Discover the quaint fishing village of Mousehole with a stay at this traditional Cornish home. Though it's been updated with contemporary furnishings and amenities, you can easily discern the home's history with its old stone walls, wood-burning stove, and the exposed wooden trusses that adorn the bedroom's ceilings. An outdoor balcony on the roof connects to two of the bedrooms, making it the perfect spot for a morning breakfast or cup of tea. We love the living area’s enormous bay window that looks onto the sea – a view that goes hand in hand with a bottle of wine in front of the fire or a good book. Mousehole offers plenty of options for eateries, including traditional pubs and tearooms, but on nights when you just fancy a home-cooked meal, the kitchen is fully equipped. Dine at the rustic wooden table, then head out for an evening walk along the harbour wall and watch the waves crash. Tomorrow you can walk the Coastal Path to the Tater Du Lighthouse, or take a scenic drive to the nearby towns of Newlyn, St Michael's Mount or charming St Ives. If you prefer to stay in Mousehole, wander the shops and enchanting streets...

About Mousehole

This tiny Cornish fishing village packs an unexpected arty punch. Set on the hills above Mousehole Harbour, its winding, cottage-filled streets feature four art galleries. The surrounding area is known for its creativity, with many artists having lived in the nearby communities. Perhaps it’s the beautiful coastline, dramatic woodlands, or the coastal walks where clifftops seem to be blanketed in a colourful coat of yellow gorse, green ferns and purple...
