About this property
This charming house rests in an elevated position with wonderful views over the rooftops to the harbour and across Mount's Bay to St Michael's Mount. Families will appreciate the homely interior, which comprises of a well-equipped kitchen and a dining room featuring seating for six people. In the evening, you can all relax and choose from the selection of games and books on offer, for a memorable night in. The sitting room is perfectly situated for some quality together time, with access to the decked patio area, with seating for 6 where you can sit and enjoy your breakfast in the sunshine while watching the fishing boats coming in as well as the beautiful view of the famous St. Michaels Mount. On those cooler nights, you can relax indoors on the leather sofas, perhaps with your favourite movie on play, enjoying the warmth from the coal-effect fire. For a peaceful nights sleep, three bedrooms equally promise a calm end to the day, all designed in a neutral fashion, with a soothing ambience throughout. The twin room features a fantastic outlook towards the coastline and harbour, and the modern bathroom follows suit. You can walk down the little lane beside the house and be in the heart of Newlyn in less than 5 minutes, with its supermarket (open until 11pm), bakers, coffee shops, pubs and restaurants. Places nearby include Porthcurno with its beautiful beach which is renowned for surfing and the famous Minnack open air theatre on the cliffs, Geevor mine, St Michaels Mount. Open top bus rides, which you can catch from the bottom of the hill which goes round the coast to Porthcurno, Lands End, Sennen and St Ives, and hop on and off all day meaning you don’t have to drive and park. A beautiful cottage for all the family to enjoy.
Newlyn in Cornwall is a fishing port whose buildings cluster around the harbour, and two quays full of boats. There are amenities in the village including a shop and a pub, and the beauty of Cornwall is evident all around this area. The coastal path runs nearby and walkers will enjoy spotting the flora and fauna on land, and perhaps even glimpsing basking sharks and grey seals in the waters. Head to the beaches for excellent surfing, or participate in the many watersports which are on offer in this holiday destination.

We enjoyed the views over Mounts Bay and watching the working harbour at night. Great space for our family to relax in. It was nice to have all the comforts of home at hand especially when preparing meals. For a winter break we felt cosy due to the excellent heating. The bathroom was well appointed, lovely to shower and have the beautiful views. The location was excellent for walks out to Mousehole, Penzance and the beach. The decking area was fantastic for morning tea and coffee, we were spoilt by the unseasonably warm February weather, my only concern was how slippery it is, possibly could do with a jet wash. The garden was perfect for our needs, again possibly the paths could do with a clean as they got slippery when wet. All in all we loved it and will definitely be back, thank you for sharing your house with us.

Itâs a lovely size house for our family of 4. Due to the sometimes rainy weather we spent a fair bit of time here and it was cosy and warm. The views were so amazing and I missed them when we returned home. The car park space in my opinion would struggle to fit 2 cars though.

Ideal. All required kitchen stuff and some and decent fridge and freezer space. Views of St Michael's Mount spectacular. Double bed not the comfiest. Needs some blackout curtains in the twin room. And serious cut back in the garden to make it a usable space. All said would defo recommend.
