Explore Mousehole & Beyond
From harbourside dining to legendary landmarks — all within easy reach.
Just a mile up the coast from Mousehole, Newlyn is one of the largest working fishing ports in England - and one of the most rewarding and authentic places to visit in the whole of West Cornwall.

One of the great short walks of West Cornwall, the coastal path from Mousehole to Lamorna Cove is the kind of walk that reminds you exactly why this corner of England is so special. Approximately three miles one way along the South West Coast Path, it offers granite cliffs, startlingly turquoise water, and sweeping views across Mount's Bay for much of the route - and it begins, for guests at Polvellan Heights, practically from the doorstep.

Few pubs or hotels in Cornwall can claim a position quite like The Godolphin Arms. Sitting directly on the Marazion waterfront with St Michael's Mount framed perfectly in the windows, it is one of those rare places where the setting alone is worth the visit - before a single plate has arrived or a glass has been poured.

Few performance venues anywhere in the world can rival the Minack Theatre - an open-air amphitheatre carved by hand from the granite clifftop above Porthcurno Bay, with the full sweep of the Atlantic Ocean as its permanent and breathtaking backdrop. It is, quite simply, one of those places that has to be seen to be believed.

Perched above the southern end of Mousehole harbour with extraordinary views stretching across Mount's Bay, The Old Coastguard is widely regarded as one of the finest restaurants in West Cornwall - and it's not difficult to understand why. This small, beautifully run hotel and restaurant has a quiet confidence about it that speaks of a place that knows exactly what it is and does it exceptionally well.

There are few places in England quite like Land's End. The most westerly point on the British mainland, this dramatic granite headland is where the Atlantic finally meets the cliffs of West Cornwall in a spectacle that never quite loses its power - no matter how many times you've seen it, or what the weather is doing when you arrive.

Rising dramatically from the middle of Mount's Bay, St Michael's Mount is one of the most iconic and instantly recognisable sights in all of West Cornwall. This extraordinary tidal island topped by a medieval castle and priory that seem almost impossibly perched above the sea - is one of those places that genuinely lives up to its reputation.

Just a short, flat walk from Polvellan Heights along the harbourside path, Mousehole's compact harbour beach is a genuine delight - and one of those understated coastal gems that guests return to again and again throughout their stay.

CULTURE
Carved by hand from the granite clifftop above Porthcurno Bay by the remarkable Rowena Cade and her gardener in the 1930s, the Minack Theatre is one of the most extraordinary and singular performance venues anywhere in Britain. The stone terracing descends in tiers to an open stage poised directly above the Atlantic, with the sea serving as both backdrop and occasional scene-stealer - particularly on summer evenings, when the light turns the water from deep blue to gold as the first act draws to a close. There is genuinely nowhere quite like it, and for guests staying in luxury apartment accommodation in Mousehole, Cornwall, it is just twenty minutes away along quiet Cornish lanes.

SEASONAL
There are few more magical sights in the whole of Cornwall than Mousehole harbour on a December evening. The famous Christmas lights - tracing intricate and luminous scenes across the harbour walls, boats, and buildings - have been a cherished local tradition since 1963, when the local RNLI branch first strung simple bulbs above the water. Today they are one of the most visited and most loved seasonal events in the entire West Country, drawing thousands of visitors each year to this tiny village on the edge of the Atlantic.

FOOD & DRINK
Walk north along the coast path from Mousehole for twenty minutes and you arrive in Newlyn - a working fishing port on a scale that genuinely surprises most first-time visitors. The harbour is vast, the boats are numerous, and on weekday mornings the quayside fish market handles hundreds of tonnes of freshly landed catch destined for restaurants across the length and breadth of Britain. It is a world away from the tourist Cornwall of cream teas and gift shops, and all the more fascinating, authentic, and rewarding for it. For guests staying in luxury apartment accommodation in Mousehole, Cornwall, it is also one of the easiest and most worthwhile walks of any stay.

FOOD & DRINK
Despite its size - a handful of narrow lanes, a working harbour, and a population that wouldn't fill a modest concert hall - Mousehole punches well above its weight when it comes to dining. The village's two flagship restaurants have earned national recognition, and the combination of freshly caught Atlantic seafood, locally grown Cornish produce, and genuinely warm hospitality makes eating out here a real and lasting pleasure. For guests staying in luxury apartment accommodation in Mousehole, Cornwall, exceptional food is never more than a short walk away.

HERITAGE
On a clear day from the terrace at Polvellan Heights, the silhouette of St Michael's Mount is unmistakable - the medieval castle perched atop a rocky island rising dramatically from the middle of Mount's Bay, connected to the mainland by a granite causeway that disappears beneath the sea at high tide. It is one of the most extraordinary and iconic sights in the whole of Britain, and at just four miles from our luxury apartment accommodation in Mousehole, Cornwall, it is also one of the most easily accessible highlights of any stay on this stretch of the Cornish coast.

SEASONAL
