Staff were lovely, especially the delightful lady at breakfast. Situated right in front of the harbour and an easy walk around the town. We were able to park easily. Unfortunately, our room was not clean, the main light was not working and the shower was also not functioning properly.

Wonderful spot with room overlooking boats in harbor. Above the pub, so can be a bit noisy until pub closes if windows are open. Very friendly staff. Wonderful place.

comfy base to explore Cornwall

Right on the harbor in charming Mousehole, we had a front row seat on Cornish life--people swimming, kids jumping off the harbor wall, and walking on the SW Coastal Path. Cooked breakfast was excellent and hearty, and there were a variety of god restaurants in Mousehole and nearby Newlyn. Our room was quiet and well appointed with a spacious bathroom. The room could get warm so the fan was appreciated. One night we parked in the car park closest (about 200 meters, 5BP for 24 hours) and one night found free parking just outside town on the street. Delightful!
