Mr Maddox
Undoubtedly the best holiday property we have stayed in. The location is incredible and the views are amazing. Dolphin’s Rise is comfortable, spacious and well- equipped. Mousehole is a charming village, and within easy reach of Marazion and St Ives, both of which are worth visiting. Thank you for letting us stay!
