Neighbourhood information

Situated in a very secluded and quiet location high above the fishing port of Newlyn, close to Penzance and famous Mousehole, a car is more or less essential to appreciate the surrounding area countryside and beaches, if coming by train car rental is available at the station. However many of our fitter guests appreciate our position and prefer to walk the coast road. Although not essential, a car is recommended. Alternativley come by helicopter as we have our own Helipad.
