Coastal Tin Miner's Cottage with sea views between St. Just & St Ives

We have just come back from the wonderfully relaxing, refreshing time ever. I really could have stayed forever!
The cottage was clean, beautifully decorated and really cosy. Waking up to views of the sea everyday was definitely a big bonus. We spent days out going to Sennen Cove and walking along the coastal path exploring the old tin mines. One of the highlights of the week was a long coastal walk to St Ives on Thurs which was 13.5miles and took us a total of 6.5hrs but was worth it. Such stunning scenery. After that we felt entitled to a few days rest and recuperation - reading, playing scrabble and yoga. We spent most evenings in next to the wood burning stove and eating lovely meals made in the surprisingly well equipped kitchen.
The cottage really is the most special place in the most wonderful location in the world and I feel very lucky to have been able to spend time there so thank you again!

This is a wonderfully quaint cottage, full of character and charm that was very clean and tidy throughout. The facilities may be considered limited, however, these do not detract from the holiday experience. It may prove difficult to cook full scale meals on the small cooker, however, we elected never to do so – and with a wealth of lovely and often affordable restaurants within walking distance or just a short drive away this proved to be an excellent decision. That’s not to say you can’t cook of course should you choose to do so.
The beds were comfortable and made for a good night’s sleep each night, and the cottage also offers a view over the sea from the bedroom windows which afforded us a few spectacular sunsets.
If you are used to showering, the bath room facilities may seem a little limiting. There is a shower over the bath but is simply attached to the taps and doesn’t have a riser or fix to the wall. This did not represent any difficulties for us, however, and it was quite a nice way to end a day, relaxing in a bath after exploring some of the local coastal paths or enjoying some time on the areas beaches.
There is plenty to do in the immediate area, the nearest beach we found being a small cove accessed along the coastal path. It does not have any facilities but was clean and quiet, though may be difficult to access for people with limited mobility. Having said that, there are many lovely beaches within a short drive, including Sennen which offers surfing, or the three miles of sandy beach a short drive away at Hayle.
If you are interested in sight seeing the cottage is ideally situated, being only a short drive from Lands End, Cape Cornwall and numerous tourist attractions in the area.
All in all we had a lovely holiday based at the cottage, and the owners had left a convenient store of information on local attractions and restaurants to get you started if you are not sure what to do.
I would definitely recommend the cottage to friends and would also consider returning if we were to holiday in that area again.

Very enjoyable stay in a stunning location with friendly locals - Great base for sightseeing - loved costal walks and weather was perfect - what more could anyone wish for!
