“Summer House” Mousehole
We had a fabulous stay in the “Summer House”, gorgeous property. We loved spending time in the pool and playing a game of tennis. A very short distance to walk to the beautiful Mousehole. Would highly recommend a visit.

Wow! What a fabulous place
This was just the best week for all of us. Ages 10 -79. The house and garden are so comfortable and spacious. The garden is really tropical with acers and bamboo etc and all the facilities were great. We really loved the use of the beautiful pool and tennis court and ping pong table. The position is wonderful. Peaceful and yet walkable to Mousehole and the pub in Paul. We loved hearing the male voice choir rehearsing in the church. Thank you John and Karen - great hosts, never intrusive but always friendly and helpful. Five star holiday!!
