  • Quiet family site on the banks of the River Winnick
  • On Pentewan coastal village's edges, 10 minutes' drive to St Austell
  • Direct access to the Pentewan Trail; nearest beach a 25-minute walk
Seeking a quiet site in Cornwall for a hol with the kids and dogs? Seek no more: Little Winnick Touring Park, on the banks of the River Winnick and on the edge of the coastal village of Pentewan, is a firmly family-friendly place that welcomes guests of all ages as well as their four-legged friends… If your pup’s eager to sniff out an adventure, bound along the dog-walking field or head to the Roseland Heritage Coast – the park’s on the edges of this protected area and is also excellently placed for hiking and biking around Cornwall’s countryside. It has direct access from the grounds to the Pentewan Cycle Trail, which connects the coastal village of Mevagissey with the Lost Gardens of Heligan via St Austell (just under a 10-minute drive away). So that’s your four-legged friend occupied – but what of the kids? Younger guests are more than sorted thanks to a play area and wildflower meadow to run about in on site, plus a toy basket, sports kit and books that can be borrowed from reception. For small travellers, treats including marshmallows for toasting and freshly picked strawberries are available in the park shop to sate a sweet tooth, along with coffee, newspapers and other essentials for the grownups. Wanting food to cook on your stove among the gorgeous greenery at the park or fancy strolling down the road for supper? A bus stop is outside the grounds with access to supermarkets in nearby towns and the local pub is within easy walking distance. Award-winning and spotless amenities at this site include showers and toilets – the park’s a former Loo of the Year winner – a full-size bath, a washing-up area and a launderette.

Liked The campsite is in a great location. We found it quiet and peaceful. We had our 6 year old daughter and crazy Labrador with us. They both loved it. There’s a dog walking field and a lovely river walk / cycle path that goes in either direction, to Pentewan by the sea, or to St Austell.
The facilities are clean, the staff are very friendly and helpful. We had coffee and pastries every day for breakfast, sold onsite. They were yummy!

Disliked Nothing! Some other reviews mention the road noise. We were on a pitch closest to the road and it wasn’t a problem for us. Yes, the campsite is next to a road. Yes, cars drive along the road. But we weren’t disturbed by this. It was the only thing that made me hesitate to book this campsite, but I’m so pleased that we went for it because we had a lovely relaxing stay here.

Liked Lovely site to stay on. Everything was kept nice and clean. Showers were hot and good pressure. Little shop on site and a cafe serving coffee, cakes and breakfast bagels in the morning. WiFi worked well too. Would stay here again.

Disliked Only thing is site is on a main road so traffic noise at night. But that isn’t the sites fault. Just something to be aware of.

Liked Great customer service, very helpful and polite. The campsite was well kept, clean and tidy with a wonderful river running along side which was great for dog walking and a forest area too.
Very fair pricing with no extra charging for family dog and also no extra fees for the awning.

Disliked Close to the main road so a little noisy at times but so were all the other campsites along the same road.
The WiFi wasn’t brilliant but not a problem for us as we enjoyed the extra family time together with no mobile phones playing family games instead.

Local attractions

There’s lots to see within a short stroll of the site – including the King’s Wood just across the river (under 10 minutes on foot) for wanders. It’s a 40-minute jaunt to the Lost Gardens of Heligan if you fancy flitting about in this 19th-century-inspired botanical space. To switch green scenery for sandy shores, the nearest beach – Pentewan Sands – is about a 25-minute walk away; get in the car for seaside stints further afield such as at the Polperro Heritage Coast. Cornish villages, towns and cities are also top for traipsing about: try Mevagissey (five minutes) and Fowey (25 minutes) to roam beside pretty harbours backed by colourful houses or head to Truro (half an hour) for the well-known cathedral.
