Electric hardstanding and grass motorhome pitch

Liked: Very nice clean pitch and friendly welcome and a great location for a short walk to Mousehole and nice local village Paul. Nice powerful showers as you get to use the local club house.

Disliked: The toilets were quite far away from the pitch.... Wouldn't want to go there at night time, luckily we have a loo in our camper.

Electric hardstanding and grass motorhome pitch

Liked: Rustic but lovely location. Arrived with football game at one side and cricket game on the other. Fantastically friendly staff, very helpful and always happy to chat. Whilst facilities are basic, everything is within a short amble and adds to the feel of the site.

Disliked: The hill through Newlynn to get to the site! Lol!! Really steep.

Route directions

Please note that the access road from Newlyn is narrow. To access the site, you will need to go over a small ramp, so this site is not recommended for motorhomes over seven metres. When arriving from Penzance, do not use the road via Mousehole village, as it is narrow and unsuitable for larger vehicles. Instead, take the B3315 (Chywoone Hill) from Newlyn, which is signposted Paul and Land’s End.

Local attractions

Fans of BBC costume drama Poldark will find plenty to keep them occupied around here, with many names and places to recognise: Godolphin House, the mines at Botallack and Levant, and Porthcurno beach (Nampara Cove) are all within half an hour of Mousehole Camping and all worth a visit. Of course, if your passions lie less in TV drama and more in the arts, you won’t be let down – catching a show at the Minack Theatre, an open-air theatre carved into the cliffs above Porthcurno, is an absolute must. You can’t very well make a trip to this part of Cornwall and not visit the most westerly point of mainland England… Land’s End is a 25-minute drive from Mousehole Camping. Be sure to get a photo with the famed sign, and stop for a Cornish cream tea before you leave. Anyone drawn to the ocean will have plenty to do too: the top-notch surfing beach at Sennen is 20 minutes away, boat trips out to the Scilly Isles leave Penzance regularly, and the stunning St Michael’s Mount is a short walk along a causeway or an even shorter boat journey from the coast.
