Location

St Ives is a seaside town and port in Cornwall which lies to the north of Penzance and the west of Camborne on the coast of the Celtic Sea. In former times it was commercially dependent on fishing. However, with the decline in fishing this caused a shift in commercial emphasis and the town is now primarily a holiday destination. The town became a thriving artist community in the early twentieth century; this continues today, and the town is extremely popular year round.

St Ives has a railway station which offers a link to nearby St Erth, and thus the Penzance to London Paddington train service, as well as some CrossCountry services. It is also located approximately five miles from the A30, Cornwall's main road transport route, linking the county with the M5 at Exeter.

The Castle Inn enjoys a town centre location close to the harbour and enjoys considerable passing trade.
