Mousehole Cottage, stylish with sea views, parking & close to village centre

Mousehole Cottage is a beautiful property, with fantastic, panoramic sea views and private parking. Completed in 2008 the property is located just off the main Parade and only 60 metres from the harbour. Well appointed and beautifully furnished this cottage offers a high standard of accommodation for 6 people in this sought after location. The cottage is surrounded by a compact, private and well-maintained garden with large garden table and chairs with sea views.
Mousehole, described by Dylan Thomas as “the loveliest village in England” is a traditional, picture postcard Cornish harbour with small sandy beach ideal for little ones at the far end. Mousehole is made up of winding streets, alleyways, old net lofts, art galleries, gift shops and several very good pubs, restaurants and cafes. There are many sandy beaches nearby, Porthcurno and Sennen to name but a few. The larger historic town of Penzance is 3 miles away with a wider range of shops, supermarkets, leisure centre, outdoor lido, pubs and critically acclaimed restaurants. The Scillonian ferry runs from Penzance to the stunning Scilly Isles.

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.

Beautiful cottage
Stunning property in the heart of Mousehole. The cottage is beautifully presented and is immaculately clean. Very comfy beds with great views looking out to sea. Kitchen was well equipped including BBQ utensils etc. Our dog Wilson, loved it, especially with a couple of dog treats upon our arrival. Best place we have stayed in the UK.

Great to have parking which is limited in the village. Thank you Phay for the wine, milk & choccy biscuits. We shall be back in 2024 for another escape from real live. Mark & Mandy

Relaxing break in superb cottage
Lovely break in a beautifully converted traditional Cornish cottage. Welcomed with freshly baked scones, jam & clotted cream with a bottle of wine. Even the dog was left tasty biscuits & her own towel. Mousehole itself is quaint with countless cafes and art galleries but no traditional shops other than a post office selling a few groceries. Very regular bus service to local towns with the bus stop right outside the cottage . The parking space was a god send and also fantastic that did not need to drive through the narrow congested streets going through Mousehole. Good amenities,shops & beaches within a short driving distance. Trip to the Minack theatre was unmissable.

mousehole cottage
Just returned from relaxing break in mousehole. The cottage is lovely and a perfect holiday home. I walked the dog on the shoreline every morning as it only took 30 seconds to get there. The cottage is very clean and bright and has all mod cons needed. Its a perfect base for exploring this part of cornwall, most of the good beaches are no more than a 15/20 drive. The parking advertised is not ready yet but had no problem parking in car park a few metres away and there was no one on duty so it was free!(its only £2 a day anyway). Our 8 year old loved it there, so kid friendly too. There is a good bus service and there is a stop outside the cottage that takes you too Penzance, so car not strictly necessary, but vital if you want to get off the beaten track. Owner very friendly and helpful.

Lovely week in Mousehole Cottage
The location of this cottage is superb. Even though the weather was not the kindest, the cottage has great views of the sea and it was very atmospheric watching the wild sea from the upstairs window. Being just before the main village (but still only a 2 minute walk to the harbour) meant that there was no issue with having to get the car through the narrow streets. The parking space very close to the cottage is tight but enough for a Mercedes Estate. All the communication with Phay and the booking etc was very easy and clear. Thanks for a great week!

Comfortable, friendly, everything went smoothely
This was a very nice cottage, very welcoming. The flowers upon arrival were a lovely touch. The view of the sea was somewhat occluded but I doubt we could have gotten a better view at this price. It was a great weak and Phay was very helpful the one time we needed anything. Thx!

Lovely property. More information needed in relation to check in and access.
Great location and lovely house. Travelling with elderly parents it would have been beneficial to have known that access to the premises is via some steep steps and a narrow uneven unpaved alley. Additionally the placement of the key press is not ideal for all ages / physical conditions.

The location was our reason for choosing the cottage but the property was such a find! It was so comfortable, clean and everything you could wish for was provided. The added bonus was dedicated parking so nearby. We had a fabulous break and would definitely recommend this accommodation to anyone requiring a relaxing break in a lovely cottage.

Cornish Treat!
Lovely cottage, perfectly located in the beautiful fishing village of Mousehole. With private off-street parking and being so close to the harbour, this was a rare find that didn’t disappoint! With sea views and plenty of space for us all (4 adults and a lab), it was the perfect Cornish treat!

Beautiful Village and a fantastic cottage
Great cottage with a the perfect location in Mousehole and best of all it has easy parking. Inside the house is nicely fitted out and had plenty of room for the family with a couple of large sofas. Excellent location to day trips to the Cornish sights as well as a number of great costal walks if you don't fancy driving.

Summer week
We had thought about staying in Mousehole a number of times & we are really glad we did. The cottage was lovely & just perfect for our family of 4. The sofas are both big & comfortable which is always important to us & the only addition I can think of would be extra cushions although this may have been to do with the extra measures in place due to the pandemic. Although the weather was changeable we did manage to make use of the patio & it’s a lovely sunny addition to the property with the sea view. Although the overall feel of the holiday was strange due to the pandemic we will definitely be back for another visit. The biscuits & wine on arrival were a lovely addition.

Beautiful cottage tucked away from the road. Sea views and a parking space in Mousehole making it desirable and practical. Excellent comma from the owners added an extra special touch. The property is spotless and really gorgeous inside - in reality even better than the photos. A real delight.
