Day 1 Morning departure for the journey to Cornwall and to St Ives for a four night stay.
Day 2 This morning you will travel to the pretty village of Mevagissey, a typical picture postcard style village, where pubs, cafes, galleries and shops cluster around the harbour walls and line the pretty streets. In the afternoon you will have free time in the city of Truro.
Day 3 An early start as you head to Penzance for the morning ferry to St Mary’s which takes 2 3/4 hours, and the ship is regularly joined by pods of dolphins and seabirds. Arrive in St Mary’s at mid-day. Plenty to see during your few hours on the island, take a stroll through Hugh Town, visit Porthcressa Beach and perhaps head to Buzza Tower to admire the views. The ferry departs at 16.30 hours to return to the mainland. Travel back to the hotel for a late dinner.
Day 4 Today you will have the day free to explore St Ives. Few resorts are as memorable, with lively streets, harbour and the fishing quarter, a warren of stone cottages and cobbled alleyways.
Day 5 After breakfast, depart the hotel and commence the homeward journey.
