Boswedden House

Boswedden House is a beautiful Georgian house set in 1.5 acres (.6 Ha) of garden. The rooms are large with plenty of natural light. All the bedrooms are en suite and have central heating. In chilly weather we light an open fire in the lounge.

The house is warm, comfortable and friendly. Nigel and Thelma have created a nurturing environment in which people feel supported in taking time out for self-exploration and healing and in finding rest and inspiration.

The unspoilt, rugged Cornish countryside is wild & elemental. Experiencing it helps us to strengthen our connection with the earth and with our spirituality. The luminosity of the constantly changing sea/skyscape is inspirational.

The vista that surrounds us...

The house is 10 minutes walk from the sea at Priest's Cove and looks out over fields and National Trust land to the sea. The South West Coast Path and mile upon mile of stunning scenery is even nearer. In spring the hedges and pastures are filled with wild flowers. St. Just, the most westerley town in mainland Britain, is just under a mile to our east.

This area has the largest concentration of ancient sites in the British Isles. The nearby former Geevor tin mine captures the 4000 year history of mining in this district. The South West Coast Path is readily accessible for spectacular walks - long or short.

Leisure Facilities

At the hotel: Our own indoor heated swimming pool (March-October) is well suited for children and adults alike. Cape Cornwall golf course is a two minute walk away and horseback riding, fishing, diving and, of course, sea bathing and surfing are all nearby.

How to get here

BY CAR/BICYCLE: From the Market Square in the centre of St Just, take the Cape Cornwall road (1st left after the Co-op if heading north). We are a mile (1.6 Km) down this road on the right by the sharp left bend and about half a mile (800 m) from the sea.

WALKING: From the SW Coast Path take the road from Cape Cornwall to St. Just. You will see us straight ahead where the road takes a sharp right.
