Jason and Robyn
The Rookery offers fantastic views across St Ives Harbour and Bay. A family run Guesthouse, always a warm welcome, a great location for all St Ives amenities. A stones throw from the beautiful beaches of St ives. Close to transport to take you all over Cornwall. Delicious breakfasts to set you up for a wonderful day in St Ives.
Our background is in fact theatrical previously running a chocolate box theatre in the very heart of St Ives. We have owned The Rookery for three years and it has been our delight to host people from near and far.
St Ives is known as the Jewel in Cornwall's Crown offering stunning white sand beaches. Glorious restaurants, bars and coffee shops as well as a variety of delightful shops. A plethora of art galleries and a wealth of history. There really is something for all to enjoy.
