“A little piece of heaven . . .” That’s how the local postman has described Vellandreath, a lovely and hidden corner of West Penwith in Far West Cornwall overlooking the wide sweep of Whitesands Bay, Sennen.
Well-appointed in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty – a haven for botanists, wildlife enthusiasts, beachcombers, climbers, ramblers and watermen – this delightful holiday cottage in Cornwall by the sea is set in the privately owned, unspoilt 8-acre Vellandreath Valley in Sennen, by the beach, bordered by a stream and sand dunes offering spectacular panoramic sea views all year round.
Converted with flair and imagination this quiet and magical setting is only accessible on foot down the sandy beach path from Sunny Corner Lane, Sennen, Cornwall.
Girl Annie is a romantic, cosy Cornish cottage and is perfect for families boasting spectacular sea views. This reverse level, former net loft bursts with character, and its setting in the dunes just 200 meters from the beach makes for glorious sea views & spectacular sunsets from its living room, dining room and pretty cottage garden.
What our guests say...
A stunning spot at the quieter end of Sennen Sands. We loved our stay. Easy (5min) access to the beach in bare feet. We could even see our son from the cottage and communicate via walkie-talkie! The beach was life-guarded and the team were really on it...
Mrs Z C Hawes
This is a gem of a place, nestled in the dunes just above the beach at Sennen. Fantastic location for walking the coast path- we used the open top coastal bus so we were only walking one way and loved the ride...
Sally

We had a very comfortable stay at this lovely cottage. Lovely the sunset and just stepping out onto the beach with our dog. Great to have a garden to sit outside and the surrounding area is so unspoilt .
Wendy
We LOVED our stay in Girl Annie. The cottage was even lovelier than it looked on the website, perfectly designed to optimise space with a cosy country feeling. The sea view was spectacular from the living room and bedroom and the spacious garden...
