Close by is Penzance town centre with its variety of shops, galleries and places of interest. Nearby Newlyn - England's largest fishing port, is only a couple of miles along the promenade and pathway, with the picturesque fishing village of Mousehole a further few miles on. Further west along the Cornish Coastal Footpath is Lamorna Cove. This rocky wild cove is a favourite with artists and is perfect for walkers and bird watchers. Continuing westwards on the Coastal Path takes you to Porthcurno, with the famous Minack Theatre, and onwards to Lands End, mainland Britain's furthermost south-westerly point. By car Mousehole, Sennen Cove, Marazion, St Michael's Mount, Lands End, the Minack Theatre, the Lizard (designated an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty) and the Tate Gallery in St Ives, are all easily reached. The Eden project is just over one hour away. The Isles of Scilly can be visited by boat, plane or helicopter leaving from Penzance or Lands End. The surrounding area abounds with ancient sites such as Lanyon Quoit, Merry Maidens and Carn Euny Iron Age Village.
