You can catch the train from st lives, the branch line to carbis bay. Or you can drive into hale train station park and ride back on the branch line back 1 stops at carbis and then st Ives. And then back to hale to pick up car, whichever one it’s loverly scenery. At carbis walk down the hill to carbis beach, hard walk back up though. Great respect for Cornwall people, keep it clean take rubbish home, don’t bury dog poo. It’s there for all of us to enjoy 😊. Thanks
Thanks for the info Carbis Artist! 🙏🏼 we did hope to try the train, but we never thought to take it from St Ives to Carbis Bay 😅 I’ve pinned your comment so others can take your advice 👍🏼😁
Hayle not hale
St. Erth to St. Ives.
Have good day Cory do you and your husband still like me ?
I'm Cornish and am lucky to have lived here all my life. However don't confuse the idyllic life on holiday with the life of many local people, struggling to make ends meet with low paid casual work. Add the housing crisis by people buying up homes for holiday lettings and pricing local people (cleaners, care assistants, teachers, dentists etc etc) out of the housing market, both for buying and renting. The community is dying.
It’s good to have some locals chime in on the topic 🙏🏼 we have heard that’s the case many time over and all around Cornwall it seems. We live in Newquay and see the same amongst our friends. Some have left the county for a brighter future instead of struggling to make ends meet with low paid work.
We even saw this happen in Byron Bay, Australia but interestingly once all of the service workers were priced out of the area there was a huge shortage of workers in the hospitality industry. Subsequently the rates that cleaners could charge went through the roof! How ridiculous right?
@@cjexplores We welcome all to Cornwall, it's just a shame that so many people struggle to get by and the community slowly dies. Go to Mousehole, Mevagissey or Padstow and you'll struggle to find much of a community in winter.
On the plus side, it is occasionally sun on a day off 😎
@@hazza5999 yes we agree! We know a lot of people in Newquay who plan trips away in either summer or winter depending on their line of work. It seems to be a seasonal choice. But we do love the winter vibes in Newquay. Such lovely, low-key community events 🥰
@@cjexplores subscribed
@@hazza5999 glad to have you along! We are currently up in Scotland exploring the highlands for the first time but back in Cornwall this week 😁 maybe we will see you around sometime!
My wife and I visited from the States in Sept. 1995. My father was stationed there for a year with the 29th inf. division before leaving for the D Day invasion. Beautiful town, friendly gracious people. We stayed at the Pedna Olva right on the water.
Hi Michael, you have a fantastic memory! Thanks for watching 🙏🏼❤️ I wonder how much it’s changed since then?
@@cjexplores I hope it has not changed much. Everytime I watch Doc Martin I am reminded of St. Ives.
@@michaelrichardson6051 aww 🥰 another lovely Cornish village. That series has finished filming now 🥲
This was my hometown I was lucky to be brought up here so many good memories.
What a beautiful place to grow up! Charlotte grew up in Newquay - Cornwall is an amazing place to spend your childhood 🥰
@@cjexplores have good day Cory you and your husband still like me ?
I spent 9 years every summer in st ives with the family starting from when i was about 6 years old .we went with mum dad sister cousins and Nan uncle and aunt . Had such great family times . So many good memories here. Im now 48 with 5 daughter and its like a piece of me is missing i never went back always said i would. Seeing this now makes me wanna set off and drive down there with my family .looks like me and the mrs are going to have to plan it out ill take them all the places i used to love . Nan passed away a few years back think i will make a plack and set it somewhere on the rocks where we all used to walk . Miss you Nan .
Awww Tristan that’s a beautiful story. You should definitely go back. You could invest in a park bench with her plaque on it, I’m not sure how you go about getting on built and installed but we have so many all over Newquay and I’ve seen them on “The Island” in St Ives as well 👏🏼
That could be such a beautiful family bonding moment, unveiling a memorial seat for your Nan with all of your kids ❤️🙏🏼❤️
I first went to St Ives young and in love with my wife to be, 35 years later and married with 3 daughters and 3 grandchildren we still love to visit. It feels so homely to us all, my daughters now visit regularly. Can’t wait to go again, we get homesick. 😎
Awww 🥰 that’s adorable ❤️ thanks for sharing!
I bought a colouful painting of St Ives bay for my wall and I've never been to st Ives or seen what it looks like till this video, I paused it at the same angle the painting is at, it's by Jo Gough and I got it from the Range shop who had about 20 canvas prints, its like a little window in my wall to sun, surf and sea and an impression of colourful wild flowers! What a lovely day to be there, I must visit if I ever holiday again in Cornwall! 💁♂️
@@CrustyBiker oh wow! Amazing that we captured the same scene 🤩 you definitely have to go at least once x
I would give anything to live in Cornwall for the rest of my life!
❤️❤️❤️ I believe in you! Make it happen 🤩
I agree, I’d love to be a local
It's better to travel, than to arrive.
Just do it, we did it. Once you’ve done a couple of winters, you’ll settle in beautifully. Good luck 😍😍
@@nd7941lol I'm in CA , I used to live in cornwall. Tempting to move back but then I remember!
St.Ives ist so so beautiful. I´ve been there in 2019. The water is so cristal blue and the town is gorgeous. Hope to return there one day. Thanks for the video full of memorys :) Greetings from Germany
Hello and thank you so much for watching our St Ives vlog all the way from Germany! It’s a beautiful town..we really enjoy it there. Maybe one day you can visit again 🥰
We celebrated our honeymoon in St Ives in July last year. We fell in love with the place. We returned for my wifes birthday in October & we are booked in at the Sloop pub holiday lets to return again this year & we can't wait. Our dream is to retire here but at the moment it is only a dream.
@@leewatts8147 awwww 🥰🥰🥰 that’s so sweet Lee. Thanks for sharing. You guys should definitely start taking steps towards realising your dream. What’s one thing that you can do each week that gets you 1% closer??
OMG, I need to visit St Ives. And totally sold when you showed the vegan breakfast! 🌱
Yewww 🤙🏼 🌱
I’ve lived here for half of my life.. It’s Beauty is holding me hostage! 😍 St Ives Syndrome 😁🥴☀️
Beautiful Video of A Beautiful, Heavenly place ✌️🌟💜
Thanks Polly 🙏🏼❤️ we can’t blame you for getting yourself stuck there 🤣
I moved to Somerset in 2006 and my daughter lives in Hayle Cornwall I would not consider living anywhere else to me the the West Country is one of the most Beautiful places
It truly is 🤩 we have just visited Pedn Vounder beach and it completely blew us away! 🤯
Beautiful views, we go every September. Cornwall was originally (well, 100+ years ago) advertised as a winter holiday destination. I have lived on the North West coast all my life and worked in the Hotel trade which is where all my income has come from,not as pretty as Cornwall but we rely on the tourist trade heavily also and there are second homes here as well. So we can't all have what we want. Good video, well done! And yes, we also call the tourists "grockles" as well as they do in Cornwall!
Hi Neil! Thanks for sharing, interesting to hear the history of the advertising… I think the second home thing isn’t unique to Cornwall, we hear the same thing in parts of AU and NZ as well!
My Great Grandparents moved from Cambourne Cornwall in 1901 to Victoria British Columbia Canada on Vancouver Island one day I’m going to cross the pond and see beautiful Cornwall
Awesome video!
Wow! Yes you really should make an effort to come back, I’d recommend visiting in May/June 😁❤️🙏🏼
My grandparents moved to South Africa from Camborne 30’s moved back to Camborne in 1948 and left for SAA gain 2 years later. Fortunate to have visited so many times . Proud Cousin Jack
Your second pronunciation of Porthmeor was correct. Porthme..er 😄 love St Ives but never visit in tourist season as just too busy. And very sadly all the holiday homes 😢 informative video though 🥰
Thanks Julie!! Great to get confirmation. Charlotte had it right 🤣🙌🏼 me being the foreigner read it as it’s spelled. Big mistake in the UK 😅
Great vid thanks! We love to visit St Ives when we’re in Cornwall. We park at St Erth train station and take the GWR train to St Ives, via Carbis Bay. The views are just stunning.
We’ve heard so much about his train and to be honest, we were supposed to take it that day but we ran out of time! Thanks for sharing ❤️
St.Ives was my summer home during school holidays in my younger years till about the age of 16, back in 1978. I had family in Carbis Bay, just a short distance away and my brothers sisters and I lived with them during those weeks every year. I haven’t been back since 1999 but I should. This was nostalgic! ❤️
How lovely for you!! I bet it’s changed a fair bit since 1999! 🤣 glad you enjoyed it ❤️
@@cjexplores I saw many changes during those years, I’m sure it’s very different now 👍
St Ives is my happy place. We go every year and stay with local b&b’s and support the local economy. Apparently 300 years ago my ancestors worked in the tin mines, so I feel like I’m coming home. My fave place for a special treat, Porthminster Beach Cafe - food is heaven, and Barbara Hepworth museum is fascinating piece of history. Plus watching so many clever artists at work in their studios. Thank you for making my day, sat at home withCovid for company, so this lifted my spirits 🥰
❤️🥰❤️ awwww that’s so beautiful. Thank you for sharing. We feel a massive sense of home in Cornwall too! So glad you enjoyed our video, we are wishing you a speedy recovery 🙏🏼 Cory and Char x
I'm going here on a week holiday, this video is telling me what I need for my trip
Thanks for the review Paige ❤️🙏🏼😊
Aww the town I've spent 15years working but can't afford to lice near because of holiday homes.... wonderful
Swan! We feel your pain, where have you ended up moving to?? ❤️
@@cjexplores atm I'm only 10miles away but now my partner is pregnant I can only imagine where we'll end up 😅😅
@@Swan234 oh wow, congratulations! Cornwall is a wonderful place to grow up, so much wild nature and also so many creative people around 😁
Wishing you all the best for this next chapter on your journey ❤️
Swan234:What I don't get,is why councils allow locals to be priced out.Is it all just greed?
@@susanmccormick6022 honestly... it has to be greed
there was a ruling in 2016 that new houses would be for local people who work locally... there's new houses being built but turns out they ain't for us 🤷♂️
I want to go to st ives and split the trip up with exmoor national park! I cant believe you have done videos on both thank you so much !!!!! ❤❤❤
@@ThriftWithJayne777 aww thanks Jayne ❤️ glad you’re enjoying all our South West content!
Beautiful historical buildings and nice beach
Always more to explore than what we cover in our vlogs. Our videos are just a taster! 😊
Just watched. Brought back memories.
We’re glad! Thanks Stuart
The whole presentation of your videos is absolutely fantastic . Easy to watch with the right amount of comment and very smooth flowing . Have been to lots of the places that you have visited so know how informative you both are . Re-read my comment and started laughing when my girlfriend said it sounded like I was some professional critic . I'm normally quite laid back having at one time lived in North East Victoria for twelve years .
😁 thank you John 🙏🏼❤️ We appreciate the kind words 🥰 always good to know we are on the right track! When was the last time you were over in Cornwall??
@@cjexplores That was last year when I went down to Devon on holiday with my girlfriend and went off for long days out . My girlfriend's favourite place is next to me while I'm driving . I keep telling her to look at the scenery not me . She replies , ' I am '.
@@johngaskell1467 awww 🥰🥰 well that's sweet ❤ hopefully you guys have some more road trips planned this summer 🤩
Thank you for the video, I remember going surfing at Porthmeor regularly in the 70's as a young 'un! I was so lucky as my aunt and uncle lived in St Ives so it became a 2nd annual holiday for my family. Recall visiting' The Sloop Studios' lots of times. My cousin was also a lifeboat volunteer so used to spend fun times at the lifeboat house on the harbour beach. Great times ❤️
Sounds like a wonderful childhood growing up 🥰 glad you enjoyed revisiting Tony 😊✌🏼
Tony Williamson:Greetings from ex surfer girl now landlocked.Do u still catch waves?
@@susanmccormick6022 Hi, the last time, I rode was probably 10 years ago in Thailand with sloppy waves. The vibe was cool, the expected waves on Kamala and Kata, not so much, Still they are beautiful resorts. Had fun with the locals riding capillary waves and would return in a heartbeat!
@@tonywilliamson3532 Nice to hear from you.I've a friend who waxes lyrical about Thailand but even before I was grounded due to a stupid decision,I wouldn't have gone east 'Not my bag' as one of my bro in laws would say.
@@susanmccormick6022 even before you were 'grounded' it would have been safer than a night out in most British cities /towns rather than in Thai resorts, I've seen much more issues in the UK. The Thai cops don't mess about if an idiot steps out of Line
Oh amazing to watch every where you go is it pretty enjoy able look so beautiful area buildings are awesome magic land
Island city so splendid all thanks to its .
Thank you for your beautiful comment 🥰 we are very happy to take you to these amazing places through our RUclips videos 🙌🏼
OMG I LOVEEEEEE ST IVES IT IS JUST BRILLIANT I ALWAYS GO THERE I MAKE SO MANY GOOD MEMORIED!
St Ives is the best place on earth. My parents took us there every year for a holiday.
It is so wonderful isn’t it?!
@@cjexplores it certainly is 😍
Glad you enjoyed our vlog 😁
My wife and I came here on a coach trip back in July 2021 we loved it shame it was during covid
Oh no, I bet it was quite quiet then, you oughta come back when it’s hustling and bustling, much more fun 🤣
@@cjexplores I agree but when it's really busy you can't move as much but now covid rules are all over we can come whenever we want once I start working again
It's nice to see you there lovely lady also i am loving this beautiful beach of st. Ives👍
Thank you ❤️🙏🏼❤️
Thank you too that's nice ❤🙏❤.. We plan to go there oneday that would be nice😊
@@lanyhardwick3942 it’s a lovely place to visit. Try taking the train from St Erth x
I live in st. ives and the pronunciation of porth MeEoOr beach had me in fits😂
🤣🤣😅 glad you saw the funny side 🙏🏼❤️
Hello from a St.Ives local, great video very enjoyable 🙂 Porthmeor 'Me err' lol
Thank you for clearing that up! 😁
Off here next week thanks for showing me round
Have the best time! 🙌
It must be truly lovely to live in Cornwall.The towns and villages are gorgeous.Love your videos.Thank you so very much.
Thanks Gannes 😁 nice to see you again ❤️ we love living here. It truly feels like home 😍
Most people hate living in Cornwall because of how it's treated by the rest of the uk
@@Swan234 we haven’t noticed how it gets treated by other counties???
Not when it is rammed with tourists, it has been hell for the last two years.
@@TheBuckspygmy trouble in paradise? It’s not really designed for a huge influx of visitors every day is it?
My favourite place in the U.K., always book a holiday there every year.
We don’t blame you Dylan! 🙌🏼
As a person who goes down there every weak cuz I’m local I can say it is one beautiful place and I am very lucky to live their!
Nice one Jacksie ❤️👏🏼 nothing like someone appreciating their daily life 🥰
@@cjexplores it’s true the seaside is beautiful
Just came back from St. Ives yesterday. It's so amazing and really you've got more than London in England! Seafood every day and they are superb!
Awwww 🥰 lovely to hear! Glad you had a wonderful time 🙏🏼✨❤️
St ives is so beautiful I feel so lucky to live here 💕💕💕
How is it in winter? I'm interested as love the idea of living there, but have heard it's completely dead and depressing in winter. Is that true?
@@andreawillmore its not dead, but i see where your coming from it can get quite cold and rainy. you get less tourists around that time and its in my opinion a much nice time for locals (plus the whole new years night party through the streets and christmas vibe here and FANTASTIC!) overall i think its a pretty great place to live throughout the year! hope this helped!
I watched the short and you told me that you had a full video here! Wow! Keep on going! My family went to visit my uncle, aunt, and cousin. Then we went to Cornwall! We went to St Ives, and my mom was freaking out because she watched the doc martin show! I used to hate doc martin and thought it was boring, but recently I started watching the full series start to finish, and I am now mid season 4! Don't spoil anything 😝
😂😂😂 that’s amazing! Did you here the show has finally finished?!
Great video. Very insightful. I may visit there soon. Thanks
Fantastic, fingers crossed you get a stunning day like this 🤞🏼 🤩
Bouzouki music at 9' wow loved that touch guys :)
I knew it was from Greece but didn’t know the instrument. I really feels like holiday vibes to me 😁 ❤️
Nice place. Thanks for sharing 😊
Thanks Trie ❤️
Absolutely loved this!! You feel like you know a place, but sometimes there are places you walk straight past. Thank you….subscribed!!!!!
Awww thanks ND 🙏🏼❤️ so nice to read comments like this 😁
Just been to st ives and went down to the front (well drove through as it was monsoon weather) even then it looked lovely with the little houses and rustic nature of it,i have been to cornwall and devon a few times and love it,went to padstow and will never go again! Way too crowded and old rick everywhere,i like the guy but its overkill.
We think that even when the weather is wild the Cornish coastline is one of the most beautiful rugged places to be 😍
POV : you live here and this is rlly funny to watch
Most of the grass in Australia isn’t even Australian to be honest lol The beach is lovely in Cornwall but I just watched a drone video on Flaherty beach in York Peninsula South Australia and it looks surreal ! I would love to try a Cornish pie In Cornwall and I am sure there are vegan one’s .Happy travels !
Hi Steve! They are Cornish Pasty’s and yes you have to try one!! Thanks for the lovely message 😁
You could have done the walk from St, Ives to Carbis Bay.
Thanks David, we’ll look into it 😁
Great videos of my favourite part of the entire world.
Thank you Julian ❤️🙏🏼 glad you enjoyed it!
Porthmeor is pronounced Porthmeer; and Porthgwidden is Weddn beach. (Born at 14 Island Road) - Great video!
Thanks Mark! 🙌🏼 appreciate the easy pronunciation tips ☺️
Beautiful content guys!!!! St Ives is just beautiful
Thanks Karl! Yes it is really lovely there 🤩 we had such a stunner of a day too!
Nice to look at but slowly being ripped apart by overdevopement pvc and botch by wealthy Londoners who care not about preserving the oldie world charm and character of this lovely atlantic fishing village but only about making a quick buck ,and the corrupt council let them get away with it .
It’s been a while since we were there last, it’ll be interesting to see the changes when we return…
Love that intro! You got me hooked straight away!
Aww 🥰 my guy!! Thanks man 🙏🏼❤️
We Loved St Ives when we went the other week, hoping our video does it justice like yours does!
Thanks mate 🙏🏼 it’s a lovely place to visit 😁
@@cjexplores Its one of my favourite places in the world
my friend runs the golden lion down there in st ives, (the pub not the hotel as there are two places with the same name, names craig. if you see him say Ash from Blackpool says hi, and refer to his chubbyness lol )
🤣🤣🤣 no worries Ash we will pass it on if we are in the area again 😜
did u guys swim? how cold is the water? is it swimmable?
i love cornwall and can't wait to go. it looks soooo beautiful.
Hey! We didn’t swim at St Ives but we regularly swim around Cornwall…it’s not bad but we are used to it 😂 comfortable enough to swim/snorkel for 15 mins without a wetsuit! It’s about 15c now. 😃
I'm planning to visit St Ives solo.. 😍
Nice! Have a wicked time 😊🙌🏼
Great video!!
You guys need to come check out the new forest!😊
Tell us where! 😁
@@cjexplores well I would definitely say Lyndhurst (capital of the New Forest) is a must then places like lymington,burley,brockenhurst,
Beaulieu and lepe beach.
Sorry information overload 🤣🤣there are so many great places to visit here 😊
Shout if you need any advice/info if you ever plan to visit👍
Keep up the content it’s great!
Thanks @Diskonap! 🙏🏼 we will be exploring all of the UK during our time here and I’m sure we will fit in a visit to New Forest! Thanks for the recommendations, we’ve pinned it on our map 😉
We were there in 2018 and there's not many nicer places on a sunny day.
Glad you agree 😁👍🏼
I must visit here, great channel, subbed 👍
Thanks 😁🙏🏼
I live in Carbis Bay! 👋 🌊 ❤
Lucky you!! 😻
I've lived in Cornwall for virtually half my life and am now 57 years old. Avoid high season if you want to come here. May, June, Sept, and Oct are the best months. Quieter and cheaper. Living here is great. Lots of jobs if you're unfussy and prepared to do the hours as many
EU workers have gone home since Brexit. It is difficult to find rentals down here that are affordable for the young, so they don't stay. If you're coming here to live accept you will have to compromise. Less money but higher quality of life.
Great summary of living in Cornwall Richard, thank you 🙏🏼 ❤️😊
Wow am goin ther next week
Woohoo! Crowds should be less now 😉 enjoy your trip!
Hi! Thank you for the great video 😊 I’m going to Newquay in 3 weeks for a mini moon with my husband (well he will be then haha) but I’d love to visit St Ives as well. Would you recommend driving there or getting the train?
We would recommend driving to St Erth Park n Ride and taking the beautiful scenic train around Carbis Bay 🤩
@@cjexplores thank you! 😀
Lovely place!
Wonderful! A lot of memories there for a lot of people 🥰
good editing. Thanks from Bangladesh 🌿
Thank you! 🙏🏼❤️
Although I love St Ives & the surfing,I lived in Fowey b4 my fatal mistake.So for me,Fowey Cornwall,Brent Knoll Somerset,Dawlish,Devon.I have lived in many places but my heart will always be in the SW.Kernow Kensa.

@@susanmccormick6022 well Char is from Cornwall and I am from little old New Zealand 😊 have not explored Fowey and Mousehole yet but we have been to Mevagissey once before. We will be sure to visit all those spots while we are hear for the next month or so 😉 and yes, I’ve bought a foam surfboard and have taken up surfing! It’s so rewarding when you catch a good wave and ride the face of it 🤩 🏄♂️
@@cjexploresThanks for response You're right,surfing is exhilarating.I think I would like to try kite surfing.How about you?
@@susanmccormick6022 not sure I’m ready for kite surfing! 🤣

Hi Fidel, I wish we could help but I really don't know what's available there at the moment, places come and go. But your best bet would be to check out booking.com or airbnb.co.uk
been here countles times love cornwall . and the isles of silly
We have yet to explore the Isles of Scilly! It’s certainly on our list though 😁
@@cjexplores Stayed there 3 days in 2001 went on the Helicopter and been on the boat from penzance twice Magical place truly magical James

It’s funny to see someone treat my home as holiday park
Haha we’re based in Newquay - we know that feeling too
Although I live in Cornwall, St. Ives is far too rammed with tourists for me to visit it.
What part of Cornwall are you in Fred?? We are in Newquay, which can get a bit busy in summer too. I say a bit busy, we go from 20,000 inhabitants to 120,000 🤯
@@cjexplores The Lizard Peninsula, and the last two years have been hell due to far too many tourists.
@@TheBuckspygmy let’s hope this year is a tad quieter 🤞🏼
New to your channel . Loved you Australian reviews especially Perth … can I ask what gimbal you use for your blogs and what drone ?
Of course! We use the Ronin SC as a gimbal and we had the Mavic Mini as our drone. I know now there is a Mini 2 and a Mini 3 Pro. But the mini was pretty good
Guys may I ask where is your favourite place of all the places you have visited in Cornwall ? I am thinking to go to St Mawes. It will be my first time in Cornwall but St Mawes seems smaller with less to do. I’d like to go somewhere with lots of restaurants, cafes and shops. I’m not sure if they offer halal food there?
Hi Susan! Our favourite place has to be on the north coast. The cliffs, the surf, the beautiful Atlantic Ocean. Our favourite place we’ve stayed in Cornwall has to be at Watergate Bay hotel in the Beach Lofts. It’s a a good mixture of quiet village and not too far from the hustle and bustle of Newquay. It comes at a price though! Maybe even Bedruthan Hotel would be a good shout in the same region 😊 we can’t comment on the Halal food either sorry!
All view of nature up to super sea water up to super every corner amazing calss up there church vintage nice love all tha think. U look like model Ur neklise good.
Super views!! The colours are so beautiful in Cornwall. Just look at that turquoise water 🤩❤️
Yes ur right mate.
What is the song called at the start also I went to st ives 2 months ago and now I’m going back this week end for a week ❤❤
Amazing, the song is called Daylight by Matt & Kim 😊
I've just come across your channel so I'm about to binge! love St Ives, I've bought my favourite Jack Wills shorts from there!🤩🤩 Did you manage to see the pod of Dolphins that are supposed to hang out just outside the harbour? #lifegoals love your dynamics together! 🥰🤙
Hi Mark 👋🏼 nice to meet you! We did not see the famous pod of dolphins unfortunately. Yesterday we got to swim with a seal in Newquay harbour though 😂 I hope you enjoy our other videos too 😁✌🏼

It's hell living there when there's millions of tourists plugging up town every summer so you're physically unable to go there
It does get like that down here in summer!! In saying that though, a few of our friends who have holiday homes and Airbnbs say that they still have availability this summer and last year they were fully booked by now!
I love you guys.
Thanks for your support Raul ❤️🙏🏼
Been told the town is run by 4/5 families, they own and run most of the best cafes/ restaurants and the like , talk about Mafia, apart from that it’s my favourite place in England.
Hahaha sounds like a conspiracy to me - I’m in 🤣 there was a family in Portreath called the Bassetts, they owned a large portion of West Cornwall, could it have been them??
@@cjexplores Probably, I was told the names a couple of years ago but forgot, Cornish Bakery is one of their businesses, Peppers pizzeria, the Firehouse , Cintra Seafood restaurant, Seafood Cafe, the Cornish Bakehouse,and the Balcony Restaurant , plus many , many more in St Ives and throughout Cornwall, been told Caribs Bay hotel is also theirs but not sure.

@@cjexplores Loved all your videos from Australia, my home country, so I'll be heading to a number of places you highlighted. Cheers
Ah wonderful!! Australia is such a diverse country, we loved our time there 🥰 wishing you amazing travel experiences!
Half of the 'locals' aren't locals at all and have migrated there themselves over the years, but they are often the most snobby over other 'Emmets' (Cornish slang for tourist).
Yes this is 100% true! We currently live in Newquay and it is difficult to meet an adult who was actually born in Cornwall! We don’t blame them though, it’s such a beautiful part of the country 🇬🇧
Gerard Gould:Also grockles.Know that one?Know what I found in a local shop recently?Real Cornish Clotted Cream!So I spread it on my scones & almost smelled the ocean.My cats liked it too.If only I could rem where I found it....
@@cjexplores You surf dudes?Surf Mecca when I lived back home.I miss the ocean but am grateful for two rivers & a canal & the house is close to trees & a Garth.
@@susanmccormick6022 yes we have been in the ocean nearly everyday living here. Trying to learn to surf as well 🏄♂️
Same as over here in West Wales it our Cornwall I go and people cross the street when they see me and lock they're car doors lol
It's a great place to visit
Yes! 🤩 we do love to visit. Have you taken the train?
@@cjexplores no I always drive.. long way but worth it. I was down there only a couple of weeks ago 🙂
@@thelittlethingsinlife239 oh nice! Where from? It’s always worth it 😉
@@cjexplores I'm just north of Manchester. Where are you from?
@@thelittlethingsinlife239 oh awesome. We are based in Newquay for now, but we’ve just been up that way in the Lake District actually. We saw some beautiful sights. The sunset last night was unreal!!
Brilliant. We are down in 3 weeks 😊
Thanks Andrew! Fingers crossed the weather is this gorgeous for you!
@@cjexplores thank you. Staying in Hayle . On Riviere Towans.
@@andym1908 lovely! Check the pinned comment from Carbis Artist about the train from Hayle ☝🏼
We normally get the train from the new hub at St Erth . Cheaper for parking etc . And an open ticket . 🎟
@@andym1908 that’s the way mate 👍🏼 nice one. Saves on congestion in St Ives too! 👏🏼
Cool🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thanks for watching!
Good video.
Thanks Knower!! 🙌🏼
Keep away please its tough enough without you lot buying up houses which are needed for people who live and work ( try to ) here !!!
Thanks Rich, hang in there mate!
@notme1345 it’s a tricky situation isn’t it! You want the tourists to invest in visiting and supporting the economy but without causing the cost of living to soar!
Lot's of hidden poverty in st ives. Housing prices extortionate and unobtainable for the working class locals.
Thanks Looney, we’ve seen it before and I’m sure we will see it again 😭
Good video one point though it's the sea not ocean .bro.
The mighty Atlantic! Yes correct 😅
Hi can u please tell which month you travelled
April 😉 little bit chilly. But less crowds than summer!!
@@cjexplores thank you so much for your reply loved all your videos ❤️
@@swatisahoo6368 awesome, glad we could help!!
Nicc♥️
Hi what month did you guys go in was it May?
Hey! Yes we were there just last month 😊
Why the thick heavy coat while everyone else is wearing summer gear? very odd indeed!
It’s lightweight and thin. This was filmed in April & really wasn’t all that warm 😆(plus we’d just arrived back from summer in Aus 🥵)
What a beautiful city. I cannot wait to visit GB next year and again on our drive around the World. Thanks for sharing. We look forward to keeping up. Check ours if you want.
Thanks guys!! We will continue to show the best bits for you to pin on your travel map 😁 next week we are in Scotland! 🏴
St Ives is a town not a city. A city requires to have a cathedral 🙂
@@MostDeliciousSue and a McDonald’s 🤣
@@MostDeliciousSue ruclips.net/video/kBaLb1C4WAg/видео.html
@@MostDeliciousSue ah. Interesting differentiation. Catholic thing?
My home town,nice to see her on here just watch out for the "flying rats"
Yes! We managed to avoid them for the most part! Thanks Gaz ❤️
gazza7uk:Aw,don't call them that.I know they can be little devils,but I still like seeing them even here so far from the ocean.Miss it every day.
@@susanmccormick6022 you have no idea, the Gulls here in St Ives are savage, they attack everyone who has food, i had my own experience many years ago sitting on the beach with my 18 month old son in his buggy eating chips, they mobbed him, stole his chips and cut his face so i had one of those little kids fishing nets, i turned it around so the thick end was whip like and slapped one of the fookers across its head, it staggered across the beach and then flew off, a family who were obviously from up north started all that aaawww crap giving me shit even tho my son was bleeding so i just grabbed the rest of the bag of chips and threw it right between them, oh dear guess what happened? they got totally swarmed by at least 50 of the bloody things so dont tell me aaawwww
Wow 😮 yesterday we were in our garden in Newquay feeding our cats and one the seagulls grabbed our cat’s fluffy tail! They can be so nasty!
How do you know someone's a vegan, don't worry they'll tell you.
Exactly! 🤣🤣🤣
I DIDNT KNOW BEACHES HAVE CLEAR WATER! I AM INDIA AND IS VERY DIRTY
Yes the waters can be beautiful in the summer in UK 😳
