About Pennance Mill Farm
Pennance Mill Farm sits on the edge of Maenporth, a couple of miles south of Falmouth, spread across eight acres of meadow split into four fields above the coast path. The site has been run by the same family for decades and mixes grass and hardstanding pitches for tents, tourers and motorhomes with a small number of self-catering chalets let separately, giving it a settled, established feel rather than the polish of a big commercial park.
Of the roughly seventy five pitches, most have access to 16 amp electric hook-up and a dozen are fully serviced on hardstanding, with modern toilet and shower blocks serving the fields. A pitch and putt course on site gives families something to do without leaving the farm, and a private footpath and cycle track leads directly down to Maenporth Beach in around twenty minutes, avoiding the road entirely, with Falmouth itself reachable by bike or the coast path beyond that.
The farm keeps things simple and reasonably priced compared with some of the larger holiday parks nearer the beaches, and its position just outside Falmouth makes it a practical, well-located base for exploring both the town and the Maenporth and Swanpool coastline without needing to drive in each day.
