What customers say
Mill Lane Campsite is praised for its excellent location, just a short, flat walk into Porthleven. Guests frequently highlight the cleanliness and quality of the hot showers, spacious pitches, and the convenience of the on-site pub. While many highlight the friendly staff and relaxed atmosphere, some reviews mention the facilities, particularly toilets, as dated and in need of refurbishment. Occasional comments touch on road noise and the shared nature of some facilities with the pub.

Great location.
Electric grass tent or motorhome pitch
Liked Really convenient position to walk in and explore Porthleven.
Disliked In pitch 13 bottom field, right next to the road, which can be busy at times. Some early morning traffic not great if you're a light sleeper.

Another great stay at Mill Lane.…
Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked Another great stay at Mill Lane. Spacious pitches, clean showers and toilets and literally a few minutes walks to the harbour, pubs and restaurants. Onsite there is a sister pub to the Blue Anchor pub (found in nearby Helston) that has a great atmosphere and serves really good beers.
