Beautifully presented, spacious house (the photos don’t do it justice), within less than 10 mins downhill walk into the stunning village of Mousehole. Parking was always available either in front of the house, or slightly further up the road or in the adjoining village hall car park. Stephanie was very quick to respond to any queries we had. Great garden space for out door dining, and very large kitchen table to seat 8 people comfortably. Highly recommend this place and we hope to return some day.

Picture perfect cottage.
What I imagined a ‘cottage’ to be - really homely and quaint and cute; the owners have decorated it in keeping with its style. It’s not perfect - had a bit of damp and bits and bobs need a bit of tlc - but the fact it’s not perfect almost adds to its charm. Lovely crisp, white bed linen and loads of towels. Absolutely loads of kitchenware too.

Good stay but ...
Nice property, good location, good facilities and nice back garden. There were a couple of maintenance issues that the owners offered to have fixed during our stay which we declined as wasn't convenient. Whilst this didn't detract from our stay it is something that would potentially need to be rectified prior to other guests staying, namely the TV did not work, the shower drained very very slowly and the shower attachment on the bath tap wasn't tight enough.

Lovely part of the world
Overall the property was comfortable - couple of niggles which the owner will discuss with the new cleaner. First time we have stayed in a property that allows pets and we don’t have any - not sure we would again but this property is perfect for people with dogs.
Paul is a great base for staying near Mousehole - very close to walk in everyday - we certainly had lots of exercise. We tried all the eateries in the village and thankful to the Kings Arms for fitting us in late on arrival day after an 8 hour drive!

Beautiful house in a great location.
This is a beautiful spacious house, very clean and well equipped for our family holiday in October. We loved the large kitchen dining room and the spacious lounge. Beds were great and the lovely bath a real treat. We enjoyed the king's arms and pottering around Mousehole plus exploring further afield. The dogs had a great time as did the three year old!! Thank you so much.

Clean and spacious - great location
We arrived to find scaffolding! An eyesore on such a lovely cottage/garden. Poles to the ground from around the whole property obstructing all the window views except 1. We contacted the owners who contacted the scaffolding co. (to their knowledge it had been removed weeks ago), told it would be removed Mon/Tues. Each day went on, had to chase the owners up who chased the scaffolders! It was still there when we left, it really spoilt our holiday and using the beautiful garden as much as we’d hoped as it was just an ugly view like staying on a building site. Unsecured ladders at ground level from the pub carpark caused some anxiety in our family of security especially at night after a hot day when we’d like windows open with sea air, Steph assured me that Paul is a very safe place and all was okay ( I guess our dog would have barked loudly too) but it was just a stressful situation all round for all of us including the owners.
We cannot fault the inside of the cottage, spotlessly clean, spacious, fabulous kitchen and bathroom, very large bedrooms, very high standard and was lovely. The road to Mousehole is very steep on the way back up to the cottage and narrow, with a dog it was difficult avoiding cars and would be difficult for anyone with health or mobility issues. The King Arms pub next door is good for free parking next to the cottage and you can easily see the car park from the garden. We went for dinner and mentioned we were parking overnight as agreed with the owners (signs up saying no overnight stays) they said the owners shouldn’t of said this as parking overnight isn’t allowed. I checked the info back at the cottage, definitely agreed with owners and was all fine. King Arms are slow at taking your order if you are sat outside even on a quiet day. We had hot weather every day end Aug/early Sept. Dog ban on beaches until 6pm until Aug 31st so we went later and saw sunsets at Sennan Cove and other local beaches. Rock Pool Cafe and Coastguard Inn in Mousehole great table views to sea and excellent food/drinks and great service and dog friendly. Lane to Mousehole from house steep on way back, narrow road with the dog, you need to be fit and have no mobility issues. We saw dolphins and seals with Cormoran Boat Trips - a great experience and dog friendly. Lands End and Porthcurno beach beautiful & famous Kynance Cove worth the drive. We hope we can resolve the situation soon Steph and Matt for the inconvenience during our stay.

Homely and relaxing
The property was lovely and spacious for the 2 of us. Parking was great, pub and village hall car park right next door. Very peaceful location. Literally 5 mins down the hill to mousehole. Quite close to all of the places we wanted to visit.
Hosts were brilliant. The day we travelled there I had a few questions and they answered rapidly considering steph was actually giving birth to their baby boy!!!!
Would definitely stay again if we were wanting to stay around that area
Mackrel sky is a must if you are in Newlyn. Beautiful freshly cooked food and so relaxed
Thankyou for having us

Lovely cottage
We had a lovely stay at this cottage, it was spotlessly clean and beautifully furnished. Very comfortable bed and sofa. We also loved the open plan kitchen-dining room.
It was great to be able to walk into Mousehole without having to worry about parking! Having the Kings Arms next door was a real bonus as we managed to book a table there 5 out of our 7 nights. Everywhere else in Mousehole was fully booked.
The fields at the back of the pub was a really useful place to let our dog have a run first thing in the morning and later in the evening.

A Week in Paul - A Cornish village
The first morning brought a pleasant surprise on Sunday morning when we heard the Paul church choir singing in the church Quiet Garden behind the cottage. Delightful.
Twice a day horse and rider pass by the cottage, going to and from..
Three times a day the resident of the house next door is visited by a neighbour on a rota … a village community looking after their own.
The church had an open day on Wednesday, we were disappointed to miss it as we had gone to the Penlee Gallery at Penzance for the Dame Laura Knight exhibition. Stunning.
Fish and chips from Lewis’ in Newlyn. Delicious.
We are still reluctant to visit restaurants so we dined in. The kitchen is very well equipped and easy to cook in.
Take out coffee sat on the harbour wall at Lamorna watching the waves break on the rocks until the drizzle threatened to become heavier. Back to the cottage and the crossword.
No need to travel far from the comfort of the cottage. Big kitchen to sit around in, comfy sofas to crash out on, sun trap garden,
pub next door but we preferred to have G&Ts in the garden.
After 15 months of continually reacting to covid rules and hard slog to keep our business on track we were more than ready for a rest. The cottage was the perfect bolt hole, close to Mousehole, Newlyn, Penzance and St Ives with all that the area has to offer.
Lots of laughing, sleeping, recharging.
Thank you for a great week.

Wonderful cottage in a fab location
We absolutely LOVED our stay here, the cottage was clean and so well equipped. We had fab weather so ate outside most evenings. We walked down to Mousehole and swam in the harbour, it was all so idyllic. The cottage was a great base for us to explore this part of Cornwall, some of our fave places were the Minnack Theatre, Sennen, Porthcurno beach, St. Michael’s Mount and Cape Cornwall. We will most certainly be back! Thank you so much 😊

Great location spacious and comfortable
10 min walk from Mousehole and right next to the pub. We arrived the week after lock down and the house was looking worse for wear.
Garden was over grown, and we had to clean it up and had to wash down the patio to make it usable and house was very damp and a lot of plaster had fallen off the wall and walls visibly wet.
The brown leather sofa was covered in mould.
Owner were very upset at the condition and was not the usual standard.
Out this down to the first day after lock down and house empty for 6 months.
