Cregyn Cottage
Cregyn Cottage is a real cottage in Mousehole! If you follow the description and directions in Chapter 2 of the book, you'll be able to find it. What's more, there really is a porthole, through which you can see the entrance to the smugglers' tunnel. Not forgetting Skull Rock, upstairs in the main bedroom...
Cregyn Cottage can be rented for holidays.
