Self Catering Holiday Cottages in Mousehole

There are plenty of picturesque fishing villages on the coast of Cornwall, but Mousehole is up there as one of the most popular. Just a few miles away from the lively town of Penzance, Mousehole is a charming seaside destination that has a surprisingly rich history with stories including the Penlee Lifeboat tragedy, the town’s Wild Bird Hospital work after the Torrey Canyon disaster, and the last women in the world to only speak the Cornish language. You can enjoy the beach and old-world atmosphere that the town still retains as well as venturing further afield to enjoy the wide range of other Cornish highlights in the area. Read more

Where to stay in Mousehole

The famous poet Dylan Thomas once called Mousehole “the loveliest village in England”. After visiting this gorgeous little place tucked away in West Cornwall, we’re sure you’ll agree! The narrow, winding streets around Mousehole’s picturesque harbour are home to delicious delis, cafes and a traditional pub, while day hikes along the South West Coast Path provide sea views galore. And, of course, there are plenty of secluded beaches just a short hop away.

Finding the ideal Cornwall holiday cottages couldn’t be simpler, either. We’ve got lots of wonderful accommodation options in Mousehole, from romantic beach-front boltholes with stunning views to larger family properties close to the town centre. You’re guaranteed to discover a home away from home for your Cornish holiday with our well-appointed self-catering cottages. All have fully-equipped kitchens so you can cook exactly what you want, while some are dog-friendly or even include luxury extras like bubbling hot tubs.

There’s no arguing that Cornwall is the ultimate summer destination. But don’t discount winter for a trip. The village of Mousehole is famous for its epic Christmas Lights display which covers the harbour and seafront in a rainbow of colour. Like a good day trip? A walk to Lamorna Cove is well worth the 8km return trip along the coastal path, plus you can stop off for a dip in turquoise waters. You won’t run out of things to do on a holiday to Mousehole, so why not get a trip booked today?

Best things to do in Mousehole

As well as being a short hop away from some of Cornwall’s most secluded coves, Mousehole has a long list of attractions and day trip possibilities to discover.

  • Mousehole Harbour: Stroll along the picture-perfect harbour walls and watch the boats bobbing in the bay, before heading to a nearby cafe.
  • South West Coast Path: There are walks aplenty along the South West Coast Path which runs directly through Mousehole in both directions.
  • St Michael’s Mount: Walk or boat over to the imposing castle of St Michael’s Mount, situated on a tidal island off nearby Marazion.
  • Minack Theatre: Just a short drive away, the outdoor Minack Theatre famously puts on cliff-top productions that overlook the ocean.
  • Christmas festivities: Mousehole has one of the UK’s most impressive festive light shows. Don’t skip trying seasonal Stargazy Pie at the Ship Inn, either.
