Overview

Set across three floors, this gorgeous fisherman’s cottage has been beautifully styled and furnished. The light-filled ground floor living space has high ceilings and large sash windows with whitewashed wooden flooring and a wood-burning stove. On the lower ground floor, the kitchen is both stylish and practical, with bespoke cabinetry and polished worktops lending a boutique edge. A cleverly positioned breakfast nook provides a cosy place to enjoy a morning coffee or a candlelit dinner.

The bedroom is on the first floor. A sumptuous king-size French bed invites lazy lie-ins, while natural light filters through windows overlooking the rooftops towards the sea. A freestanding roll-top bath sits within the room, perfect for long, indulgent soaks, and a fabulous downstairs shower room provides a chic space for quickly de-sanding after the beach.

Resting a minute’s walk from the seafront, Mousehole’s restaurants, cafes and independent shops are on the doorstep. Here too, the harbour and its beach are ideal for morning sea dips, gentle strolls or simply watching the boats bob on the tide. For days out, the wider attractions of Mounts Bay await. From nearby Marazion and the iconic St Michael’s Mount to the dramatic coastline at Porthcurno and the open-air Minack Theatre - all are within easy reach by car.

The cottage is accessed from a pedestrian walkway and has steep stone steps leading up to the front door.
