Cosy Christmas Break
Lovely little traditional cottage right in the heart of Mousehole. The harbour lights are lovely and well worth a visit. Word of advice if you come over the Christmas period - don’t try and park around 5pm when the lights are switched on - it’s chaos!

A lovely little cottage
We really enjoyed our stay in Gull’s Nest. The cottage is cosy and comfortable. Very close to good eating places. We managed very well but it is a pity the shower facility is not more conventional. Other than that - perfect.

Lovely cottage and great location!
This little cottage was so lovely! Spotlessly clean, it had everything we needed for our short stay. The beds were comfortable and rooms were light and airy. It is only a short walk to the harbour and all the shops. Across the street from the cottage is the community hall where the farmers’ market and craft fairs were held. We would highly recommend this vacation property. When you’re in the area, don’t hesitate to go to Manick Theatre and to the beach/museum in Porthcurno. Hiking around Land’s End had spectacular views!
