    “A perfect property in a perfect location.”

    The Cubby Hole is possibly the best holiday accommodation we have stayed in because it offers beautiful views, has everything you need for a comfortable stay and is located between the harbour and the main beach in Sennen Cove, saving the tricky walk up the steep hill that we've had when staying in properties here before. It is more spacious than the photos suggest and the patio is a real sun trap in the daytime. The parking space outside is a real advantage and even has an electric charging ...

    The Cubby Hole is possibly the best holiday accommodation we have stayed in because it offers beautiful views, has everything you need for a comfortable stay and is located between the harbour and the main beach in Sennen Cove, saving the tricky walk up the steep hill that we've had when staying in properties here before. It is more spacious than the photos suggest and the patio is a real sun trap in the daytime. The parking space outside is a real advantage and even has an electric charging point. The most important opinion though was from our two Springers, who give it a paws up and 5 stars. The only negative was having to leave, until next time.

    Thank you Angela for a lovely review. Glad you and your Springer's enjoyed A lovely sunny week at the Cubbyhole. Hope to welcome you all again soon. Enjoy the rest of the summer. Property Owner

The property

Cubby Hove is a gorgeous ground-floor apartment set in the picturesque Sennen Cove in Cornwall.

This home will whisk you away to another planet of delight as the wind gently touches your face on the front terrace, inviting you to venture down to the beach.

Imagine taking in the sublime crashing waves from your open-plan living area as the coffee brews, before settling into the garden chairs to admire the breathtaking views.

After a day on the sun-kissed beach, with the kids and dogs running wild, be sure to settle in for a night in by the crackling woodburning stove, with the Smart TV providing entertainment.

When the day comes to an end, the two king-size beds beckon you in to rest and recharge before another serene sunrise arrives.

If you can tear yourself away from this stunning base, the Old Success Inn can charm you with a wonderful meal and a drink to wash it down with, while a shop for any essentials is also close by.

With Sennen Cove Beach right on your doorstep, you can indulge in all the seaside activities your heart desires, as the breathtaking turquoise waters splash around your feet.

A stroll to the famous Land’s End should be on the to do list, followed by a traditional fish and chips meal, topping off a splendid seaside day.

For a day out, Penzance has plenty to do, with Escape Rooms Cornwall to get the brain working overtime or the Penlee House Gallery & Museum for you take in some lovely displays.

That can all be topped off with a visit to the Morrab Gardens as well as a walk along the promenade.

Further afield, the picturesque town of St Ives is worth the trip to view the harbour, then you can call in to see the Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden.

Also, a short diversion will lead to an exciting family adventure at Paradise Park and Jungle Barn Cornwall.

Fall in love with the beauty of Cornwall by booking Cubby Hove.

About the location

SENNEN COVE

St Just 5 miles; Penzance 9 miles.

The most westerly village in mainland Britain, Sennen has a lovely mile-long beach of pure white sand and is a very popular holiday destination. With excellent surfing conditions, the village has its own surf school – overlooked by a super-cool beach bar/restaurant with floor-to-ceiling windows which make the most of the wonderful views. Once a hub of smuggling activity, Sennen still retains many secret passages – one of which is said to lead to the covered well in the Old Success Inn. Largely unchanged over time, this lovely village has a timeless appeal and is home to a gallery, a medieval church, an Iron Age fort and a small selection of shops where you can buy beachware, gifts and souvenirs, and a range of groceries. There is also a weekly Farmers’ Market in the village Community Centre each Tuesday morning. During the summer, the beach bar becomes a hub of activity and entertainment, with live music, weekly barbecues and popular surfing competitions.

Please note: During July and August, the property only allows weekly bookings with changeovers on Fridays.
