About this property

Cosy & elegant cottage in charming Newlyn

Charming, cosy and unique cottage a stones throw from the sea in charming Newlyn - one of the last fully operational fishing harbours in the UK.
Treat yourself and stay at this 100 year old cottage newly and entirely renovated to a very high spec - including dedicated parking.
The cottage has a wonderful history where crab baskets were woven in support of the famous Newlyn crab and fishing industry.
It is located a few meters from the fishing harbour and Newlyn's famous seaside coastal walk.

Amazing!!!
Amazing place! The house is very clean and tastefully decorated. The location is perfect- remote and peaceful, yet lots of lovely little grocery shops, coffee shops, ice cream parlours, take away places and restaurants within walking distance. 15-20 minutes drive to Land's End or Minack Theatre. Great base for exploring Cornwall.

Wonderful spot outside of Penzance!
We had such a wonderful experience at this Harborside cottage. It was clean, had enough room, was a stones throw away from the Harborside boardwalk, and had a lovely coffee house nearby right through the art gallery (Fika). Gord was accessible for questions, and was very helpful. If you get a chance, talk to Pippa and Sophie and get recommendations from them. They directed us to a lovely spot on Sonnen beach. We had everything we needed, and was very comfortable and quiet. I couldn’t recommend any higher.

We loved our stay here!
Our 5 nights here were more enjoyable than we had imagined. Right from the first communication with Gord we were impressed with the service he offers. The cottage is newly refurbished, well appointed and also well set up to enable us to work for 4 days. We also loved the fresh seafood and nice cafes in Newlyn. We didn't want to leave.

What a gem of a place
Gord’s place was amazing! Honestly we didn’t want to leave 😀 it was very clean, beautifully decorated with lots of great touches made it soo cosy! The cottage was a great base to explore Newlyn, Mousehole and Penzance. Gord was a fantastic host always reactive to messages. I will miss my morning cuppa overlooking the sea. We will definitely be back, thanks again for such a comfortable stay.

Cute place near the water
This cottage was great for our 2 night stay in Newlyn. We could walk to restaurants and shops, leaving the car in the available parking space. The owner was super helpful with ideas of where to shop, eat and explore in Newlyn and surrounding areas.

Perfectly placed to walk into Penzance. We also drove to lots of local and beautiful places all within half an hour. Great to sit and look out over the harbour too. Gord was very responsive and super helpful.

Such a beautiful cottage and location
Such a beautifully finished cottage, very well appointed and in a cute location. The town it's in is great, try Eddie's for fish and chips and you must take Cliff Road into Mousehole. Gord was a fantastic, helpful and attentive host. Tight to get a car into the parking spot but all else was wonderful.

The Basket Loft ist absolut top. Alles ist neu, gepflegt und sauber. Die Lage in Newlyn mit Parkplatz ist Gold wert. Küche, Fernseher, Betten, Dusche,... alles top. Toll und geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Auch die Kinder haben sich sehr wohl gefühlt. Gord hat super Tipps und die Kommunikation verlief super und freundlich.

Awesome spot!
The Basket loft is an ideal spot for checking out the area. Walkable to penzance, mousehole and the St Michael’s mount start but without the traffic and busyness of Penzance. Gord gave us fantastic dinner recommendations and we loved them all. The home is completely stocked with spices, press coffee maker and all the items needed to make meals. The little deck area is a lovely spot for cocktail hour. And Gord was super easy to work with! You will be glad you stayed here

Lovely spot in Newlyn
Great location- walkable to charming shops in Newlyn and a nice walk to Mousehole. Gord was readily available when we had a question about the door lock and was friendly and helpful. The apartment was immaculate and beautifully decorated- cosy and welcoming. We loved our visit and will recommend it to friends traveling to Cornwall.
