A relaxing but exhilarating way to tour the surrounding area is to jump aboard the scenic railway, it runs beside the beaches with breath-taking views all the way, stop at Carbis Bay, this secluded beach is a slice of paradise with azure waters lapping onto its golden shores, a healthy option is to venture out along the cliffside South West Coast Path, which follows a similar route to the train and gives you a real chance to experience Cornwall’s wild fauna, flora, and wildlife.

The Pearl, as the name suggests, offers something rather unique and priceless, with its stunning views of not only the beach but St Ives harbour too and once discovered we think you’ll find it a treasure.

The accommodation is well maintained, comfortable and relaxing.

It's furnishings are nice and modern too. The kitchen is also nice and spacious, and equipped well (although needs to add a measuring jug). Overall, The Pearl offers great accommodation and a great location, and the views of St Ives Harbour from here are perfect.
