What customers say
Great location, peaceful site with helpful staff. Flat pitches perfect for exploring. Clean, basic facilities shared with a football club. Some found the walk to amenities long, but overall excellent value and highly recommended.

From the manager: Thanks for your review Keith. We note that you liked our large flat camping pitches and that the showers were hot with good pressure despite the short walk around the pitch. And, yes, the local village pub is only a 5 minute flat walk from the site!! 😊
Thanks again and safe onwards travels,

Mousehole Camping 🏕️
A fantastic campsite within an easy ride to Mousehole and to Marazion
Powered cement/asphalt and grass RV campsite
Liked Really great views and a flat campsite was a bonus! The hosts were lovely, really welcoming. Great access to Mousehole, down hill by bike, and virtually off-road all around the coast - travelled to Marazion through Newlyn and Penzance - lovely ride and almost flat all the way. A great location with good facilities and easy access, especially with bikes.
Whilst the loos were a walk away - they were really clean and cared for - even though it is AFC Mousehole facilities.
Fantastic to have WiFi!
Loved that the house martins were nesting in the ladies loos - lovely to hear the chicks cheeping 💜🧡
Disliked Walk to toilets - although not too bothersome so hasn’t lost stars 🌟 .

From the manager: Sarah
Thanks for your kind review and we’re very happy that you enjoyed your stay at our quirky campsite!!
We try and make improvements every year and our next project is the construction of a new access road at the top of the site so that campers will be able to avoid the current rough access through the village.
Same location and friendliness, better access 💜🧡

Power optional grass tent or campervan campsite
Liked The site was lovely, flat grass pitches. Great location. Has a cricket ground and a football pitch.
Disliked The road up to the campsite has massive potholes and you can’t dodge them.
The showers and toilets are in the football clubhouse, which is a bit of a trek from the pitches. The showers are communal showers.

From the manager: Jon
Thanks for your review.
We explain in our information and on arrival that the showers are shared with the football club so they are a short walk around the pitch.
However, we hope that you found them to be clean and that the showers were hot with good pressure.
We also hope that you found the staff to be helpful, friendly and welcoming.
Regarding the access road, a new tarmac road is being constructed in July which should improve access for campers as part of our ongoing improvements programme.
Thanks again for your review,

Liked Peaceful , level campsite , with a ten minute walk to an excellent village pub. We had a friendly welcome.
Disliked Nothing, but did not inspect facilities as they were a 5 min walk away. (Only there one night)

Powered cement/asphalt and grass RV campsite
Liked Close to Mousehole, friendly staff at the football club
Disliked Facilities are far from the pitches, I’d hate to be in a tent and having to get out for the loo in the night! Shower room in need of attention- mould, flaky paint, rusty holders. The shower didn’t get hot either. This site was expensive at £25 for the night given the poor facilities in comparison to other cheaper sites. Had it been a tenner cheaper I’d have given a much better review as you get what you pay for!

From the manager: Hi,
Thanks for leaving a review. Sorry to see you didn't enjoy your stay.
We do wish you had notified us a out the shower at the time, unfortunately surely the trip switch to the power shower had tripped. This would have been a 30 second fix if we had known.
Maybe try us again in the summer, when our full facilities are open and the weather is better.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass RV campsite
Liked Great location for walking & only a few miles from Land's End.
Mousehole is a short walk (although a big hill) and is beautiful.
Great food at the pub 5 minutes walk away.
Plenty of room for the dogs.
Enjoyed the football!
Disliked Only one unisex toilet/shower room for the whole site unless the football toilets were open. On a Saturday morning there was a queue of 4 people and you had no idea whether someone was in the shower or how long you would have to wait. However, it was clear when booking that the site had limited shower/toilet facilities during low season.

From the manager: Hi,
Thanks for leaving us a review, glad you enjoyed your stay and the area around.
Glad you were aware of our facilities at the time of your stay.
Our full facilities are now open, so if you do come back, hopefully there won’t be such a queue.
