The area is beautiful! We walked around the port, visited 2 museums & dined in the town. The taxi service is terrific & spared us the ordeal of driving the narrow streets.

Very friendly quaint and charming seaside village. Cottage was ideal this time of year with gas fireplace, comfortable king bed and very nice bathroom with separate amazing shower. Spent a week in St. Ives studying pottery at Leach Pottery.
