About this property
The views of the Bay from the sitting room in this fabulous detached property are breathtaking, and can be enjoyed at all times of the year with the luxury of full central heating and a log burner. The sitting room has a dining table at one end with a large open glass serving hatch to enable the chef to marvel at the views at the same time as cooking in the well equipped kitchen. There is a double, a twin and a family bathroom on the living floor. A real bonus is that there is a further double bedroom with a modern shower room and further sitting area downstairs, which has it's own access to the patio and garden. Off road parking for one car is a real treat in Mousehole, and yet the property is within easy walking distance of the village amenities and harbour. The Old Coastguard At Christmas it is the focal point for the famous Mousehole Christmas Lights when the village is illuminated by over 7,000 bulbs. Mousehole is an ideal location from which to explore the Lands End peninsula; walk the south west coast path, surf the waves at Sennen, learn to sail in Marazion or explore the old tin mines perched dramatically on the cliffs below Pendeen. The white sands of Porthcurno, Porthgwarra, Sennen and St Ives should satisfy beach goers whilst garden lovers will be kept happy with a trip to Trengwainton, famous for the early spring blooms of rhododendrons and camellias. For an evening to remember, take a picnic, a blanket and enjoy a moonlit play the Minack Theatre, but be sure to book ahead. The glittering sea as a backdrop, is simply magical!
A delightful fishing village nestled on a hillside and spilling down to the shore. The picturesque harbour, surrounded by its maze of winding narrow streets, draws visitors from miles around, while in the distance St Michael's Mount stands proudly in the centre of Mounts Bay.

Very cute home with cool view. Great having dishwashing tabs, dish washing liquid and clothes washing powder supplied, but odd body wash and facecloths were not, and less than 1 roll of toilet paper in each loo supplied.

The pictures donât quite do the view justice. The property was as described. There were a few very minor issues (the cold tap in the upstairs bathroom was loose and there was a hole in the floorboards in the upstairs double) but nothing that would put me off staying again. Check in was super easy and we had everything we needed as a home away from home here. The location is prime for sightseeing and Mousehole is a wonderful place! Thank you for your hospitality and thanks to Sarah for sending the bits we left behind.

The views are breathtaking. Wooton Gray its a great house in the charming village of Mousehole. The house is very comfortable with a scandi feel. We had everything we need for a lovely week. Having a parking space is a big plus in Mousehole and Cornwall in general. Great area for touring around and there's plenty to see. Loved it!
