About this property

Sennen Cove 2 miles

Kitticarn is located on the cliff top above the secluded Gwenver Beach and adjoining Sennen Cove beach which are approximately 8 miles from Penzance. This is the ideal location to completely get away from it all and experience the wild Cornish coastline and countryside at their finest.

At dawn the most stunning, far reaching views stretch all the way to the Isles of Scilly on a clear day. At dusk picturesque sun sets often paint the sky a myriad of colors and dance across the ocean. The glorious milky way is not dampened by any light pollution and the occasional lights flickering in the distance from passing ships add yet further intrigue.

The moment you drive down the quiet lane leading to Kitticarn you will realise that your holiday has started.

Driving up the grassy shared access (with neighbour) to Kitticarn please park in front of Kitticarn. Your eyes will be drawn to the amazing views before entering into the cosy open plan living area with kitchen, seating and dining area. There are two bedrooms (a double and a bunk room - only suitable for children) and a compact shower room. Directly outside is a tiered paved / graveled area with picnic bench. This leads onto a large undulating natural grassed area which is perfect to relax on, gaze at the ocean and breathe in the fresh sea air.

Stepping onto the coastal path you can enjoy amazing cliff walks in both directions right from the door. Head South towards Land's End which is just under 3 miles away, or North towards Cape Cornwall where seals are often seen basking on the rocks below.

Gwenver Beach is approximately a 20 minutes walk accessed from the top of the cliff down steep steps. It is known for its surf and blue water and as one of the most secluded and quiet beaches in the area, and can be quite a sun trap on a warm day. Adjoining is the easily accessible and popular beach of Sennen Cove offering one of the finest stretches of sand in Cornwall. Ideal for families with younger children and those not wishing to attempt the steps of Gwenver Beach. There are car parks directly behind the beach and at the top of the cliff. Sennen is a fishing village and harbor that still retains much of the atmosphere of times gone by. Shops, cafe and pub can be found here including the superb Ben Tunnicliffe Restaurant at Surf Beach Bar where fish caught in Sennen Cove appears on the menu.

Kitticarn provides a cosy base from which to enjoy the great outdoors and local attractions.

The small fishing village of Sennen Cove is situated close to Land’s End in Cornwall. The village has a lifeboat station, church, a couple of shops, a café plus two popular gastropubs. The town of St Just is the nearest town to Land’s End and has several monument and prehistoric antiquities, including a Bronze Age settlement at Cape Cornwall.

    Our only issue was the bathroom stayed really damp as there is no window but it did not spoil our stay. A beautiful quiet spot, great views and a lovely comfy bed could not ask for more.

    The tea, coffee etc., was very thoughtfully left for us and didn't last long. Stunning sea views and a very secluded, quiet place to stay but am ideal base for getting out and about. The owners greeted us, but didn't disturb us at all. A special mention about leaving my glasses behind, one telephone call and they were put in the post immediately and I received them the next day, how's that for prompt service Thank you. Would definitely stay again.

    It’s location was great for the beach. The accommodation was clean and comfortable. However, we booked a pet friendly accommodation and , after our booking, this property was changed to a ‘no pet property’. Consequently, on arrival we were told, by the owners of the property, that pets weren’t allowed. This was soon cleared up but we felt a little uncomfortable having our dog with us there.
