“A super little cottage, exactly as described.”

Everything you could think of was provided. An ideal base to explore the local area, with plenty of walks and pubs nearby in St Just, along with a Co-op and cafes. A lovely touch were some flowers on arrival, along with a bottle of wine and a cream tea. We highly recommend this cottage.

“Our 2nd time staying here, just as last time it was just perfect for us and our lab.”

It has everything you need. Lovely and quiet but not far from St Just. The Queens Arms pub nearby does delicious food and they are so friendly. We will definitely be back for a 3rd visit.

- Rachael, November 2024
David October 2024

“Lovely place and excellent value.”

The generous welcome of scones and cream, wine and milk was a nice touch. Only suggestions would be to provide better information about local walks especially for those with dogs. Facilities fine, but the TV was temperamental.

- David, October 2024
Anthony October 2024

“We have just spent the most peaceful ,relaxing two weeks at five degrees west.”

We fell in love with the little cottage, everything you could wish for is provided along with wine, scones, clotted cream, fresh flowers and treats for our little dog. All very much appreciated. We would recommend this cottage without reservation. Thank you so much

Gary July 2024

“The owners were there if you needed them, and did help us get to the property when roadworks had closed one end, which was nice.”

Appreciated the way the property has been fitted out to a good standard - it was nice to come back to after a day out. They have thought through and provided everything you may need. The welcome treats were a thoughtful touch and enjoyed! Great location for the local old mining area, and Queens Arms was a great pub a short walk away - drink and food were excellent. We kept our dog out of the bedroom - too nice to spoil it. The outside sitting area was smaller than we imagined from photos.

- Gary, July 2024

Carol Ann June 2024

“Lovely property, perfect for 2 and our pup.”

Everything you could think of in the property for our convenience. So quiet and the view of the sea in the distance was a real bonus. Local town close by and lovely Sennen Cove just a short drive away. The weather was kind all week, we had a fabulous relaxed break and would definitely book again. Thank you.

“Accommodation perfect for a couple and dog, looking for escapism in a beautiful part of the UK with wonderful walks.”

Modern, clean, warm and well equipped. Hosts are on site but not imposing but available if required and we’re very helpful. Location perfect for quiet retreat, pub and coast in walking distance. Perfect for visits to Lands End and west Cornwall, beautiful areas. Price value for money. Welcome pack generous and a lovely surprise. I have recommended to friends and one has already booked. Definitely recommend and would return *****

“Lovely little property, perfect for 2 and our dog (who was very well catered for).”

Lovely peaceful location. We were very happy and couldnt fault it but unfortunately due to a family emergency we had to return home after just 2 days. But would certainly consider returning if holidaying in the area again.

- Lynda, September 2023
Christine September 2023

“Immaculately clean property with every facility provided you could possibly need right down to 2 dog towels, water bowls a jar of biscuits and a special packet of treats.”

A very very generous welcome tray as well and when I failed to get the foot rest on the chair to work almost as soon as I had phoned the owner for help there was a knock on the door. Lovely and caring couple Thank you. Loved it.

We had a wonderful stay at Five Degrees West and would highly recommend a visit The property was well equipped with everything we needed and was spotlessly clean and comfortable We were greeted with a cream tea and wine and a big jar of biscuits for our dog All of which were greatly appreciated and such a lovely welcome The property was really well situated to explore this beautiful part of Cornwall The pubs in St Just and Botallack were really friendly serving good food and the surrounding area was absolutely stunning We found everyone really welcoming and dog friendly We loved our stay and would definitely like to come back in the future Penny and Carl from West Sussex

- Penny, September 2023
Sally September 2023

“The property is small but perfectly formed!”

Ideal for a couple and has everything you need provided for a lovely break. It was spotlessly cleaned and very well furnished. There was a welcome gift and the owner was very considerate as came to apologise the wi fi was down when we arrived and knocked with a fan on a very warm evening. You can walk to the local pub which does good food but the town of St Just is a bit further. Lovely accommodation.

- Sally, September 2023
Ian September 2023

“We had an amazing holiday at Five Degrees West, the cottage was well equipped and we loved the welcome package.”

Stunning views from the cottage There was some work going on next door to us but it didn't really bother us as we were out exploring this beautiful part of cornwall. So much to see and do here, highly recommend The Minack Theatre, Mousehole, Gwynver Beach, Chysauster Ancient Village are all worth a visit. We would return here in the future with out a doubt

- Ian, September 2023
Allison August 2023

Cottage very close to coastal walk, in particular the Tin Coast. Thank you to our hosts for not only making us welcome, but the dog too.

- Allison, August 2023

Very clean and beautifully decorated A great stay all round Lovely treats for us and Theo the pooch. Thank you to vickie and Adam.

- Christopher, August 2023
Andy August 2023

“A great setup and location for our week away and we were very pleased with the facilities, the cleanliness and we would most definitely recommend the property to other holiday makers.”

We hope to come down again at some point and your property will be seriously considered should we come to stay in the St Just area.

- Andy, August 2023
Chris August 2023

“We had a lovely time at Five degrees west, the property was as described clean and comfortable for both us and our dog, it does have quite a small enclosed garden, however there are a couple of fields 50 yards up the country lane for your dog to burn off some energy.”

We were welcomed with chocolates, wine and scones with clotted cream and jam which my wife especially made short work of, unnecessary gifts but very thoughtful. This is definitely a perfect spot for peace and quiet and perfectly central for travelling to all the coastal towns. We would definitely consider this property when visiting Cornwall again.

- Chris, August 2023

This isa lovely property, quality furnishings, the kitchen is very well equipped with everything you need,we loved the welcome gifts especially the dog ones,alot of thought has gone into this property, in an area of outstanding beauty with lots of lovely places to visit, would highly recommend

- Jane, July 2023
Annette July 2023

“This was by far the best holiday cottage we’ve stayed in.”

It was beautifully decorated, everything you needed to hand (we knew no washing machine and so we’re prepared) and the welcome pack was awesome and much appreciated! It’s an amazing conversion job, well done to the builder. Great location too with sea views, ideal for coastal walking and even better to have a friendly pub with great food in a short walking distance! I was worried about the smaller bed (my husband is 6ft 7) but it wasn’t a problem at all. If we could change one thing it would be to have had a memory foam topper as the bed was a bit too firm for us. But that’s being nit picky and you are never going to please everyone all of the time. We were sad to leave and longing to return already!

- Annette, July 2023
Dominica June 2023

“Started off so well, cottage way above our expectations.”

Spotlessly clean, quiet, well laid out with everything we could possibly need. Until Wednesday afternoon when we returned after lunch to a flat back scaffolding lorry parked sideways on our drive. We had to cram on drive best we could. As we like to settle down in the afternoon, this became impossible as the men with lorry began noisily unloading and erecting scaffolding poles, we were also very concerned as our car was right up against the lorry and it was unsettling our dog who went into sentry mode barking/pacing. We said nothing thinking it was a one off but on returning Thursday afternoon there was the lorry, 2 men, more poles and a radio! Again had to cram car on! Got in touch with Sykes who were immediately very understanding but totally unaware of any building work taking place on the property saying they would contact the owners. We heard nothing more from Sykes, the scaffolders continued but turned the radio off! It was too much for us so we packed up and left! At no time did the owner get in touch to inform us the lorry would be there cause had we have known we could have arranged our days so we stayed out longer. In fact had we have known there was building work being undertaken we wouldn’t have booked! We came away for peace and quiet, we didn’t get it! Not booking with Sykes again as it appears they think more of their property owners than the people who book with them. Such a shame, lovely property!

- Dominica, June 2023

Thank you we appreciate your comments regarding the property as we always strive to present the accommodation as best as we possibly can. With regards to the scaffold lorry although it was here for a short period of time if we had been pre warned of its attendance we could have spoken with you about it and either rearrange the date to Friday or agreed some times with you to avoid any disruption to your break away.

Gordon June 2023

“The owners thought of everything - it was lovely.”

Coffee pods and machine, nice bottle of wine, clotted cream and lovely vase of flowers. Well equipped and clean. The TV did puzzle us a bit but who goes on holiday to watch TV?

Lucy April 2023

“We were grateful for the instant attention the cottage received when we raised issues.”

The whole thing was superb. The double bed was standard size (4' 6") which we find difficult, but that's only our preference. A larger one would not fit in! Would certainly recommend it for a couple.

- Lucy, April 2023

Lovely welcome pack of goodies kindly left for our arrival. The owners had thought of everything that might be needed in a holiday cottage and it was spotlessly clean. We took our dog and there were bowls, towels, throws and even biscuits provided. We had a very enjoyable week and would highly recommend Five Degrees West to others.

- Susan, July 2022
John June 2022

“This was our first stay here and although small, it has everything you need.”

The furnishings and kitchen are all good quality and the cottage was very comfortable to stay in. Excellent position, with just a 15 minute walk to the coastal path and historic mines. The little courtyard is very small, but has the sun all day and is sheltered from the wind. We really appreciated the fresh cream, scones, jam, wine and fresh flowers. Owner also texted us when the cottage was ready, as it was before the arrival time.

- John, June 2022

Absolutely fantastic accommodation, we would definitely recommend and revisit, ideal location for touring the west of Cornwall, we really enjoyed walking in to the accommodation and finding a bottle of wine, scones with jam and cream, milk in the fridge, also all the treats for our boy Benson (who smelt them straight away being a Ladrador ) the fresh flowers was a lovely touch, well designed and great colour palette

Spotlessly clean, bright and airy, with everything you might need for your stay.

Five Degrees West is an ideal base for exploring the area either on foot or driving further afield to enjoy this beautiful Duchy.

Marley and Buddy (my dogs) had treats and bowls left for them. The cottage is ideal for visiting West Cornwall and is in easy reach of a number of gardens and other visitor attractions including Lands End and Geevor Mine. Two dog friendly cafes were the Front Room in Penzance, which brought water and treats for the dogs, and the Rock Pool Cafe in Mousehole. The Old Coastguard Hotel also welcomes dogs and does a great pint of lager on a hot day.

- Miss, June 2021
Brian May 2021

Everything about it was perfect. The owners had gone the extra mile in decorating it for Christmas, and they left us a wonderful welcome pack including flowers, Prosecco, luxury chocolates and a Cornish Cream tea!

Ernest March 2019

“We could not have wished for anything better.”

All the walks were so handy ,trips to nearby towns great. The addition of the coffee machine excellent.For me a set of scales helped me to work out my diabetic meals as they should be not just guessing .Even the dog was so well catered for,could not fault any thing.

- Ernest, March 2019
Denise March 2019

“On arrival we had been left a cream tea, bottle of wine & there were flowers in a vase which gives it that personal touch.”

Roy November 2018

“Exceptional little barn conversion.”

Perfect for the 2 of us and Jasper the dog. Everything you could need and more, and the icing on the cake a very thoughtful welcome gift of flowers, wine and scones with jam and cream...yummy! The owners have thought of everything, and the cottage is very dog friendly, which is a rare thing. It's certainly a credit to the owners. Very clean, modern and cosy. Also, no intrusion what's so ever from the owners but always knowing that if we did have a problem then they would be there. Fantastic coastal walks just a 10 minute Walk from the barn to Botallack, making your way to Cape Cornwall and Pendeen Light house, or taking a longer breathtaking walk to Sennen Cove along the coastline and beyond. St Just is just a 15/20 minute walk or free carparking a 5 minute drive. Everything you could need from a Co-op, Fish and chips, Chinese, bakery and more. We cannot praise the owners enough, you will not be disappointed. We are certainly going to be booking the cottage again for next year ( Only if the owners, Adam and Vickie would have us!). The dog loves it and we were over the moon. Many thanks for making our stay perfect. It's a little gem of a place.

Alan October 2018

“A very well thought out conversion that makes the best use of space, ideal for a couple and a medium sized dog.”

The accommodation is well equipped; we could easily self cater and eat out should we wish. The owners are very welcoming and dog friendly. The position balanced a secluded, quiet location with a 20 minute walk into St Just which was just right for us, others might prefer to trade peace for a closer location to the town. On a clear night the views of the Scilly Isles are spectacular.

- Alan, October 2018
Helen September 2018

“Five degrees west is an exceptional little cottage, very clean very comfortable & the owners couldn’t have been more helpful with their local knowledge they made our stay very enjoyable.”

If I had any criticism it would be that the cottage had Wi-fi but no data connection, as we had never explored this area before it would have been helpful to to look up places on the internet to see what there was when traveling around. Only a little criticism but it would have made a huge difference

“It was a wonderful cottage and exceeded our expectations!”

Everything we needed was on hand and we even got to the cottage and there had been. Some flowers left with a cream tea and some treats for the dog! It was such a great welcome for us when travelling over 5 hours! The area was great and there were lots of amenities close by for us and our little doggy! Thank you for such a wonderful holiday!

“This property although small was very well fitted out.”

The kitchen area was great and there was everything you needed in the way of kitchen equipment.Everything was spotlessly clean and we were welcomed with a bottle of wine and provisions for a cream tea. The cottage was in an excellent position for exploring this part of Cornwall.Our car stayed parked until we left as the buses were so good to use and there was a bus stop within less than 10 mins walk. During the week we managed to see a lot of the area including Land's End, Sennen Cove and three excellent tin mines.We travelled up to St.Ives to visit the Tate gallery and also went to the Telegraph Museum in Porthcurno.The National Trust gardens at Tregwainton were beautiful,well worth a visit. We hope to return to this area again and probably to this cottage.

“It was small and compact and had everything that you could wish for.”

A lot of thought had been made to make it really comfortable, plenty of cupboard space and a really decent size shower, very welcome after a day out. Not far from the coastline and the wonderful rugged cliffs. Would definitely use again.

“We stayed at Five Degrees West for 4 nights for our mini moon.”

It is in a beautiful and quiet location, extremely clean and well equipped and 10 minutes walk from the local pub The Queens Head which serves delicious food. The owners left us a little welcome gift of fresh flowers, a bottle of wine and a cream tea which was very lovely and much appreciated. The cottage is also a 5 minute drive or 20 - 30 minute walk from St Just which has another great pub, an amazing fish and chip shop, a co-op, butchers and bakery. The location is excellent to get around much of Southern Cornwall, much of which was reachable within 30 - 45 minutes. Around the cottage there is local coastal walks, Old mining sites and beaches very nearby. We would definitely stay again, and would highly recommend staying here.

A great surprise upon arrival for the bottle of prosecco, a vase of cut flowers, a packet of dog treats for our dog and the scones with jam and clotted cream was enjoyed by all.

The property

Five Degrees West is a special bolt-hole designed for couples in real-life Poldark country with glorious open rural views to the sea and the isles of Scilly on the horizon.

Head along winding countryside lanes to this area of outstanding natural beauty on the outskirts of the town of St Just, in the far west of Cornwall.

Peaceful but not isolated with a spattering of outlying neighbours, including the owner's home, this rural location is bliss for ramblers, romantics, beachcombers and city escapees seeking some serious R&R. Five Degrees West is wonderfully placed for coastal escapades and exploring the rugged character of this incredible corner of the county.

Heaven for ramblers, you can walk from the door with dog in tow along the south west coast path on tall granite cliffs or immerse yourself in wild moorland for stunning scenery.

Discover a warm welcome at St Just and traditional pubs serving food, cafes, art galleries, super-market, baker, butcher and greengrocer.

Spectacular Cape Cornwall peninsula, Priests Cove and the secluded beach at Cot Valley are also nearby.

The world class beaches at St Ives and Sennen and the landmark attractions at iconic Land's End, the island topped castle of St Michael's Mount and The Minack, Cornwall's famous open-air cliff-top theatre, are all less than a 20 minute drive. Return from rambling escapades to this super smart detached, getaway and cosy up.

An intimate space arranged on one level, 5 Degrees West is small but perfectly formed.

Step inside onto an open plan living room with exposed beams, oak wood flooring and a sleek kitchen equipped with all the mods cons including a coffee maker.

Kick back on the oversized reclining sofa, the perfect spot to enjoy the DAB radio, a movie, board game or good book from the selection provided.

Guests will sleep soundly in the comfortable bedroom and wake to the dreamiest views and invigorating showers.

Dogs are well catered for too with complimentary dog treats, food and water bowl and freshly laundered blanket and towels.

Outside is a small enclosed sun-trap courtyard with garden furniture for distant sea views and alfresco meals.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £100.

About the location

ST JUST

Penzance 7.2 miles; St Ives 12.9 miles.

The town itself is an ancient settlement that has a strong mining history and there are several monuments and prehistoric antiquities to visit including the Bronze Age settlement at Cape Cornwall. St Just is ideally located for visitors to explore the far west of Cornwall as it is situated on the edge of the moors and close to the beautiful north coast. In the centre of the town is Plain-an-Gwarry, a theatre used for miracle plays in medieval times, and in more recent times for the Lafrowda Festival.
