Description

Perched above Whitesands Bay and just a couple of minutes’ walk from Sennen Cove Harbour, Top Cottage is a rare opportunity to own a truly special coastal retreat. Whether you're seeking a thriving holiday let—as it currently operates—or a peaceful full-time residence, this detached 2-bedroom eco cottage offers the perfect blend of modern comfort, sustainable living, and spectacular natural beauty.
Completed in 2010, the property was newly built on the site of a previous cottage, combining all the benefits of modern building technology with the charm of a historic location. Designed with sustainability in mind, the cottage features solar panels that supply plenty of hot water, supported by a traditional immersion heater on cloudy days. A living roof, planted with native wildflowers and grasses, shifts beautifully with the seasons and provides natural insulation—keeping the house cool in summer and warm in winter.
Inside, the cottage has a peaceful, light-filled atmosphere during the day, while a wood-burning stove ensures a cosy, warm retreat at night. The two spacious double bedrooms make it perfect for couples, small families, or guests.
The outdoor spaces are just as thoughtfully designed. To the rear, a terrace overlooking the sea is ideal for enjoying breakfast with panoramic views, while to the front, a sun-soaked, south-facing courtyard offers a more private escape—sheltered from the wind and bathed in sunlight for most of the day. An outdoor heated shower is perfect for rinsing off after a swim or surfing session, and inside, a luxurious walk-in shower adds a touch of indulgence.
Tucked into the hillside, Top Cottage is cleverly positioned to take in both the north-facing sea view and the warmth of the southern sun. The cottage also comes with one private parking space, a rare and valuable feature in this popular coastal village.
Whether you're looking for a turnkey investment or a tranquil seaside home, Top Cottage delivers comfort, sustainability, and stunning views in one of Cornwall’s most desirable locations.
