A lovely little cottage in a lovely little spot.

The cottage was a charming little space, beautifully decorated and cozy, located a pleasant thirty-minute walk along the coastal path away from Penzance proper. It was a wonderful haven to return to after a day's tromping around the beaches and ports of Penzance and St. Ives, a delightful little home-away-from home. I'd happily stay here again.

Beautiful Cornwall

Loved all the art! The kitchen was just like being at home. Lovely sunroom and courtyard area. The bed was super comfy and the claw foot bath/shower was novel. The cottage is in a great position for seafood restaurants and walks along the coast.

Lovely quirky cottage

The cottage is well located, lovely and quiet (despite being close to the main road through Newlyn). It is very spacious for two people and has all the facilities and equipment you could need. Lots of useful information supplied by the host ahead of check-in. Would definitely recommend.

What a find

Herbert Cottage is right in the middle of everything Newlyn, an active yet picturesque fishing village with great restaurants & cafe has to offer. Just a short stroll to Penzance &short car rides to all the lhighlights it’s really well situated. Although centrally located it’s peaceful & quiet with everything you could want. Lenn was a great host

Newlyn cottage in June

Nice location between Penzance and Mousehole. Very clean and had everything needed for all kitchen cooking. Sweet patio off sunroom. Many good restaurants near by, and good starting point for walks. Be awarer of steps up to bedroom and bath. We're in our late 60s and did fine but some folks might have trouble. We'd stay here again!

Home away from home with a special something!

Unigue property with an ideal location for anyone looking to sample life in coastal Cornwall. The cottage has it all : an owner with intimate knowledge of Newlyn and Penzance, a delightful space with no touch missing- from wickedly entertaining artwork to cozy charm, situated right beside the exceptional Cornish bus system and excellent local shops supplying fresh produce and the freshest, tastiest fish available, great eating places on the doorstep, and a kitchen wanting for naught! I stayed a month and wish it had been longer. Restful, restorative, a perfect get- away that is private but close to all.

We loved staying in this beautiful cottage in Newlyn. Lenn our host provided us with a wealth of really helpful information about checking in and places to eat and visit. The cottage was full of beautiful art work and a lovely garden to sit in. It was so relaxing staying here, with everything we needed and more. The cottage was situated in the heart of Newlyn so it was easy to catch local buses and walk to a number of wonderful pubs and restaurants. We especially liked being able to buy wonderful seafood from the local fish shops and walking along the coast. At the end of our holiday, we really did not want to leave and will certainly return to this charming cottage.

This charming fisherman’s cottage was everything we wanted and more. The place is so very unique and decorated in a way that I just adored!! I so enjoyed all the beautiful decor and the garden! It is cozy and inviting and we felt so comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed and we found it easy to use- same with the laundry. The location is ideal!!!! Very close to the bus stop and any food we needed- just between the fabulous ice cream shop and equally fabulous seafood restaurant. My husband and I would stay here again!! The large soaking bathtub was a treat and the shower was high enough to accommodate my tall husband- win win!! Thank you for sharing this place with us!! We found it very relaxing and enjoyed our stay so very much!

Perfect cottage and location for two people.

Herbert Cottage is a truly beautiful home. It is full of paintings and other objets d’art produced mainly by local artists and are a delight to view. It is very well equipped and very comfortable to live in. Parking wasn’t a problem. Newlyn is a great place to stay and has so much to offer. There is excellent seafood available at the Tolcarne Inn and Mackerel Sky and also lovely cheese, fruit and vegetables from the local shops. It’s a great location for visiting beautiful beaches, coast paths and it’s not far to walk to both Mousehole and Penzance. Lenn is a very friendly guy and will give you plenty of advice and recommendations to ensure you have a great time. We hope to book the cottage again at some time in in the future.

Die Fischerhütte liegt mitten in Newlyn, es gibt viele tolle Lokale in der Umgebung. Die Unterkunft war sauber und groß, wir haben uns wohlgefühlt. Newlyn ist eine super Basis, um Cornwall zu erkunden. Wir haben uns beim ersten Mal etwas schwergetan, den Parkplatz zu finden, aber wenn man „Newlyn fisherman“ in sein Navi eingibt, landet man direkt am Parkplatz. Wir können die Unterkunft empfehlen.

Sehr besonderes Cottage in zentraler Lage, mit hervorragender Ausstattung und geschmackvollen, originellen Accessoires, wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Sympathischer Kontakt zum großzügigen Gastgeber, wir konnten vorhandene Lebensmittel genießen, incl. Weinsortiment unter der Treppe. Viele gute Tips von ihm!!! Einziges kleines Manko war der Frittiergeruch vom (guten) Fischrestaurant direkt vor der Tür...man konnte nur früh morgens und spät Abends richtig lüften. Da wir tagsüber meist auf dem nahen South West Coast Path unterwegs waren fiel das aber nicht schwer ins Gewicht! Danke an Lenn für die schöne Zeit!!

Sehr schönes Häuschen

Es hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Das Haus ist gemütlich und hat einen schönen kleinen Innenhof. Das einzige Manko ist, dass es im Badezimmer praktisch keine Ablage gibt. Die Lage ist sehr günstig, auch wenn man ohne Auto unterwegs ist. Wir haben auch viele gute Tipps für Unternehmungen und Restaurants bekommen, was sehr hilfreich war. Insgesamt war der Aufenthalt in der Fischerhütte sehr schön.

Charming cottage in Newlyn

This is a very cute cottage. It is very well equipped especially in the kitchen. The hosts are very helpful. Many restos nearby. The front door is up a small alley and you have to unload on a busy street. This can be done quite easily and then you park around the corner 5 mins away. The only caution I have is that if you have difficulty walking the stairs could be challenging.
