About the site
Away from the hustle and bustle of Cornwall's better-known resorts, Little Trevothan delivers a more relaxing holiday without overcrowding near the charming village of Coverack. Both electric grass pitches and hardstanding pitches can be found here, ideal for a touring or camping break. Head to the crescent beach only a 20 minute walk away, or explore the many coves and villages along the rugged coastline of the Lizard Peninsula. Many major attractions, such as the Lizard Point, are within reach, but you return to a more peaceful site. It really is the best of both worlds. Whether it's bird watching, wildflowers or a gentle stroll along the coastal path with its stunning views, the people who visit this site and Coverack have been coming back for years. This camping and caravan site is a little gem in a lesser-known part of Cornwall, but your first visit will rarely be your last! The spacious camping field is 12m by 8m and offers level grass pitches for tents, trailer tents and smaller campervans. The touring field is suitable for caravans, reasonably sized motorhomes, campervans and trailer tents - with sturdy hardstanding pitches, complete with grass space dividers.
