Overview

Recently refurbished yet still packed with character, Crabpot Cottage is the epitome of a traditional Newlyn cottage with deep window reveals and exposed granite adding to its charm.

Set within a short stroll of the town’s seafront, galleries, shops and harbour, it’s a lovely place for you to base yourself as you explore the local area, its beaches, coast path walks and landmarks. Though small, you’ll have everything you need to be comfortable including a pretty kitchen / diner, two bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a cosy lounge with its wood-burning stove for the cooler months.

Recently touted as one of Cornwall’s trendiest up and coming coastal towns, Newlyn’s food and shopping scene doesn’t disappoint. Restaurants like Mackerel and Sky Seafood Bar (though seasonal) and Tolcarne Inn are well worth popping into for delicious dishes made from fresh, locally sourced ingredients, and if you love shopping indie, there are places like The Cornish Delicatessen, The Strand Vintage Store and the Helen Feiler Gallery for art and jewellery. Nearby lie the towns of Penzance with its fabulous lido, Mousehole and Marazion, all within easy reach by car. For a lovely way to see the coastline, hop aboard The Lands End Coaster bus service between Penzance and Lands End, which has stops at St Ives, Sennen and Marazion to name a few.

Newlyn cottage
3.7/5

Cottage was spotless clean and had everything we needed. The nature of the build means you get no sun and it smelt damp in the living room. A shower or somewhere to put shampoo etc would he been most helpful. Very well equipped and comfortable. The winter with a fire going would have solved the smell I guess.

Hi Lynn, Thank you for reviewing your recent stay. Were thrilled to hear that you found Crabpot Cottage to be spotless and well equipped. We appreciate your comments about the direct sunlight and the smell in the living room. As a charming Fishermans Cottage, Crabpot Cottage has many unique characteristics that make it special. We are actively looking into ways to improve ventilation to ensure the property remains fresh and inviting. Additionally, the owner has now added a bathroom cabinet, providing a convenient spot for guests to store their toiletries. Were delighted that you found the cottage comfortable and we truly hope to welcome you back for another stay soon! Best wishes, The Luxury Coastal team
