Overview

Mousehole is magical, and if you're in search of a holiday home here that's both gorgeous and perfectly positioned, this fabulous harbourside cottage is a dream. Beautifully open plan in design, the living room spans the width of the cottage, with two large sash windows framing views of the harbour. A plush velvet sofa, cast iron woodburner, and statement lighting create a sumptuous space to unwind in, while the dining area invites leisurely breakfasts and evening meals.

The kitchen is both attractive and practical, with an ornamental Cornish range, slate worktops and a range of top-notch appliances. Upstairs, two airy double bedrooms (one ensuite) have sash windows that showcase incredible sea views. The relaxed, paired-back styling lends an ease to the rooms, and bespoke upside-down blinds encourage guests to take advantage of those essential lazy mornings lie-ins. The third bedroom is a delight for families with children and has two single beds and a TV. Stunning design details and playful twists pepper this home’s interior, like reclaimed school desks as bathroom vanities, stripped and painted floorboards, and an outdoor shower nook between the lane and back door.

Of course, not enough can be said about this property’s location which is right on edge of the harbour and just metres from the beach. Mousehole’s pretty streets and fabulous restaurants are a carefree stroll from the front door, and even if you did feel like venturing further afield, some of Cornwall’s most beautiful scenery at Porthcurno and Marazion are within a few minutes’ drive.

Long weekend with the grandchildren
4.8/5

We had a lovely weekend with our granddaughters, just an amazing location, to wake up and look at the harbour and all that goes with harbours, boats coming and going , swimmers and children playing on the small beach. We all enjoyed it, both young and old. The cottage was great, spacious and comfortable. Would not hesitate to return.

February in Mousehole
4.8/5

We spent February half term at Berlewen - grandparents, parents and grandchildren of 6 and 1 year. Despite the weather the cottage was warm and cosy. We enjoyed the log burning stove. The position directly on the harbour front was great for staring out of the window watching the sea and life go by, and taking the boys down on to the beach. We appreciated the buckets and spades left in a cupboard, also a few toys and books. In the height of the summer the location might feel a bit busy with people coming and going to the car park. Also there is no outside space to sit except for coming out on to the harbour. The kitchen is very well equipped and the welcome package was appreciated. Comfortable beds and good showers. Luxury Coastal were very responsive to any queries.

Suzanne, 27 Feb 2026

Hi Suzanne, Thank you for leaving us your review. We are delighted to hear that your family were all able to go on holiday for February Half term. Its great to hear that the cottage was cosy with the log burner and that you were all able to watch the sea and everything outside from the warm cottage. We are pleased that you were able to make use of the buckets and spades as well as the toys and books! It sounds like you had a lovely break! Thank you for letting us know that the kitchen is well equipped, beds comfortable and the showers were good. We do hope to welcome you back to stay with us again. Best wishes, The Luxury Coastal Team.

Lovely stay
5/5

Had a lovely stay at Berlewen, very comfortable, the kitchen had everything you could need. The pictures don’t do it justice, and despite visiting in January a lot of the shops/pubs in the village was open.

Our best Cornwall holiday yet
5/5

This is an absolute gem. The location could not be better, right on the harbour front. The house itself is well looked after, with everything you need. Very cosy, especially with the log-burner going. We have been coming to Cornwall every winter for years and years, and this is hands down our favourite place yet. We were there when the famous Mousehole Christmas lights were on, which just added to the magic of the week. Thank you!

Garth, 09 Jan 2026

Hi Garth, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the house and its cosy atmosphere, there’s nothing quite like relaxing by the log burner after a day by the harbour. It’s fantastic to know that our location and the magic of the Mousehole Christmas lights made your stay so special. Hearing that this has become your favourite place after so many years visiting Cornwall means the world to us! We’d love to welcome you back anytime, please don’t hesitate to get in touch when you’re planning your next trip. Best wishes, The Luxury Coastal Team

Luxury Location
4.2/5

The luxury for us was the cottage location . Wonderful views of the harbour and the coast line . Easy access to all there is to see in this part of Cornwall . Parking was straightforward ( we did visit out of season ) . Mousehole is very quaint , a few nice restaurant and shops to try , larger supermarkets in nearby towns . Cottage has everything you need . I wouldn’t say it was “luxury “ more “comfortable “ but its location is the bonus !

Suzanne, 17 Oct 2025

Hi Suzanne. Thanks for taking the time to leave your feedback. We're really happy to hear you enjoyed the views, and felt like you had everything you needed for a great stay. We really hope to welcome you back again, and next time we'd love to ensure you do get that luxury feeling we always aim to give! All the best.
