Mousehole
I like where I live because:
- It’s quiet and close to everything I need for day to day living. Good friendly community
- It is very near to town and local shops and schools
- It is a nice area apart from town all the rubbish that is in some of the gardens, and have good neighbours
- I am happy here
- It is where my family are. Local born and bred!
- I like the location
- Strong sense of community, low crime rate, good bus service, beautiful surroundings
- Mousehole has a good community spirit – thanks to the Christmas lights
- Close knit community, good bus service, shop ok
- Sea, community, size (small), beautiful
- It is beautiful, there is a vibrant community with school, pubs, shop and many local community events
- I am by the sea and am lucky to have space for all my family to visit
- Community, beauty, walking possibilities, good bus service
- Of the community spirit and wonderful scenery
- It’s a close knit community where there us a lot of activity under the touristy bit.
- Public transport is good. It is a quiet, friendly community, proximity to sea, town and country conservation area, sensible planning rules (at the moment!)
- Friendly community, open views
- Community strong in Paul and mouse hole
- Community, local school, open spaces
- Good neighbours, pleasant, quiet surroundings
I don’t like where I live because:
- Dog fouling on the pavements and the back lanes
- Of the parking situation
- People can’t afford to buy houses because of the tourism industry driving prices up
- Second home domination – its destroying the heart of the village
- Parking is a problem – Mousehole should be residents parking only and a park and ride scheme
- No parking
- Dog owners being inconsiderate
- The community is being eroded as when a house changes hands or is sold it becomes yet another “holiday let” to add to the over 50% of properties that are “lets”
- Parking on double yellow lines making passing traffic in narrow roads difficult, especially in summer.
- I live on a hill and find it difficult to walk to the village. We have no bus that comes up Paul lane Mousehole through the day
- N/A
- Parking/traffic issues
What would you most like to change about where you live:
- A leaflet drop to all homes re: dog fouling
- We need a residents parking scheme
- Clear the rubbish from the front gardens
- More road cleaners to clean weeds etc.
- Local Parish Council of Mousehole (we are not part of Penzance as current administrative arrangements suppose)
- Provide more affordable housing and limit the number of holiday lets
- I would like to regenerate the PZ locality with cruise ship access, more hotel chain access and more random development around
- Car parking facilities
- A limit to second homes and more social housing
- Only the parking – see above
- Enhanced parking arrangements and less through traffic
- Dog owners being responsible
- There are plenty of houses in Cornwall it’s the usage i.e. second homes and holiday lets that is the problem
- Better parking for residents. NB very difficult to drive through village in summer – one way system needed?
- More traffic wardens, no parking on double yellow lines
- More off-road parking
- Speed control on Mousehole lane, more affordable housing for local people
- More considerate parking, more regular road maintenance, decent cell phone reception.
