Electric hardstanding and grass motorhome pitch

Liked The people who ran the site were very helpful.

Disliked The toilet and shower facilities were not as expected. Despite visiting in April over Easter bank holiday only one shower was open for use for the whole site! We were aware we would have to share toilet and shower facilities with a local football club however when we arrived a game was on and toilets were out of bounds - for the price of the campsite which is high compared to elsewhere I would expect better and more facilities. Unfortunately we will not be returning and after speaking with others on the site found out that lots of people had either turned up and left after a few hours or not stayed their entire stay due to the facilities.

Linda S.

Electric hardstanding and grass motorhome pitch

Liked Great site with level pitches, nice and quiet. Outlook was over the football pitch. Made to feel very welcome. Access to Mousehole was a lovely walk of about 10 minutes. Easy to access of the main road as they have a new entrance .

Disliked A bit of a walk to the shower which was over at the football club.

Electric hardstanding and grass motorhome pitch

Liked Very friendly staff, good sized level pitches. Easy walking distance to local town and pub. Overall a pleasant stay.

Disliked Poor amenity facilities just let the site down so badly or it would have a top rating. Overpriced for the lack of decent facilities unfortunately, many much smaller cheaper sites have better facilities.

Liked The friendly and informative greeting to let us know how to access the facilities and also where locally to get food.
Although it felt a little funny being in a football pitch the toilets and showers were great, nice and warm in the building and hot showers!

From the manager: Thankyou for your stay , our website directions are currently being updated to incorporate the new road that has recently been put in, Cornish roads are very small especially around mousehole.

Rob G.

Electric hardstanding and grass motorhome pitch

Liked We really liked the relaxed no-fuss nature of staying at this site. Once we were seen in by the wardens; we were left alone.
Its a great location for Mousehole; 20 mins down either a footpath or the (quiet) road.
There is a bit of a walk to use the facilities in the football club-house; but its not too bad at all.
It ticked all the boxes for us for a few days winter get-away.

Disliked The location instructions on the website take you to the OLD entrance; which is a fair challenge and heavily pot-holed. There is a new tarmac drive which is much better. The What 3 Words for the new entrance is ///available.managed.rejoin

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.
