Liked The location of the campground was good for visiting Mousehole on foot. The pub in Paul was also very close to the campground. The managers were friendly and informative and kept the actual pitches clean and tidy.

Disliked Shower and toilet facilities were inadequate and dated. The $35 per night price was too much for camping there, particularly given the lack of good facilities. Similar campsites attached to sports clubs that we have stayed at, are typically around $22 to $25 per night. This site is not good value for money unfortunately.

We note that you liked our location close to Mousehole harbour and to the village pub. We’re pleased that you found our volunteer staff to be
friendly and informative and that they kept the pitches clean and tidy.
You felt that the shower and toilet facilities were inadequate and dated.
With the new tarmaced access road now completed and open we hope that it will provide the opportunity for the club to improve the camping facilities going forwards.
Thanks again for your fair review and your comments are noted.

Liked Can't fault the hardstanding pitch we had. Easy to set up and nice and flat. The on-site management was most welcoming. The whole site was well kept and very quiet over night. I liked the fact it was close to a football and cricket pitch. Wi-Fi was good. The walk into Mousehole wasn't too far. We had food at the Kings Arms in Paul itself, which was good. Would recommend booking as it does get busy. Some would say the walk to the showers and toilets is quite far; however these are the clubhouse to the football ground. It didn't bother us because it was well lit and easy to get to. There was a closer by toilet if needed and a water point. There was also an Elsen waste disposal facility and bins were plentiful and kept empty. The facilities were clean and well kept.

We note that you felt that the site is well kept, welcoming and quiet, the staff are helpful, the wi-fi is good and that the pitches are flat.
We also note that you appreciated the clean facilities which are a short walk around the football pitch. With the new tarmaced access road now completed and open we hope that it will provide the opportunity for the club to improve the camping facilities going forwards.
Thanks again for your positive comments and we’re glad hope hope to see you again,

Liked The layout of the pitches was lovely.
Very friendly welcome from Sue .
Showers and toilet were just about adequate.

Disliked Although site was quoted as only a 15 minute walk to Mousehole it was a very steep one, too far for us in our 70s to walk back up. Phoned two taxi companies who were not available so were unable to visit the lovely town until the next day.
Washing up station too far from pitches to be worthwhile.

Thank you for your review.
We’re glad that you liked the layout of the pitches and the friendly welcome and hospitality from Sue.
The walk to Mousehole is via a steep hill which is a little challenging and it’s a shame that you had a CV problem organising taxis as there are a number of taxi firms in Penzance.
As for our showers, toilets and washing up area, we agree with you that the short walk to the clubhouse is not ideal. Fortunately the club has now completed its new tarmaced access road which will now provide a great opportunity for the club to improve the whole site going forwards.
Thanks again for your comments and suggestions which are welcomed,

Liked Nice quiet place. We don’t know how it is when cricket and football clubs are not on holiday.

Disliked Photos are better than reality.

From the manager: Jurgita,
Thank you for your review.
We note that you enjoyed our peaceful location but wondered how it would be during cricket and football matches. The cricket actually adds to our rural, quiet nature along with the church bells, seagulls, swallows and campfires!! For football matches campers get in free and can enjoy a pint and a pasty as well as good football on our fantastic pitch.
It is unusual and certainly a bit unique for a campsite but, in many ways it adds to the charm and hopefully adds to the camping experience.
Come back for a match and support the high flying Mousehole Seagulls!!

Liked Pitch as even and well positioned with a small area of grass. The actual site was clean and well kept. Logs and fire pits on offer for a small charge for the RNLI which was nice. Lady in charge was very nice and friendly.

Disliked Portaloo on site was dreadful. Couldn’t use it. Showers and toilets a long walk away over an adjoining football pitch. Although we were made aware they were not right on site the distance was ambiguous in the booking information. The facilities on offer were that of the football ground and were closed to campers on match days. Luckily this didnt affect us but wouldn’t have been ideal. The facilities themselves were not really of a high standard and the communal showers with only a rather old looking shower curtain between them were really not very user friendly. We paid less to stay at other sites on our trip with fantastic facilities so I think until the facilities can be improved a price review wouldn’t be amiss. As things are we wouldn’t stay again.

Thank you for your very fair review.
We’re glad that you liked the flat pitches, Sue’s hospitality and friendliness and the clean well kept site. We also appreciate your support of the RNLI through our fire pits and wood sales scheme.
We agree with you that the facilities shared with the football club are becoming a little tired and that the short walk to the clubhouse for showers and clean toilets is not ideal. The good news is that the club has now completed its new tarmaced access road which will provide a great opportunity for the club to improve the whole site going forwards.

From the manager: Thank you for your excellent review.
We note that you found the site to be very well kept with spotless shower rooms and toilets and lovely hot showers in spite of the short walk around the pitch.
You also comment on our great location - we are fortunate to be in a beautiful part of Cornwall just a 15 minute walk to the iconic Mousehole harbour and just 10 miles from Lands End. Finally we are very pleased that you found Sue to be very welcoming and helpful.
We hope to see you again,

Thank you for your review.
We’re glad that you enjoyed the location.
Yes, we appreciate that our facilities are unusual as we are based around the football club but we do clearly state this on the website and in our arrival information. Despite the short walk we hope that you found the showers to be hot and the facilities to be clean.
