Location

Sennen is a highly desirable coastal location situated near Land’s End in far-west Cornwall, offering a blend of rural tranquillity, dramatic scenery, and exceptional beach access. The area is best known for Sennen Cove, a sweeping sandy bay with turquoise waters, making it one of Cornwall’s most attractive beaches for families, surfers, and holidaymakers. Properties in Sennen benefit from proximity to the South West Coast Path, panoramic sea views, and access to unspoilt coastal landscapes.

The village itself features a mix of traditional granite cottages, modern coastal homes, and holiday properties, with many residences positioned to take advantage of the Atlantic outlook. Amenities include a local pub, cafés, small shops, and a historic parish church, while the nearby town of Penzance provides broader services, supermarkets, and transport links, including rail connections.

Sennen offers a peaceful lifestyle with a strong sense of community, yet sees increased seasonal activity during the summer months. Its combination of natural beauty, beachside living, and investment potential-particularly for holiday lettings-makes it an appealing location for both permanent residents and second-home buyers.
