Penzance Campsites Ponsandane Farm
Mounts Bay Summer Camping for Tents
![]() |
Ponsandane Campsite is in an ideal situation, set within a 5 acre parkland field yet only a few minutes walk from the beautiful beaches of Mounts Bay. It is on level ground and is attractively screened from the road by mature trees with a stream running along it’s eastern edge. It is in close proximity to a Supermarket and the village of Gulval, with it’s Post Office, Church and Village Pub.
There is a Shower and Toilet Block on the field and all other amenities are within easy walking distance. Ponsandane has a relaxed friendly atmosphere and campfires are allowed on the field. There are no restrictions on the number of pitches so even if you have'nt booked your pitch in advance we can usually still accommodate you.
Ponsandane is only open during July and August and we regret that we can not accept caravans or camper vans due to the narrow access at the rear of the field. We do accept cars which can be parked next to your tent for your convenience and security.
Penzance Railway and Bus Station is only a ten minute walk from the field and the convenient location makes it an ideal base for a holiday in the beautiful South West of Cornwall with or without a car.
To make a reservation, please telephone us on 01736 331974 or
