Without the continued help of our sponsors and supporters it would simply not have been possible to deliver St Ives Food and Drink Festival 2011.
For self-catering holiday specialist Aspects Holidays, St Ives has always been and will always be its home.
For it is from the town that the company, which now has over 200 properties – from brand new luxury penthouse apartments through to wonderful, traditional fisherman’s cottages down in the town’s Digey, began life almost 21 years ago.
Today, Aspects plays host to thousands of holidaymakers who choose to make this beautiful part of West Cornwall their holiday destination every year.

Wine from a mythical land.
Chilean wine brand Isla Negra is named after and inspired by the beautiful seaside town of Isla Negra in Chile's Valparaiso region, home of romantic poet Pablo Neruda. This year Isla Negra is celebrating all that is inspiring about the UK coast by holding a nationwide search to find the UK's favourite coastal places.
Famed for its creative community and stunning beaches, St Ives seemed an ideal place to kick off the search and visitors to the festival will be able to try Isla Negra's range of wines, as well as upload their digital photos directly to the map of the UK's most inspiring coastal places for the chance to win prizes. For more information visit www.facebook.com/islanegrawine and look out for our vintage caravan on the Harbour Front the 20th to 22nd May 2011.
Set in 72 acres of private grounds, Tregenna Castle has panoramic views of St.Ives. It is a beautiful hotel rich in character and offers the rare opportunity to stay in a Cornish castle, as well as enjoying a range of leisure facilities, open to local residents as well as guests.
