Family-friendly vacation rentals in Newlyn

We stayed in the Melyn cottage, it was so lovely and spacious. The location is perfect for exploring different parts of Cornwall. Sue was a fantastic host and explained everything before we arrived, we were even greeted by a bottle of Prosecco which was a lovely surprise! We all loved it and would definitely stay again! :)

We have just had the best week at Bowjey Hill. Adam was very friendly and showed us around the property when we arrived and made lots of local recommendations which helped us plan for the week. We visited a lot of the recommendations and they did not disappoint. The property is beautiful and spacious and there was nothing more we could have asked for. The kitchen has all the cook books you can imagine, along with with all the equipment needed. So we had some evenings in the property cooking and playing games which were found in the cupboard. The house is decorated beautifully and feels like a home away from home. The garden is a great space for the family, unfortunately we didn’t use the pizza oven but the area in the garden was amazing. The beds were very comfortable. Adam brought coal for the bbq and said he’d bring any wood etc around if needed for the fire. Loved our stay and would recommend the host and property. Once parked up we just walked, got the bus or train. Very easy.

This was our second stay and, like the first, it didn't disappoint. The views, the Lodge itself and the hot tub all make for a perfect, peaceful weekend retreat. Caroline is a fantastic, friendly and responsive host who communicates quickly.

Very comfortable stay, had everything we needed and more. We loved the walk to Maenporth beach as did our dogs and easy to walk into Falmouth. Shame we did not have longer to try the facilities on site! Shelley great at communicating, checking we had everything we needed. 5 stars!!!

The house was amazing,ample space for 2 families getting together-never seen such a massive tv in our lives so watching a film was like being in a cinema! Kitchen fully equipped and lots of kitchen towels provided which we had forgotten to bring! Bathrooms and toilets were spotless and lots of loo roll provided too (a bug bear of mine when you only have 1 for your entire stay so have to make a mad dash to a shop as your first outing)! Location wise it was perfect,sea views,plenty of parking,short walk to the train station 3 mins away from st Ives,games provided (tho we are in to monopoly at the Mo and brought our own for some epic games nights)! Tesco a short drive away too which was handy if needed! All in all a fantastic stay-both hosts were super responsive too and should we have had any issues im sure would have been able to help quickly!

We had a lovely stay in one of the glamping tents over the Easter weekend. The accommodation is located very close to great beaches and is the perfect spot to visit explore Cornwall. Stephen and Amanda were great throughout our stay, providing effective communication and always being on hand to provide extra logs/coal for the fire. The tent had everything we needed for a short getaway and the hot tub was brilliant. Our kids, aged 6 and 3 loved it. We would definitely return again in the future.

We had the most amazing week in St Ives staying in this beautiful homely house. The view from the kitchen diner is absolutely stunning. The house is on a fairly busy road but the buses and traffic were not an issue - it was so easy to either get a bus, train or walk everywhere from the house. The 2 car parking spaces were brilliant (if a bit tight for a larger car) but we found we really didn’t need or want to use the cars. The location is fabulous for access to the town and beaches. The house is brilliantly stocked with everything you might want in a kitchen and was immaculately clean. Lovely towels and bedding with comfy beds. Amazing extras were really appreciated like the welcome food basket and spades/windbreaks in the garage. We also loved the hot tub. Can’t fault the house at all, we loved it!

We had a wonderful stay at Shaun’s cottage in Saint Newlyn East. The space was exactly as described — clean, cosy, and thoughtfully set up, with everything we needed for a comfortable stay as a small family. It was perfect for me, my wife, and our 5-month-old son. The location is peaceful and ideally situated for exploring the coast and nearby towns, yet still close enough to amenities when needed. Shaun was a responsive and helpful host, offering clear instructions and making us feel welcome from the start. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a quiet, charming base in Cornwall!

We had a wonderful Easter stay at Karen’s peaceful Falmouth Airbnb with our pets. The location is tranquil and welcoming—our cats settled in faster than ever, and our dog loved meeting the animals on the property. The facilities were spotless and matched the photos perfectly. We especially enjoyed the fresh farm eggs, including a seasonal goose egg treat. Karen was exceptionally responsive and proactive, providing detailed directions when Google Maps fell short. With wildlife views, a well-equipped kitchen, and grocery stores just a 10-minute drive away, this place truly felt like home. We can’t wait to return with our pets!

The bloke who showed us around the place also sorted out our bedding and gave us some butter, bacon and eggs for the morning. Martin really made us feel at home with the really cozy accommodation they had. He was very talkative and we had a very lovely chat about the trade he has learned over the years and how he remodelled the whole place himself. He was a very wholesome chap and I would love to spend the night there again.

Robyn was always very quick to respond and answer questions. The house is a typical old Cornish stone cottage, basic but clean and tidy. It is a minute walk to the harbour and all of the restaurants, cafes and pubs nearby. It is located in a traffic free and very quiet area and at the front of the house is a little sheltered sun trap with a table and two chairs, which was a very welcome respite from the near gale out on the beach.

My daughters and I, had a wonderful stay. Sharon and her family are really helpful and lovely, The cottage is beautiful, had everything we needed and the location was perfect.

We had a wonderful few days staying at April cottage with our in-laws and children. The cottage was just lovely, the beds comfy, the rooms very spacious and in a lovely location oh and the softest fluffy towels ever! Perfect for a nice warm shower at the end of the day to relax! Very close to the train station for a quick trip down to carbis bay beach and then into st Ives. Also close for a quick drive to Penzance. Our children had a great stay too, they loved the cottage and had a great time with everything really close. Would absolutely recommend April Cottage! Thank you!

Sarah was great, answered any questions quickly and was really helpful Property was stunning, very clean and comfortable and lots of handy supplies in the fridge and cupboards Such a lovely peaceful location accessible to all parts of Cornwall Sarah allowed me to use the EV charging which was very convenient Will def come back if she will have us

Mike you’re awesome, property is great with a wonderful view. Mike keeps it super clean and has provided what you could need to have a great stay. The beach view and waking up to the sound of the waves is priceless. Total gem

We had a fantastic stay at Emilys. The cottage felt like a cosy home from home. It was really close to Falmouth, yet deep in beautiful countryside, quiet and peaceful. We were also really close to the beautiful Gweek and Helford Eastury where we spent quite a bit of time, really convenient. Everything was on hand for our stay including a well equipped kitchen. Special points awarded for the super comfy bed and Emily's amazing communication ensuring we were well looked after.

A fantastic place to stay beautiful property, spotlessly clean and brilliant amenities. Everyone was super friendly and helpful with any queries. Location is perfect for the beautiful beach and village. Our family had the most amazing holiday and highly recommend a stay at Bassets Acre.

Home from home shower is really powerful and plenty of hot water for us all. Host is very helpful on texts with all the info place is clean and beds are comfortable 10mins drive to main beach Perranporth which has lots of shops restaurants cafes and bars will definitely return

Stunning apartment, spacious and modern . Very clean. Welcome pack provided and toiletries. Beautiful views across the bay. 5 min walk down to the sea. 10 mins back ( uphill ! ) Lovely balcony to have a glass of wine. Peaceful location. Would thoroughly recommend.

We had a wonderful time at Liz & Dave’s place. The apartment is clean & spacious, the views are spectacular, comfortable bedding, lovely layout for a family. We made great use of the spa facilities & board games when the weather was wet. Location excellent. Would highly recommend & would love to stay again!

A lovely location for me and my family. Bar and restaurant up the road had friendly staff and good food. The house came with tennis equipment we could borrow for the courts, a very informative welcome book with lots of recommendations on things to do. Very clean, very good price and very welcoming. Didn’t require any help from Michele but I felt that i could go to her if any problems did arise. Received welcoming messages and reassurance on check in day from Michele. Can’t fault it in anyway :)

We had a lovely time at Bluebell Cottage, very comfortable home in a beautiful area. Perfect location for exploring Falmouth and the surrounds. Highly recommended.

We had a wonderful stay over Christmas at John and Karen’s house! The house was very spacious, with two large bedrooms and a large living / dining space plus kitchen which had absolutely everything you could need for cooking. And the outdoor areas were lovely, green and relaxing. I cannot recommend this place more. They also give very good directions, so even though the house doesn’t have a number we were able to find it in the dark when we arrived. You’re less than 10 minutes driving from supermarkets like Lidl, Tesco and Sainsbury’s. And to shop local we went to the lovely stores in Newlyn, a town 5min away. Mousehole overall is a lovely little village and we loved the restaurants the owners recommend. It’s also quite easy to get around by car to visit the area. All in all a wonderful stay, would 100% come back if we’re ever in Cornwall again. Thank you for a lovely and memorable holiday!

Great place and Justine is very responsive if you do stay make sure to try out Salt Restaurant in Hayle not too far to walk
