  • "A very lovely cottage."

    Clean and comfortable with all the little practical touches that make the holiday so much nicer. Alex was very friendly, answering any questions we had and on hand if we needed her. Location of the cottage was ideal with a short walk to the cove and handy for all the amenities in St Just. Had such a relaxing time. Thank you ☺️

  • "A gem of a cottage in an idyllic location with spectacular sunsets just a stroll away!"

    Alex is a wonderful host. The cottage was spotless, had everything we needed, and there were very lovely welcoming touches. Alex came to say hello on our first morning and then left us to it but was easily contactable if need be. We had a brilliant week of walking and sightseeing from this base. Top tip - get the Land Coaster open top bus from St Just to visit St Ives - stunning journey!

  • "What a beautiful place!"

    Extremely well-provisioned and spotlessly clean. A really lovely welcoming gift. So thoughtfully laid-out and furnished. High-quality appliances, light and airy, comfortable, easy car parking, etc. Too many positives to mention. Alex, our host, was fantastic: both proactive and helpful. An amazing place to stay for a restful holiday.

  • "Hi Alex and Alec The cottage was really super; it did not disappoint and it was very kind of you to provide a change of bedding and the lovely welcome basket, thank you."

    Just a couple of small things: the shaver point in the bathroom did not seem to be working and also the hot water felt too hot and really needs to be reduced slightly. The only thing that we felt the property lacked was a clothes airer so we could have hung out wet items. PUBLIC REVIEW: This is a lovely cottage for a couple to stay in. It’s well designed, comfortable, clean and well appointed. The outdoor area is perfect for alfresco eating and is a relaxing spot to sit and enjoy the sounds of nature. The cottage is well situated for spectacular coastal hikes and also for walking into the little town of St Just where there is an hourly bus service to other places around the beautiful west coast lizard peninsula.

  • "We had a brilliant stay at Cot Valley Cottage."

    It is a charming little cottage, with all the facilities included for a comfortable stay. Peaceful and relatively secluded, which is what we enjoy. The friendly owner is on hand, if you have any queries, but leaves you alone to enjoy your holiday. Lovely basket of local goodies left out for us on arrival, including fresh flowers. And the wine in the fridge was also very welcome. Only issue, and not the owner’s problem, but the lane to the cottage is very narrow and the hedges either side could do with trimming back.

  • "Secluded Cot Valley Cottage is so relaxing with everything you needed."

    A generous hamper on arrival to help you on your way. The dining table was already laid for a meal with napkins, haven't had that before. A cosy private little garden to be able to while away the time with a book and cuppa listening to the babbling stream and rustle of Gunnera leaves.. Everything was beautifully clean, the bed was gorgeously comfy, the bathrobes just what the doctor ordered after a long day and good hot shower. The kitchen had everything one needed. Bed linen and towels were changed after the first week. Two sets of sliding doors opened the lounge and bedroom onto the patio area. As for parking, we have a VW Tiguan parking tight to the property wall posed no problem. Wasn't worried about anyone using the space and nobody did. A wonderful base for a 2 week Cornish holiday whatever you wanted to do. Ours included SW Coast Path walking (only half a mile down to Porth Nanven) bus trips on the No 17 and Coaster from St Just to St Ives and Penzance, The Minack Theatre, Sennen beach, Tregwainton Gardens and St Just annual Lafrowda Festival 2024. After all the rushing about you can come back to Cot Valley Cottage and relax to the sound of peace and quiet. Just short of a mile up the road to St Just, easily walked after a little steep section, a great place for a few shops, cafes, a good stocked Co-Op, Gallery, art and craft shops. Evening meals. We ate at The Commercial four times. Each time we encountered friendly staff and ate tasty hot gorgeous food. We never used the car up to St Just, just walked there and back even after evening meals, easy peasy. Alex introduced herself on arrival and was so friendly throughout our stay meeting her a couple of times. She was close by and a text away if we needed her. She leant us two small seats to use at The Minack and quickly fixed an issue with the hot water. What more can you ask for. Overall, Cot Valley Cottage is a beautiful property and wonderful, peaceful quiet location from which to sit and relax and enjoy the peace and quiet and make plans to explore the great county of Cornwall. Thank you Alex and Alec for your kindness and hospitality.

    We totally relaxed here as it had all we needed. The South facing patio is a lovely place to enjoy breakfast, before you head out to the cove or the many walks from the cottage. St Just has all you need for supplies and The Square cafe serves a fab breakfast. The Lands End Coaster bus is so cheap and a great way to get about and see everything without the stress of driving narrow roads. We are returning next year and can't wait. With the SWCP in the doorstep it's perfect.

    Great location, 10 minutes walk to the cove and plenty of walks from the door. Friendly and helpful hosts. Very narrow lane to access the property so not good for nervous driver or large vehicles. Overall a lovely cottage with a very comfy bed and an exceptional welcome package parking is quite tight and we were a bit concerned that our space could be taken while we were out by others visiting the cove, a private parking sign and a clearly marked parking area would help.

  • "Cot Valley Cottage is a perfect place for exploring the beautiful coast on foot around Land's End."

    No need for the car; a footpath just outside the cottage leads to the Coastal Path. Alternatively a short walk to St Just gives access to an excellent hop on hop off bus service that runs around the peninsular from St Ives to Penzance. The cottage itself is in a delightful quiet location with two sets of patio doors leading directly onto a private sunny patio set besides a babbling brook. There is a car parking space next to the cottage. Inside, the cottage is modern, comfortable, warm and cosy. It is very well equipped and has been very tastefully decorated and furnished. The modern kitchen has everything that you would expect to find, likewise the modern bathroom. The owners provided a very generous and thoughtful welcome pack to start your stay; they live close by if you need them but they respect your privacy. To summarise, Cot Valley Cottage is as good as they come and we have visited many excellent Sykes cottages in great locations. John and Linda April 2023

    We didn’t use the car all week, walking from the cottage along the coastal path in both directions and up into St Just is delightful. We enjoyed a few lazy afternoons on the beach at Porth Nanven. We also took the circular coaster bus service from St Just, which has amazing views from the open top deck. This was the first time that we have returned to a cottage for a second visit, but this cottage and its location are so perfect we will be booking again.

    We were welcomed with perhaps the most impressive basket of goodies I think I have ever seen in a rental. The spec at Cot Valley Cottage is top end and the cottage is very comfortable. The space has been optimised all the way down the line. The gunera provided wonderful shade and the breeze off the stream made for a delightfully cool week amidst the heat of August. The cottage is at the bottom of the owners' graden, but you'd hardly know. And in any case, the owners are so helpful that why wouldn't you want to bump into them? This is five stars plus. The location itself is terrific. Ten minutes to the beach, 15 to the shops... Park the car and don't drive anywhere for a week.

The property

With dreamy surroundings and a beautiful interior, this romantic retreat for two is the perfect place to escape and unwind.

Cot Valley is a well kept secret; a lush sub tropical valley with just a handful of houses, it runs down to the sea at Porth Nanven Cove.

Step inside and discover an open plan living space and a serene bedroom with picture windows looking out to the stunning National Trust owned Architectural Heritage Site opposite.

The decor is contemporary calm, with a pocket sprung memory foam bed, crisp linen, fluffy towels and bathrobes ensuring a restful stay.

Outside is a small patio with garden furniture for relaxing and dining.

The sea is just 10 minutes' walk away so you can enjoy a morning swim followed by breakfast on the sunny terrace beside the stream.

Sitting pretty in deepest West Cornwall, the immediate surrounds are tranquil and green.

It is easy to understand why it is designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and it is also a Site of Special Scentific Interest.

Less than a mile up the lane is the ancient town of St Just, the most westerly in Britain.

This friendly little place has several good pubs, cafes and delicatessens as well as several art galleries, including Kurt Jackson's Jackson Foundation.

Fine dining pubs and restaurants are popping up all over West Cornwall so head to The Beach Restaurant at Sennen Cove or The Old Coastguard Hotel in Mousehole for a culinary treat.

Wave chasers can surf at nearby sandy beaches Sennen Cove or Gwynver or head on around this dramatic stretch of coastline past Land's End to Porthcurno.

St Ives and Penzance are also within easy driving distance.

Each very different, these coastal towns are both worthy of a day trip.

For simpler pleasures, don your walking boots and head out on foot to explore this incredible corner of the county.

Cot Valley Cottage is perfect for walkers, beachcombers, golfers, artists, romantics and breaks at any time of year.

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.
