Elegantly furnished The Hideaway is a gorgeous retreat, perfect for a family, two couples or a romantic bolthole just for two.
An aerial view of the charming village of Mousehole, The Hideaway is less than a minutes walk from the beach.
The sleek and contemporary kitchen/diner is well-equipped with everything you need to create those fabulous holiday breakfasts or lazy evening suppers.
The dining-area.
Head up the narrow, steep stairs and you are straight into the gorgeous sitting-room complete with roaring wood-burner, perfect for those chillier days.
The kitchen has oodles of cupboards and work space.
The stable-door leading out onto the courtyard.
Plan your days out whilst gathering to enjoy delicious food; the stable-door can be opened wide on balmy summer evenings if you fancy a spot of al fresco dining in the sunshine.
Gather around and enjoy long lazy suppers.
The rear courtyard is the perfect spot for a morning coffee.
The oak beams are all originals and have been lovingly restored.
There is a handy desk area if you fancy sitting somewhere quiet and penning a postcard back home.
The Hideaway is tucked away in a secluded spot reached via a little cobbled lane. 13 steps lead up to the first floor stable-door..
Mousehole - pretty as a picture.

The fabulous en suite shower-room.
Once an old pilchard press, it has been lovingly refurbished to offer a chic and cosy retreat for four lucky guests.
Breakfast in bed - a great start to the day.
Bedroom 2 is located on the ground floor.
There are lovely areas throughout the cottage, this window seat has a little rope around it because its located at the top of the stairs, we wouldn't want any children harming themselves.
The contemporary family bathroom.
What a pretty bedroom.

Outside the property there is a private courtyard area, where you can enjoy a spot of lunch in the sunshine or a cocktail before heading into Mousehole for a bite to eat.
Take a meander to Newlyn to buy fresh fish from the numerous shops there.
The beautiful Mousehole harbour Christmas lights.
The coastal path to Lamorna is one of the prettiest you will find anywhere in Cornwall.
Around this area there are many wonderful walks from Mousehole.
The Ship Inn (overlooks the harbour) is a traditional Cornish village pub. Enjoy a beer whilst looking out over the harbour.
Please note that The Hideaway has a steep staircase (typical of Cornish cottages) with a small ledge at the top, so care is needed.

Very central location once you’ve found the alleyway to the door, which is a delight in itself, and well worth the booking! Mousehole is a special place and I think booking this cottage at any time of year would be a good ideal, now thinking of an out-of-season stay in the future. Highly recommended....

We agree - Mousehole is very special indeed! We're pleased to hear that you had a lovely stay. We hope to welcome you back out-of-season as there's so much to do locally in the quieter months. We love windswept beach walks, Sunday pub lunches alongside a crackling fire and seeing the famous twinkling Christmas lights! Jo, Customer Support....

The Hideaway is a beautiful cottage with a really nice blend of old building with new features/fittings. Mousehole is a lovely little village with a pretty harbour, lovely place to spend time. There are a few very good restaurants, cafes and pubs in the village but very little in the way of shops to buy food (or dishwasher tablets). We were booking the cottage late and across a changeover day, but Classic Cottages did a great job of sorting out the booking for us....

We found this to be the most beautiful and well thought of cottage we have ever stayed in. You will wish you lived there!
Mrs Wilson August 2025
We loved our stay at The Hideaway! The location is fantastic, right in the heart of Mousehole and a short stroll to the harbour beach. The cottage is thoughtfully laid out and tastefully decorated. Having some outdoor space for beach things was a real bonus. We hope to come back next Summer as we really enjoyed our stay....
