Wellington Hotel, St Just

St Just, the most westerly town in mainland Britain, is a historic mining town and the Wellington is at the very centre, overlooking Market Square, close to the 16th century parish church. Situated on the scenic coastal road from Land's End to St Ives, the Wellington is an ideal base to visit the finest cliffs and beaches in Cornwall.

The food at the Wellington is renowned for its quality and excellence - local produce (photo) is used throughout. The bar food is excellent - prize winning ploughmans lunches. A full English breakfast is included with every booking. There is a children's menu which is frequently the choice of people with small appetites.

A hot and cold menu is available at lunchtime and evenings with local fresh crab and fish (seasonal), quality steaks, local Cornish pasties, country ham and daily home cooked specials. There's even fried egg and chips on the menu! The choice of good home cooked dishes is varied daily. Vegetarian diets are catered for - there's always a choice.

Parking is available in the Market Square (photo) outside, in quiet streets nearby or a large free car park which is within easy walking distance of the hotel. Bus services which link with all the Cornish tourist centres operate from close to the hotel and it is perfectly possible to enjoy a stay at St. Just without a car.
