LOCATION

Located in a quiet location just a stroll from Penzance’s high street or the popular Chapel Street, this property is situated perfectly for exploring the best the town has to offer. Be right in the heart of it all but tucked away enough to enjoy a relaxing stay. The best local attractions, shops, galleries, bars, pubs and restaurants are all within walking distance. You can be in the oldest pub in Penzance, The Turks Head, dating from 1233, in a matter of minutes. Or walk along the seafront to the famous Jubilee Pool, the UK’s largest art deco seawater lido.

Penzance is the gateway to the Land’s End peninsula and in the Far West of Cornwall nothing is far away. The fishing harbour of Newlyn is 20 minutes’ walk along the seafront promenade, and the quaint village of Mousehole is only a 10 minutes’ drive away. Marazion, with the famous St. Michael’s Mount, is easy to walk or drive to and St. Ives is a short trip using the scenic rail line from Penzance station. Sennen Cove, The Minack Theatre in Porthcurno, and The Cornish Mining World Heritage Site on the north coast, are all an easy drive away. Many of the film locations from Winston Graham’s Poldark books are in the area and part of the German TV Rosamunde Pilcher series was filmed right outside the door in Chapel Street.

Open-plan to the kitchen/dining area, the light living area is a comfortable space filled with selected pieces reflecting the owner Meg’s  family’s history after a long residence in the far east .

WHAT GUESTS ARE SAYING...

“Great apartment with very spacious layout. Stayed for 10 days as was working in the town centre which was only a 2-minute walk away. Everywhere was clean and tidy on arrival. Couldn't have asked for a better location! The Cornish fairings on table were appreciated. Thanks again for a great place to stay!”

Joe – March 2024 

“Really convenient location for step off to the Scilly Isles (terminals just down the road) and for exploring this part of Cornwall. Flat was clean, well equipped and spacious. Good wifi and TV set up. Clear instructions and file with local restaurants etc. Thoughtful touches like milk in the fridge and tea and coffee provided. Gated complex so good security in the flats and for the car. Nice to have a little outside balcony. We enjoyed staying there”

Joanna – October 2023

“Such a beautiful space. Really comfortable and private yet close to amenities. I’ve visited Penzance many times on my way to Sennen and Treen but have never stayed there. The location was perfect just short walk round the corner from Jubilee Pool as well as Morrab Gardens both well worth a visit. The co-op on Jew Street and the little independent shops on the neighbouring streets were really accessible. Even though the town was quite busy the location is just off the beaten track. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay!”

Nkechi – September 2023 

“A perfect holiday from both location and accommodation, could not fault it any way.”

Susan – September 2023 

"My partner and I had a great couple of days at Penzance and was very pleased with our accommodation. The apartment was pristine and the facilities were easily accessible. Definitely recommend to book if you are visiting Penzance. The apartment is in a great location, close to the beach, the city centre as well as transport links. Thank you for a great couple of days."
