About this property

Stunning Cottage by Mousehole Harbour - with Courtyard. Steps to the Beach!


Escape to our beautifully restored, white-washed fisherman's cottage. Quietly tucked away in the centre of this unspoiled coastal village, it's a fabulous retreat for couples or families seeking a luxury break just steps from the harbour, beaches, galleries and Mousehole's best places to eat and drink.

Blending character with comfort, stylish interiors and high quality furnishings, 1 Wellington Place is perfect for couples or families seeking a memorable Cornish getaway.

With a private sunny courtyard and a large inglenook with wood burner, it's perfect for all seasons.

Full fibre broadband and a homeworking area make it ideal for those who need to work whilst away.


Summary:

Cook up a feast in the luxury kitchen with premium range cooker, dine alfresco in the private courtyard, or curl up by the cozy inglenook fireplace with wood burner – 1 Wellington Place is a perfect Cornish retreat in every season.

Sip a local ale in a traditional pub or enjoy fresh seafood at award-winning restaurants dotted around the picture postcard harbour – all less than a minute’s stroll away. You’ll also find two safe sandy beaches for little ones to paddle and build sandcastles, plus a variety of cafés and independent galleries to explore.

For the something more active, Mousehole sits on the famous South West Coast Path with breathtaking walks and views. For a gentler pace relax in one of the independent cafes, browse the village’s shops and galleries, or hop on the frequent bus from the harbour into trendy Newlyn and Penzance.

Stunning beaches at Porthcurno, Sennen and Carbis Bay are all within easy reach, making this the perfect base for exploring West Cornwall.


Living Space:

The spacious yet cozy sitting room is full of character, featuring exposed beams, an original window seat, and inglenook fireplace with wood burner. It flows seamlessly into the brand-new luxury kitchen diner, where patio doors open onto the private sunny courtyard.

The kitchen is fully equipped for culinary adventures, including a premium Bertazzoni range cooker with induction hob, large fridge, dishwasher, washer-dryer, microwave, toaster, kettle, and cafetière. The dining table comfortably seats four guests.
A separate cozy snug provides an additional retreat with exposed beams, a feature (non-working) fireplace, sofa, and window seat. Complete with an antique bureau and full-fibre broadband, it doubles as a perfect workspace for those having to combine work and leisure.

There are two bright and spacious bedrooms: one a large double and one a twin which can be configured as a king-size bed on request) making it deal for couples or families alike. A sumptuous bathroom features luxury fittings, including a roll-top bath with overhead mains-pressure shower – a real treat.

The cottage is centrally heated throughout and includes a wood-burning stove, with logs provided for your first fire from October to March.


Outside:

1 Wellington Place enjoys a private sunny courtyard, perfect for a leisurely breakfast, evening drinks, or alfresco dining. A spacious, secure undercover area with side access keeps bikes, kayaks, and adventure gear safe.

At the front of the cottage, a charming vintage bench is the perfect spot to sip your morning coffee and watch Mousehole slowly wake up.
