About the site
The location here at Mousehole in Cornwall is spectacular. The tiny village of Paul is a short stroll, while Mousehole and its beach are less than a mile away (a 20 minute walk). A football pitch by its very nature is designed to be flat and well drained, and the adjacent tent pitches are the same - plus there's a selection of grass touring pitches with electric. There are also some hardstanding pitches for campervans and motorhomes, with guests welcome to watch a football match! Up to four glampers can stay in one of the chic bell tents, each with its own lighting, inflatable beds and a picnic table. Please note that camping facilities are a short walk around the football pitch and that this can be dark at certain times of year - it is recommended to bring a torch. During low season, there is only one accessible shower/toilet open for campers to use, so the site is particularly suitable for self-contained units at this time of year. Pets welcome.
Campervans and motorhomes up to 7m are welcome all year round on hardstanding pitches with electric hook ups, while tent campers can pitch up between Easter and mid-September. Bell tents available May Whitsun holiday weekend and through July and August.
