If you are a bit of a dab hand in the kitchen, you will love the freedom our luxury self-catering cottages in Newlyn bring to your daily routine. Stroll down to one of the local fishmongers where you can purchase the day’s freshest catch to take home with you; full of expert knowledge, the staff will offer you top advice as to how best to prepare and serve your fish. Celebrating all things seafood, you should also pencil the Newlyn Fish Festival into your diary: one of the biggest celebrations of the sea, seafood and fishing in the UK.
For a night of wining and dining you don’t have to think about, head to one of the area’s prestigious restaurants. The Mackerel Sky Bar is a hugely popular seafood bar serving fresh fish and shellfish caught from Newlyn’s own waters. Another lovely option is the Smugglers a sea-view restaurant dating back to the 1700’s, as is the Tolcarne Inn. Managed by food hero Ben Tunnicliffe, the Toclarne is a historic maritime pub with a chalkboard-style menu that reads like an ode to the sea – the perfect way to round off your day in this nautical haven.
