About this business

The Shipyard Market is a vibrant, indoor creative hub anchored in the heart of Porthleven’s iconic harbour, where the town’s industrial heritage meets its thriving independent spirit. Housed in a beautifully repurposed space, it’s a sanctuary for those who love to browse, discover, and linger away from the Atlantic breeze. By day, the market hums with a laid-back, community energy, offering a carefully curated collection of Cornish crafts, contemporary art, and artisan food. Whether you’re hunting for a one-of-a-kind handmade gift, a piece of local jewellery, or simply looking for a cosy corner to enjoy a hot drink and watch the harbour world go by, the Shipyard delivers a slice of Porthleven life that feels both authentic and effortlessly cool.

From the unique finds of its resident traders to the delicious small-batch treats that line the stalls, there is a sense of discovery in every aisle. It is the perfect place to support local makers and pick up something truly special that you won’t find on any high street. Beyond the shopping, it’s a social anchor for the town—a place to gather, slow down, and soak in the creative pulse of the South Coast. Come for the unique finds, stay for the harbour-side atmosphere, and let the Shipyard show you the best of Cornish craftsmanship.
