What customers say
This well-kept, peaceful campground offers spacious, private sites. Guests loved the friendly owners and the spot's closeness to Coverack village and beach. Despite no Wi-Fi and extra charges for toilets/showers, it’s great value, quiet, and folks want to return.

Powered cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite
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!
