After falling in love with Tropical Pressure Festival in 2024, we couldn’t resist returning for the 2025 edition.
Set in the beautiful surroundings of Mount Pleasant Eco Park in Cornwall, this small but vibrant world-music festival quickly became a family favourite for its friendly atmosphere, fully plant-based food offerings, and manageable size.
This year, we found the festival to be very similar to last year — and that’s a big part of its charm.

In this review, I’ll share our thoughts on the beach house accommodation, what we loved, what could be improved, and what’s nearby to do during your stay.

A lot has changed since then, including our budget, the kids’ swimming ability, and how we holiday.
