St Ives food and drink festival
The well known and incredibly successful St Ives Food and Drink Festival is back at our local beach this weekend!
After the last festival in September, it’s making a return for a sunnier season from the 13th-15th May - and we can’t wait to get our hand on some more amazing cuisine.
Gather your friends, family and even your furry companions down at Porthminster Beach for a day of foody fun. The festival is filled with three days of culinary experts, a wide variety of food and beverages as well as all kinds of entertainment. The festival work with the very best local businesses to deliver the most delicious selection of food stands to the festival year after year.
With chefs such as Jack Stein and Emily Scott, and masterclasses by Pol Roger and St Austell Brewery, it’s the perfect weekend trip for any foodies - and a chance to spend the day in the Cornish sunshine.
It’s not just a day for adults though! Little ones will have plenty to do, from the bouncy slide to sports games, face painting, circus activities and more, there’s more than enough to make it the most enjoyable family day out.
And after a long weekend of indulging in tasty treats on the beach, where better than Tregenna Castle to rest for the next big day ahead? With a range of hotel rooms or self-catering properties, there’s room for everyone, but be quick as we have limited availability!
The festival is completely free to attend and the only tickets that you need to purchase are for the music events in the evening, which you can buy on their website (linked below).
Take a look at their website to find out more and be sure to book a stay with us for the perfect Cornish weekend.

The Sweet Buzz of Sustainability: Beehives at Tregenna Castle Resort
27 June 2024
Nestled within our expansive 72-acre resort are now four hives, home to thousands of honey bees. We’re thrilled to bolster our sustainability efforts, which will benefit the environment, the local community (once honey production begins), and the resort itself. Bees play a crucial role in maintaining biodiversity. As pollinators, they are responsible for the reproduction of many plant species, which in turn supports a wide range of wildlife. By hosting beehives, Tregenna Castle Resort contributes to the health of local ecosystems. The presence of bees ensures the proliferation of native flowers and plants, fostering a rich and diverse habitat for other insects, birds, and small mammals.
