Mousehole- a picturesque fishing village in a beautiful setting. Narrow streets, blind alleys, it has it all. Both working boats and visiting yachts still use the harbour today. Mousehole (pronounced "Mowzel") is one of Cornwall's most picturesque hamlets; a stunning collection of yellow-lichened houses, built from the local finely grained Lamorna granite, huddled together around the inner edge of the harbour - protected from the force of the sea coming across Mounts Bay by two sturdy breakwaters.

Driving around here was an experience. We finally managed to park and had a quick sandwich at a small cafe which was hidden away.
