About this property
This 19th century miners cottage is situated in the small town of St Just, this is England's most westerly town. It has been beautifully restored to provide a cosy and welcoming base for enjoying all the facilities the town offers and exploring this magical part of the county. Step up from the front door into the small hall and then into the charming sitting room with its atmospheric beams, comfy sofa and electric fire. It also has a dining table where you can enjoy meals prepared in the well equipped kitchen. Head upstairs at the end of the day to two comfortable bedrooms, with glimpses of the sea from the single room. Outside you have a neat enclosed patio which can be accessed from the kitchen, making it an ideal space to eat alfresco. If you don't feel like cooking yourself, wander to the friendly pubs and cafes on the doorstep. The town is interesting, with a range of good galleries and little shops, and all around is spectacular scenery to walk and admire. Cape Cornwall, Cot Valley and Porth Nanven cove with its strange dinosaur eggs are stunning places to visit, or walk the South West Coast Path to observe prehistoric remains and dramatic mine ruins. For surfers, Sennen Cove is famous for its waves. Land's End, Pendeen Lighthouse, Geevor Mine, St Ives and the Minack Theatre should all be on your itinerary too, meaning Molly's Cottage will be a restful and welcome base at the end of action-packed days.
St Just is the nearest town to Lands End and is situated approximately eight miles west of Penzance. The town itself is an ancient settlement that has a strong mining history and there are several monuments and prehistoric antiquities to visit including the Bronze Age settlement at Cape Cornwall.

A bit old fashioned, but we kind of liked that. Had no trouble parking right outside the house which seemed to be an issue for other guests. Very clean, and comfortable bed. The only complaint is the cold water pressure upstairs was pretty non existent - the hand held shower on the bath is more a prop than a useable shower! Still, overall a nice little base to explore the beautiful coastline. We walked to Bottallack (about 2 hours) and had lunch in an excellent pub, The Queen's Arms. Would also highly recommend The Star in St Just- great atmosphere, and the Chinese was excellent!

We've stayed in approximately 8/9 different places in St Just over 20 year's and this is by far the worst. We're here for another week but thank goodness we are staying in a lovely place for the 3rd time for our 2nd week.

Generally happy with our stay , could do with some TLC in places , but nothing that compromises your comfort or holiday, great location for visiting all the surrounding areas, pizza place in the village is highly recommended
