I've resorted to shooting rats in the garden but found it very time consuming so I bought Little Nipper's big brother. Baited it with a bit of bacon which seemed to do the trick. Did find it a good idea to teather the trap otherwise they seem to travel quite a distance.
Thanks for the mouse bait ideas everyone, I'll try the Nutella as I've got some in the cupboard.

Get a cat. Seriously. The smell will deter the field mice from coming in, and the cat will go to work on the ones in the house. Go for a female. They are the expert mousers (just as female lions are the primary hunters in a pride).

On a more tongue-in-cheek note, you could always eat the cat if things get desperate. More meat on it than a mouse!

When we were letting out our cottage as a holiday let, we had endless problems with mice. Since we moved in permanently with our two cats, no bother.

Unless the cat has terri gondi and its urine will atract rodents.
