Mackerel Sky is ideally situated, an easy walk into St Just or down the Cot Valley to the coast a d only a 10 minute drive to the fabulous beach at Sennen. The cottage is clean and comfortable and we have just returned from our 5th visit.

Very nice cottage located in a very attractive part of Cornwall. Good facilities, with excellent parking available.

Mackerel Sky cottage in St Just is perfect for a holiday. The location is very quiet and ideal for a quick walk into St Just across a couple of fields or down the Cot Valley to the coast and spending many hours just taking in the beautiful coastal scenery. The cottage is warm and well equipped. 2025 was our third stay and it certainly won't be the last....
