Had the pleasure of spending a week here between the 8th and 15th of May. The cottage, gardens and pool/hot tub facilities are amazing. The location is perfect for both walking and relaxing. Lands End and Nanjizal Bay are beautiful locations just a walk away, and being able to see Sennen Beach from above every morning is nothing short of amazing, the pub, surf lodge, shop and chippy were all great and there's also a fantastic farm shop a short drive away. The weather was great and locals very friendly. We would return in a heartbeat!

No Place is a cosy cottage you in a superb location. Our stay was over New Year so it was a bit nippy outside. It was good to have the wood burner, and although some wood supplied, I was glad to have brought more with us. There is central heating but the timings were a bit odd or somebody had messed with the clock. The Aga is quite easy to use. The Old Success Inn was very accommodating and friendly, recommended. Enjoyed some drinks and exceptional pizzas in the Surf Lodge as well.
