A large stylish house overlooking the sea : Built in 1912 by a French sea captain for his lady, Carn Du House easily sleeps 12. The main rooms have panoramic views of the sea sweeping from the Lizard through the bay of St. Michael's Mount to the dramatic coastline which stretches west towards Lamorna and Land’s End. The large family kitchen with an Aga (with an additional electric Rangemaster in utility room) looks through to a spacious dining room which is open through big glass doors into a living room with a log fire and a sun room, all opening one into another creating a relaxing sense of light and space. There is a piano in the dining room.
On the first floor a light airy landing, leads to five bedrooms, three with en-suite bathrooms and an additional family bathroom. The two main bedrooms with their luxurious emperor sized beds (which can be twins), open on to a balcony high above the sea, one with a large Victorian enamelled bath beneath the bay window.

History: Carn Du has a colourful history. In its time Mousehole has played host to, among others, Charlie Chaplin, Dylan Thomas, Charles Laughton, the artists Gwen and Augustus John and the Guggenheims. With its light and elegance, Carn Du is a house of rare charm in one of the most beautiful parts of old Cornwall, the Penwith peninsula. Look out across the bay to St Michael’s Mount where in 1047, Edward the Confessor established a chapel now a fortress like house lived in by the St. Aubyn family, perched high on an island in Mount’s Bay, reached at low tide by a stone causeway. The coastline is gentle here, but becomes more rugged as you move west towards Lamorna Cove and Land’s End. With its abundance of prehistoric stone monuments, this peninsula was the last part of Britain to be taken over by the Anglo Saxons from the Celts. DH Lawrence said of it: “This Cornwall is very primaeval: great, black, jutting cliffs and rocks, like the original darkness, with a pale sea breaking in, like dawn…”
Beaches and Walks: It is also full of beautiful beaches. The beaches at Porthcurno and Porthchapel are 15 minutes by car from Carn Du, and beyond that is the lovely 3 star beach of Sennen. Just beyond Land’s End, offers some of Cornwall’s best surfing. Fly to the sunny Scillies by helicopter for the day or catch the ferry.
This house is perfect for a group for a special celebration, anniversary, birthday, or just a relaxed family holiday by the sea. Only a 4 min walk down the hill, Mousehole harbour is picturesque, tidal and clean, with a sandy beach ideal for small children to potter, with icecream and café closeby. There are walks behind the house through old Cornish fields to Paul and to the village, and the endless variety of the coastal path which can be as long or short as you like. Walk to Lamorna and stop for delicious lunch of fresh crab and more at the Café, stop for a pint at the Lamorna Wink, or the Logan Rock at Treen, where the colour of the sea and the beach rival the Mediterranean.
The house and cottage are available off season for a minimum of 3 nights at owners discretion at a minimum of £1,900 and £650 respectively.
