Travel time between London and St Ives is approximately 6 hours so please factor this is to your arrival.

Travelling from London, the quickest route is via the M4 past Heathrow. However, if you have the time and inclination the M3 turns onto the A303, a beautiful scenic route past Stonehenge. From Yorkshire drive to the West towards Manchester or Birmingham and join the M5.

All routes join the M5 and once just past Exeter, turn off at junction 31 for the A30 heading towards Devon. Follow A30 to roundabout at Hayle and take the 2nd exit to Nut Lane and A3074 to St Ives town.

If you’d prefer to break the journey, Cheltenham, Gloucester or Bristol are about half way from Yorkshire. From London popular places to stop are the Cottswolds or Bath.

Bristol is 3.5+ hours and Exeter 2.5+ hours from St Ives but again flight pathways from Europe are limited so plan accordingly.
