Penzance and the Penwith Peninsula

Ride the waves at surfing hotspot Sennen Cove on the north coast, where the beaches are vast expanses of golden sand. The south coast has a long list of charming Cornish Coves, hidden secrets with smuggler’s tales and panoramas you’d find in the National Geographic. Navigate the South West Coast Path from our door and hop on a boat to the Scilly Isles down in the harbour.

The most up and coming cultural destination in Cornwall and top for water sports.

It’s true to say, you won’t be stuck for something to entertain, educate, excite, or relax you when you explore the Penwith Peninsula.
