The Captains House

St Just, South West England

The Captains House
Tucked into St Just in Cornwall, The Captains House is a spacious cottage sleeping eight, making it a good choice for a family holiday or a group of friends exploring the far west of the county. The area's mining heritage is close at hand, with Geevor Tin Mine, the Hard Rock Museum and Levant Mine and Beam Engine all within a mile, offering plenty to fill a rainy afternoon.

For an evening meal, The Star Inn is a short drive away. Gwynver beach, with its excellent water quality, is about five miles off and well worth the trip for a proper Cornish coastal walk. Penzance station lies 6.7 miles away, useful if you're arriving by train and picking up a hire car from there.
