St Levan sits on the far-west tip of the Penwith peninsula in Cornwall, just a few miles from Land's End. The parish is defined by rugged granite cliffs, heaths and a string of secluded coves such as Porthcurno and Penberth, with the South West Coast Path running through and much of the coastline lying within Cornwall’s Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
It remains a small, close-knit rural community where mixed farming, a handful of traditional fishing families and tourism sustain the local economy; visitors are drawn by dramatic sea views and the famous open‑air Minack Theatre. Historic layers of maritime and mining heritage sit alongside a lively artistic scene and village life centred on the parish church and community events.
