ST IVES THIRTY EIGHT YEARS AND STILL MAGIC

Advantages: FAMILY FRIENDLY
Disadvantages: Still looking for any.

...First went to St Ives with my girl friend in 1969, will go this year in September with the SAME Girl now my wife for our 36th Visit. The first time, we had arrived by the little train that runs from St Erth (On lthe main line) to St Ives, MAGIC. And we feel this is the best way to View St Ives. Hopefully it is Sunny (Always seems to be) sit on the RIGHT side of the train facing direction of Travel and glue your nose to the Window, Watch the miles of golden sands at Lelant then St IVES will appear floating on a sea of Blue water as good or even better than all the Med Resorts of Italy and the South of France. As a young Couple we went out to explore that first night, and could not work out why which ever street we went down we seemed to come to the Sea. Then in daylight viewing from the Top of the town you see that it is...

CAFFE PASTA ST IVES CORNWALL

Advantages: Good Large portions of pasta
Disadvantages: Lasagna, not as good as Steve makes

...This is one of my favourite eating Places in St Ives Cornwall. In 2008 we were not able to use it as there had been a fire in the building, which was badly damaged and took oabout a year to restore it, which as it was a listed building had to be back to how it was. It is located on Wharf Road so overlooks the Harbour. It has about 40 covers so is not overly large, but as it is popular Booking is strongly advised, even when we visit St Ives in October. As the name of the place CAFFE PASTA PIZZA suggests that is the main things on the menu, but there are also Steaks. The staff are very attentive without being obtrusive, and they obviously have been well trained with a good work ethic. Starters :- Soup, on the nights we were in Was Green Pea one night and Wild Mushroom the other. What I like is that you get a Large...

Review of Caffe Pasta St Ives, Cornwall

St Ives does it once again

Advantages: Not bad on price esp. as it works
Disadvantages: NONE though not advisble for sensitive skin

...with the St. Ives skincare range. ~SPECIAL INGREDIENTS~ As with all apricot scrubs the ingredient of course is apricot. So of course if you have an allergies to apricots or generally just can’t stand the stuff then I would not recommend this. Also and quite surprisingly to myself the invigorating apricot scrub contains a few varieties of nuts, e.g. Juglans Regia also known as walnut and also kernel oil. So…. WARNING: THIS PRODUCT CONTAINS NUT EXTRACTS ~APPLICATION~ The invigorating apricot facial scrub has a lot of “bitty” bits so is far rougher to touch than the others in the range (the gentle scrub and the blemish control). The kind people at St. Ives even provide instructions of how to use the exfoliator (…just incase you can’t figure it out yourself) Directions: 1.Moisten face and neck 2...

St Ives Apricot Scrub Blemish Fighting

Advantages: Great Scrub that does what it says ib the Packaging!
Disadvantages: May not be suitable for people with dryer skin types.

...This Review is on The St Ives Apricot Scrub Blemish Fighting. It is reccommended for people with Oily / Blemish Prone Skin. I first heard about this particular product when i was watching a Make-Up video on youtube. The lady in the video praised this product so i decided to buy it. It says on the lable that it "helps prevent blackheads and unclogs pores. Promotes healthier - looking skin in just 7 days". So what do i think about this St Ives Formula? WOW. I love this product. It is affordable at around £4.00 and this is a great price considering the scrub actually works for me. It has small ground up exfoliating beads and this removes the dead skin cells on the surface of your skin. This helps unclog pores around your face and therefore reducing the risk of breakouts. It is not a harsh product, as some exfoliaters can...

15 THE WARREN OLD COTTAGE ST IVES CORNWALL

Advantages: VIEWS VIEWS VIEWS
Disadvantages: Had to come home.

...If you are looking for a Holiday Cottage with all mod cons, stop now, but if you want one with a view to die for and great location read on. On our 39th Annual Visit to St Ives I thought I would give 15 The Warren a go. When ever I had done an availability search on WWW.STIVESHOLIDAYS.COM this cottage had often showed as available. What could be the problem I thought, so being inquisative I booked it. For the Week 11-18th October it would be £300, not the cheapest option but far from the dearest. This includes all Gas and Electric. Also payable is a returnable £100 damage deposit. This cottage sleeps 3. It is located on a street named the Warren, just two minutes from the Train Station and Bus Station, so ideal if like us you arrive by public transport. You enter through a Blue Wooden Front Door, ahead of you is...

St.Ives Apricot scrub-for "skin" deep beauty

Advantages: very affordable,good exfoliant and blackhead remover
Disadvantages: mildly dries theskin,can hurt the skin if not applied gently

...I never had much problems in my adolescent age with pimples,but all of a sudden ,started developing lots of blackheads and pimples(not many) ,a few months back.I was using cleansing milk thrice a week,did,nt help at all though.I happened to come across the ad of St.Ives Apricot scrub in a magazine,and decided to give it a try.I got the 150ml pack. On first application,I could feel the may be because I was not gentle while applying,it scraped my skin quite a bit.When I washed with water,it was still stinging,but when I looked at my face ,I found it was worth all that and more.the blackheads were mostly gone.My skin felt really rejuvenated and was soft velvety and glowing!!.I found beauty was "skin" deep afterall... Well, I kept applying it everyday then ,at the end of 1 week,my skin was dry.So,the bottomline is apply it as gently as...

Review of St Ives Apricot Scrub

One day as I was going to St Ives...

Advantages: very soft skin, easily absorbed
Disadvantages: cannot comment on the firming aspect yet

...You may be aware that I suffer from dry skin. This is probably my own fault due to laziness, I mean how long does it actually take to slap on some body lotion after coming out of the shower. Last week I vowed to myself that I would start taking more care of my skin. I went to Tesco and was pondering over the body lotion when this one caught my eye. ?St Ives Rosemary & Gingko Firming Body Lotion? the bottle said, and priced at only £3.99 for the 400ml bottle I picked up a bottle and put it in my trolley. There is a table on the back of the bottle promising the following results: Immediately eliminates dry, tight skin In 2 weeks skin feels softer and more supple In 4 weeks skin looks smoother and healthier In 8 weeks skin appears visibly firmer and more toned Being the cynic that I am, I did not think that I would actually...

TIBBLES COTTAGE FOR A ST IVES HOLIDAY

Advantages: LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION
Disadvantages: Have to climb two sets of stairs for the best view.

...TIBBLES COTTAGE, COURT COCKING, St IVES CORNWALL, is where we have just spent a week. The Cottage can be rented through Lanhams of St Ives. It is located in a small lane called Court Cocking ( do not ask the meaning of the name) which runs from the Harbour up to the main Street of St Ives called Fore Street. The front door is a Stable type door, which is about 10 yards from the Harbour, ideal in the morning to make a Coffee then sit by the Harbour enjoying the view. The cottage is 3 storied. GROUND FLOOR:- This is the main living area, at one end ,as can be seen in the photograph there is a small blue Settee in front of a sash window that looks out onto the lane. There are also 2 fairly comfortable chairs. I had pulled a muscle in my back the previous week but found these chairs OK. Also in this area are...
