What customers say
Lovely quirky campsite, great Lizard Peninsula spot for exploring. Spacious pitches, good facilities with hot showers. Roaming chickens a hit! Some road noise & a bit untidy at times.

Peaceful, rustic and perfect place to stay
Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked Loved everything about this little rustic campsite, beautiful setting and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Loved the chickens roaming freely. The facilities have everything you need without it feeling like a holiday park. We cycled to Kynance Cove In 10 minutes down a footpath and drove the next day to the car park. It's very close. We will definitely be staying here for longer next time and using it as a base to explore Cornwall
Disliked Nothing.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked Small site, which is what we wanted. Good location for the Lizard but definitely stayed in better.
Disliked It's looking tired and a little neglected. Lots of brambles around the pitches and a few old dumpy bags and other stuff lying around the site. Wife wouldn't use the main showers as they were grubby and the door was very hard to shut. The other shower was tired but functional.

Would I stay again, 100%.
Non-electric grass pitch
Liked Elizabeth, (Liz) is an amazing host and owner of 'Little Trethvas Holidays' situated in The Lizard, Cornwall near a busy road that could be heard but did go quiet early evening and was not a problem at ALL to me.
Thank you Liz for looking after me, checking-in when I walked up to your house most evenings to get my flask filled with boiling water so I could have a warm drink before bed every night. That was so lovely and kind of you!!! 😊🤗
The welcome pack with information about campsite, magazine and map of 'The Lizard' was so benenficial which made me explore all the beaches and coves on the Lizard.
'Little Trethvas Holidays' is a perfect location for hiking experience. Lizard has a villiage which is 5 minutes by car and the nearest beach is Kynance Cove which is stunning!!!
The bamtams were beautiful.
Disliked Nothing but I did think the general up keep needed a little tender love and care. Attention to detail this was all.
Toilets to be checked twice a smell of bleach would have been nice. And for people to use air freshner.
In the shower room I could not close the window as the ivy had taken over. Ivy was taking over
There was a pile of bags that needed to be cleared on the left handside walking to the first toilet/ shower block first from campsite.
Signs looked alittle tired.
