The popular resort of St.Ives is only a short car journey away.

In the height of the hols/season when parking in St.Ives is very difficult it might be a good alternative to drive to the Park & Ride at Lelant Saltings and take the scenic 13mins train journey along the coast line into St.Ives. The galleries, shops and  seafood Restaurants along with the hustle and bustle of the resort is certainly something to be experienced.

For guest's staying at Taskus  who have planned to take part in the Christmas and New Year Festivities  St.Ives is renowned for
it would be advisable to book a taxi well in advance.

the Tate Gallery at St Ives, golf and trout fishing.
