  • 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.

What customers say

Great spot, tidy with roomy, flat sites and super clean facilities, especially the showers. Handy for walks and local sights. Cafe was a hit. WiFi and phone signal patchy for some, and a bit of road noise, but staff were a top bunch and good value overall.

Liked The site was very well maintained and clean.The staff were very helpful.

Disliked Not being told of private party which was booked by the Local football team. Which meant people running around the site at 9pm and shouting
Opened food bar for them but not serving site members unless you wanted over price pizza.

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.
