The sun is out, the temperatures are high, and it’s a big welcome back to the first glimpse of summer from us here at Tregenna! After a chilly start to the year, we wanted to celebrate the most beautiful views in all of sunny St Ives. Here are our favourites…
PORTHMINSTER BEACH
We may be a little bias because we have a beautiful view of the harbour from the resort. We’ll let you in on a secret though, it never gets old! Sweeping sandy beaches, beautiful blue waters, and a great spot to watch the fisherman sail in with their catch of the day.
ST IVES RAILWAY

Pictured: Carbis Bay
We will be absolutely gobsmacked if you can find a better view from a train line in this country. The St Ives Bay Line provides easy travel from St Erth to St Ives and offers stunning views like this one along the way.
ST MICHAEL’S MOUNT
Ancient cobbles, castle walls, and lush greenery all surrounded by the beautiful clear waters of the Atlantic Ocean. One of our favourite spots for family days out and romantic walks, St Michael’s Mount is not only beautiful but great fun too!
GODREVY LIGHTHOUSE
Said to be one of the most inspiring views in all of Cornwall, Godrevy Lighthouse is a beautiful sight to behold. Famously the inspiration for Virginia Woolf’s novel To The Lighthouse, this landmark makes for some incredible photo opportunities and breathtaking views.
How could St Ives possibly get better? How about a stay in a castle overlooking number 1 on our list? Make the most of beautiful St Ives with a stay in one of our self catering properties.
