Mousehole: West Cornwall Village

Mousehole is a wonderful hamlet situated in West Cornwall, in between Land’s End and Penzance, with a perfect beach for family days out. Mousehole was burnt down in the 14th century by Spanish invaders leaving one house untouched, which still stands today. It has wonderful cottage homes and is one of England’s most beautiful settings.

Dorothy Pentreath of Mousehole some 400 years ago was reported to have been the last known fluent speaker of the Cornish language. In fact, some claim she could only speak Cornish.

We had a wonderful day in Mousehole; all the better as it was a warm sunny summer day. This is a truly idyllic location and once you visit you will for sure want to return again.

Mousehole is a gorgeous location where one can stay close by, in the many holiday cottages available. Cornwall’s finest cottages, some of which are holiday cottages quite near to such a stunning location.

Cornwall cottage owners are very friendly to visitors, who arrive at these shores, countryside, beaches, monuments and historical sites; many visitors tend to discover so much of Cornwall’s most amazing and beautiful locations. There are many cottages to select from, throughout the whole of Cornwall; making Cornwall a superb place to embark on a journey of discovery of coastal resorts, theme parks and other interesting venues. I would recommend that you rent a quaint cottage, which would boost the whole family experience of this historical corner of Cornwall.
