Mousehole is a village and fishing port in Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. It is situated about 2.5 miles south of Penzance on the shore of Mount's Bay. The village is in the civil parish of Penzance. An islet called St Clement's Isle lies about 350 metres (380 yd) offshore from the harbour entrance. Mousehole lies within the Cornwall Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). Almost a third of Cornwall has AONB designation, with the same status and protection as a National Park.
Mousehole, along with Marazion, was until the 16th century one of the principal ports of Mount's Bay. Before its decline as a major commercial centre, Mousehole also had a number of fairs and markets, including the charter for a market on Tuesdays, with a fair for three days at the festival of St Barnabas, granted to Henry de Tyes in 1292. Mousehole, like many communities in Mount's Bay, fell within the authority of the Manor of Alverton; all early charters, fairs etc. associated with Mousehole are associated with this manorial estate.
Mousehole, like Penzance, Newlyn, and Paul, was destroyed in the 1595 raid on Mount's Bay by Spaniard Carlos de Amésquita, the only surviving building being the 'Keigwin Arms', a local pub. Outside the Keigwin Arms (now a private residence) is a plaque with the wording Squire Jenkyn Keigwin was killed here 23 July 1595 defending this house against the Spaniards.
Mousehole hosts a vibrant variety of festivals and community activities. It is known for its Christmas illuminations. Since 1981, every 19 December the lights have been turned off in memory of the victims of the lifeboat disaster. Tom Bawcock's Eve is a unique celebration held on 23 December each year to celebrate the ending of a famine in the 16th century by local resident Tom Bawcock. This festival is the inspiration behind the book The Mousehole Cat by Antonia Barber and the associated television productions. This festival is also the origin of 'Star Gazey Pie', a mixed fish, egg and potato pie with fish heads protruding through the pastry. Mousehole also holds a small maritime festival every two years called 'Sea, Salt and Sail'

CORNWALL WALK - Luxulyan Valley, Cornwall
The Luxulyan Valley, which is near St Austell, is regarded as one of the most beautiful, peaceful and historically important valleys in Cornwall. Hidden down tiny country lanes the Luxulyan Valley was in the mid to late 19th century, at the heart of one of the county's most important mining enterprises. We explore the industrial past within the valley, including the magnificent Treffry Aqueduct which soars 100 feet above the valley floor. Our walk is a 2.5 mile, relatively easy walk along the valley floor with mainly gentle gradients. NB This walk was filmed in June 2018.
