About this property

Lovely cottage in a great location
Excellent location with great views. Cottage had everything you need for a relaxing stay. Mousehole is a quaint fishing village, not overcrowded and the harbour is picturesque with a pub (the ship) that serves good food and an excellent pint.

About the host

Hosted by Phay MacDowel

Host profile image
Mousehole Cottage was built by husband and wife team - Stylish Cornish Cottages. The cottage was built in 2008 and is finished to a high standard and comfortably appointed throughout. Stylish Cornish Cottages lovingly manage a small number of properties in West Cornwall, we own Mousehole Cottage so know the property inside out if you have any questions. We live in the area so can give you lots of locals advice and book any trips or experiences you might wish to participate in whilst on holiday in this wonderful part of Cornwall. Nothing is ever too much trouble when it comes to your holiday!

Why they chose this property

Built to a high standard it benefits from wonderful sea views, private parking which is rare in Mousehole and a lovely private garden. The cottage is located on the edge of the historic harbour, a stones throw from the harbour itself with its winding narrow lanes, net lofts, galleries and cafes. The location is beneficial as driving into Mousehole can be tricky in the summer, you have the benefit of parking at the cottage pottering around the village, but if you wish to explore further afield you can get out of Mousehole quickly and easily in your car. A car is not essential, Penzance mainline station is 3 miles away and buses run regularly from Penzance to Mousehole.

What makes this property unique

Sea Views, private garden and parking and just a stones throw from the picturesque harbour of Mousehole
