Discover the magic of St Ives at this traditional harbourside pub that sits right at the heart of everything that makes the town so celebrated. Whether it’s the comfort of a roaring log fire during the cold winter months or the warmth of sun-baked sand on a hot summer’s day, the Lifeboat Inn serves as the perfect bolthole for it all, come rain or shine. 

Tuck into a menu that champions hearty pub classics and enticing specials, all crafted from the freshest seasonal ingredients. A tasty range of children’s dishes ensures little ones are replenished following an action-packed day on the beach. You can savour it all while gazing at the passing maritime activity and relishing one of St Austell Brewery’s award-winning beers.

St Ives has a wealth of things to see and do. Among the highlights are its many stretches of golden sands; from the surfer’s paradise of Porthmeor to the sheltered cove of Porthgwidden, a favourite with families. Further afield, popular destinations such as Penzance and the Minack Theatre lie within striking distance.

Treat yourself to a relaxing break at The Lifeboat in one of its five bedrooms. Each blends charming period features with a contemporary style, including two sea-facing double rooms that enjoy a cool coastal interior theme set to the backdrop of beautiful harbour views. 

The Lifeboat also has two self-catering apartments for those seeking an additional slice of luxury.
