NUMBER 21, ST JUST
Tucked away in the quirky and historical town of St just is the delightful Number 21. A lovingly restored cottage perfect for a family staycation or couple’s retreat. With plenty of character and local artwork, the interiors of this charming home reflect the calming surrounds of the countryside and sea beyond.

The house has been painstakingly and thoughtfully refurbished to incorporate modern comfort with environmentally friendly materials. Much of the house still retains core elements from the 1800s and local builders worked closely to maintain the original exterior granite walls as well as the beams and fireplace that can now be seen in the front room.

This comfortable cottage is perfectly situated down a quiet lane, so you can enjoy the best of both worlds: the peacefulness of a country cottage whilst only being a few minutes’ walk from St Just and all it has to offer.


LOCATION
The whole town of St Just is a UNESCO world heritage site and surrounded by wild moors and dramatic coastline. If feeling energetic try exploring the stunning Tinner’s Way running along the coast from Cape Cornwall all the way to St Ives. It’s an ancient route from the Bronze age and where the tin and copper ore were transported along the way from St Just to Hayle.

St Just is a friendly town that feels lost in time with an array of great local shops, a deli, a butcher, four pubs and a small local supermarket for your everyday needs. Surrounding the town are the most spectacular stretches of coastline and fantastic walks from the doorstep. Sennen with its glorious surfing beach is ten minutes away as is Potheras, a hidden and stunning local’s cove. Travelling further east within twenty minutes you can be in Marazion with its fabulous beach overlooking the famous St Michaels Mount, St Ives, Mousehole and Penzance.


LIVING
Enjoy the luxury of space, from this living room and separate snug. With plenty of natural light, views and local artwork, it’s the perfect space for sitting back on one of the cosy, cushiony sofas and cuddling up in front of the wood burner and unwinding.

There are two separate living spaces both tastefully decorated with a refreshing colour palette of neutral greens, blues and creams. There’s a Smart TV (no terrestrial aerial so live TV can be watched using the relevant channel apps) in one room for relaxing in front of a film, whilst the other has a cosy wood burner and makes for a great space to get everyone together for a board game.


COOKING & EATING
The kitchen is a true culmination of Cornish design and modern-day style and ease. It still retains a traditional cottage feel with its slate flooring that is balanced out by all of the modern amenities. The kitchen has been well-equipped with everything needed to cook up a storm. There’s a fridge/freezer, electric hob and extractor as well as a nutri-bullet and blender. Gather the family or group together around the dining table or on warmer evenings take it al fresco and make the most of the Cornish sunshine.


SLEEPING
Every room at Number 21 has been thoughtfully designed with relaxation and comfort in mind. Both double rooms have amazing views of the countryside from their sumptuous beds and with plenty of space for clothes.
