“A wonderful stay In the Sandpiper in Moushole. Perfect bungalow to stay in. Yes it’s up a steep hill but fantastic view across Mousehole. Very pleased to have the parking space outside the house. Bungalow itself is just like in the photos. Kitchen was very well stocked with cutlery, utensils, cups, plates and glasses. Washer / Dryer is a must. Shower was hot and powerful. Bed in the main bedroom was comfortable. Plenty of seating outside, unfortunately it rained practically every day so we never got to use them. My recommendations are: Walk everywhere if you can. Bus every 20 minutes from the Harbour to Penzance. Walk up the hill to the village of Paul. Beautiful pub called The Kings Arms, food was amazing and humongous!! Walk to Lamorna Cove, will take about an hour through country lanes or go the muddy way via the SW Coastal Path. We came back via the main road and found the Lamorna Pottery and Cafe. Wonderful little place. Just be careful walking on any road. We then got the Coastal Bus to Sheffield (next stop) and walked through Paul to Mousehole. A totally wonderful week of walking and seeing some great sights. Despite the weather. Would we come back? Oh yes!” SL, Apr 24
“This is our second stay here and it was lovely again. Cannot fault anything. A brilliant place to stay, so close to everything, good bus service and a lovely pub. Would thoroughly recommend” SP, Mar 24

“Short stroll down to the harbour were you can use the bus route into Penzance every 20 minutes. Lovely desk with sea vie.w Great to have a drive large enough for two cars. Had a great week!” CC, Jun 22
“Simon was great to contact, gave us all the information we needed. Bungalow was clean and well maintained, kitchen had everything we needed to cook. In the bungalow there were clear instructions for how things worked, including recycling and rubbish collection which worked very well. The garden was enclosed, and although Simon did have a warning to beware that the fencing was not all the way around, it was secure enough for our Cockapoo so that was relaxing. Views from the garden like the pictures, absolutely lovely, a beautiful location. Was a short walk to quayside where we enjoyed visiting the Ship Inn and had a few lovely meals. Equally there is a wonderful deli/cafe on the quay as well. Every 20 minutes there is the Mousehole bus which takes you into Penzance where you can get bus and train connections to everywhere, we did an enjoyable bus/train trip to St Ives. You will appreciate the car parking space when you see the rest of Mousehole, a real plus. Must mention the garden of The Old Coastguard, a truly lovely place to sit when weather nice. All in all we really enjoyed our stay and would recommend” SD, Apr 22
