The Old Vicarage ceased to be the official home of the clergy attached to Mullion's Parish Church, in 1981 when a new vicarage was purchased a few hundred yards further down Nansmellyon Road. According to local historians, The Old Vicarage is at least third in a succession of previous vicarages. The other two houses still exist, and are now private dwellings. It is known that Sir Arthur Conan Doyle stayed at The Old Vicarage, and it is thought to have provided the basis for the vicarage in the Sherlock Holmes story, The Devil's Foot.  |
| Since Jacqui and her family took over The Old Vicarage in 1996, she has decorated and furnished their home in her own distinctive style. This is reflected in the individual decor, unique to each of the bedrooms. All have colour television, tea and coffee making facilities, central heating, hair dryer, and all save one are en suite (this room does have it's own private bathroom). Being at the front of the house, facing south, the bedrooms enjoy the best of the sunlight, and afford views of the sea across Mounts Bay towardrs Penzance. The Old Vicarage is well situated, being five to six minutes walk from the village shops, pubs and restaurants.  |
