[Julie Beasley](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/117300529201751477541/reviews) ★★★★★

This campsite was great. Owners friendly and helpful. We will definately return. Football club next door , they are lucky to have the campsite boost their income and it would be great if they had their bar available to campers and I hope MFC support the campsite as it is a brilliant place and deserves to be supported. It was clean. Plenty of space and we found ourselves enjoying the surroundings. A very comfortable,safe and relaxing site. Dolly our little van enjoyed her first overnights camping as did her owners

My friend and I stayed at Mousehole Campsite for 3 nights and we had the best time. The facilities were great, the site wardens were so lovely, helpful and accommodating and took the time to get to know the people staying onsite. They helped us with our tent, both putting it up and eventually clearing it up after it didn’t withstand the wind that week. We couldn’t have felt more looked after and welcome. It’s a 20 min walk into Mousehole or a short drive as well as multiple shops with a fridge and freezer on-site. All in all, we had a wonderful time and will definitely be back!

Cracking area, very close to one pub that does great food, only a bit further (15 mins more walking) to Mousehole. Steward are really friendly and helpful. Down from 5 star to 4 star only because all facilities are on the other side of the football stadia. Although, they are clean and showers free. This is a working AFC club so be aware the facilities are there for the players during game days.

I arrived without a booking and generously recieved and tent site located. Darren and Linda were great hosts and looked after me very well as I was cycle camping on my route around Great Britain. The site was clean tidy and lawns adorned with wild flowers.
