About Lookout Cottage:
Lookout Cottage is situated in quiet traffic-free terrace
(pedestrian access only) on the edge of Newlyn overlooking the
approaches to Newlyn harbour. The property, which is built out
of local granite, is about 100 years old but
fully modernized with gas central heating, double glazing and
free wi-fi (wired broadband connection available). The property
has spectacular sea views over
Mounts Bay to St Michaels Mount and the Lizard Peninsula.
Newlyn is a convenient base for holidaying in West Cornwall. It
has all the practical amenities a holidaymaker needs plus the
interest value of a working harbour and numerous small art galleries
that maintain the village’s artistic
tradition. Penzance, 2 miles
away, provides a wider range of shops and entertainments. Down
the coast road in the opposite direction is the picturesque
fishing village of Mousehole. A short car journey from Newlyn provides
access to a number of stunning coves and beaches including
Sennen Cove, Lamorna and Porthcurno. St Ives is approximately 30
minutes drive away. The Eden
Project is approximately 1 hours drive away. There is a
pebble covered beach approximately 200 metres front the
property.
The accommodation is comfortable all year around with double
glazing and full gas central heating.
