Welcome to

The Sloop Inn

One of Cornwall’s oldest and most famous Inns, a favourite haunt of locals, fishermen, artists and tourists all year round. Believed to date from around 1312 AD, the Sloop Inn is situated right on the harbour front at St Ives, with only a cobbled forecourt and road separating it from the sea.
