Sun, sun, sun…

The Loft at Sennen/ July 31, 2022/ Things to do

We’ve seen some amazing weather down on the Cove this summer.  On Thursday night we sat out late on the beach with the air as still as we’ve ever known it, and the water as warm as we can remember.   Obviously prolonged periods of sunshine mean the sea temperature rises and this year we’ve even been bodyboarding without wetsuits and

Welcome back…

The Loft at Sennen/ June 18, 2022/ Uncategorised

It’s been lovely this year to welcome back guests to The Loft after the last few years’ uncertainty.  Having replaced our deck last year with new cedar wood and a hurricane-proof glass, this year we were able to concentrate on getting the kitchen just how we want it, right down to the new Nespresso machine.    So far, there’s been

Closed for now…

The Loft at Sennen/ February 10, 2021/ Uncategorised

We remain closed for the time being as per the Government guidelines.   We’d like to thank our guests who’ve postponed their stays with us for being so understanding and look forward to welcoming you back later in the year, hopefully.  In the meantime, stay safe and warm!  

Up and away from the crowds …

The Loft at Sennen/ August 9, 2020/ News

We’ve been delighted to welcome guests back to The Loft this summer.   There’s been lots of stories in the press about how packed the Cornish beaches have been – and that clearly has been true in some places, judging by some of the pictures in the press – but we’ve found plenty of places where we had space and were

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,

A little time to unwind…

The Loft at Sennen/ September 25, 2019/ Things to do

October can see some spectacular storms roll in at Sennen.  Sometimes it’s just nice to curl up with book and watch the waves on the harbour, but we recently treated ourselves to a visit from local spa therapist, Laura Maddocks, who brought her own luxury treatments to The Loft.  Laura has her own therapy table which was really comfortable and

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
