Discover Newlyn's compelling, often secret, history, see the work of its contemporary artists, visit historic studios which have been unchanged for over 130 years, and delve into the story of the village's Tidal Observatory.

Ms Hill, a resident for nearly 30 years, will share her profound knowledge around how present-day Newlyn artists draw creative inspiration from their environment.

The walking tour, with regular breaks, does include steep side streets, steps, and potentially slick harbour areas.

Navigate comfortably with practical footwear and dress for all weathers.

The walk costs £120 per person, with refreshments and lunch included.

Each tour has a maximum of 10 places.
