Our eye for detail and passion for collecting has reinstated all the aesthetic charm of bygone days in this Grade 2 listed cobblers cottage. Artistically arranged rooms boast 'old world' style. Downstairs vintage oil lamps, polished copper kettles and classic pieces of china are perfectly displayed on freestanding cabinets and chests.
To add to the welcoming appeal, tasteful curtains and cushions dress the windows, walls are hung with enchanting pictures and dried flowers suspend from beams and rustic baskets. Steep dogleg stairs lead up to snug bedrooms with antique bedsteads (the double is an antique 4' 6" carved french bed) and marble topped washstands.
A door leads out from the living-room into a sheltered courtyard with garden furniture. Step out of the front door and you are literally beside Mousehole's picturesque walled harbour. For the energetic the coast path will take you to Lamorna, or a more sedate stroll into Newlyn.

Mousehole and Local Area
There are few places remaining in the UK that have retained their original character and Charm in the way that the tiny fishing village of Mousehole has.
Mousehole is a very attractive tourist destination. A small and very safe beach is located in a sheltered part of the harbour which is popular with families, particularly those with small children - an ideal location for family days out, with safe bathing, quite literally at your feet.
Every year at Christmas time, Mousehole is awash with light as the locals adorn their houses, boats and the harbour with Christmas lights. A truly magical sight indeed.
