Cosy Cottage in the Heart of Mousehole

Summary:
A short walk away from the beautiful harbour, this stylish cottage for two is the perfect Mousehole getaway. Find eclectic interiors wrapped in characterful granite, with charming original features throughout. From exposed wooden floorboards to aged stone walls, elements of the old are complimented with touches of new. With joyful pops of colour and retro-inspired fabrics, it’s hard to peel yourself away from a home so welcoming. Yet, there’s so much of Cornwall just waiting to be explored.

The Space:
Tucked away along a quaint road and set back from the bustling Mousehole Harbour, this romantic Cornish cottage awaits you. While much of the traditional features have been carefully maintained, vibrant eclectic interiors give the space a fresh, modern feel. Step through the pink front door and into the kitchen - small, yet perfectly formed, there’s plenty to whip up laid-back holiday meals. Meanwhile, leading off the kitchen is a stylish bathroom boasting a waterfall shower.

Head upstairs to find a living space with bags of comfort. In the mornings, seek out the best spot on the deep sofa and settle in with the papers and a cup of tea. In the evenings, stick a film on the wall-mounted Smart TV and feel the day melt away. Next door, the homely bedroom is full of space so unpack and really make yourselves at home. You’ll find lots of antiques throughout the property with tons of character - from rustic furniture to a cast iron stove and pretty artwork hanging on the walls. With Mousehole’s best spots right on the doorstep, Newlyn a short walk and the rest of the south coast only a short drive away, you really are spoilt for choice in this stunning corner of Cornwall.

Short break
The property was as expected. Clean tidy and in a very convenient location. When we arrived it wasn't immediately identifiable as there was no name or house number visible from lane where the narrow pathway leads to the property. The water in the shower room ran intermittently hot/cold. Additionally there didn't appear to be any bags for recycling and the black box for glass recycling was full of paint/building materials. Overall we would consider booking this property again and recommend it as a very pleasant place to stay.

This is a stunning little cottage, tastefully decorated and comfortable, and hidden up a quiet laneway. The books of local history were a bonus. Being in Mousehole, there is NO parking. We found a park on the quay and walked and bussed everywhere which was perfect. Note there is no hairdryer, but hey, you’re on holiday, right?

Gemütliche Wohnung in einem kleinen Hafenort
Die Wohnung ist sehr gemütlich und hat ein schönen Blick. Die Küche und das Bad haben wir als etwas klein empfunden, für eine Urlaubsunterkunft, aber total ok. Mousehole ist ein uriger kleiner Hafenort mit ausgezeichneten Restaurants und Delis. Andere interessante Orte wie St. Ives, das Minnack Theatre oder Mount St. Michael sind schnell zu erreichen.
