BY TRAIN

Southern Comfort is about 15/20 minute walk from the St Ives train station, trains are operated by First Great Western. Most operate to and from St Erth where connections can be had into trains on the Cornish Main Line, but a few are extended to Penzance. Penzance is the hub for main line intercity trains from the rest of the country. The train ride into St Ives is very scenic and worth a return journey to Hayle.
