Description
The accommodation is full of character, with the sitting room providing a comfortable and atmospheric main living space, centred around a wood-burning stove and arranged to make the most of the outlook. Beyond, a spacious dining hall creates a sociable central space within the house and connects through to the well-appointed kitchen, where a traditional range cooker sits naturally within the room.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom enjoys particularly fine views across Mousehole Harbour, while the second bedroom provides comfortable guest accommodation. A family bathroom completes the internal layout.
Taken together, The Old Post Office offers a rare opportunity to acquire a distinctive harbourside cottage in one of Cornwall’s most recognisable coastal villages, combining history, outlook and proven holiday letting appeal in an exceptional setting.
Location - Mousehole is one of Cornwall’s most distinctive harbour villages, known for its narrow granite lanes, traditional cottages and sheltered harbour on the edge of Mount’s Bay. Despite its popularity, it retains a strong sense of place and an atmosphere deeply rooted in its fishing heritage.
The village offers a good choice of cafés, pubs and restaurants, together with galleries, small independent shops and immediate access to the water. It also has a strong year-round community and remains one of the county’s most recognisable coastal settings.
The wider area is equally appealing. Nearby Penzance provides a broader range of amenities and a mainline rail connection, while Marazion, St Michael’s Mount, Newlyn and St Ives are all within easy reach. Coastal walking, sea swimming and access to beaches are all part of everyday life in this part of west Cornwall.
