The Land's End Peninsula or West Penwith is a landscape of towering granite cliffs, moors and prehistoric monuments. In this book we follow the north coast along the West Penwith Moors from St Ives to Zennor and the Gurnard's Head. Then it's onto the tin mining landscape of Pendeen and St Just and the famous clifftop tin mines at Levant and Geevor. Next come the glorious surfing beaches of Gwynver and Sennen and past Land's End to Gwenapp Head, Porthgwarra and the clifftop theatre of the Minack at Porthcurno. Just beyond Lamorna and Mousehole the coast starts to soften as we enter Mount's Bay and Newlyn, Penzance, Marazion and St Michael's Mount come into view. Finally onto the lovely family beaches of Praa Sands, Perranuthnoe and Prussia Cove. This book guides you to the ancient monuments, the best beaches, places to visit and walks.

Land’s End guidebook
Fascinating to see the differences between Land’s End / West Penwith and the Lizard. The guidebook will enable me to plan my visits to West Penwith while staying on the Lizard and indulge my fascination for pre-history.

Enjoy Cornwall like a local
These Friendly Guides are just that, friendly helpful and local, like a good friend. So impressed with this guide and the in-depth inside track information that I’ve bought another for the Lizard Peninsula. Can thoroughly recommend.
