Within 72 acres of private grounds, this Tregenna Castle Resort overlooks St Ives and the Cornish coast.

We had an amazing stay here. The staff were so kind and accommodating. When an issue with our room couldn't be resolved, they moved us to a better room, to ensure that we had a comfortable stay, which was amazing. The space was beautiful, with stunning views and clean, stylish interiors. There were beautiful walks, tennis courts, games, restaurants, with easy access to St Ives. Would definitely recommend, for the fabulous staff and gorgeous, comfortable spaces.

    This is my happy place so I’m biased.

    This is my happy place so I’m biased. Lovely beaches, shops and wide range of places to stay and eat. Parking can be difficult in the summer months but there is a good bus service from the large car park at the leisure centre. Highly recommended

    It was nice to take a slow walk about the town exploring both shoreline and back streets . Lots of lovely smells about the place from all the different types of food and drink available. Scoff troff was good quick snack food . For fish and chips takeaway - try up steps by the sloop - they were yummy .

    The tiny little gift shops and local art shops everywhere were so fun to wander. I could've tried all the cafes and restaurants for a week here, so much great food and lovely places to walk. We wandered the harbour for the day, but could've easily spent a day at each beach if there weather allowed. Would've like to tackle a few hikes around the area but we ran out of time. I'd definitely recommend for all - families, couples, friends - it's such a lovely little getaway spot. We ate at the Pedn Olva for lunch, and sat at the window for a beautiful view. Food was tasty and simple. Parking and driving in this village area is not advised (streets are so narrow and there isn't really any parking) so would recommend walking into the village.

    Love St Ives, it is magical in October as it is much quieter but still has a lovely buzz about it. Great places to eat, drink and watch the world go by. Always book your places to eat as it can be busy at peak times. I would live here if I could. We ate at lots of seafood tapas restaurants and walked along the coastline and saw seals and other wildlife.

    St Ives is a picturesque Cornish coastal town that has long been an inspiration and home for artists. The sculptor Barbara Hepworth lived and worked here, and her house and sculpture garden is now a wonderful museum that is not to be missed. Tate St Ives has a revolving programme of excellent temporary art exhibitions, with the gallery building overlooking the stunning Porthmeor beach. Just below Tate St Ives, facing the beach is an excellent café, where you can look out to sea while enjoying a coffee. The town has lots of other good cafés, pubs and eateries and seven lovely beaches to enjoy. If you like walking, St Ives forms just part of the 630 mile South West Cost Path that runs from Minehead in Somerset, along the coasts of Devon and Cornwall, to Poole Harbour in Dorset. It is very easy to walk around St Ives, which has many winding streets hosting independent shops, and you are never very far away from an art gallery.

    My mum & I had the best 4 nights at Pedn Olva! The location is absolutely perfect, the hotel has the most amazing views from all angles and is well positioned between the town and all the beaches so you'll never have to walk too far. The pool and sunlounger area is great - there is also a lovely terrace with plenty of space - we felt like we were abroad! Our bed was one of the comfiest I've ever slept in and the breakfasts we had every morning were delicious. We would definitely return!!

    the hotel is located next to the most beautiful beach in town. The host has restored a one-time prissy hotel, into a hip enclave with clean open areas with natural toned accents. It still feels homey and is a pleasure to return to every evening. The breakfast had more variety than we found anywhere else. St. Ives is a popular destination, but I am so glad we stayed there. The town is walkable but I feel his location is the best possible.

    A beautiful hotel in a stunning location. Very luxurious interior decor throughout the hotel and the gardens situated around the hotel were lovely and well maintained. Liked how there was a choice of different restaurants to dine in throughout the hotel.We had a room with a large bay window seat with a Seaview that was a very welcomed surprise with beautiful views of the beach.

    Great location, easy to walk into St Ives and wonderful house to stay in. Had best nights sleep in the comfy beds. The host was friendly, gave clear directions re house and responded promptly to any queries. The extra touches eg bathrobes, welcome pack added to our stay in this beautiful house in St Ives, Cornwall. Perfect place to come home to after walking & sightseeing.

    This is a charming hotel with an amazing location, right on the ocean. Views are terrific! We very much enjoyed the heated pool with ocean view too! The room is small but adequate and we were located right off of one of the lovely outdoor patios. The restaurant was good and the location near town was perfect. We had a great stay at the Pedn Olva.

    Dinner at hotel restaurant was excellent and reasonably priced. We had expected to eat out two of three nights but ended up eating at the hotel all three nights. Staff was wonderful and remembered us each time we came back. Tea and biscuits were provided in room. Beds were comfortable and there was a fan to use when weather was warm.

    It was adequate, no frills accommodation. I suppose you don’t visit Cornwall to stay at the accommodation? There was a lovely woodland walk which was beautiful in the evening sunshine and you will be a short car journey away from Saint Ives or the bus leaves hourly. It was well connected. These were all very positive things

    Room was spacious and comfortable. Grounds of the hotel were lovely with beautifuly tended gardens. Breakfast was very good, with a variety of choices. Walk through the grounds into town wasn't long and quite pleasant despite the gradient of the hill. Atmosphere of the hotel was pleasant and staff were helpfully friendly.
