What customers say
This is a well-maintained, peaceful site with large, private pitches. Owners Nicola and Jeffrey receive consistent praise for their friendly, helpful, and welcoming approach, often going the extra mile. The location is convenient for Coverack village and beach, with beautiful walks nearby. While some guests noted the absence of on-site toilets and showers, those who were self-contained found the site excellent value for money. Wi-Fi access has been an issue for some.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch
Liked Everything! We had the most amazing stay here at Specky Wood, so much so we actually extended our stay by 2 nights. The staff are wonderful and very attentive. We came from Newcastle so quite a journey but certainly one we can’t wait to do again. Coverack is a beautiful village and definitely one to visit. We can’t wait to visit again next year. Thanks so much for an amazing holiday!
