About this property
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.

Parking
This property does not have its own parking
Due to the cottage’s position there is no direct road access. Guests will need to head pay and display car park (a two-ish minute walk away) and should have plenty of spaces for the duration of your visit. There is another (cheaper) car park called Sandy Cove, which is a 2 minute drive away in the direction of Mousehole (about a 5 minute walk). Alternatively, there is street parking around Newlyn but this, of course, cannot be guaranteed and is on a first come first served basis.
