About this property

Stylish and cosy cottage in the centre of Mousehole close to the harbour

  • The Courtyard is a stylish hideaway for two, moments from Mousehole’s beautiful harbour. This completely renovated former fisherman’s cottage has been stunningly furnished with a mix of modern and vintage finds along with a few antique treasures. The subtle muted decor creates a relaxed atmosphere whilst throughout the focus is firmly on understated luxury. In the spacious bathroom there is a deep roll-top bath, separate power-shower enclosure, underfloor heating and lots of thick, fluffy, white towels. The bedroom has a king-size bed, 400 thread count White Company bedding, antique chandelier, and spacious wardrobe with iron/ironing board and plenty of hanging space. The kitchen is equipped with a Nespresso coffee machine, cafetiere, Dualit and Neff appliances, induction hob and cooker, fridge, dishwasher and washing machine. There is also a dining table for two. The lounge is furnished with carefully sourced pieces such as a large mirror from France, a vintage leather club chair, new comfy sofa and a cosy wood-burner for chilly nights. Outside the pretty plant-filled courtyard is the perfect place for a morning coffee or for a glass of something chilled as sun goes down.

Fantastic Mousehole!

Absolutely wonderful! Lovely little row house literally a couple dozen steps from the shops and harbour. Clean, stylishly appointed (loved the Anglepoise lamp). Big bathroom, comfy bed, perfect for a couples stay! Mousehole is a great little village, a much nicer vibe than St. Ives or Penzance. If you’re going drive in from Penzance along the Cliff Rd, the other approach is TIGHT. Get parked in the town lot and leave your car, take the Mousehole bus to Penzance and the Coaster to travel around the area.

Mousehole Courtyard Cottage

Property is in a great location in Mousehole and is adequate for two people for one week. The property was generally clean and well kept, however, the settee did have a distinct smell of dogs. Although well appointed, we felt the cottage lacked some furniture for daily practical usage such as the bedside tables were too small, there were limited units for placing items on and the bathroom lacked a unit for placing toilet bags on, etc. The biggest problem with the cottage was the lack of onsite parking. The filter on the VRBO site was set to show only properties with parking available, however this property still showed up! We booked the property based on this but it is incorrect so it meant we had to park in the Pay & Display car parks in Mousehole. Spaces are limited and overnight parking can add a significant cost to your holiday. Hopefully VRBO will resolve this issue but it would be wise to double check. Overall we did enjoy the holiday, Mousehole is a lovely harbor village and the location is great for seeing the southern part of Cornwall. The Minack Theatre, Porthcurno Museum and Cove, Newlyn and Penzance were all highlights of a good week.

Great Base

Lovely stay in Mousehole... launched our hiking and biking to Lamorna, Minack theatre, Senen beach, the Lizard and more. With global warming house could use a fan and more surfaces to place things (luggage, glasses, feet up etc). Overall had everthing we need. The seagulls kept up awake, they live right with (above) you!:-)

Outstanding

One of the nicest private rentals we've ever stayed! Modern, clean, and updated but with an absolute sense of place. When I visit a unique area I want the place I sleep to reflect that but also have modern convenience. This hit all the marks. Angela was very responsive and easy to communicate with. The tub was welcome after our long hike as was the washer. Ideally located right in the village which made it easy to pop in/out. Bed wasn't great for us but none of the mattresses on this trip were. We're very spoiled in the US with our sleep number bed :-) Highly recommend staying here. We can't wait to visit this property again.

Mousehole Cornwall Cottage

Loved the cozy cottage! Bathroom and bedroom much larger than they appear. Everything you need is there. Short walk to bus stop, deli, harbor. Many places to eat, but most close by 4 pm. The steps to bed/bath, are steep, something to keep in mind after all the hiking around town. ;) The seagulls are loud, so bring earplugs for a good nights sleep in the comfy bed. Penzance train station is a 16 min bus ride away. I walked back from Penzance after a shopping trip. It was a leisurely 1 hour and 15 minutes. You walk through Newlyn, which has many seafood shops, and of course a few Pubs. Angela is a Gracious Hostess, who responds to you quickly, if you have any questions. Loved my time in Cornwall.

A beautiful Cute Cottage, but checked out after one sleepless night :(

The cottage is delightful. It is beautifully renovated and the finish in each room is very high quality. However the bed is such a disappointment. The mattress and bedding are lovely - again very high quality..but the bed base is similar to the one I bought for my 8 year old daughter from Argos. It is thin, white washed pine, and it creaks and squeaks with EVERY move you make! Even adjusting your pillow. I spent the night on the sofa, listening to the squeaky bed through the ceiling above me. Apart from putting the mattress onto the floor, there was no way to improve the situation, so sadly, we checked out first thing the next morning and stayed in a hotel that night. The owner was very responsive when we messaged to say we had checked out because of the bed, but said she would have preferred us to let her come over and see if she could have rectified the situation, which is fair enough, but unless she was going to replace the bed base, there was nothing that would have persuaded us to risk another night with no sleep I'm afraid.

Perfect location in Mousehole

Everything was lovely, perfect location, Angela’s recommendations for F&B were great! My only suggestion would be to perhaps add a “cocktail/coffee” table in the lounge area for those of us who need somewhere to put all our “stuff”. 😊

Cute little cottage for two

This was perfect for our 6 nights in Mousehole and it was just what we expected from the listing. The bed was very comfortable and the kitchen was equipped with everything we needed for cooking breakfasts and dinners. It was a short walk to the harbour and the bus stop.
