Fisherman's Square is a surprisingly spacious coastal retreat for four guests, which combines super stylish interiors with jaw-dropping views across the harbour. Heading upstairs from the living areas, both beautiful double bedrooms sit on the first floor at opposite ends of the cottage. The master bedroom benefits from a quite delightful, en suite bathroom where you can relax in a big bubbly bath at the end of your day. Come daybreak, there is nothing quite like waking up to the lapping of the waves below. Head outside and enjoy your morning coffee from one of the most coveted positions in the village; with unrivalled harbour views from the cobbled courtyard garden, yet peacefully tucked away from the crowds, you'll be in your very own piece of paradise.

From Fisherman's Square you can pass the time watching the harbour bobbing with colourful fishing boats. The cottage sits in perfect proximity to rocky coves, sweeping beaches and coast paths allowing you to make the most of every day. After a day exploring, snuggle into the deep sofas with good conversation and a glass of your favourite tipple in front of the mesmerising open fire. The welcoming local pub is just a stroll away, where you are sure to get into the holiday spirit.

Mousehole Holidays

Wish you were already here? Watch our Mousehole webcam>

Mousehole is a great community with a fantastic atmosphere, and self catering in Moushole is effortless. Enjoy afternoon tea at the Tremayne Tea Room or sit down for an evening meal at 2 Fore Street, a French bistro-style restaurant on Mousehole harbour front. Finish off your evening with a pint of local ale at the Ship Inn, one of the famous St Austell Brewery establishments. For more info, read our blog post on Eating out in Mousehole.

Things to do in Mousehole

Mousehole is best when entered on foot, or bus, or bike. Cars are not the way to see Mousehole and best left outside. If you have to bring a car, there’s a big car park on the Penzance side of the village, close to The Old Coastguard Hotel.

Christmas lights

Mousehole has celebrated Christmas with beautiful lights for 40 years! The village is a winter wonderland in the dark nights and grey seas of winter. Many villages have light shows today but Mousehole is special. Holiday cottages overlooking the harbour always enjoy an extra special Cornish Christmas. Read more on our blog about Mousehole lights.

Walks around Mousehole

For those who are not so content with staying in their holiday homes, the walks around Mousehole are a joy all year round.  There are some fabulous circular walks but we think there's something particularly satisfying about catching a bus from Mousehole and walking back in (especially if your walk exits the village in a north of westerly direction; you'll soon discover the town is nestled at the bottom of a very steep hill!)  Read our blog on Mousehole Walks.

Mousehole Sea Salts & Sail Festival

Taking place every two years, this maritime festival celebrates Mousehole's fishing heritage with traditional sailing boat races and many other activities and entertainment for the whole family. 2014 was the festival's tenth biennial festival, taking place on the 11th, 12th & 13th July.  Read our blog post from the event here: Sea Salts and Sail Festival.

A brief history of Mousehole

Today Mousehole is beautiful and welcoming holiday destination This popular holiday destination has seen more than its fair share of hardtimes tragedy over the years.

The Quay was built in 1392, holding the harbour like a pair of protective arms. Fishing was always important to Mousehole. These days there are fewer boats fishing from the village but there is an active fishing fleet operating out of nearby Newlyn, a town worth a visit on its own account. Read more about the History of Mousehole on our blog.

Things to do near Mousehole

Venture near or far, with Newlyn, Porthcurno and Marazion all within a short drive or the cobbled streets of St Ives and the surfing beach of Sennen a little further away. Visit Penzance town to do some light shopping or head to Jubilee Pool to cool down after a long day of exploring. Wherever you want to go, our Mousehole self catering cottages make an ideal base from which to explore the towns and villages of West Cornwall.

Tom Bawcock's Eve, Mousehole

The tradition of Tom Bawcock comes from the feast or famine lifestyle of Cornwall.  The story goes that it was just before Christmas; there had been no fish for weeks, the boats couldn’t get out into the raging storm, the village was starving. One man, Tom Bawcock, dared to take his boat out of the harbour’s safety. He returned with enough fish to make fish pie for the whole village. 

Today, a festival takes place each year to celebrate Tom Bawcock's bravery. During the festival, Star Gazey pies are eaten in memory of this famous event.

We had a wonderful week staying at Fishermans Square, what a fantastic location. The cottage was immaculate and was equipped with everything we needed. Even though it was October we sat outside in the mornings to see a beautiful sunrise. We would love to return!

Fabulous location right on the water's edge. Simply the best spot we have ever stayed in at Mousehole. Spent many enjoyable hours just watching the harbour change both with the tides and weather. Very comfy property with a slighy quirky but totally fascinating decor.
