Crab Cottage - a cottage that sleeps 2 guests in 1 bedroom
Crab Cottage is a beautifully renovated, superbly spacious pet-friendly home with gorgeous furnishings and a fabulous garden. A lovely master bedroom with double bed and an en-suite bathroom rest on the lower ground floor. Upstairs, the living room is both tastefully styled and comfortably furnished, with a wood-burning stove and underfloor heating for the cooler months. French doors open out to the attractive tiered garden which creates that all-important indoor/outdoor living, and a spacious kitchen/diner off the lounge is fully equipped for home cooking and entertaining.
The garden's lower terrace is furnished with an outdoor suite so you can while away the hours in the sunshine, with a bench on the top patio being the perfect place to sit and enjoy a glass of bubbly while watching the sun set over the sea.
Characterised by narrow winding lanes, granite cottages and sparkling views over the bay, Mousehole is a magical place which, for its size, has a surprising number of excellent eateries, lifestyle shops and galleries. The postcard-perfect harbour is a couple of minutes' walk from the cottage and here you can enjoy a refreshing sea swim, sunbathing or a stroll along the seawall with an ice-cream. For farther-flung adventure, Mounts Bay offers plenty to do and see, with Marazion's big sandy beach and St Michael's Mount being just 20 minutes by car, and the wonderful Porthcurno and The Minack Theatre being just 25 minutes' drive.
1 pet accepted: Please advise the Luxury Coastal team directly if you would like us to host your pet after completing your booking. A charge of £40 per pet per stay/week will be applicable and required before your stay. We will arrange and invoice with you directly upon booking confirmation.

We had a lovely stay at Crab cottage. Excellent location in Mousehole, just behind the harbour, steps away from the sea and with sea glimpses from the terraced garden. Beautifully appointed cottage, spacious and comfortable. So many great places to eat and drink in Mousehole and with easy reach of Newlyn and Penzance. We enjoyed walks along the coast path to Lamorna Cove and beyond. A perfect stay.

Lovely stay in a perfect location
We loved Crab Cottage, and we loved Mousehole. Well-equipped, stylish and comfortable, the cottage was perfect for resting after our busy days out and about. It is quiet and peaceful, no traffic noise at all. Mousehole as a location is idyllic - not much going on, but that's the attraction! There are a couple of great pubs, cafes and restaurants, enough to enjoy for the week we stayed. Lots of great walks close-by for us and our dog. Parking takes a little consideration, but is not the huge drama it is made out to be. The large car park just outside of town always had space, so we were never stuck.
