Sennen Heights

I liked this apartment very much. Everything I could possibly want or need was provided. The view, particularly from the bay window, was wonderful. The steep steps up were a bit disconcerting but I got used to them and the apartment was definitely worth the steep climb. Unfortunately there was no internet access (an EE issue I gather). Also the kettle didn’t work. I just used a saucepan.

I cannot stress enough, if you have any kind of mobility issue do not even continue reading. The steps to get into this place are quite brutal. I am not unhealthy but getting the luggage in was a little traumatic but if you feel up to that challenge then please read on as it is almost perfect. First impression of the entrance are a little disappointing but walk in to apartment and it feels modern again with more than enough room for 2. There was a little welcome package which was a nice touch with scones, jam etc but then you see the view from the bay window and everything is forgotten. All 5 windows open and all you can hear is the waves way down below with a stunning view. I would highly recommend the coastal path walk over to lands end taking the steps up to access it. It only takes about half an hour and the scenery is breathtaking in places. In the day we went to St Ives, Penzance, Newquay and padstow. All within a 40 min drive. It was cloudy every evening so didn’t get to see a sunset properly or the stars at night but I would love to return to see it. I should mention parking. You can offload luggage from above but is not really easier and no real parking. From below in 4 nights I did manage to park in the residents only parking for 1 night. The other 3 cost £9 but seem very safe. The no over night parking refers to camper vans only. If you do go out in the day check you have everything from the car before you go up for the night. You only want to climb them steps once

Really good if you like lots of cliff walking, beautiful views. Cute apartment with everything you need for a short break. If you’re lucky you can see beautiful sunsets from the window.
