St Ives is lovely, but it gets very busy. I would not advise you to drive there in the summer. Use either the bus, train or the park and ride. The view from the train is spectacular.

Good place for a walk and possibly see seals. There is a National Trust car park and also a good beach nearby. However, there are currents so possibly unsuitable for young children.
