Barnoon Long Stay car park

Location: Clodgy View W, Saint Ives TR26 1JF

Close to Tate St Ives and the town, while Barnoon is advertised as a long stay car park, you can actually park your car here for as little as an hour, although it is a little more expensive than the other options. There are 124 spaces, but it’s worth bearing in mind that there are quite a few steps to get down, so it’s not the easiest access.
