West Cornwall Holidays
With many superb beaches to enjoy, including five with the coveted Blue Flag status, it is easy to see why so many people associate this part of the world with sun, sea, sand and, of course, surf. There is, however, so much more on offer when contemplating self catering holidays in West Cornwall.
West Cornwall is home to popular destinations such as Marazion, Penzance, Carbis Bay and St Ives, which are all worth a visit. From the iconic St Michael's Mount to the breath taking Minack Theatre as featured in our blog, you wont be short of things to do while self catering in West Cornwall.
Arts & Heritage
Famous for its quality of light, the area has long been a haven for artists and there are many galleries to be found wherever you go. There are also many gardens to enjoy; the mild climate will often let plants flourish here which you won’t find anywhere else in the country. For those wanting to dig a little deeper, there is also an amazing mining and maritime heritage which has done much to shape the county and its people as well as, it could be argued, the rest of the world.
Things to do in West Cornwall
Days out
With such an abundance of stunning sights in West Cornwall, you'll be spoilt for choice when choosing where to visit while holidaying here.

Mrs Hughes Nov 2020
We have stayed here twice and have booked for next year. It's perfect for us as it's off the beaten track but within easy travelling distance of good walking and facilities. Weather permitting, the night skies are great and sitting by the pond in the sunshine is so calming.
Mrs Nichols Oct 2020
Very clean and comfortable accommodation in good location. Well placed for exploring a beautiful area.
Mrs King Oct 2020
My wife and I enjoyed a glorious 10 days at Botrea Hayloft which we found to be very well equipped and spacious. It was comfortable and peaceful in the rural farm location, yet close to the places we wanted to visit. Would highly recommend. We always felt safe during the Covid 19 times. We had to move our booking from May until September and Aspect Holidays handled it all perfectly.
Mr Jude Sep 2020
One of the happiest most restful holidays we have ever had. Botrea is surrounded by countryside but only 15 mins from main supermarkets etc. High spec property lovingly restored by the current owners. Wonderfully comfortable bed, power shower and a lovely welcome pack on arrival. The kitchen is well equipped with all you need and the local fishmonger visits every Monday with an array of freshly caught fish to cook up for supper. Please visit, you won’t regret it. We hope to be back one day...a pure gem of a property.
Ms Wallace Sep 2020
This was a return stay for us at Botrea Hayloft and it was even better than we remembered. This characterful property is luxurious and comfortable. Hosts couldn't be more welcoming and we wanted for nothing. You wake up up to gorgeous views across Cornish countryside and, after breakfast by your own tranquil pond, all that Penwith has to offer - secret coves, cliff top walks, fantastic art - is all right on your doorstep. We really didn't want to leave...
Ms Seccull Aug 2020
My partner and I stayed at Botrea Hayloft for a week in July 2020. The accommodation itself and the hosts were so welcoming, even taking time out of their day to come and check up on us during our stay.
We felt at ease at the accommodation due to the explanation of additional procedures having been implemented to help reduce the risk of coronavirus transmission, such as: thorough cleaning of all surfaces, high touch points, cutlery and appliances. The hayloft came with everything that was needed to cook and clean and even extras that we didn’t expect, which were greatly appreciated. The location was ideal for our stay, with only being 15 minutes to neighbouring villages such as Mousehole, st.just and Sennen which are all defiantly worth a visit. Additionally, st ives only being a 30 minute drive away. We would definitely return and will recommend Botrea Hayloft to anyone looking to stay in cornwall! thanks for such a lovely stay :)
Mrs Fowkes Aug 2020
We arrived at Botrea Hayloft to a warm welcome Lights on/tea and coffee/biscuits/saffron buns/milk and butter - everything we needed Paget left us a message should we need anything and visited us the next day to see that all was well The Hayloft was very well equipped/warm and cosy We had a great time
Mrs Brackin Sep 2019
We loved our stay at Botrea Hayloft, leaving the obvious 'destinations' to one side this part of West Cornwall is perhaps the most untouched and beautiful, never more so than the coast road from Botrea to St Ives which is simply stunning. The hayloft itself was perfect for our stay, super clean and very comfortable, the owners had been particularly thoughtful in making the hayloft an extremely welcoming place to stay. For eating out we would recommend No.2 Fore Street in Mousehole and The Gurnards Head on the aforementioned coastal road where we enjoyed particularly good food and wine.
Ms Godefroy Sep 2019
Quietly located property, but highly accessible to all of Far West Cornwall. The owners have done a great job with the recent conversion of the hayloft and decorated it with local artwork. All in all, the perfect retreat for a couple.
Mr Sewell-Rutter Aug 2019
Botrea Hayloft provided us with a luxurious 'escape'. Tucked away in a hidden valley, it managed to be completely off the beaten track and at the same time allow easy access to all that Penwith has to offer. The sea is only 10 minutes away in two directions (St Just - and fantastic coastal walking or Newlyn - amazing seafood) and there are wonderful walks from your door. Hosts have really put thought into making this a really comfortable, high quality retreat. Would love to return!
Ms Seccull Aug 2019
This is an excellent location for touring the far west of Cornwall. The hayloft is very comfortable and well fitted and the owners are welcoming and will ensure your stay is comfortable. An excellent place to relax.
Mr Share Jul 2019
