Beaches Whitesands Apartments, was originally built in the 1850's as the Sennen Cove Hotel. It is close to the cove but also has spectacular views across the bay. We have watched pods of dolphins playing in the surf, curious seals lifting their heads out of the water to watch the swimmers, even basking sharks (large but harmless plankton eaters) lazily drifting around the bay in June. Beaches offers all this and a spacious, comfortable and very well equipped holiday home for 8 people. Ten minute walk down to the beach and incredible cliff walks right out back with about a half hour to Land's End.
