Newlyn is a historical fishing village, small in stature but with the authenticity and character to make a lasting impression. Dating back to the 11th century, over the years it has been not only a busy fishing harbour but an inspiration for artists and writers alike, and today you'll find a fabulous selection of specialist fish restaurants, wine bars and even an independent cinema. A great base for exploring the far west of Cornwall, you're also ideally positioned to walk to neighbouring Penzance and the picturesque village of Mousehole.
