St Just – Britain’s Most Westerly Town

St Just sits in the far west of Cornwall, close to Land’s End, where the coastline is at its most dramatic and untamed. It is a quiet, historic granite town that rewards a slow wander, with local art galleries, independent shops, cafés and traditional pubs around the Market Square and the 15th century parish church.

The town grew up on tin and copper mining, and the cliffs to the north are lined with engine houses at Botallack, Levant and Geevor, now part of the Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape World Heritage Site. Just west of the town, Cape Cornwall – the only cape in England – looks out over the Brisons rocks, while the South West Coast Path leads north towards Pendeen and Zennor and south through Cot Valley to Sennen Cove and Land’s End. Walkers can also follow the Scenic Trail from St Ives to Land’s End.

Land’s End & Sennen Cove

Land’s End marks the dramatic full stop at the very tip of mainland Britain, where towering granite cliffs meet the full force of the Atlantic. On a clear day the views stretch to the Longships Lighthouse and, further still, to the Isles of Scilly on the horizon.

A couple of miles along the coast, Sennen Cove has one of Cornwall’s finest beaches – a wide sweep of golden sand backed by a small working harbour, cafés and surf shops. Between the two, the coast path traces the clifftops past hidden coves and wildflower heathland, with seals and the occasional basking shark offshore.
