Home description
Bursting with olde worlde charm and character, this quirky and enchanting little property was converted from two fisherman cottages in the early 1900’s and it still has two winding staircases at either end of the cottage that lead to the two individual bedrooms!
Ocean Cottage has recently been renovated to cater for today’s busy and demanding clientele yet the owners have been careful to ensure that it remains exactly as it should - a wonderful and unique little fisherman’s cottage with plenty of history, beamed ceilings, leaded light windows, nooks and crannies - all just waiting to be discovered! Immediately behind the property lies a maze of narrow little lanes and alleyways – some only wide enough for a cart – that hide a fascinating collection of quaint pubs, galleries, fisherman’s cottages and ancient sail and net lofts.
The bustling commercial fishing port of Newlyn continues to thrive and is home to an array of vessels ranging from huge ocean going beam trawlers right down to little mackerel boats that ply up and down Mounts Bay on a daily basis. Ocean Cottage is a lovely holiday home which is suited to either couples seeking a little more “me time” or young families that wish to explore the area.

The West Country / Cornwall region
The West Cornwall area is a premier holiday destination and offers something for everyone. Take your time to relax and bask in the sunshine, enjoying many of the golden beaches that adorn the West Cornwall coastline or take a relaxing walk through the lush moorland or a more energetic hike through the clifftops which will give you access to amazing scenery and you may be lucky enough to catch a glimpse of dolphins playing in the Ocean.
Picturesque villages dot this area and there is always something happening in the summer months that range from local festivals to outdoor activities. There is an abundance of culture, heritage and spirit in this area. Sample the wonderful Cornish cuisine in one of the many traditional English pubs or watch the sun set whilst enjoying cream tea and cakes in one of the many cafes. This area is also a must for shoppers with its mix of big name retail outlets and smaller eclectic shops.
Whether you are looking for an action packed holiday or somewhere to get away from it all, West Cornwall is an ideal destination for any type of holidaymaker.
Penzance / Newlyn area
Newlyn is a lively fishing port, stuffed with cosy fishermen's cottages, twisty streets and alleys on the western edge of Mounts Bay. St Michael's Mount itself is visible (legend has it, the island was a side effect of two giants throwing huge lumps of rock at each other) across the bay.
Cornwall's attraction are all nearby by road, or for the more adventurous the Isle of Scilly are a helicopter ride from Penzance heliport. There's a strong artist tradition in the area and many galleries and museums are available. The Tate Gallery over at St Ives is definitely worth a visit.
