Thinking about summer…

The Loft at Sennen/ June 13, 2020/ Uncategorised

It’s certainly not been the 2020 we’d all hoped for.  Since we shut our doors in March, we’ve been so grateful to all our guests who’ve moved and delayed their visits to our holiday cottage in Sennen following the outbreak of Coronavirus.  We thank all of you for your patience and understanding, and we promise your trip to stay with

Roll on summer!

The Loft at Sennen/ March 5, 2020/ Uncategorised

We’ve had some epic storms this winter – Dennis and Ciara certainly made their presence felt for a few days.  We did our best to get pics but sometimes it was actually too windy to open the windows.  We were certainly very glad we’d done all the roof repairs last year.   But there’s nowhere better in Sennen for a spot

Happy Christmas!

The Loft at Sennen/ December 20, 2019/ News

A year ago today, we had the phone call that told us we’d finally bought The Loft, although it wasn’t called The Loft back then.  We’d rented the apartment for six years, and after six years of imagining what we’d do if we owned it, and after eight months or headaches and hiccups in the buying process, we couldn’t quite

When the weather turns…

The Loft at Sennen/ October 26, 2019/ Things to do

We’ve had a lovely half-term in Sennen this year.  October is always one of our favourite months here: the empty beaches, the mellow light, the sea still being warm (fingers crossed…).   But we do like it when the weather takes a turn for the worst too. We always wanted The Loft to be somewhere to curl up and stay warm,

Mayon Cliff

The Loft at Sennen/ August 23, 2019/ Things to do

We’re so lucky to have the beautiful landscape of Mayon Cliff just moments from our front door.  It’s looked after by the National Trust and the in the last few years they’ve refurbished the look-out, so there’s informational about the local area, what wildlife and sealife has spotted that week, and there’s a little shop inside too.  It’s a good

Walking with Llamas

The Loft at Sennen/ August 14, 2019/ Things to do

On a wet Tuesday morning, we took ourselves off to LLamalland Cornwall, just outside Truro. Set on Penare Farm, this 140 acre farm is home to a cloud (that’s what you call a herd) of llamas of all different shapes, colours and sizes.   The farmer’s passion for llamas was clear and he introduced us to every one of them by

Rocks and Sausage Rolls – Picnics

The Loft at Sennen/ May 27, 2019/ Uncategorised

We love a picnic at The Loft.   There’s something about setting out for the day, loaded with food that makes us happy before we’ve even got to the bottom of our blue steps.   Last summer, The Times picked their favourite picnic spots in the UK and Sennen Cove rightly popped up. Most days in the summer, like everyone else, we
