A series of splendidly named valleys facing westwards between Land's End and St Ives. Renowned for birds in the autumn, especially rare ones. A number of first sightings for Britain have been found in them.

Great views at the seaward ends of the valleys where you can link onto the Cornish coast path. For softies, Cot Valley is the easiest access with a smallish car park at the end of the valley.

Views of the rocks called the Brisons off shore and Scilly on a clear day. Be prepared to back up a way when driving though!

Also worth a look: Nanquidno next to Land's End aerodrome just south of St Just off the B3306, Kenidjack just north of St just and Pendeen lighthouse.

The church at St. Just is one of the most lovely I've visited and I've visited a lot of little churches.

St. Just in Penwith (not to be confused with St. Just in Roseland which is apparently also nice)
