Property Description

Visitors to Calac Cottage will find it perfectly positioned to relish every moment of their time in Mousehole, the quaint fishing village linked by narrow passages and streets with cottages that crouch above the high walled little harbour. A traditional mid-terraced south facing cottage, with a small area of garden to the front and a tiny courtyard at the rear, it sits right in the middle of this lovely old Cornish spot, just a two minute walk to the picturesque quayside. Enter through the sunroom into a bright and cheerful living room, where the age-old features of shelved alcoves beside a granite stone fireplace still remain, adding traditional ambience and character. A partially glazed wall adds borrowed light to both this room and the kitchen, attractively fitted with pale sage cabinets. Paintings by local artists add bright splashes of colour to the pastel walls of three tastefully presented bedrooms, one of which although only a very small single bedded room, adds versatility to the accommodation for four. Take a short walk and you'll find yourself wriggling through the alleyways of Mousehole with several galleries, a general store, post office, two friendly inns, restaurants and cafés serving cream teas to tempt you. The little harbourside sandy beach offers an idyllic spot for sketching and imaginative photography, and safe sheltered bathing. Within a short drive are both colourful Newlyn, which merges into the sunny town of Penzance, bustling with attractive streets with antique and craft shops, pubs and eating houses. A hot spot not to miss is the stunning golden sand at Porthcurno Beach, with its Mediterranean feel. Parking at the cottage can sometimes be found in the vicinity or the harbour car park is within 150 yards.
