Ms Lendon June 2024
We love this apartment. This was, I think, our sixth visit, which says it all. It is very comfortable and warm with Dyson coolers for hot weather. New sofas make it even better and the beds are blissful. Plenty of good quality equipment if you fancy cooking. Even though we were here during Storms Kathleen and Pierrick, we never tired of looking out at harbour activity, the astonishing feats of seagulls or reading when it was raining stair rods and blowing a gale. We'd particularly recommend a visit to Cape Cornwall when the weather's lively. A pasty from Philps in Marazion eaten a few yards away looking over to the Mount is a good respite.
Mrs Forrest March 2024
Sitting in the corner of a sheltered and attractive bay, the UK’s most westerly town has been a popular resort since the Napoleonic wars when the wealthier English people were cut off from the continent and searched closer to home for fresh air and the newly discovered benefits of sea-bathing. The temperature in Penzance is always a little warmer than elsewhere meaning sub-tropical plants grow well in Morrab Gardens and in the gardens on St. Michael’s Mount. It also means balmy days on one of the nearby beaches are always calling.
Penzance is great for short breaks out of season and there are many boating trips from the harbour that will take you to explore the West Coast from the sea. Due to its excellent road and rail links, Penzance holidays offer something for everyone with lots to see and do. It’s also within a stone’s throw of some of the prettiest places to visit in Cornwall, which are always worth exploring during your stay.
Penzance has secret treats too if you take the time to explore. For a start, the very best way to see Penzance is by the alleys and walkways, the through-lanes from here to there. Take a day to discover the town this way and you will uncover its beautiful parks as well as its Regency and Georgian architecture.
Penzance also benefits from a wonderful community and comes alive throughout the year with different events and traditions that add waves of colour and music to the seaside town.
Penzance has one of the mildest climates in the UK!
From coastal walks to castles, and swimming pools to sandy beaches, these days out around Penzance are the ultimate way to enjoy your stay in West Cornwall.
With Mount’s Bay providing a beautiful alcove of beaches and the surrounding Penwith coast showing off exactly what west Cornwall has to offer, beach days in Penzance are always on the agenda.
Longrock Beach – Nestled halfway between Marazion and Penzance, this long stretch of sand is great for families. The water remains quite shallow, making it ideal for those who aren’t confident swimmers as well as windsurfers.
Marazion Beach – There are few views from the beach as impressive as Marazion where your beach day benefits from the impressive St Michael’s Mount standing guard over the bay. Stroll across the causeway at low tide, explore the rockpools or tuck into a fish and chips on the rocks.
Perranuthnoe Beach – With a beach café that serves delicious homemade cakes and ice creams, and a ramp for easy access, Peranuthnoe is popular with locals and visitors alike. The expanse of sand, which is second to none for sandcastles, means there’s plenty of room for everyone.
Stay in a self catering cottage in Penzance and you’re perfectly situated to explore the surrounding towns and villages, each with their own individual characters and charm. Literally minutes from Penzance is the fishing port of Newlyn while a little further on you’ll find the quaint village of Mousehole with its harbourside bistro, community atmosphere and famous Christmas lights. Take a stroll along the coast to Marazion beach or venture in the opposite direction to the beautiful Lamorna Cove. For more ideas, check out our blog post on days out around Penzance.
Jubilee Pool
This beautiful art-deco open-air bathing pool is the UK’s largest seawater lido. There is also an excellent café and a delightfully warm geothermal pool. The pool opens from the end of May until September. Even in winter, some hardy year-round swimmers use battery rocks (just north of Jubilee Pool) for their daily dip!
Parks and gardens
Morrab Garden is a sub-tropical garden in the heart of Penzance with Victorian fountains and a bandstand, which still plays host to concerts in the summer. The Morrab Library sits in the gardens and is an absolute joy with its wonderful photographic archives and collections. Full of trees and squirrels, Penlee Park has a specific dog-free and child-friendly play area making it ideal for families.
Art galleries
Penlee House Art Gallery & Museum (with an excellent café) sits opposite the Penlee open-air theatre and is home to a large collection of Newlyn School paintings as well as more contemporary works. Along the various streets and alleys lie many other superb galleries featuring a mix of local and national artists. Further afield, you have the renowned Newlyn Exchange and the wondrous Tremenheere Sculpture Gardens, which is home to many incredible sculptures throughout its grounds. Or, if you want to create your own art, why not embark on one of Penwith’s popular painting holidays to really make the most of Cornish scenery.
Shopping in Penzance
Not all town centres have the beautiful granite terrace and arcade steps, the iron railings; or retain the architecture of previous generations above the modern shop frontages that Penzance enjoys. There are many Georgian and early Victorian facades just above eye-level in Penzance giving a really unique backdrop to your shopping. By way of shops, you’ll find everything from boutiques to big names as well as delis and food shops that are jam-packed with tempting, locally sourced treats.
Walks
Penzance, with its recently resurfaced prom and surrounding coastline, is perfectly placed to enjoy some stunning Cornish walks. The further to the west you go, the more rugged and captivating the coastline – although be warned, in Penwith, the more beautiful the view, the steeper the trek to reach it! Our favourite stretch has to be between Mousehole all the way along to the Minack Theatre, which provides days upon days of incredible coastal walks. During your treks, make sure to keep an eye out for some of Cornwall’s ancient sites, which can be found scattered around the wild landscape.
Eating out
Penzance self-catering holidays are perfect; Chapel Street leads up from the harbour to the town centre where you will find a range of restaurants and pubs as well as independent shops and houses of historic interest and importance. Lavenders Deli on Alverton Street is ideal for stocking up on treats for your holiday cottage. Check out our blog on places to eat in Penzance for ideas on where to refuel.
Dog-friendly Penzance
With the sights and smells of the nearby beaches and plenty of dog-friendly pubs (Admiral Benbow is particularly popular with dogs and people alike), Penzance is a wonderful place for a dog-friendly holiday in Cornwall. There are also some great dog-friendly beaches nearby so you can enjoy a proper romp in the sand with your furry best friend.
Golowan Festival – Happening every year towards the end of June, Penzance’s Golowan Festival (also known as Mazey Day) is a bright and cheerful celebration of midsummer and promises an array of colour, music and festivities. Watch the parade of intricate puppets that dance through the streets, cheer on the Morris dancers and browse your way through the collection of stalls that sell everything from jewellery to mouth-watering foods.
Penzance Literary Festival - One for all the bookworms out there, the Penzance Literary Festival in July celebrates words in all forms from written to spoken to sung! Come along and catch the many performances, take part in literary discussions and even try your hand at creating your own stuff with the many workshops that take place.
Christmas in Penzance – With Christmas lights turning the whole stretch of coast between St Michael’s Mount and Mousehole into a glittering display, a jovial walk (or drive) is always a great way to get in the festive spirit. In town, you’ll find shop windows awash with intricate displays that tie in with a chosen theme as businesses from all over the town take part in an annual Christmas competition to dazzle shoppers. Santa never misses Penzance when doing the rounds, as you can always find him sitting happily in his grotto during the light switch on. Fairs, processions, and costumed antics take place throughout December, so you’re always in for a spectacle or two when you visit at Christmas.
Literally at the end of the line, Penzance is well-placed for holiday makers that prefer the train to a car. For those wanting to tour Mount’s Bay on foot (or on two wheels), there is a superb path that runs right the way along from Marazion to Mousehole, making excellent use of the promenade in Penzance. You can often find food vans along the prom, allowing for a quick refuel with a view during your jaunt. For those with a car, there are numerous car parks around the town as well as in the surrounding villages so you can enjoy Penwith by foot, car, bike or even boat!

Mrs Forrest Apr 2024
Our stay at The Above the Waves was so lovely, the views were amazing especially St Michael's Mount. We found it spotlessly clean and the provisions provided were an extra bonus . We had a lovely stay and everything on on our doorstep. We came on the train and it was less then a 10 min walk to apartment. It was very well equipped with everything you could possibly want . Only downside would be the uncomfortable sofas also unfortunately the lift was playing up and by the Thursday it was out of order ,and as I was with my elderly mother who uses a stick wasn't great ,but I've been reassured that the lift was being looked into . I really think this property is one of the best we've stayed in and although probably wouldn't book it again incase of the lift .

Thank you very much for your review, we were so pleased to see what a wonderful stay you had at Above The Waves and that you were able to take in the picturesque views across Mounts Bay. The close proximity to the centre of town and the train/bus station certainly is a bonus, as it makes exploring the local area so easy. It was a shame to see that the sofas weren't to your liking, it can be a little tricky to find something that will suit everyone, and hope that this didn't detract from the enjoyment of your time in the property. We are ever so sorry that the lift was out of order for the tail end of your break, as we can of course appreciate how helpful this is, especially for those with mobility problems. Happily, this has since been fixed by the management company. We hope to welcome you back to Cornwall again soon! Ben, Customer Services.
Great location and absolutely wonderful views from both the balcony and sitting room. We found both sofas very uncomfortable (the swivel chair was not there). The main bedroom curtains were coming away from the header tape and were so lightweight that we were woken early by light streaming through. On days when the sun was shining, the solar gain was just suffocating - the cooling fans were definitely required even though we stayed in early March. Although the parking was tight we managed OK and it was completely under cover from car to main door. All in all a great place to stay in terms of views, access to shops, restaurants and train station etc. - just needing some TLC.

We're sorry that you found the sofas to be uncomfortable, it can be difficult to find furnishings to suit all preferences, but we will certainly keep an eye on feedback moving forward. While we do our best to accurately reflect the furniture in the property, this is subject to change when being replaced or repaired etc.
We're pleased to hear that the sun was shining during your stay! However, it is a shame that this caused you some discomfort temperature wise. It's great that the fans helped you with this, and we are sure that the sunshine must have made those views even more spectacular. Thank you for your feedback, and we hope to welcome you back to Cornwall again soon. Katy, Customer Services.
Great location and views a couple of very minor issues but would definitely return and recommendto friends!
Mr Howcroft Feb 2024
Excellent accomodation, very good views, extremely modern, heating system is difficult to understand, we suggest that you don't touch anything to do with it!

Those views are one of a kind, aren't they?! It's easy to spend the day looking at all the boats, as well as St Michael's Mount in the distance. We are sorry to hear that you struggled with the heating system at Above The Waves - instructions are left in the property, but if you are ever having difficulty with getting to grips with things we encourage you to give us a call, and we are always happy to assist. We completely understand that when you are used to your own heating system it can take a while to get your head around a different one! Katy, Customer Services.
Beautiful apartment with amazing views whatever the weather.
Mrs Traynor Dec 2023
Above the Waves is a beautifully appointed and extremely comfortable apartment with glorious views over Penzance harbour and across to St. Michael's Mount. It is perectly located with easy access to public transport and within walking distance of several beauty spots and local restaurants. One of the best apartments we have ever stayed in.
Ms Gardiner Oct 2023
Fantastic light and well located apartment. Easy access to swimming, shops and places to eat. Highly recommended.
Ms Bartlett Sep 2023
We had a great holiday. Unexpectedly hot,but good fans in all the rooms and good showers meant we were fine! The apartment had fab views and is central for shops,bus and train,walks to Newlyn and Marazion and lots of eating places. We can recommend the Old Lifeboat House which is only a few steps away from the apartment block.
Mr Holmes Sep 2023
This is a lovely holiday home, great wrap around porch with view of Marina, good location and fitted out with everything you need for your stay. Good for a couple and maybe one child. I would happily stay again. Parking space is big enough for a medium sized car.
Miss Simpson Jul 2023
A lovely property and beautiful views from the all around balcony. A good location and very handy for buses and trains. Also a lovely welcoming gift of Scones, Cream, Jam and a bottle of bubbly to welcome us in. We did have a problem with the shower in the en-suite bathroom, reported to Aspects and was dealt with quickly. The only problem for us the heat built up in the property with all the glass bi-folding doors, the sun was shining through and when you got back at the end of the day, the temperature in side was 32c and stifling. It would help if there were some thick curtains to close whilst we were out to stop the sun shining in.
Mr Jegou May 2023

It's great to hear you had a lovely stay at Above The Waves - those views are so beautiful, it's easy to spend a whole day looking outside! We'd like to apologise once again for the issue you experienced with the shower in the en-suite. It's never nice when things such as this happen during a holiday, but we appreciated your patience and understanding at the time while we worked to get this sorted as quickly as possible. Your suggestions for some curtains has been passed along to the property owner to take into consideration for the future, so thank you for your thoughts. We hope we can welcome back to Cornwall soon. Katy, Customer Services.
The apartment is in an ideal position close to all amenities including shops and train and bus stations.
Mr Reid Dec 2022
Fantastic, views and location ideal for a relaxing holiday. 2 good size bedrooms one ensuite. Comfortable, warm and full of light. All you need on arrival was supplied, Tea, Coffee, Milk, Toilet rolls, Kitchen Rolls even Cream scones and jam in the fridge. I have never stayed in a better holiday let. Parking is tight but ok. Looking to book again.
Mr Packer Oct 2022
Absolutely the best holiday accommodation for enjoying all Penzance and West Cornwall has to offer.
Mrs Hunkin Oct 2022

Mrs Caldwell Nov 2021
Amazing view and location will definitely book again.
Mrs Hoggett Nov 2021
The Above The Waves apartment is located overlooking the bay of Penzance and its harbour which has some breathtaking views. It's a beautiful apartment, having everything you need and one I very much would like to return to. My main issue was with the sofas and armchairs which were very uncomfortable. I do hope they can be changed!!
Miss De Lord Oct 2021
Reply from Aspects Holidays
Those views are pretty spectacular aren't they. I could sit there and look out at those all day! We are glad that you liked it too. It can be very difficult to find things like mattresses, sofas and armchairs that will suit everyone's taste, everyone being different; but it is a shame to hear that the sofas and armchairs were not to your preference. Your feedback is automatically sent to owners, so that they can see guest suggestions. The owner has said that she is not currently looking to replace these, but we will of course continue to monitor feedback on these areas. Thanks for your review and we hope to see you back here in Cornwall soon. Tanya, Customer Services
Great apartment. Fantastic views. Ideal hub to explore Cornwall
Mr. Hodgson Sep 2021
What an amazing apartment. View is outstanding and standard of accommodation was very high. Spotlessly clean and had everything you could ask for or need. Aspects communication throughout was consistent and professional. Excellent!!
Mrs Collins Sep 2021
A wonderfully comfortable, modern apartment with a wrap-around balcony which gives super views over Penzance harbour and St Michael's Mount. it has high quality beds and bed linen and is generally very well equipped Parking is slight issue but only when cars in the adjoining space are poorly or inconsiderately parked. We would definitely stay here again
Ms Johnston Sep 2021
This lovely apartment is really well positioned in Penzance. It’s very clean and very well equipped. We have lived our week here and have booked for next year.
Mr Wright Aug 2021
A great location in a well appointed apartment. I would heartily recommend
Mr Nuttef Aug 2021
Definitely our favourite place to stay when visiting the area, excellent position for all amenities. View is second to none. A good place to relax and unwind or to get out and about.
Mrs Johnson Jul 2021
A wonderful apartment with a panoramic view of Penzance harbour and St Michael’s Mount; a delight to watch whatever the weather. It was very well equipped and the beds were extremely comfortable. Bed linen, towels and kitchen equipment were all of good quality. The location is very convenient for train and bus station. We would stay here again.
Mrs Bird Jul 2021
Probably the best apartment in Penzance!
Mrs Traynor Dec 2020
Lovely property in a good location with great views whatever the weather. Within a short walk from the Train and Bus Stations. 5 minutes from shops. Apartment was very clean, well equipped and welcome Prosecco was very gratefully received. Would thoroughly recommend and will definitely stay again
Mr Tuesley Nov 2020
Fantastic. Great location for exploring the south west of Cornwall. Booked again for next year. Says it all.
Mr. Hodgson Sep 2020
Fantastic apartment with great views. Ideally placed to explore the surrounding areas. That good we booked again for next year.
Mr. Hodgson Sep 2020
Had a great week in Penzance, apartment was very clean and well equipped with good views over the harbour. Communication from Aspect holidays was great - we will definitely use them again.
Mr Anthony Aug 2020
This is an amazing apartment mostly for its Panoramic views and location to many of Cornwall’s amazing scenery. Access was easy and there is a lift to the apartment which is on the 4th floor. Although many of the apartments in the block appear to be residential we barely saw anyone during our stay which was peaceful and relaxing. The apartment is spacious and well equipped with good quality appliances and furnishings. The beds were very comfortable and the Prosecco, shortbread biscuits and fresh roses made for a lovely welcome. There are a good choice of books to read should you wish. I particularly enjoyed a book left by the owners on the buildings of Penzance many of which you can see from the apartment itself. There are numerous supermarkets a 5 minute drive away or smaller supermarkets within walking distance. The apartment is accessed Via security gates and has its own undercover parking space which requires you to park very close to a pillar. We have a Ford Mondeo but this was not a problem. I imagine if you had an SUV this could be more of an issue although there is alternative parking across the road in the Harbour car park at a cost. We didn’t eat out on this occasion but there are nice restaurants nearby and we can recommend Fraser’s fish and chips on the promenade. It does come with a high price tag during the peak season but we felt it was justified for it’s fabulous view. Hoping to return in the future.
Mr Whan Aug 2020
We had great service from Aspects as always. We'd recommend the Pirates Rest for takeaway fish and chips.
Mrs Lenten Mar 2020
We had a lovely stay at above the waves The apt is central to everything in a great spot and was quiet and relaxing. The views were stunning and can't wait to return. All fittings and furnishing were of a very high standard, great ensuite and comfy beds, welcome tray and flowers were much appreciated. We found the apt very warm and welcoming as were the people of Penzance.
Mrs Perry Feb 2020
A beautiful property, with probably the best view in Penzance
Mrs Traynor Dec 2019
Our fourth time at Above the Waves, which probably says it all. It's a very spacious, warm and comfortable flat with amazing views to the end of the Lizard. We've only stayed in the winter when it's wonderful for weather and wave watching. All furnishings and equipment are high quality and there are plenty of crocks, pans and cutlery for those who like to cook - no cheeseparing here! The nearest shop is less than five minutes away, the remainder and the cinema, galleries, restaurants and theatre all within ten minutes.
Mrs Forrest Nov 2019
Super flat for exploring this area of Cornwall either by public transport or by car. Great views of bay - loved watching all the harbour side action. Flat has everything you need and tastefully decorated throughout.
Mrs Low Jul 2019
Incredible views and lovely flat. An excellent position, near the shops and restaurant but yet very quiet. The weather wasn’t particularly kind but even on a rainy day there was so much to look at from the huge windows . It was so nice to be able to park the car in a covered area which we found roomy enough for our medium sized car. A lovely holiday.
Mrs Billingsley Jun 2019
We were completely satisfied with the extraordinary good service. Little touches like offering to help with places to visit and taking the trouble to contact us to see if we had settled, make sure all was as we had expected and reassure us that any problems or mishaps would be sorted. The property Above the Waves in Penzance is a real touch of luxury - just perfect.
Mrs Donaldson Jun 2019
Have been to Penzance 7 times now. This is the best apartment we have ever stayed at in Penzance, and in fact is the best accommodation we stayed at during our three month holiday of the UK. Thank you aspects for the fantastic base and all the extra treats. We hope to return!
Ms Forbes May 2019
An excellent apartment, in a great location. It is spacious, clean and well-equipped. The balcony circles around from the front along the entire west side, giving fantastic views in several directions. Although we were only 2 singles, the place would easily accommodate 2 couples.
Ms Lovelock May 2019
Beautiful property, amazing views
Mrs Traynor Dec 2018
Lovely location with great views over the harbour, comfortable and we had a very pleasant stay. Fairly well equipped (could do with some more cutlery and china), and can get very hot as lot of window glass without any sunblinds. However aside from these points would definitely recommend.
Mr Jennings Sep 2018
Reply from Aspects Holidays
We are glad you liked Above the Waves, and thank you for your helpful comments. We have asked the housekeeper to check on the kitchen equipment; there had been plenty available, but these things can get broken over the season, so may need some additional items now. There are certainly a lot of windows there to enjoy the fantastic views; we are sorry to hear if this can make it a little warm at times. We will monitor future feedback, so that we can pass on recommendations to the owner. Thank you for letting us know your thoughts, and we hope that we will be able to welcome you back again soon. Tanya, Customer services
What a place to stay, it was fantastic in every way. Excellent views across the harbour. Close to the transport links, you don't even need a car to stay here. The town is on your door step to all the bars shops and restaurants. Lots to do and see,
Mr Rowe Sep 2018
Lovely apartment in very convenient central location and with a great view of the harbour and St Michael’s Mount.

Excellent property with superb facilities in a prime location. Must be one of the best views in Penzance.
Mr Davies Dec 2016
I would definitely reccomend this apartment. The most beautiful views from the balcony were enjoyed. Whole apartment block was very quiet. As for inside everything you need is provided couldn't have asked for a better holiday. Well worth the money. Owner has taken great care in providing a comfortable place to stay. Loved every second of it
Miss McKendry Nov 2016
Fabulous place in a lovely position. Covered in parking space was great. Everything in the apartment you could wish for. We have booked the same apartment (Above the Waves) again for next year. Thank you to whoever owns it for a lovely accommodation (wish it was ours). :-)

Mrs Houlden Jul 2015
This is a spectacular property. Not only was everything 5 star in its appointments, but the view of the harbor was constantly entertaining to us. I can't imagine a better location.
Mrs Herman Jul 2015
Top quality apartment with stunning views. Good value for your money. No need to worry if you can't get your car in the space provided the public car park is across the road and we could keep an eye on it from the apartment
Ms Devereux Jun 2015
If I tell everyone how gorgeous it is they will all want to book it, so I'm keeping quiet...!
