Following last week's blog"The Magical History of Painting in St Ives: The Artists Who Were Drawn to Its Soft Light and Turquoise Sea" John and I decided that we should explore the area ourselves and take in the beauty of all the things St Ives and the surrounding area have to offer. If you're looking for a picturesque walk with plenty of art history thrown in, look no further than the route from Carbis Bay to St Ives.

We'll take a look at some of their work and explore the town that played such an important role in their development.
