Mousehole is a wonderful little village and is a great place for walking around to get fit as the streets are quite steep. I do remember feeling sad when I saw the memorial dedicated to the 16 people who died in the Penlee lifeboat disaster in December 1981. The memorial is in Penlee which is on the outskirts of Mousehole https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penlee_lifeboat_disaster
