About this property

Romantic Luxury Apartment With Stunning Sea View In Mousehole, Wifi, Nespresso!

Christmas availability - a cosy, Cornish Christmas with the magical 'Mousehole Lights'

Nestled on romantic Poldark's coastline, Island Watch is a small but beautiful, purpose-built apartment set on two levels with stunning views of Mount's Bay and St Clement's Island and a private balcony. The apartment makes a romantic, convenient and comfortable base from which to enjoy South West Cornwall: in December for the magic of a traditional old English Village Christmas, in the Spring for the walking and the flowers, in Summer for the beaches or, for one of our famous Indian Summers right into November. And every day when you rise or come home, you have the spectacular sea views to drink in from your lounge or the private balcony. It's a great spot for a honeymoon or special anniversary.

For Island Watch, made just for two, climb the simple wooden steps to your own entrance leading onto the first floor. Here you'll find the lounge with kitchenette and French doors to the sheltered balcony. Flanked by palm trees you can sip fresh coffee from the Nespresso machine and watch the wildlife in the sea and on the Island. The balcony is sheltered and quite a suntrap. The small wc and shower are also on this level.
Upstairs to the bedroom under the eaves. Here there's a very comfortable kingsized bed with good mattress (we renew regularly) and good quality cotton linen. There's also a small sofa, a selection of books (English, French and German) and storage space for your clothes. From the skylight you can see the Island again and if you leave it open, fall asleep listening to the sound of the water lapping on the shore some 50 metres away.
Parking right in front of the apartment gives you peace of mind in coming and going - so much of Mousehole has no reliable parking to offer. The flat is equipped with: TV, DVD player, Ipod dock and radio, Wifi, microwave/small oven, two plate induction hob, fridge with freezer compartment, Nespresso coffee machine, tea, coffee.
We live next door to the apartment and are happy to welcome you and leave you to yourselves or be on hand for any questions you may have or tips you need during your stay. If we are on holiday ourselves, my mother lives nearby and is on hand for any needs you have.
The house is neighboured by the gardens of the Old Coastguard Hotel, a boutique hotel with 13 rooms and a very fine restaurant. This is a quiet establishment and a lovely place to dine - but do book.
During your stay at this apartment building, you're just a quick walk from Mousehole Beach. Enjoy your stay with amenities like a kitchen and a balcony in the apartment.
  • The apartment offers a kitchen, a balcony and a living room
  • Steps from Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and 3 minutes on foot from Mousehole Beach

What a wonderful place to stay - our hosts were the best. We felt like we were home from home, spoilt with the gifts left in the apartment and doorstep delivery of homemade scones (jam first, if course). Romantic and cosy with amazing sea views

Marvellous Mousehole

Clean, comfortable, warm, very well placed and a wonderful view of the ocean from the balcony (especially for the new year fireworks). Bus to Penzance right outside and the car park space was invaluable, the hosts were amazing, friendly and gave brilliant details on where to eat and places to visit, loved it.

Wonderful time at Island Watch

The location is amazing. The closest I’ve ever slept to the sea! The living space is small but very comfortable with a lovely view across to Mousehole Harbour from the balcony. All you need for relaxing and preparing simple meals. Comfortable bed in the attic space upstairs. This is a fantastic area on the Cornish Coast. So much to do and see. Great bus service if needed/preferred. Many thanks to our hosts.

Little gem in Mousehole

Superb cosy apartment, amazing sunny balcony which was well used for coffees and glasses of wine. Small kitchen area which we used for simple breakfasts but we ate out mostly. Fab roast dinner at the Ship in Mousehole, dinner at The Deli, fish supper from Lewis’s in Newlyn. The area is wonderful, coastal walks are abundant. Esme and Rob communicated well with us and we had fresh flowers, cookies and wine to start is off. Well resourced property m, bedroom ceiling is low so be careful but bed is so comfortable. Highly recommend.

Nice little place close to local amenities and clean and comfortable. Bedroom ceiling is very low and bedroom furniture was only reached by climbing up a very high step but it was cosy! All in all the place has everything you need including a very pretty view. The description mentioned a hot tub but we didn’t have one!

Magic Mousehole

In keeping with Mousehole, the property is compact but has everything you need. Wonderful seaview from the living area/terrace and parking out the back. Esme was super kind to us and lent me her walking poles (there are really fabulous coastal walks all around the area) and even did a load of washing for us. Above and beyond.
