There are three bedrooms; two doubles and a twin bedded room. Up to six persons can be accommodated with ease. There are toilets both upstairs and down. However, the house is unsuitable for young children and pets are not permitted. The Loft House is a no smoking home.

The house lies near the centre of the village of Mousehole.
This beautiful small fishing village, is first recorded in historical records in 1242 AD. Relatively unchanged over the past century, Mousehole is protected by conservation measures.

During the summer months there are boats working out of the harbour mainly fishing for shellfish and mackerel. Nearby Newlyn is the main port in this region (its early morning fishmarket is most interesting). At all seasons, Mousehole is a delightful village in an interesting part of West Penwith.

The Cornish coastal path leads from the village; there is delightful walking especially to the southward towards Lamorna and beyond. To the north of Mousehole is the start of a cycle path which gives easy access to St Michael’s Mount about 6 miles away.

There is much historic, archaeological, artistic and sporting interest in the West Penwith area. The world famous Mousehole Christmas Harbour Lights are an outstanding attraction over the Christmas and New Year period. The famous Minack Theatre is only eight miles away by car.

The Loft House has a sunny position with a fine rear patio catching the afternoon sun and giving views of Raginnis Hill ; there is also a small walled garden. Public car parking is about 100 yards from the house; it is payable locally.
