Description
Mousehole (pronounced Mowzel) is a picturesque fishing village on the south coast of Cornwall between Penzance and Land's End. The village, all but one house which still stands today, was entirely destroyed when it was burnt to the ground during the 1595 raid on Mount's Bay by the Spanish. Today Mousehole retains much of its old world charm and despite the drastic decline in the fishing industry, a few boats still maintain the heritage and tradition of a working fishing port.
