About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
It's easy to see why Dylan Thomas waxed lyrical about the village of Mousehole describing it as one of the loveliest in England; almost all of its narrow, winding streets have a sea view of some kind or another and many are peppered with small shops and restaurants as well as galleries to peruse. Down at the seaside, the picturesque fishing harbour with its row of traditional granite cottages, makes a lovely vantage point from which to watch the waves break over the harbour wall, and a scenic walk west along the Coastal Path leads to Lamorna Cove with views of the Tater Du Lighthouse on display along the way.
Perched on a hill above the harbour, Mousehole View offers up to four guests a quiet retreat to escape to within this lovely coastal village. Along with a spacious master bedroom and a second double, there are two fabulous outside spaces to enjoy. The sunny top balcony which can be accessed from the kitchen / diner is ideal for summery soirees, while a spacious lower terrace creates a private space for guests to soak up the sunshine, and can be accessed from the main bedroom. The upside down layout of the house means that the living spaces enjoy lovely sea views including those from the living room as well as from the balcony, where an outdoor sofa makes the perfect place to savour your morning coffee. Just a short drive from Newlyn, and just a little further on to Penzance and then Marazion; Mousehole is beautifully placed on the coast to provide visitors with ample to see and do in the area. And after days spent exploring all that this beautiful part of Cornwall has to offer; what could be better than putting your feet up with a glass of wine and watching the sun set over the ocean?

Ideally located in Mousehole, just a few minutes walk to the town centre with all of its incredible restaurants, but on the edge so no need to navigate the narrow twisty roads in town!
The house itself was much bigger than the photos suggested, and very comfortable. It was particularly nice having the outside space, and the views were lovely from upstairs.

Well equipped and comfortable
We have stayed in Mousehole View before and love it. The kitchen is well equipped and the beds are very comfortable. It’s very handy to have the extra loo. There is much more space than in many of the quaint cottages in Mousehole. There were many lovely touches like the fresh daffodils on the table and scones for our arrival plus salt, pepper, oil etc in the cupboard

Ideal location
ideally located for a quiet break, very clean and tastefully decorated. we will definitely be back.
thank you
We arrived half an hour early but the property was ready. We had a couple of problems which were sorted out within a couple of hours. Lovely airey property with relaxing views. Balcony off the kitchen was nice and relaxing with a coffee/glass of wine. Would recommend. Amenities not far away either!

Liked: Cleanliness, location
Disliked: Communication
Positiv: sehr nette Wikommensgeschenke (Scones, Clotted Cream, Milch, Toast, Butter, Tee etc. ), gute Austattung der Küche, gemütlicher Wohnraum mit sehr schönem Ausblick, Garage (für viele PKW zu klein), netter Garten, zwei separate WC, eines mit Dusche. Ein sehr schöner, offener Außenbereich mit Weitblick auf Dorf und Meer. NEGATIV: anfängliche Probleme waren nicht lösbar, da unsere ausgewiesene Kontaktperson für mehrere Tage nicht erreichbar gewesen ist und sich letztendlich mit dem Hinweis gemeldet hat, dass sie in Südafrika gewesen sei und dort keinen(???) Empfang gehabt hat. Angeblich Besitzerin der Fewo informiert und diese hat angeblich die Agentur nicht informiert, die ihrerseits ebenfalls nicht erreichbar gewesen ist. Das Doppelbett im kleinen Schlafraum ist meine Begriffe zu weich, diese Meinung teilt meine Frau nicht. Das Haus ist extrem hellhörig, die praktischen Schiebetüren zu den Schlafräumen störend laut, was die Hellhörigkeit unterstreicht. Insgesamt würden wir dennoch wieder diese Unterkunft wählen, da sie viele Vorteile hat.

Tolle Aussicht
Das Haus ist geräumig und eigentlich schön eingerichtet, aber leider zum Teil nicht sauber (Sofas und Teppiche) und renovierungsbedürftig. Die Fotos entsprechen nicht dem jetzigen Zustand. Die Lage in Mousehole und die Aussicht sind wirklich toll.
