential development as St. Ives grew to encompass the Old Vicarage, the secluded and peaceful wooded grounds provide ample parking and a buffer from the hustle and bustle of modern life.
