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.
During your stay at this cottage, you're just a quick walk from Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Enjoy your stay with amenities like a kitchen and a fireplace in the cottage.

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.

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.

Excellent visit in Mousehole
This property exceeded our expectations! Angela is an excellent host and The Courtyard is a delightful property. We enjoyed walks in the village each morning as well as accessibility to everything nearby. The cottage is warm, inviting, and beautifully decorated. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

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.

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”. 😊

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.

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.

A Week to explore
Beautiful centrally located cottage. Sunny aspect, sun at the front in the morning and in the shared courtyard to the rear Extremely well equipped, luxury towels and bedding Plenty of storage space, extremely comfortable bed and a wonderful huge bathroom with double shower and a deep claw foot bath We cooked in quite a few nights and we had everything that we needed We had 2 meals in Mousehole. One at The Ship Inn with friends who were also staying in the area. This was very reasonable, great service and great food. We also had a meal at 2ForeSt, ate outside, again, great service and the food was amazing. We had fresh croissants and cakes from the deli a couple of minutes away Parking was ok as we managed to get spaces in the Quayside car park which is £3 for 24 hours Angela was extremely helpful prior to our arrival and the cottage was spotless A lovely week exploring this glorious area and were quite lucky with the weather
