Welcome to Creel Cottage
An artists home in the heart of Mousehole, West Cornwall
 |
Mousehole, a picturesque conservation area, was described by Dylan Thomas as the loveliest village in England. Creel Cottage (dating from the 18th Century or earlier) is a Grade II listed, former fisherman’s loft in the heart of Mousehole, a few paces from the harbour – also renowned for its immense charm.
Tucked away in an 'ope' (Cornish for a type of courtyard), this two-bedroomed cottage benefits from its own private sunny garden, accessed via a stable door from the sitting room.

Creel Cottage - Sleeps 4
Two Double Bedrooms I Sitting Room I Kitchen I Bathroom I Garden
Creel Cottage is an artist's home, decorated with an eclectic mixture of pictures, fabrics and furniture. Downstairs there is one double bedroom and the bathroom. Upstairs there is a large, bright sitting room with stable door leading to the garden, a kitchen with dining area, and the other double bedoom.
The cottage overlooks a courtyard (making it both private & quiet – unusual for a village house) and it also enjoys the benefit of a long pleasant garden where one can sit out. The garden leads to the adjacent street (where one could briefly park a car to unload bags). Local parking is between £2 - £3 per day and there are weekly passes.
Unfortunately Creel Cottage is not setup for children under 12 years old, also we are a non smoking cottage and we do not allow pets.
