All our luxury cottages in St Ives are fully equipped with all the essentials to whip up a traditional Christmas dinner – we’ll even supply the turkey tray and the crackers as part of our festive concierge. However, if cooking isn’t part of the plan, here are some recommendations for restaurants that will be serving up Christmas Lunch in and around St Ives this year…
