Our featured Cornwall cottages include this property in the heart of Mousehole, a picturesque fishing village on the south coast of Cornwall between Penzance and Land's End. It has retained much of its old-world charm with narrow streets are filled with small shops, galleries and restaurants. Local Cornwall cottages huddle together around the inner edge of the harbour. Dylan Thomas described the village as the loveliest in England, but there are many Cornishmen who would dispute that this part of the world can be classed as England! Reputedly the last person to speak only the Cornish language lived in Mousehole. She died 200 years ago and there is a memorial to her in the churchyard at Paul, a small village just above Mousehole. In recent years, the Cornish language has undergone a revival.
