About Carn Towan

Carn Towan clings to the Cornish coast, a scattering of stone against the immense sweep of the Atlantic. It lies 4.7 km south of St Just (from St Just: bearing 188°T, OS grid SW 361 267), and is situated north-east of Sennen Cove village. The air here carries the sharp tang of salt and the distant cry of gulls, a constant reminder of the sea's proximity. Low walls, often topped with thrift, follow the contours of the land, a quiet testament to generations of tending the soil. In the clear light, the granite of the cottages seems to absorb the very essence of the rugged landscape, their roofs a muted palette of slate and lichen. The narrow lanes, trodden smooth by countless feet, wind between them, leading towards the ever-present horizon.
