A beautifully-proportioned, Georgian house located in Regent Square just off the historic Chapel Street in central Penzance. A Grade 2 listed property with many period features, spacious rooms and an enclosed pretty, rear garden - the perfect base for exploring the far west of Cornwall. Penzance has a variety of independent shops, bars and restaurants serving good food made with local produce and pubs serving a variety of real ales. The Blue House is within an easy stroll of the promenade and the famous Jubilee Pool on the seafront - a fabulous place for a safe outdoor swim. For those of you who like to travel by train, then the night sleeper from Paddington to Penzance is a great option with the house being a short walk away from the station.

There is a flourishing arts scene in the area with live music, folk clubs and local festivals held throughout the year. Fishing trips can be booked from Penzance harbour, and why not book a day visit on the Scillonian to the Isles of Scilly and see their outstanding, unspoilt beauty. St Ives and Land’s End are close by and there are many highly-renowned beaches are a short drive away including the famous Sennen Cove. The long, curved, sandy beach and small harbour combines working fishing port with laid-back surfing atmosphere. Wherrytown Beach is a large stretch of pebbles between Penzance and Newlyn and is dog-friendly all year round so a lovely place for a stroll at lower tide.

Great location, comfortable accommodation. Would recommend. We did NOT have a car, and I think parking is a problem.

Beautiful house in a great location. Plenty of space. The downside was parking - garage is small and cars were parked in front of it. On street parking unpredictable, mostly unavailable. We ended up buying a weekly pass for the Harbour Car Park for 26. Great walled garden with security gate, so pets could wander in and out of the house safely. ComfRead moreortable beds and sofas. Lovely piano/reading room with many interesting books. Many dog friendly eating places nearby. Hide

Excellent location, and having a garden and parking space in downtown Penzance was amazing. We felt the property was a little tired and needed a good deep clean. It was comfortable and roomy.

Very comfy, very well stocked kitchen and scones on arrival very welcome. Two negatives were the garage doors were very difficult to lock and keep open as they kept blowing closed while backing the car in, - we ended up parking outside it. And perhaps the gardener was on holiday? As back area was overgrown and covered in windfall apples.
