Finest Retreats - Wolf Rock

Discover Wolf Rock, a traditional Cornish cottage perched on the cliffs, just 250 feet above a stunning beach with a mile of soft, white-gold sand. The open-plan living area offers breathtaking sea views from every window, showcasing Sennen Cove village, the Land’s End cliffs, and the vast ocean stretching west to the Isles of Scilly, 30 miles offshore. In every season, the scene below is spectacular!

French doors from the living area open onto an enclosed private garden - perfect for the safety of small children and the convenience of pet owners. The property is an ideal retreat for families and groups looking to enjoy the activities and scenery of Sennen and Whitesands Bay.

Spend your evenings unwinding in comfort, making the most of the free Wi-Fi and television, or cooking in the fully equipped modern kitchen, complete with a washer/dryer, fridge/freezer, and full oven, for a true home-away-from-home experience.

The cottage comfortably accommodates up to six guests across three inviting bedrooms: a double, a twin, and a cabin-style bunk room ideal for younger visitors but big enough for adults also. You’ll also find a family bathroom with a shower over the bath, plus an additional WC.

Just a short stroll away, the beautiful sandy beaches of Sennen Cove await. Whether you're visiting as a couple, with family, or with friends, you can enjoy the fresh sea air and the feel of soft sand beneath your feet. Whitesands Bay is one of the finest beaches in West Cornwall and a top destination for surfers. It is accessible by a private beach path and offers excellent facilities, including toilets, takeaway food, a surf shop, surfboard hire, a surf school, and a fantastic beachside restaurant.

Whitesands and neighbouring Gwynver Bay hold Blue Flag status, with lifeguards on duty throughout the summer. Please note that dogs are not permitted on Whitesands Beach from Easter Day until October 1st, but they are welcome on Gwynver Beach year-round.

For those seeking adventure, surfing, paddleboarding, and coastal walks are all within easy reach. There is a Beach Shack at the property with buckets and spades, bodyboards and other beach equipment free for visitors to borrow. Sennen Cove is a charming fishing village with a pub, cafés, an art gallery, and a lifeboat station. From the cottage, it can be reached by car or via a steep, sandy path.

The surrounding area is rich in breathtaking landscapes and fascinating history. Just a short drive or scenic coastal walk away, Land’s End offers dramatic ocean views, family-friendly attractions, and the iconic signpost marking the westernmost point of England. Nearby, the Minack Theatre, a spectacular open-air venue carved into the cliffs, hosts performances with the Atlantic Ocean as a stunning backdrop.

For further exploration, Penzance is just 8 miles away, and St Ives, renowned for its vibrant art scene and golden beaches, is 15 miles away along the scenic north coast road.

Wolf Rock is one of four cottages converted from a Victorian house. Positioned at one end of the row, Wolf Rock is separated from the others by a private gate and its own enclosed garden. For larger groups, the other three cottages can be booked alongside Wolf Rock. All cottages are set within 16 acres of shared grounds, including 2 ½ acres of terraced gardens with communal barbecue facilities and picnic tables.

Please note: Electric car charging is not permitted at this property.
