Coastal Holiday Cottages and Sea Views in Penzance

Penzance has a working harbour, a long seafront promenade and plenty of shops, cafés and restaurants. Its beach cottages and coastal holiday homes include traditional townhouses, waterfront apartments and properties overlooking Mount’s Bay. The town is also well placed for exploring West Cornwall, with sandy beaches, fishing villages and some of the region’s best-known attractions nearby.

 

Penzance Harbour, Promenade and Nearby Beaches

Penzance’s Victorian promenade runs along the seafront towards Newlyn, with views across Mount’s Bay. The shore below is mainly sand, shingle and rocks, with more sand exposed at low tide. For a wider sandy beach, Long Rock lies east of the town towards Marazion.

Near the harbour, Jubilee Pool is a 1930s Art Deco seawater lido with an additional geothermally heated pool. The harbour is also the departure point for passenger ferries to the Isles of Scilly.

Further along the bay, Marazion has a sandy beach overlooking St Michael’s Mount. Explore our collection of holiday cottages in Marazion if you’d prefer accommodation closer to the beach.

 

Historic Penzance, Mousehole and Local Attractions

Chapel Street is one of Penzance’s best-known streets, with historic buildings, independent shops and pubs. Penlee House Gallery & Museum has collections of local art, including paintings by members of the Newlyn School.

A few miles west, Mousehole is a traditional fishing village with a sheltered harbour, narrow streets and small sandy beaches at low tide. Browse our selection of Mousehole coastal cottages for accommodation near the village’s waterfront.

Other nearby attractions include Morrab Gardens, Newlyn’s fishing harbour and St Michael’s Mount. For more destinations across the county, explore our wider collection of coastal holiday homes in Cornwall.
