Cape Cornwall tin mine was operated intermittently between 1838 and 1883 after which time it was closed, the 1864 chimney from the mine has been left as a navigational marker for shipping traffic and stands tall on the top of the Cape. The surrounding National Trust farm land has been converted into an 18 hole golf course with leisure facilities including an indoor swimming pool (although this is currently being renovated). There is also a bar and dining room open to non-members. Weekly membership of the Golf and Leisure Club is available for visitors. Both Sennen Cove, with its long sandy surfing beach, and Land's End are within easy reach. St. Ives and the Tate Gallery are a short drive along the coast road through some of Cornwall's best moorland and Heritage tin mining areas. Local shopping facilities are about a mile away at St. Just and the larger resorts of St. Ives and Penzance are within easy driving distance along with many attractions including St Michael’s Mount and The Eden Project

A clean and comfortable studio with a fantastic outlook.
This was our second visit to the studio and we found it just as enjoyable as the first. It has all the home comforts and a fabulous outlook over Cape Cornwall. The South West Coast Path and the Cape Cornwall golf course are on the doorstep and it is only a short walk to all the essentials in St. Just. The bus services in St. Just are very good with the coast route to St. Ives an experience. The studio has no WiFi but there are access points at the Golf club and in St Just.

Coastal Spot
Excellent location with views over the headland. Lots of local walks. Long drive to the far end of Cornwall but worth the effort.

The studio is well set out, with everything a couple can need for the holiday. Even a coffee pod machine, so perfect. Thank you. The view is heavenly as a bonus. We'll definitely return.

Amazing views, perfect location
This is the third time we have stayed in the studio because of its amazing views over cape Cornwall and itA?s right on the coastal footpaths. We love watching the weather come in over the cape. The studio itself is very comfortable with all you need for a weekA?s holiday. This year they had added a new sofa which was very comfy and perfect for curling up on in the evenings and watching a dvd.

It has been our pleasure.
We have just enjoyed a super short stay holiday at this venue. the location, absolutely stunning , quiet but ideal for visiting all the main attractions in this part of Cornwall. but just so lovely to go back to the Studio at the end of a busy day and just relax and take in the fantastic views all around you. Warning you wont be able to return quick enough!!!

Stay in a very cold February
The Studio is comfortably big enough for 2 and very well equipped. We stayed at the time that there were sub-zero temperatures and snow, and the Studio was warm enough. The owners, Roy and June, lived on site and were very helpful throughout. The only negative point about this property is the parking, which is very tight if you have a long car( e.g. an estate). Luckily there was no one parked next to us, so we could manoeuvre our car out of the space.

Half term break
The most beautiful part of the Cornwall outside your window, excellent weather, walking distance to St Just. Perfect location for any time of the year. Village shop (Co-Op) provide everything you need for food, walks starts outside your doorstep. We had an amazing break, definitely going to be back.

Left my heart in Nanpean
I love coming back to this place. No holiday in the planet will beat the views from the flat. The studio had everything we need including complimentary milk pint, coffee and sugar. Flat is clean and hygienic. No complaints here. Thanks

A lovely September break
The studio was warm and comfortable despite unseasonably cold and very windy weather. We had everything we needed and we found the location and views truly stunning. It was also a good base for exploring the far western tip of Cornwall.

Relaxing February
All you need for a relaxing holiday. Clean, warm, comfy and convenient location. Next time I won't order the sea mist, but then again why would I book a holiday by the coast in February if I didn't want to see the changes in the weather?

Our third visit
We had another great week here, out every day walking the coastal path and returning to relax in such a comfortable well equipped spot with those wonderful views. I don't think we will ever tire of it.

ANOTHER GREAT WEEK IN CORNWALL
Very good (as we'd expected from previous stays in the block). To add further comment would be nit-picking! But next time we would return to a larger apartment within the Nanpean Barn.

Excellent holiday
If you want to get away from it all, do stay at Cape Cornwall. Ideal for getting onto the coastal foodpath & the sights in the area. St Just handy for shops and pubs.

Ideal studio for two in a great location.
The views and location would be hard to better. Good that the basic essentials were supplied as well, which is not always the case. The golf club for wifi connection were very helpful and eating there was very nice as well. Initially we found mobile phone connection very poor in the studio but later realised that the best connectivity occurred when we left phones on the dining table in the right hand corner. Facilities in the outbuildings were good with washing powder etc also provided. Washing cycles were a lot longer than expected. We had a super week and would certainly hope to return soon.

Great for 2 in a wonderful location.
This studio flat is just right for 2 people, although you could fight over best seating position for the view! Well furnished and equipped. The view over the golf course to Cape Cornwall is perfect. Perfectly located for coastal path walking, however the bus service could be better in tying up so that you don't have to walk both ways. Also good for St Ives, Penzance, Minnack Theatre and much more if you want to ring the changes. Cornwall at its best - quiet and unspoilt.

Beautiful location and accommodation
We had a wonderful week at the Studio. The views from the property were the highlight, sitting on the sofa and looking out over the sun setting over Cape Cornwall was truly breathtaking. The accommodation itself was comfortable, fresh and contemporary. It had everything we needed in the kitchen to make some great meals using lovely local produce. It was more than big enough for the two of us and we appreciated the dishwasher in the apartment and the washing machine just opposite, great extras! We would definitely return.

Perfect place
After a couple of times in Cornwall we have to say this is the place to stay. A perfect location and base to explore the Cape Cornwall area including St. Ives. The costal footpath is only a few meters away, St. Just has good pubs and the viewing around the cape Cornwall bay is stunning.

Beautiful cottage with incredible views.
The cottage is in a great location with stunning views available from the window. Great customer service and a nice stay. Parking space is a touch tight since it's in the nearside corner, but no real issues. The cottage itself was in good condition and it was clean. Would recommend to anyone considering a remote stay surrounded by great views with some peace and quiet!

So good we want to live here!
Beautiful location, amazing views of the sea from inside and outside the property. Very quiet location. Owners very helpful and friendly. Spacious accommodation for two people. Full cooking facilities which were tested thoroughly by us as we both have special diets so cooked our own food every day. Only issue was that the information we received before arrival was that towels are provided so we didn't take any of our own. However, we were only provided with one bath and one hand towel each for the whole week which meant we had to spend time washing and drying them every day. Not a problem - we'll just take some of our own towels next time......

Just doesn't get any better.
How could you get much better than Nanpean? Mr Turvil has done a superb job creating the apartments and The Studio works well for two people, being compact but feeling quite spacious with the dual aspect allowing the light to flood in. The view from the window is unbeatable, dramatic and ever changing, it would be possible to spend a week just gazing out. One of the bugbears of staying in cottages is parking space - Nanpean has dedicated spaces so that's another big plus point!

Stunning location!!
It's a lovely comfortable place. The only small thing was not enough hot water. The shower ran cold during the second shower most days and it went a little chilly at night. Night storage heaters. The owners particularly asked that you do not interfere with them.
From the Owner:
Sorry about the hot water. I will check that the timer is correctly set and
adjust to allow a longer heating period.

The Cape caps it all
A lovely location to enjoy the westernmost past of England with the rugged coastline, Atlantic rollers and wonderful coves on your doorstep. The Studio has great views over Cape Cornwall with its iconic tin mining chimney and watching golfers taking on what is one of the most beautiful and challenging links courses in England. With St, Ives, Land's End and tourist attractions like Flambards all within easy drives makes being at the 'end of the lane' no problem, and the local town of St Just is delightful to visit by foot. The Studio has every convenience and the booking process matched its quality. What a pleasure to meet the owners who live nearby and have clearly invested in the property over many years, and their attention to detail is evidenced by the many repeat visitors of their guests!

Nanpean Studio is small but very well equipped and ideal for a couple. The location overlooking Cape Cornwall is stunning with St Just and its amenities just a short walk away. We had an excellent stay at this property and would highly recommend it. Thanks Paddy Lynch

nice studio
A very nice studio set in a great bay.Close to st just we walked in most nights.Fantastic views and great two week break.Our only concern was quite hard to park in bay one and the issue of no dogs when other units allow.

Perfect Accomodation at a Perfect Location
Absolutely faultless accomodation for two (or one) in a perfect location just above the Cape. The view from the living room window is breathtaking, an absolute picture postcard. The location is ideal for anyone who just wants to walk everywhere, forget the car, and let the magic of the West Penwith peninsula blow away all the cobwebs of modern living.

Our wonderful stay at Nanpean Barn
We had a lovely week at The Studio, Nanpean Barn, the views from the window seat over the golf course were absolutely stunning, and the sunsets too. The studio itself was a lovely place to stay, very comfortable and clean with everything you need. A short walk down to the cape gives you a choice of coastal walks, with stunning views all around. We will return as soon as we can.

A comfortable clean and well equipped holiday property in a converted barn with modern furnishings, compact but not cramped, and with everything needed to hand, in an excellent location overlooking Cape Cornwall, with wonderful views and sunsets, good coastal walking and interesting places to visit nearby. We will definitely be returning!
From the Owner:
We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay in The Studio and look forward to seeing you again.
