The open-plan living space offers everything you could possibly need for an enjoyable self-catering stay, with a kitchen in which you can all come together and a comfortable sitting area. In the summer months, open up the sliding doors and relax with a chilled glass of wine on the balcony amongst the stunning sea views and watch the sunset.

Head down to the lower-ground-floor and out the door into your own private garden area, with ample seating for all and a barbecue. This spot is a brilliant place to spend a warm summer’s evening.

    Faultless. A beautiful, clean and modern property. Very comfortable. Stunning views and location. Quiet and peaceful but only a short walk from the village. Fabulous friendly and helpful owners. We will definitely return.

  • Liz

    Lovely cottage, peaceful surroundings, very cosy and comfortable with gorgeous views and within an easy walk of St Just. The owners were great and very helpful and the property had everything we needed for an amazing chilled out week away. There are some lovely walks locally and it is also a short drive away from Penzance, Lands End, St Michaels Mount and St Ives so caters to all types of holiday preference.
