  • "Another lovely relaxing stay."

    The cottage is a perfect base for walking the coastal path and very comfortable to return to.

  • "A wonderful cottage, very comfortable and great for walking the coast path."

    The location was quiet, bus stop outside and a great pub 5 minutes walk away. We hope to return.

  • "Clean and mostly as described."

    . 1 set of sheets and 1 set of towels are not enough for 5 nights and definitely not enough when you are not allowed to use the towel rack to dry them because the heating is off and you are being lied to that the heating is on a timer for 4 hours a day! I should be able to use the heating and everything else whenever I please and not ask for permission or having to wait for a set time to dry towels! Tv in the bedroom would have been nice and the charge to use the washer and dryer seemed a bit much! The fact that it is located so close to a main road is bothersome as it can get quite noisy! Check in so late and check out so early also not good. Would recommend something bigger if travelling with pets!

    We did not lie to you regarding the heated towel rail, the central heating was not required for your stay we had such lovely sunny weather over the 5 days you were with us. We have a timed heated towel rail in the summer that is set to come on in the morning and in the evening to dry your towels, as you were told when you called, if this was not working you should have rung again to say so and we would have been very happy to take a look at why and rectified this if required. If you would have liked to have more towels for your stay then again you only needed to call and ask. We are sorry that you didn't enjoy your stay in Ramblers and our location, we hope you find other locations and holiday cottages that suit your requirements better. Property Owner

  • "Very clean, comfortable and well equipped."

    Perfect for exploring the area. Easy walk to coastal path and local (very good food) pub.

  • "Ramblers is a great compact cottage that's ideal for a couple (plus dog) It's bright, well equipped and comfortable."

    It's location is brilliant with no more than a 15 min stroll to reach the coastal footpath and see the numerous pump houses of the old tin mines. Buses run right past the cottage and the open top lands end coaster is a fantastic way to see the area from St Ives to Penzance. St Just is an easy walk away, as is the great pub at Botallack. We parked the car when we arrived and the next time we used it was to drive home a week later--so much to do.

  • "A wonderful stay at Ramblers rest."

    Superb location with buses to Penzance / St. Ives etc leaving just yards away from the property. There are so many beautiful walks to be enjoyed and explored with the South West coastal path 5 minutes away. The property itself was homely, well-equipped and the owners (Nicola and Simon) made our stay that little bit more special. I could not recommend our stay more highly, and will most certainly be back, either to renew our experiences at Ramblers rest, or by bringing our camper van to stay on the beautiful and well-appointed campsite next door, which is also owned by the property owners.

  • "We enjoyed a lovely week in this very comfortable cottage."

    It may be small but it had everything we needed. There was also a bus stop right outside the cottage and a decent pub 5 minutes walk away. Our only problem was finding places to charge our electric car. There was nothing locally and many of the chargers in places like Penzance or St Ives did not have tethered cables. So be warned, if you have an electric car, bring your own cables! Thanks to the property owners we did find a charger just outside Penzance.

    Well equipped, very comfortable and extremely well maintained. Secure garden and vehicle parking, making it ideal for the dog to enjoy her stay. The finishing touches in the property put in for the Christmas celebrations were the icing on the cake. We will have no hesitation to book again, highly recommended 5 stars.

  • "The cottage was very good."

    Only one improvement really and that is maybe it could have a clothes washing machine but this is a small comment. A rather funnier comment is when you put the bathroom light on the fan comes on and stays on for about 30mins after it’s switched off. This is ok during day but causes some discussion at 2 in the morning

    Thank you for taking the time to let us know you liked the cottage. While staying in the cottage you do have access to the laundry room with a washing machine and dryer that you are able to use, we are sorry you missed this information that is supplied in the folder. Property Owner

About the location

ST JUST

Penzance 7.2 miles; St Ives 12.9 miles.

St Just is the nearest town to Land’s 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. St Just is ideally located for visitors to explore the far west of Cornwall as it is situated on the edge of the moors and close to the beautiful north coast. In the centre of the town is Plain-an-Gwarry, a theatre used for miracle plays in medieval times, and in more recent times for the Lafrowda Festival.
