About this property
Beautiful sea views can be admired from this spacious house which provides excellent accommodation in the heart of the quaint fishing port of Newlyn, Cornwall. With its pretty harbour and village amenities, this house is ideal for a family holiday. Wake to the lovely seascape views from two of the upstairs bedrooms with the master benefiting from an en-suite shower room. Step into the split-level open plan living and dining area and you will find comfort and charm with a feature stone wall and wood burning stove to warm you on those winter breaks. Here you can open the French windows onto the enclosed patio, perfect for al fresco dining. The drawing room is ideal for escaping to with a good book which also doubles up as an extra bedroom and you will find everything you require to rustle up your favourite meals in the attractively fitted kitchen. Newlyn is filled with quaint streets and cobbled courtyards with plenty of traditional inns and restaurants where you can sample local produce. A visit to the neighbouring town of Penzance will provide plenty of activities or take a drive to Marazion for a stretch of golden beach. St Michaels Mount with its 12th Century fortress is within easy driving distance where you have the chance to walk across the causeway at low tide or hop on a ferry. A fabulous house, in a beautiful location, ensuring a wonderful holiday.
Nestled next to Penzance, and although still a quaint village in its own right, Newlyn is actually the third largest fishing port in England, and an important Port of Refuge for all sea baring craft. It is unusual in that visitors can still watch the landing and auctioning of fish at the market, as many families have for centuries before. T

Views from balcony fabulous. Beds and bedding clean and comfortable. Situated close to Mousehole and Penzance. Used the allocated parking space in the car park down the steep hill less than a minute walk . Only negatives -unpleasant damp odours in second sitting room and slightly in the kitchen cupboards. Also, sometimes had trouble unlocking and opening the front door. However , we will definitely be looking to return in the near future.

The cottage is perfect. Very spacious and comfortable. The location is absolutely perfect and parking is no problem if you can't find a space. The carpark can be seen from the front door and is literally a 30 second walk with a reserved parking space. We will be back again for sure!!
