About this property
Sitting on a high advantage point in the village, providing stunning views over the harbour this stone built semi-detached Victorian cottage in Mousehole is spacious and charming. Stunning sea views from all rooms at the front of the house. The living room has an impressive bay window which draws in the wonderful seascape over rooftops, and a fireplace for out of season cosiness. Gather together for good food in the dining room or enjoy brunch around the kitchen bar. The bedrooms are elegant and the master has a King Size bed and a great view out to the sea.. The attic bedroom is quaint and roomy with panelled walls, a sloping ceiling and a window framing the view. The cottage is a small pebbled area with bench seating and creates the perfect spot for barbecue wizardry against the backdrop of sea and sky (children must be supervised). Enjoy superb coastal views of beautiful Mounts Bay from this handsome seaward-facing Victorian house, just a few minutes stroll from the picturesque harbour in Mousehole. Explore the narrow winding lanes of Mousehole with its galleries, eateries and traditional inns serving fresh local fayre and Cornish ales. The small harbour is alive with colourful boats and has a gently sloping beach for safe bathing. For that 'wow' factor and within a half hours drive, visit the granite cliffs and Mediterranean blue waters at Porthcurno Beach or the romance and drama of the open air theatre at Minack, carved from the granite cliff face and jutting precariously into the sea. Penzance and Newlyn are a short drive or bus ride away, and St Michael's Mount is the jewel in Cornwall's crown, perched opposite the long stretch of sandy beach at Marazion. Perfect for friends and family to enjoy their stay in Mousehole in comfort and to use as a base to explore Cornwall.
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.
