    The cottage is is need to a bit of a spring clean and the main room mattress probably could do with a topper. It is worth noting that the Wi-Fi worked brilliantly and in lieu of a smart TV the access to DVDs and VHS was great, our young boys found this very entertaining. The cottage doesn't a have dishwasher but otherwise the kitchen is set up perfectly for cooking on holiday and the washer dryer worked brilliantly, is is important as drying clothes in the cottage was tricky. The lack of outdoor space was offset by the location as it was a stroll to a cafe or pub and with the porch at the front you can store all the beach stuff before entering the cottage. Our experience of parking was not as bad at all, we did park near old harbour restaurant but we quickly found the local authority parking which was half the price. We had no issues with the loading and unloading. Overall we had a wonderful time and absolutely love mousehole as our base. We hope to be back Thank you.

The property

This Cornish cottage is right in the heart of charismatic Mousehole.

Perfectly positioned to relish every moment in this, famous, quaint fishing village.

This south facing cottage is just a stroll to the quayside where locals swim, launch their kayaks and fishermen still land their daily catch of fresh mackerel, lobster and crab. Come in from a busy day by the seaside, 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 adds to the cottage appeal.

Paintings by local artists add bright splashes of colour to the pastel walls of three tastefully presented bedrooms, which adds versatility to the accommodation for four.

You'll find yourself wandering past the traditional cottages of Mousehole where several galleries, a general store, post office, two friendly inns, restaurants and cafes serving cream teas, are there 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 Marazion and 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 fantastic Mediterranean feel.

The popular Sennen beach, a paradise for surfers is only a short drive away.

Parking at the cottage can sometimes be found in the vicinity or the harbour car park is within 150 yards.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £125.

About the location

MOUSEHOLE

Penzance 4 miles; St Ives 12 miles.

A delightful fishing village nestled on a hillside and spilling down to the shore. The picturesque harbour, surrounded by its maze of winding narrow streets, draws visitors from miles around, while in the distance St Michael's Mount stands proudly in the centre of Mounts Bay. A fabulous coastline and miles of spectacular walking characterise the area, with seabirds, seals and wild headlands leading just around the corner to Land's End. The Minack cliff-top theatre is a few miles along the coast, while reminders of the region's ancient past in the form of Dolmens and standing stones appear everywhere. St Ives, with its stunning beaches, beautiful harbour and narrow winding streets is just 12 miles away.

Note: Out of season (October - April) limited parking is available outside the cottage.
During peak season (May - September) parking is available at the Harbour Car Park or The Parade car park approx 3-4 minutes walk, unloading is possible outside the cottage

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping Bond of £125
