Located in Mounts Bay, Perranuthnoe is perfect for those looking to escape the crowds and enjoy the serenity that Cornwall has to offer. Described as a countryside village by the sea, Peranuthnoe is secluded enough to ensure a peaceful stay, but close enough to the bustling town of Marazion if you fancy a more lively atmosphere. With the Lizard Peninsula within easy reach, Perranuthnoe is perfect for walking holidays and exploring the rugged coastline.
Dating back to the 12th century, Perranuthnoe's village pub named the 'Victoria Inn' is thought to be the oldest recorded Inn in Cornwall. Full of charm and character, this award winning pub is well worth a visit.
A short walk from the pub is the picturesque Perranuthnoe Church, which is dedicated to Cornwall's patron saint, St Piran. The church stands on the site of a former church dating back to 1160, and includes features from the original church, such as a Norman font.
Perranuthnoe beach, (also known as Perran Sands) offers good surfing when the conditions are right, and is ideal for beach-goers with its golden sands, cafe and car park. Be sure to visit at low tide however as there is very little left of the beach when the tide comes in! The Cabin Cafe offers stunning views and is featured in our blog: The best beach-front cafes in West Cornwall.
A popular fishing spot, even at low tide, Perranuthnoe is a favoured spot with the locals for seabass and dogfish.
The 'Village Crafts' centre located in a converted barn in the heart of the village offers an extensive range of local artwork, crafts, gifts, jewellery, and country clothing.
The Perranuthnoe Circular walk follows part of the South West Coast Path, which offers great views of St Michael's Mount, before cutting inland and back to Perranuthnoe via fields and villages.
The nearby Prussia Cove is a small and secluded rocky cove, surrounded by organic farmland and woodland has a famous history of smuggling!

The tradition of Tom Bawcock comes from the feast or famine lifestyle of Cornwall. The story goes that it was just before Christmas; there had been no fish for weeks, the boats couldn’t get out into the raging storm, the village was starving. One man, Tom Bawcock, dared to take his boat out of the harbour’s safety. He returned with enough fish to make fish pie for the whole village.
Today, a festival takes place each year to celebrate Tom Bawcock's bravery. During the festival, Star Gazey pies are eaten in memory of this famous event.

This is very important to as we like to take her on holiday with us. The property is very comfortable and extremely well equipped and the views over Mounts Bay and view of St Michaels Mount stunning. Will definitely book to stay there again. Just lovely, thank you
Mrs Gardiner June 2018
Oamaru Barn is a pleasure to look forward staying at! It’s location and views are second to none and we’ve been travelling to Cornwall for many many years this is possibly one of the best locations we’ve ever stayed at! And most of all my grand daughter loves it! Thanks Aspects this really was a gem of a find.
Mr Wilburn May 2018
Stayed at Oamaru Barn for a week at the beginning of May with some friends and our dogs. We were very impressed with the decor, all very clean and extremely well equipped. Really liked the fact it was so warm and cosy. Good parking and fantastic walking from there. Lovely views and good pubs to eat nearby, particularly liked the Lion and the Lamb, Ashton, very good food and sensible prices. Also recommend the Hut for "proper job" hot chocolate with cream and marshmallows. Lovely weather couldn't ask for more.
Mrs Matthews April 2018

Ms Whyley July 2017
Wonderful place to stay, lots of lovely touches (e.g. A tub of clotted cream as a welcome present!). The views across Mount's Bay were fantastic, and it was a great base for exploring lots of West Cornwall.
Miss McFarland July 2017
Well equipped, cosy, amazing views, friendly and helpful owners. The cream tea which was waiting for us on arrival was a very welcoming touch
Mrs Garden June 2017
All in all Oamaru Barn is one of the best places we have stayed in. Easy access in and out of the lane, garden was great for the dogs, all enclosed. Could leave them on there own out there and not worry they would get out! Will definitely consider booking it again in the future. The owner was very nice and friendly too. My grand daughter forgot her binoculars and she (the owner) went back to her house and lent her a pair that she had. Little things like that mean a lot! We really enjoyed our week. Virtually everything about the place was exceptional. Thanks very much.
Mr Wilburn May 2017
Oamaru was just like home from home - everything you needed was there
Mrs Green April 2017
Oamaru Cottage exceeded our expectations. It is very well designed internally, with a good balance between, kitchen practicalities, functional dining area and a relaxing sitting area. There is a feeling of space in the cottage and the colour scheme is harmonious. Everywhere is clean and fresh. The views of the sea from the windows, with the changing light on St Michael's Mount, is a real bonus. Altogether a lovely cottage which has a very welcoming feel.
Mrs Markham April 2017
The views were fantastic. The farm workers very friendly. The cottage was was and cosy.

perfect place to Chill we will be back
Mr Foxhall May 2016
A very comfortable and well equipped cottage. Wonderful views across the bay and ideal location if you have a dog, so many walks to choose from.
Mrs Glanfield April 2016
Finished to a high standard. A comments book was there, and it was interesting to see other people's comments and how quick things were addressed and resolved. (might seem small but the week before we stayed there it was commented on no cork screw and we had a corkscrew in the draw when we got there) it may seem a small thing but it counts for a lot to know that the book is left there for a reason it is read and acted on. very impressed, things like this is what brings people back again and again
Mrs Frost September 2015

Ms Kammann August 2015
