Things to do
A calendar of classes
Explore a new medium or perfect your painting skills with a short course at the Newlyn School of Art. Whether you’re beginning with brushes or want to explore experimental painting, there’s a class for every skill level. Courses in February 2023 included Painting with Oils, Contemporary Landscapes and Abstract Figure Painting. Most courses span 3-4 days and include all the paints and materials you’ll need. You’ll find a calendar of classes on their website.
Places to Eat
Catch of the day
Making the most of its proximity to Newlyn fish market, Argoe specialises in fish, seafood and natural wines. Situated on the harbourfront of this charming town, the restaurant is an atmospheric place to try local favourites, such as John Dory and lobster (depending on the catch of the day). Book your table inside or at the counter here.
