Head way down West and arrive in postcard perfect Mousehole, one of Cornwall’s most romantic fishing villages, where winding lanes, granite cottages and a glittering harbour create an idyllic setting by the sea.
Stunning Gull Cottage is perched right on the water’s edge, with impeccably designed interiors, elegant finishes and sweeping ocean views that make every moment feel special.
Romantic and dog friendly, this beautifully styled retreat is perfectly placed for exploring charming Mousehole, with its independent shops, cosy pubs, inviting restaurants and timeless Cornish character.
From sun-filled summer days to December evenings when the famous Mousehole Harbour Lights shimmer across the harbour, every season here brings its own kind of magic.
After a morning spent watching the tide ebb and flow, step outside with your four-legged companion and stroll to the sandy beach, bustling harbour and heart of the village in seconds.

Step Inside
Step through your holiday door and you are welcomed into the beautiful dining and kitchen area on the ground floor, where the charm of this traditional fisherman’s cottage is immediately felt.
Full of character and cleverly arranged across three floors, this traditional fisherman’s cottage offers an intimate, cosy feel rather than vast proportions - all part of its authentic charm.
The dining table is ideally placed in front of the sea facing window - just as perfect for your Summer breakfast as it is for wave watching over a Winter supper.
The unique patterned floor in fresh blue and warm neutrals leads into the kitchen, and hints at the creative design that awaits.
A fine fit for any budding chef, the modern kitchen makes cooking a joy.
Stroll down to the harbour front to collect the freshest of seafood, and cook up a feast.
Even the washing up is made enjoyable; the stunning deep gold sink and tap match the thoughtful touches throughout.
Heading up the staircase to the first floor, natural light streams into the serene bedroom.
Tune into the Roberts radio, sink into the luxury linens and lose yourself in the view once again. In the statement ensuite, the luxury continues with the waterfall shower - a treat for sandy toes and salty hair!
Ascend again to the second floor, where the inviting living room is an uplifting space in which to relax, snuggle up by the log fire with a book from the thoughtful collection, or watch the comings and goings of harbour life from the chair by the window.
On Your Doorstep
In your holiday front garden, outdoor seating is perfectly positioned for soaking up the incredible sea and harbour views.
St Michael's Mount can be seen just off the Marazion coast, along with St Clements Isle; a rocky islet that is often a sanctuary for seagulls and seals.
Watch the bobbing boats bringing in the catch of the day as you breathe in the salty breeze.
During the festive season, Mousehole Harbour is transformed by its famous harbour lights, illuminating the water and creating a magical atmosphere right on your doorstep.
With its way down West location, Mousehole epitomises the classic Cornish idyll; wiggling alleyways, a buzzing harbour front and plenty of independent shops to nose around.
Dawdle away your days in this beautiful village, or if a day trip is on the agenda, head to Penzance and walk the cobbled causeway to St Michael's Mount.
This castle is riddled with myth and legend, and is a memorable day out for the whole family.
If you can bear to leave Gull Cottage for dinner, The Old Coastguard is a favourite in Cornwall and serves plenty of fresh seafood as you might have guessed!
Iconic coastal towns of St Ives and Falmouth are all within easy driving distance of Gull Cottage.
