INTRODUCTION

The quarry and foreshore at Penlee situated on the outskirts of Newlyn represent an opportunity to create a marina with 24 hour tidal access. The marina will in conjunction with proposed schemes at Newyln and Penzance greatly increase the sailing area to the West of Falmouth and the Lizard acting as a convenient stopping and visiting point to those looking to sail onto the Scilly Isles, Ireland and France.

The project consisting of 195 berths will operate in conjunction with a small hotel and include a dry stack facility able to store predominantly powered boats such as RIBs and small day boats. It is hoped that boat maintenance facilities including lifting will be available elsewhere in Mounts Bay and Newlyn is currently being considered as an option.

The scheme is at an early stage with a flexible approach being adopted so as to complement neighbouring projects at Newlyn, Penzance and Scillies. The project will include residential, car parking and commercial retail buildings. MDL is excited to be working on an ambitious scheme and intends to create a high quality marina with good architecture and planning. The company is pleased to be working closely with Penwith and in particular looking at ways which can help to significantly develop a marina related industry in Mounts Bay. The plans are at an early stage and so please return to this page for updates as they occur. Any questions then please contact MDL.
