West Cornwall is a land of steep cliffs, quiet sandy coves, historical sites and a wealth of tourist attractions.

The southwest coast path runs past the entrance to Noplace. Frome here you can walk miles, exploring the rugged coastline around Land's End, Sennen and St Just. There are reminders of past industry in the cliff edge mining ruins and relics of former inhabitants of the area in the prehistoric villages and monuments.

Not far away lies the spectacular Minack open air theatre, which features a cliff edge stage with the sea as the backdrop. Nearby is the Telegraph Museum at Porthcurno, and further along the coast are the quite cove at Lamorna, and the fishing harbour at Mousehole.

The nearest large town is Penzance, which offers a wide range of shops, restaurants and pubs and also the ferry and helicopter links to the Isles of Scilly, which on a clear day can be seen from Noplace, 25 miles to the west. A little further is St Michael's Mount (NT), perched on an island just off shore, reachable at low tide by causeway and by ferry at other times.

St Ives lies a little further away on the north coast. Here narrow streets lined with shops and a myriad of art galleries wind down to the sandy beaches and harbour. Overlooking the sea is the Tate St Ives which features modern and contemporary art.

Just a short distance from Sennen can be found the gardens at Trengwainton (NT) and Trewidden, which is famed for its collection of Camellias.
