Sitting at the tip of Cornwall as one of our most westerly spots, Sennen and Penzance are ideal places for those wanting to enjoy fresh air and family fun. Famous for being one of the best surf spots in Cornwall, Sennen is a real treat for those who embrace cool water on their faces and wind in their hair. Award-winning seafood, renowned open air theatre The Minack, iconic art galleries and the historical brilliance of Cornwall’s tin mining past all add to the beauty of this region. Sennen’s luxury cottages, unrivalled lifestyle and boutique self-catering ethos really make a 5 star holiday in a luxury cottage in Cornwall so precious.

When in Cornwall, fresh fish is most definitely on the menu. The Beach restaurant offers the best of Cornish waters – River Exe mussels and Newlyn-landed hake feature on their menu alongside Tribute ale battered pollock and lobster risotto. Enjoy seasonal, line-caught delicacies from ‘Rosebud’, their resident fishing boat – there’s even the opportunity for a lobster from The Beach’s set of pots for the family to enjoy.

If seafood doesn’t satisfy you, head inland to the Apple Tree cafe for flavours of the world in a quiet corner of the UK. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free dishes are available, as well as something for carnivores!

190 Degrees West offer the classic, quintessential seaside experience – take away fish and chips. Take a seat as the sun goes down with catch of the day, salt and pepper squid or one of their locally sourced beef burgers – try a variety for a bespoke version of surf n’ turf!

To take a break from the waves or a pit stop halfway through an adventure, head to Little Bo cafe for something to refresh and recharge. One of the most popular and dog friendly places in Sennen there’s no better way to take some time and enjoy the sights, sounds and spectacles of the West Country during your boutique retreat in one of our luxury cottages in Sennen.

Sennen has the honour of not just being one of the best surfing beaches in the UK, but it also has a beer named after it! ‘Sennen’ by local brewery Skinner’s is described as a ‘pale zingy beer’, just the thing to match a balmy summer evening on the sand with loved ones.

There are several breweries and cider farms around Cornwall, so mark the occasion with a glass of something remarkable and a toast to beautiful surroundings.

The far west of Cornwall is also home to Penzance’s world-famous Minack Theatre. The cliff top amphitheatre is an authentic way to experience drama in entirely unique surroundings.

Cornwall’s rich artistic and industrial history is well worth a visit for anyone looking to dig a little deeper into the County’s culture. Descend into the basement of the grade-II listed Roundhouse and Capstan gallery to admire Cornish pieces of art, or head up to the loft for local crafts under the low-beamed ceiling.

Tin mining is a huge part of Cornwall’s history, and something the county is extremely proud of. Each year thousands of visitors explore Penzance’s Geevor Tin Mine, and rightly so – they have received numerous awards including the Cornwall Tourism ‘Winner of Winners’ accolade. For a luxury self catering cottage in Sennen you’re in the right place!
