Excellent break, lovely property, stunning view!
The owners were the icing on the cake with our break in Cornwall! So helpful and pleasant to chat to and full of extremely useful tips and info.
The house has one of the best views in Cornwall, surely. Newlyn is quieter than many other towns and is still very much a fishing village, which suited us perfectly as we were unsure about going away during the pandemic and appreciated the quieter atmosphere.
The house was perfect for our family of 4, plus my sister in law. The kitchen is extremely well-equipped and the pizza oven in the garden was great fun, the kids (and us!) absolutely loved making pizzas and had great success! The garden is beautiful to sit in: big comfy sofa and large table to dine at.
We walked into Mousehole several times which was easy (the house is up a hugely steep hill though so some fitness required!) and we popped down to Newlyn frequently for beautiful ice cream from Jelberts, a sit on the sea front, or dinner at the very excellent Tolcarne Inn.
We drove to St Ives a few times to eat and swim (with seals, as it turned out!), did lots of walks around the coast (Gurnards Head especially memorable) and we popped into the Tremeneere Gardens, all of which were great.
We would definitely book the house again; we came away feeling relaxed and like we’d had a true holiday. Thank you, Natasha and Adam, for sharing your home.
