Mousehole stopover

Anyone any info on Mousehole in Cornwall?
Going there in july for a night, wondering what the wild camping is like?

And camping?

Thanks Nilrac, i seen the campsite and was about to book but decided to sus out the wild camping first.
Thats something i never thought of, the irish number plates and the cousins. Although considering its a 1992 fiat, im sure it will be accepted our friends wouldnt be seen in one that old.
Yeah, think booking the site for the night is an acceptable proposition, cheers.

Believe me anything that resembles to the people ,the trace of trouble is viewed with apprehension, they have invaded school playing fields ,council car parks and have taken months to get rid of them and what they leave behind. So do your homework before you go.

We were over that direction last year walking and had to park outside the town near penlee caravan park. and walk in ,Its a very tight little town I wouldn't be trying to drive a motorhome around it, it was hard enough to walk around .its a lovely area all around there.

As a Cornishman, who has been to mousehole several times, even in a car it is tight. Lovely village but taxi or hire a car only. Cornwall in July is really really busy, a30 a nightmare so is the a38 and a39 do not plan to travel anywhere on a Friday or Saturday a they are change over days. Plenty of sites at st Ives and Hayle nice golden beaches but busy as hell.

This information has me a little apprehensive now. We had planned on staying outside most small towns, villages, and cycling in.
We arrive Saturday 14th in Pembroke, and the plan is to head to Pendogget for the night, do the doc martin tour sunday morning, then head to Mousehole for a stayover before heading to Blue Anchor on Monday morning. If the place is going to be as crowded as you say, might just get out of dodge after the tour and head up the coast to Blue Anchor.

im fairly good on the bike Martin until i start pedalling
But that might be an option.

Assuming your ferry arrives on Saturday morning at 0045 it would take me 5 to 6 hrs in a MH to port Isaac but in July and on a Saturday that could be extended considerably. The most direct route would wales to m4 then m5 using the Severn bridge, free to leave wales, then m5 and onto a30 after Exeter and then turn right after launceston on the a395 I think, turn left at the 1st junction then right before camelford over Slaughter bridge (note this road is narrow but so is camelford) then straight across at X road through Delabole, night mare place to drive through as cars park on both sides, through Delabole to pendogget ( but where can you leave you van there, there is no car park apart from the Cornish arms pub. There is a top car park in PI about 3/4 mile down to the harbour but if you need two spaces pay for both. There is limited off main road parking no yellow lines at hilson close, housing association properties and on mayfield road mainly council properties and Silvershell road but if you go in any turn round so you drive straight out, turning will be hard. If you head west the A39 has less traffic than the A30. Good luck. Oh if you are in PI on a Friday night the fishermen friends sing on the Platt/ harbour free of charge weather and other commitments permitting, they are very good.
Sorry forgot to say never tried any services as most have a 2 hr Limit. There is big industrial estate at Exeter take airport junction but go I towards park and ride and bandq you'll find somewhere there I reckon or there is a disused airfield far side of launceston near rough tor and brown willy they are hills loads of room there.

Tintagel is not far as the crow flies but come in land avoid boscastle and trebarwith strand, both lovely but hard work in a MH. I went primary school at doc martins school now the old school hotel.
I hope you have a great time.

What are you doing watching telly in the middle of the day.

we done that trip a couple of summers ago but it was early july just before shcool holidays, we arrived in wales early monday morning and spent the day traveling stopping regularly visited weston super mare on the way down so by the time we hit the smaller roads it was night so reasonably quiet the only thing is they do road works at night during the summer so detours can happen, we stayed down in st ives and had a fabulous time and onthe way home we done port issacs and drove along the coast,you will have a great time we did! we intend to go back

Waiting for Gin o'clock

P.S
Arriving at 00.45 and beating the traffic sounds like an excellent idea if you are unable to arrive on a different day.

I was specifically looking for Eden Project, though in July like everywhere, it will be busy. It was an interesting place to visit.
There is a section of car park for motorhomes, but upper car parks have Park and Ride.

Best of luck. Have a great time. Get in touch if you need anything...
