Save the Mousehole Bus

09/05/2026

In response to the BBC article, a spokesperson for the Save the Mousehole Bus Stop Campaign said:

“This isn’t about popularity or whether people like or dislike anyone - it’s about the difficult reality many now face. Richard Stevens will always be very welcome in Mousehole, and the community wants to keep the dialogue open with him to find a solution that makes the village accessible to everyone.

“Since the harbour bus stop was cut, elderly residents and those with limited mobility have been forced to tackle steep hills and narrow roads without pavements just to reach the new stop - even for something as simple as getting to Newlyn for bread and milk. The journey of children to the village primary school is more dangerous. The removal of the only dependable public transport link has left many feeling isolated and unsafe, despite clear evidence of year‑round need from locals and visitors alike.

“We’re calling for the reinstatement of this essential bus stop so the whole community can stay connected rather than cut off. We want to work together with Richard Stevens on a solution”.

A bus company boss says moving the bus stop out of the middle of Mousehole village is the "only option".

The Solomon Browne Hall was packed to the rafters last night, with the community turning out in force to call for the reinstatement of the Mousehole Harbour bus stop in a meeting with Cornwall Council and Go Cornwall Bus.

We’re only just getting started. The message from the room was loud and united, and we’ll keep pushing for the change that the community — and the many visitors who rely on this service — genuinely need.

Thank you for all your support. This momentum matters, and together we’ll keep it going.
