Self-catering holidays and Holiday cottages in Lamorna

Local info

Lamorna is a beautiful wooded valley running down to a small granite cove, a few miles south of Mousehole. It attracted many artists of the Newlyn School in the early 1900s and remains a peaceful spot, with holiday cottages tucked into the valley and along the coast.

The Merry Maidens stone circle stands just above the valley, and the coast path leads to Mousehole and on towards Porthcurno and the Minack Theatre. Penzance and Newlyn are a short drive away. Book your Lamorna holiday direct with the owner.
