About this property
Perched on the top of a hill and boasting breathtaking views, this comfortable cottage's three chimneys have been a landmark for ships sailing past Land's End for years.
This secluded hilltop haven is surrounded by boundless moorland, and if you visit us towards the end of the summer, you might even get the chance to see this incredible landscape covered by carpets of pink heather.
Inside, you'll find four bedrooms, two cosy living areas, a large kitchen/diner, as well as an enclosed private garden. This charming house offers spacious accommodation for up to eight guests, and with views over the sea and the moors, it's easy to while away the hours simply watching ships sail by.
Porthgwarra is a small, coastal village resting upon the Penwith Heritage Coast in Southwest Cornwall, near the iconic Land’s End point. Set upon the coastal path, with historical landmarks of Gwennap Head Daymark on route, and with a delightful haven of Porthgwarra Beach within reach, both visitors and locals can enjoy the beauty of the village, before grabbing a bite to eat at Porthgwarra Cove Café. For a hub of amenities, nearby Sennen is home to a convenience store, and the First & Last Inn pub, both reachable via car, along with the Surf Beach Bar, located upon the golden shoreline. Travelling east from the village will bring you to Porthcurno, with beautiful, turquoise waters to take advantage of, where you’ll also locate The Minack Theatre, PK Porthcurno Museum, and the 3 Cove Lookout hiking area, whilst Penzance Promenade is a must for a full day out, brimming with galleries, shops, eateries, and a hub for watersports. With so much to see and do in the area, start with Porthgwarra as your base.

We used to love the little pig tiles and the shower tap in the bathroom at chimneys and feel that it has lost some of it's character. Unfortunately when we arrived, the bedroom windows were full of dead and dying flies which we hoovered up over a couple of days. The fire doors are extremely heavy ( they seem to like tripping you up) and there is always a duvet and other bedding in the cupboard where we like to hang clothes and place suitcases. The drawers on the chest of drawers stick and are difficult to use. Maybe take a recce..oh and try using the tin opener. Sorry to moan but we were in chimneys when it was first let, many years ago, been every year since and remember how original and thoughtfully equipped it was. I hear that faraway ( where we've also stayed many times) has had the same 'makeover'
