West Cornwall

At the far end of Cornwall lies a magical peninsula where you will find the tiny village of Mousehole with it's narrow winding streets and picturesque cottages and the awe-inspiring St Michael's Mount at Marazion. Enjoy the clear light and landscape of St Ives and appreciate modern art exhibited at the Tate and in the local galleries or escape via the rugged remains of Cornwall's mining heritage driving the breathtaking roller-coaster road leading to St Just and Land's End.
The village of Lamorna is hidden in a wooded valley and from here the coastal path affords beautiful views of the timeless rugged coastline once frequented by smugglers. If stretching out on a sandy beach feels like the right solution to the stress of everyday life, Gwithian Towans has three miles of golden sand sweeping around the bay at Hayle or head over to nearby Praa Sands with it's wide, sandy,south-facing beach.
