Why stay here ...

We have been running Specky Wood C.L for many years and thoroughly enjoy welcoming back regular visitors (some of whom have been coming back year after year) as well as introducing new club members to this unspoilt part of Cornwall. Our 1.5 acre site is flat, has easy access and the grass is kept short. It is a well maintained, secluded, spacious site set in the quiet hamlet of Trevothan about 1 mile from Coverack.

Coverack is a beautiful Cornish fishing village with an unrushed, relaxing quality about it. There is a picturesque harbour, thatched cottages and many other attractions including a sandy beach (at low tide), rock pools to explore, windsurfing school, a popular pub, general village store, restaurants, cafes as well as speciality shops and a gallery. The village Website is certainly worth looking at, with information on what’s on and more details about the above attractions.

We are in an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and are conveniently positioned for the S.W coastal path. There are many attractions locally, which can be linked to if you visit our Website.

We aim to make all our visitors feel welcome and our site has a very friendly and relaxed atmosphere. Children and animals are allowed but we ask that dogs are kept on leads whilst on the site and dog owners are responsible.

The site is  part hardstanding

Toilets and showers on site need to be booked in advance of use, please speak to owners when booking.

A great site.

Specky Wood
Really nice quiet site with friendly and helpful owners. Hard standing and grass pitches. The grass pitches especially of good size with a couple of clean toilet/shower cubicles if you want them, the whole site being maintained to a high standard. The village has good facilities with a pub, small friendly hotel, provision shop and cafe. A splendid beach washed clean each tide, dogs allowed on leads. Plenty of walking, places to visit, pubs and site seeing without leaving the Lizard, easily enough for a fortnight or longer. A great little site.

A smashing little site

Specky Wood
I can only repeat what the previous reviewer has written (8th August 2024). We stayed here for four nights in July. It was easy to book.It's a great site, plenty of space, good shower and WC facilities and a helpful information board. The owners are welcoming and friendly. It's in a good location for visiting the whole of the Lizard peninsula. It's only a shortish (but steep) walk into Coverack. We'd definitely like to re-visit.

A true gem of a site!

Specky Wood
Booked for 4 nights but ended up staying for 6! The site is clean and well kept, the pitches are massive, and the owners are hands down the nicest, friendliest people you could ask for! It’s a 1 mile (steep hill) walk down to Coverack, which is a gorgeous fishing village. There are number of nice coves within a short walk or drive, where the sea swimming is some of the best we have experienced in the UK. The coastal walks are superb. Lots of opportunity for seal-watching and maybe the odd basking shark. It’s only a couple of miles from Roskilly’s dairy, which is well worth a visit. The Lizard and Helston are just short drives away. In summary. A super site in a lovely area with lots to see and do! We loved our stay and will definitely return!

We stayed for three nights as part of our coastal tour of Cornwall. Site was very peaceful and spacious, good facilities - clean and well maintained. We loved the walk into Coverack, beautiful little harbour and beach, suite a steep climb back up but well worth it.
