How to find us
Early nineteenth century visitors would travel to the First & Last Inn before embarking on the final stage of their journey to Penn-an-Wlas (Land’s End in Cornish) on horseback or foot along the narrow lanes.
Fortunately, nowadays there are many more modes of transport to reach the westernmost point of Cornwall.
By car
Drive along the M4 motorway from London or the M6 motorway from Manchester, joining the M5 motorway towards Exeter then the A30 into Cornwall.
Alternatively, if you’re travelling from or via North Devon, you can opt to join the A39 from junction 27 on the M5 and travel down the north coast to join the A30 at Indian Queens.
If you’re travelling from or via South Devon, take the A38 through Plymouth and Liskeard and join the A30 at Carminnow Cross.
Once on the A30, which is mostly dual carriageway, travel westbound towards Redruth, Camborne and Hayle until you reach Penzance. In Penzance, look for signs marked Land’s End and follow the A30 for 9 miles until you reach the village of Sennen. In Sennen, travel through the village, past the road to Sennen Cove and beyond the First & Last Inn. You’ll find Land’s End at the very end of the A30 road.
By train
High-speed train services run frequently from London Paddington station, including the Night Riviera Sleeper Service to Penzance.
The main station in Penzance is 9 miles from Land’s End so to complete your journey, you’ll need to arrange separate transport via taxi, bus or hire car.
By plane

Newquay Airport is 51miles from Land’s End, so you will need to arrange for separate transport to complete your journey – taxi, bus or hire car.
Car hire is available at Newquay Cornwall Airport through Europcar, Hertz and Cornwall Classic Car Hire who’ll meet you at the terminal.
