Ein Schatz in guter Lage

Dieses kleine Haus ist ein Schatz. Mit Geschmack und kunstvoll eingerichtet und mit allem Nötigen ausgestattet, mit einem sehr schönen kleinen Garten und idyllisch gelegen. Durch die zentrale Lage sind viele der wunderschönen Strände schnell erreicht. Von St. Just aus gibt es zudem (jedenfalls in der Hauptsaison) preiswerte Hop on hop off-Bustouren, mit denen man die traumhafte Landschaft ebenfalls erkunden kann. Die Vermieterin Ali ist super nett, jederzeit erreichbar und sehr hilfsbereit. Kleine Minuspunkte: Das Bad ist für eine 4-köpfige Familie relativ klein, aus der Dusche kommt relativ wenig Wasser und die WLAN-Qualität schwankt bzw. es funktioniert nicht zuverlässig. Darauf kann im Urlaub aber ggf. auch verzichtet werden. Wir hatten einen tollen Aufenthalt und kommen sehr gerne wieder!

Characterful cottage in great location

We had a great but too short stay in St Just. Clean, comfortable and well equipped cottage easily large enough for four adults. St Just centre with supermarket, cafes, pubs 2 minutes away by car (but why drive when you can walk there in 10 minutes across the fields?). Great walks from the cottage to Cape Cornwall and all the West Cornwall sights are within an easy drive. Thanks Ali: would love to return!

Beautiful house in a fab location

We had such a lovely week staying in St Just. The house felt like home straight away - it was very comfortable and had everything we needed. We loved the location - you can walk from the front door in so many directions! It’s a quick trip across fields to St Just, or you can follow small roads and footpaths to Geevor tin mine, Cape Cornwall and Sennen Cove. We loved this and even though Cornwall was busy when we visited (August), it was easy to get off the beaten track and there are lots of beautiful places to discover! We would definitely recommend and we’d love to come back sometime.

Darling of a house

Great location, lots of galleries to visit, coastal walks and quite lanes for bike rides. Sennen cove just a short drive away with stunning seas and beaches. The house was very lovely, gardens well stocked with flowers, comfy bed and we would be happy to recommend to anyone. Thank you Ali for sharing your beautiful home. 😊

Wonderful cosy cottage

We had a wonderful week in Ali’s lovely cosy cottage which was a great base for exploring this area of Cornwall. The beds were all very comfortable and the beautiful garden was ideal for sitting out in when the sun chose to pop out! Ali was a great host and was on hand if we had any issues, which we didn’t. Would love to come back again.

Lovely cottage in quiet location

Lovely Cornish cottage in a wonderful location , St Just is friendly , great pubs all around . Ali was helpful and communicative , I needed a hair dryer and one was produced quickly . The lovely garden is south facing and is a sun trap . We loved the area , the beautiful Sennen Cove , walking around the old tin mines , Newlyn for amazing fresh crab at The Mackerel Skye and incredible boat trip from Penzance to see Dolphins and seals . All in all a brilliant holiday in a lovely cottage which was so peaceful .

Lovey Cottage in beautiful location.

The cottage is lovely bright and clean and tastefully decorated with all you need for a stay away. It is bigger than it appears from the photos. We arrived later than planned and Ali came to see us in the morning after arriving. She told us about the local amenities were and some lovely ideas for walks and days out. We had an issue with the toaster but that was fixed within the hour - great service. Parking is road side - it is a single track road but even with a large car it wasn't an issue. The road itself is not busy. Would definitely recommend.

Holiday in St Just

Just had a lovely stay in this quaint, country cottage which easily accommodates six upstairs, but would be a squeeze for six in the lounge. Exceptionally clean throughout with a lovely, enclosed, sun trap garden. Parking is very tight. We have a Ford Galaxy and were lucky as the owners went away during our stay and could park slightly off road, outside their garage, otherwise I had concerns about leaving a large car on such a narrow, steep, country lane. When we arrived we were meet by the owner Ali who was very welcoming and showed us around the house. She explained to us that it was actually her home which she rents out during the summer months, whilst her and her partner live next door in a converted shed. The property was perfect for the two of us with our two dogs in every way, except for two minor points. Firstly, if it’s chilly there is no central heating, so we had to use the wood burner and electric radiators provided and secondly, the water pressure on the shower is very low which made it a struggle to use but this was explained to us on arrival. St Just and the surrounding area is stunning, especially the coastline and we would recommend a walk from Land’s End to Sennen cove, or a peaceful visit to Mullion cove, On the whole we had a lovely, relaxing week away.

A lovely family cottage

This is a lovely cottage and ideal for a family visiting Cornwall. The kitchen is very well stocked for a family of four or more and the garden is a lovely sun trap. St just is a five minute walk across fields where you will find all you need, pubs, butcher, groceries and a baker. We would definitely recommend it for a holiday. Ali is also a very kind and helpful host. Thank you.
