Pedn Olva, St Ives

Pedn Olva is a dog-friendly pub in St Ives where dogs are welcome inside, so the whole group can stay together whatever the Cornish weather throws at you.

Open daily from half past eight in the morning until eleven at night, it's the kind of flexible coastal stop that fits neatly around a long beach walk or a lazy afternoon in town. The pub sits just over half a mile from the centre of St Ives, making it a handy spot for visitors exploring this corner of Cornwall with their dog. The indoor welcome means no pavement duty and no awkward lead-juggling outside while someone fetches the drinks.

With dogs allowed throughout, Pedn Olva offers that rare coastal-pub luxury: a proper seat indoors with your dog at your feet, sand still drying on their paws and the day's adventure comfortably behind you both.
