The property is excellent, really faultless and a lovely place to come back to after a big day out. By far the best place we’ve ever stayed at.

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.
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.
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.
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.

21st December 2018
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 are so sorry that there were so many problems with the boiler during your stay at St Clements. The team had tried to get this rectified as quickly as possible, but we understand how frustrating and inconvenient this would have been. I can see that Holly has been in touch with you since to apologise for this unfortunate situation, and again we would like to say how sorry we are that this was not the usual relaxing and stress free experience that you are used to at St Clements. Tanya, Customer Services
We were totally satisfied with just about everything at this property.

Miss Morgan September 2018
Fantastic apartment with stunning views of Mousehole and the coastline. Equipped to the highest standard and the wine, prosecco and cream tea were a lovely touch. The view from the front of the property is absolutely amazing and a lovely place to sit and watch the world go by. We also took advantage of the parking permit offered by Aspects Holidays which allowed us to park in the Primary School yard and took all the stress of finding parking within Mousehole - well worth £30. We recommend a stay here and we hope to be back very soon. Great service from Aspects Holidays too.
Mrs Carter July 2018
A wonderful apartment to spend our holidays.
Mrs Thompson June 2018
Superb location and amazing views. Very comfortable accommodation and a great place to relax.
Mr Wimhurst May 2018
Probably one of the best holiday apartments available in Mousehole -and the comfort platform was excellent -no reason for stress ....and the privacy was appreciated ....
Mr Trenbath January 2018
An apartment with one of the best views in Cornwall in such a pretty village. Views over the harbour across Mounts Bay further to the Lizard. Never a dull moment. Boats coming and going in the harbour, seals on St.Clements island, gannets diving into the sea with the Scillonian ferry passingby. If your lucky experience the Penlee lifeboat on exercise perhaps with jointly with the coastguard helicopter.
Mr Kingshott January 2018
Outstanding view of harbour. Having SKY TV was also a huge bonus during our stay over Christmas. A very luxurious, well equipped apartment - it was very hard to leave !
Mrs Yeardley December 2017
Shines like a diamond!!
Mr Karkeek December 2017
Absolutely fantastic place to stay.
Mousehole is a great village to stay in and St Clements Apartment just puts the star on the tree.
Just don't choose our week
Mr Mills October 2017
With out doubt the best positioned apartment in Mousehole.. Stunning interior with top spec furnishings and equipment. We didn't want to leave.
Mrs Ufton August 2017
We had a brilliant holiday. Mousehole is so quaint and pretty. Our apartment exceeded our expectations and the views from the living areas are exceptional. Immaculately kept with the best quality appliances. The fresh flowers and cream tea on arrival, were a lovely touch too. We had an amazing time and we will be back - thanks to everyone at Aspects.
Mrs Carter June 2017
We had the most wonderful week staying in St Clements. The most beautiful views across the harbour and out to mounts bay. Would most definitely recommend staying here.
Mrs Franklin April 2017
Despite wanting to keep this a secret location, this is the best accomodation and quality of facilities we've experienced in mousehole across the eight visits made and the views of the harbour and coastline are outstanding
Mrs Loftus March 2017
St Clements shines like a diamond
Mr Karkeek December 2016
St. Clements Apartment is such a relaxing place to stay.
We can't praise it highly enough as long as you don't want to take our week.
Mr Mills October 2016
With views to die for, St Clements has a prime location and is without a doubt one of the best holidays we have enjoyed.
Mr Croxon October 2016
This is a fantastic apartment in a wonderful location. The owners have taken great care in furnishing the apartment and the result is simply stunning! We'd love to make a return visit.
Ms McDonald April 2016
Couldn't ask for more, a fantastic apartment in a stunning location. Owners have thought of everything you need to make your stay comfortable. The red roses and wine was a lovely touch for Valentines. A huge thank you for helping to make our week memorable .
Andy and Diane
Mr Powell February 2016
It's brilliant
Mrs Byrne January 2016
We absolutely loved our week at St Clements over Christmas. I can't praise it enough. The view from the kitchen window and main living area was magical - seeing the harbour lights come on each afternoon, watching gannets fishing off the rocks first thing, the waves crashing over the harbour wall - wonderful. The standard of kitchen equipment is extremely high and we were easily able to make cakes and cook the Christmas dinner here, as well as entertain the rest of our family who were staying at the apartment below (Harbours Reach) - because the sofa and armahciars were ample for 7 people, and there was enough kitchen crockery etc. The bed (main bedroom) was really comfortable with luxurious duvet, and the whole apartment was warm, bright and exceptionally clean. It was a very special Christmas, and a lovely place to celebrate one of our party's very special birthday on Chstrmas Eve! However - not a place to stay if you are overw eight or unfit or have any sort of disability, as it involves two flights of stairs - which we were very happy to run up and down and added to the charm!
Dr Rigby December 2015
We have nothing but the highest praise for the apartment. A thoughtful welcome pack.The property is warm, cosy and spacious. All the rooms have been fitted out to a very high standard. The location is marvellous with wonderful views onto the harbour and beyond. Despite the damp weather (fairly normal for November) we had a lovely, relaxing week in unspoilt Mousehole. Will definitely be looking to visit again.
Mr Mills November 2015
Beautiful apartment excellant views in the centre of Mousehole yet hidden away what more could you ask for.
Mr Mills October 2015
A perfect holiday property. A beautiful location and a property that helps you to soak up the views and tranquility.
Mr Frost October 2015
St Clements is an amazing apartment in an idyllic location. The apartment is so well furnished & equipped with everything you could wish for. I loved cooking in the kitchen looking out at the fantastic view. A real retreat from all the stresses of everyday life! Second visit & won't be the last.
