West Cornwall Holiday Cottages
Turquoise water, artists' light and the far west
About the area
Discover West Cornwall
West of Hayle the land narrows, the light sharpens and the sea turns an improbable turquoise. This is the Cornwall of painters, fishing villages and ancient granite moorland.
Galleries in St Ives, Mount's Bay views from Marazion, the open-air Minack Theatre and some of the clearest water in Britain make the far west endlessly rewarding.
