Bojewyan Holiday Cottage, Cornwall

Our holiday cottage in cornwall looks westward and often benefits from glorious sunsets over the sea. From the garden, walk up the lane onto the moorland of Woon Gumpus Common where National Trust paths will lead you to Chûn Quoit and the ruins of Chûn Castle, from which, on a clear day, you can see across to both coasts. In the nearby village of Pendeen is a former tin mine. Geevor now offers a fine museum and underground tours. There is an historic working beam engine nearby at Levant. Pendeen has an excellent corner shop, three pubs (all within walking distance of Bojewyan), a meadery and a friendly, family-run restaurant.
Just across the fields and down the cliffs is beautiful Portheras Cove, a favourite beach for many people because it is peaceful and secluded. Portheras can be reached either by walking down from the cottage or driving part-way. There are also pretty 'sandy coves' near Pendeen Lighthouse.
The town of St. Just is ten minutes' drive away, with shopping, pubs and restaurant facilities, and also a golf course and health club. Sennen Cove, the famous surfing beach, is twenty-five minutes' drive and Land's End thirty minutes, as is St. Ives. Driving into Penzance, the major town in West Cornwall, takes twenty minutes.
