“A little piece of heaven . . .” That’s how the local postman has described Vellandreath Cornish Cottages, 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.
This cosy Cornish cottage is perfect for families and boasts an enclosed south-facing garden with wonderful sea views. Inside every room has a sea view in this whitewashed, south-facing fisherman’s cottage, which nestles in the dunes amongst palm trees with the beach just 200 metres away…
What our guests say...
We have been coming to VELLANDREATH over the last 16 years. The cottages are beautifully nested in the stunning valley. So much attention given to properties and gardens. We made more very special memories and we hope and plan to be back...

We had another fantastic week in the Vellandreath Valley and loved being back in Whitesand Bay. The tranquility of the location and the daily walk to the beach and village through the dunes was just magical.

This was a special week in a special place. Sennen Beach is fantastic and dramatic, and the cottage cosy and beautifully done up. Our young (and loud) kids absolutely loved it, and we soon stopped worrying about their nuisance value to neighbours as the property is so well insulated...

Great location, great house. A big thanks to Brian, what a completely relaxed and yet attentive chap. We look forwards to returning someday.

Whitebreakers was just perfect for us. Lovely garden with sea view and sea views from most of the windows in the cottage. We had 4 lovely days of sunshine in October. Brian was very helpful as usual and his dog Sidney was very lovely !

As perfect as ever. Wonderful place, truly magical - and while it poured in the rest of the UK the sun shone.
Tim Halford
Wonderful cottage, full of nooks and crannies, cosy and perfect for shutting out the world for a few days. February is the best time for solitary walks along the coast. We will come again next year.

Beautiful location, cottage well equipt and very clean. Peace and tranquility meant great place to switch off and get away from it all. Beautiful beach and coastal walks from the door. Great surfing! Definitely be booking again.

We had a fantastic holiday in the lovely Whitebreakers cottage. The weather was very wet and windy but the cottage was always warm and the log burner made it even more cozy. Brian was incredibley helpful from our first call to tell him our expected arrival until we left...
