WE ARE NOT A DOG/PET FRIENDLY INN. In the market town of Penzance, The Longboat Inn is right opposite Penzance Train Station and a 5-minute walk from the beach.
Have known Mousehole for 50yrs. Originally wonderful quaint fishing village, but life changes. Now a local said only 6 families are left. In winter it's mainly empty holiday accommodation but the pub is friendly with good food, and a walk round is rewarding. Builders renovating arrive about 9 a.m. Even the wonderful Lobster Pot restaurant is now accommodation. Even so, it's quiet and charming out of season and I would recommend a weekend.
Check the history of the lifeboat. The BBC Radio 4 version is the most gripping broadcast I have ever experienced.

Wondering around Mousehole's maze of streets is a joy, during the day, and at night. There are some great places to eat, especially if you like seafood. From Mousehole, you can walk to Newlyn, or take the coastal path to Lamorna. Or take a walk up to Paul Church.

Beautiful village with a lovely harbour.
Beautiful village with a lovely harbour. We were there in January so a lot of places were closed down for refurbishment. However, when they are open you can get an amazing meal at The Old Coastguard and lots of lovely fresh produce from The Deli on the harbour front. Also The Orange Cafe is a great place to eat.

I loved our time here and wish it could have been for longer. The staff was lovely , our room was even better than I hoped, the food and amenities were all super. Only drawback was the parking and I don’t think there’s much to be done about that 🤷🏼♀️.

Mousehole is an ideal location to access the coastal pathway; the walk Westward is stunning and varied. The village itself has enough little restaurants to suit different tastes and budgets; it is definitely worth booking in advance. A stroll around the village doesn't take long but worth it - look out for the 'last house standing' after the Spanish raid and also take the 5 minute walk to see the Penlee lifeboat station to learn about the disaster in 1981. A moving and humbling experience.

Great ‘foodie’ restaurants and a pub for simpler food all...
Great ‘foodie’ restaurants and a pub for simpler food all with great atmosphere. Local bands play in pub and hotel. Cafes and shops but not too many. Walks in every direction. Sheltered harbour good for jumping in and swimming ( when tide in). Families love beach there for kids. Spectacular views from coast path
The cottage was beautiful! Fresh flowers on the table, tea, Cornwall apple juice and biscuits. Beds were comfortable. Towels big and thick! The outside front porch was warm and comfortable. Mousehole is a wonderful little town! We were lucky to attend The Sea, Salt and Sail festival! Loads of friendly people! Comfortable and relaxing. The hosts were friendly and quick to offer good restaurants and things to do! Our month long trip traveling the UK has been enriched by spending time in Cornwall and the lovely cottage. Just wonderful!
Fab place really close to the harbour, lovely communication with the hosts, who are clearly paying a lot of attention to all the details that matter! If you are planning to come by car you need to be a reasonably confident driver - the roads in Mousehole are tiny and parking is on the actual harbour wall, it's very tight and the stones on the harbour wall are pretty uneven, as clearly.not originally meant for cars. This is all as expected for Cornwall. We'll definitely be back.
Tracey, who runs the B&B, was really helpful and nothing was too much trouble. The garden room was very comfortable with good en-suite shower room, and separate entrance . Everything was spotless and there were some nice touches such as the fresh wild flowers. Tea, coffee and biscuits were supplied daily. The B&B is situated in the centre of Mousehole, so very close to all facilities. Breakfast was excellent with a very good choice, high quality and delicious.
Location was perfect. We know Mousehole very well & this is easily the best location we’ve stayed in & the sea views were amazing. Shower was brilliant - immediately hot & powerful. Loved the neighbours tortoise too !! It is an absolutely stunning fisherman’s cottage. I cried when we left it !! Hope to stay there again.
This was in a great location right in the harbour of Mousehole and cosy great for a couples and friends , bus just outside that’s had a regular service all over the surrounding areas . TV and services were great when we stayed in and local pub so close called the Ship Inn , and deli and lovely restaurants too !
Cobbles Loft is in a great location just off the harbour side and close to restaurants and amenities. It was beautifully clean, well appointed and very welcoming with tea, coffee, milk and biscuits provided on arrival. The apartment had been decorated for the festive season which was a lovely touch.
The only thing that was wrong for me and my dogs was that Mousehole is no way dog friendly.
Dogs are not allowed anywhere near the sea or harbour, it seemed the only use for the harbour was for sea gulls and pigeons to wash in. However the staff were exemplary they helped me in every way possible.
Really enjoyed our stay , great location for Mousehole harbour and walks into Newlyn / Penzance . Accommodation modern and very well presented, Lovely Views with added bonus of Parking . Would Definitely Consider Booking this property again , loved it.
The cottage is centrally located so good for accessing restaurants etc in Mousehole. It has all the facilities in the cottage you need including a washer/dryer. It’s small inside one up and one down but perfect as a base just for two.
Everyone at the Ship Inn was so friendly and welcoming. We really felt at home here. The room was comfortable and warm, the food was delicious, and the friendliness of the staff was the best of all.
It was as good as staying in an hotel. The breakfast was better than any hotel breakfast I have had, with the added bonus of personal service and several of options to choose from.
