Lankidden 2 bedroom holiday caravan

  • Friendly family-run site near the Lizard Peninsula
  • Coverack village harbour and beach under a mile away
  • Sports field, games room, launderette and plenty of space for play
'In a brilliant spot' is how a gratified former guest has described the setting of Little Trevothan Caravan Park near Coverack... this peaceful and friendly family park is secludedly set, but within easy reach of heaps of Cornish attractions: the Lizard Peninsula, Kynance Cove, St Michael's Mount, the National Maritime Museum and the Cornish Seal Sanctuary are a mere handful of top destinations easily reached from here, as well as fishing, surfing and swimming galore around the seas and sands of the south coast. Little Trevothan is among 10 acres of well-maintained lawns, hedges and shrubs, close to the coves and beaches of the Lizard Peninsula Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and 20 minutes' walk from the pubs, shops and shores of Coverack fishing village for swimming and watersports. The site has a family games room and a small shop (open during high season), and plenty of space in the sports field and playground for kids to run around. Among the amenities are a washroom block with toilets and free hot showers, a launderette with washing machines and dryers, and a washing-up area. Well-behaved dogs are welcome.

Campsite's tops for spotless facilities, quiet vibes & big pitches. Staff are lekker friendly & helpful. Good shop & play areas. Great for coastal walks, though Coverack's uphill. Occasional Wi-Fi woes.

Liked Beautiful little campsite with lovely staff.

Disliked We were just a little bit too far away from the washrooms which when you have a bladder the size of mine can be problematic in the night ☺️!

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked The really warm welcome
Where the site is situated
Play area.

Disliked Size of pitches too small as tents on top of each other. Noted was that quite a few tents had pitched over others areas and we had a car parked in ours.
People walking through our pitch.
Not the sites fault as they tried to rectify this. The condition that toilets were being left in.
Only one type of food van and it wasn't that good.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, and for highlighting our warm welcome, location, and play area!

We appreciate your comments regarding the areas that impacted your stay. Please note that the visiting food van is an independent, private enterprise and is not operated by our campsite, although we will share your feedback with them.

Regarding the facilities, it is indeed a shame when some guests leave the toilets in a poor state shortly after our team has cleaned them—we work hard to maintain high standards and encourage all visitors to be respectful of shared spaces. This season we have even created some funny poems to encourage children to behave better when using the facilities.

Lastly, our pitches are generous at 8m by 13m, which provides ample room for set-ups without needing to encroach on neighboring space. While we do our best to monitor the grounds and rectify any boundary or parking issues as soon as they are brought to our attention, we always encourage guests to let us know right away so we can resolve any space intrusion on the spot.

Thank you again for your review.

Abi L. 1 review

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked The campsite is perfect. Everything has been thought of to make your stay as good as it can be.

The pitches are all level and are a great size. The whole site is well looked after and is lovely to walk around. The site has a really good, spacious play area and football pitch with a nice little ‘secret walk’. Along with the toilet/shower blocks, the site has a laundry room with two freezers that are accessible for ice packs, a washing up room, a games room and a small shop. The facilities are modern and always clean. The site also feels incredibly safe and we were happy to let our 6 year old walk to the toilet and explore a bit by himself.

We saw lots of wild animals including bats, barn owls, swallows and many different song birds.

We went during the World Cup and the owners kept the games room open late to show the matches. The atmosphere in there was great and very welcoming and the owner even watched the matches too.

Disliked Nothing.

From the manager: Thank you so much for your wonderful review and for taking the time to share your experience with us.

We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the spacious pitches, modern facilities, and the peaceful atmosphere around the site. It's especially lovely to know that your little one felt safe exploring and that you were able to enjoy the wildlife – the barn owls, bats, and swallows are always a highlight for us too (the swallows are even nesting in our garage!)

We're so pleased you enjoyed the games room during the World Cup. It was great fun sharing the matches with everyone and creating a welcoming atmosphere for our guests.

Your kind words about how well the site is maintained and the facilities are kept mean a great deal to our whole family team. Thank you again for choosing to stay with us, and we hope to welcome you and your family back again soon!

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked We had a wonderful stay at this campsite and would happily return. The pitches were a great size, giving everyone plenty of space, and the whole site was beautifully maintained. The shower facilities were spotless, and plenty of hot water.

The staff/owners were friendly and welcoming, creating such a relaxed and peaceful atmosphere throughout our stay. It really is the kind of place where you can switch off and unwind.

A special mention has to go to the excellent dog exercise fields, which were spacious, secure, and perfect for letting the dogs have a proper run around. They were a real bonus and made our stay even more enjoyable.

A lovely campsite with excellent facilities, a tranquil setting, and genuinely warm hospitality. Highly recommended!

Local attractions

The nearest Cornish waters are at Coverack, about a mile away, and you'll also want to have a day at gorgeous Kennack Sands, reachable in less than three miles. Spectacular Kynance Cove, a couple of miles north of Lizard Point, is part of the West Lizard Site of Special Scientific Interest and was a favoured spot of arty sorts like Wordsworth for its scenic peninsula setting. Family days out nearby include the Cornish Seal Sanctuary eight miles away and the National Maritime Museum in Falmouth, 18 miles away. Paradise Park, an award-winning wildlife sanctuary with indoor play centre, is about 20 miles away at Hayle. If you fancy a ramble or a hike, head inland to wander the banks of the Helford river before catching the ferry for a sup and a bite at the Ferry Boat Inn near Falmouth; more energetically, hike a local section of the South West Coast Path from Coverack to Helford or the Lizard, or tackle the 10 miles from Helford to Falmouth via the Helford river and Pendennis Castle. The beaut scenery of tidal island St Michael’s Mount is 18 miles away; in the other direction, the Eden Project is about an hour's drive away near St Austell.
