Mousehole Camping

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.

From the manager: Jan
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.

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.

Although these are a little walk away from site it is not a problem at all . The site is in a brilliant place with easy access to lots of lovely places . I would go again

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,

Liked The Area,

Disliked Distance to facilities
Facilities are very basic and unusual as it is a sports changing room

From the manager: Mike
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.

Liked It’s a beautiful spot and my daughter enjoyed watching the football practice. It’s a great spot to explore Mousehole and take a but to Penzance.

Disliked As mentioned there is a little walk to the toilet but they were all clean and nice. Also there were baby swallows which made it special.

From the manager: Melinda,
Thank you for your review.
Yes, it is a beautiful spot in Cornwall just 10 miles from Lands End and very convenient for attractions such as St. Michael’s Mount, the Minak theatre, St. Ives, family friendly and good surfing beaches. We are also very conveniently placed for South West Coast Path walkers and cyclists.
As for your stay we’re pleased that your daughter enjoyed the football and our nesting baby swallows!!
Your comment about our facilities is also fair. They are shared with the football club and are a short walk around the pitch but we work hard to keep them clean and presentable.
Thanks again,
Paul & Sue

Liked Beautiful quiet location, hosts were friendly and attentive. Great location.

Disliked The only downside is that the ablutions are the attached football club changing facilities. Which offers very little privacy.
