Find My Favourite Holiday Cottages in St Just

A stone’s throw from Land’s End, St Just holiday cottages offer a distinctively Cornish experience. This traditional community lies far west of Cornwall, on the rugged Penwith Heritage Coast. Wander into the town centre from your holiday cottage in St Just, and you’ll discover a peaceful community that time seems to have forgotten. Next door to the graceful 14th-century church, the King’s Arm is an atmospheric pub which serves a range of delicious dishes prepared with fresh fish from Newlyn and meat from the local community farm. The beautiful light found at the end of the Cornish peninsula has inspired many artists, and the town’s galleries, which include the Great Atlantic Mapworks, Navigator Contemporary Arts and Nancherrow Studio, feature beautiful landscapes by local painters.

Follow the Southwest Coast Path in either direction from St Just, and you’ll be rewarded with breathtaking views across the Atlantic. As you ramble over windswept clifftops dotted with disused engine houses, look out for seals, dolphins and basking sharks. On the third Saturday of July, St Just comes alive with arts and music for the famous Lafrowda Festival. In the heart of the town, Plen an Gwarry is an ancient open-air venue that still hosts various events.

St Just self-catering holidays would be incomplete without a visit to hump-backed Cape Cornwall, which looms 229 feet above sea level, with breathtaking views of the Western Approaches. The cape is home to a 138-year-old chimney stack, while offshore, a treacherous offshore reef known as the Brisons has caused many shipwrecks over the centuries. The coastline around St Just is enchanting, with ancient standing stones, old tin mines and lighthouses, such as Pendine. Further west, remote Sennen Cove is a popular surf spot close to Land’s End, England’s most westerly point. A short drive east of your holiday cottage in St Just, St Ives is a thriving town with art galleries, renowned restaurants and fishing boats bobbing in the harbour.
