The Bunker is a beautifully converted World War II operations bunker, which now provides unique, comfortable holiday accommodation. It is set in glorious countryside and just a short distance from the famous open air Minack Theatre, Porthcurno Beach, the wide white sandy beach of Sennen and the Legendary Lands End. It’s a great spot for exploring the delights of West Cornwall, including the picturesque valley at Lamorna Cove, the quaint harbour and village of Mousehole, plus the fishing harbour at Newlyn.
The bustling town of Penzance and the historic town of Marazion, home of St Michaels Mount which rises from the sea like a fairytale castle, can be reached on foot by causeway at low tide and small ferry at high tide. The area is a popular walking destination with extensive scenic coastal pathways. The marshes at Marazion and Hayle Estuary attract wildlife and bird watchers from around the world. Locally, you can find cycle trails, sub-tropical gardens, tea rooms and art galleries, including the Tate and Barbara Hepworth Museum at St Ives.
Take the scenic coastal train from St Erth to St Ives or take a day trip to the beautiful Isles of Scilly from nearby Lands End airport or the Scillonian Ferry from Penzance. Return to The Bunker and relax on the patio with an aperitif before heading off to take in an evening performance at the Minack Theatre. This peaceful, comfortable and a truly unusual accommodation will delight young and old. Beach 2 miles. Shop, pub and restaurant 2 miles.

We had a wonderful holiday at the bunker, the owner was on hand if we needed anything. Everything we needed was provided from had soap, washing liquid, kitchen roll, dishwasher tablets and for the dogs there was trays, bowls and even towels. The owner left us a welcome hamper with fresh bread butter milk and wine etc the dogs again were not forgotten as they had their own bag of treats provided. The bunker is decorated to a high standard, the garden is so well maintained with ample places to sit and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. To sum up our holiday in the bunker in one word PERFECT.

Had a fantastic week at the bunker with our son, his girlfriend and their children. The bunker was equipped with everything you would need. It was so peaceful and quiet, with a lovely big garden for the children and dog to run around in.There is a table tennis table in the garage, along with other bits and pieces to keep the children entertained.We stood on top of the bunker and were able to see the Lands End fireworks display.You can walk to Sennen Cove and Lands End along the country lane, or hop in the car to go further afield.
