83293�20Kennack-8_AdamGibbard.jpgKENNACK SANDS AND COASTAL TRACKS
Distance
: 2 to 4 miles
Terrain: Sandy beach and undulating cliff paths​​​​​​​
Beach Rules: East Beach is dog-friendly all year around. Seasonal restrictions apply on West Beach where they lift on 1st October (dogs allowed all day); restricted 10am to 6pm in July and August.
Kennack Sands offers an expansive sandy playground framed by dramatic rocky outcrops.  Outside of the summer peak, it becomes one of the finest dog-walking beaches in the region.
​​​​​​​The cooler Autumn weather makes running on the sand comfortable for dogs, and you can easily extend your stroll by picking up the coastal path towards Cadgwith or Coverack.

191660�20Beaches-Lizardarea-KynanceCove-29August2016-1.MattJessop.jpgKYNANCE COVE TO LIZARD POINT
Distance
: 5 miles round trip
Terrain: Rugged, steep steps, uneven rock paths
Difficulty: Moderate to Challenging
This is arguably the most breathtaking coastal walk on the LIzard Peninsula.  The route linking Kynance Cove to Lizard Point showcases serpentine rock formations, turquoise waters, and towering Atlantic cliffs.
Because the terrain is uneven with sudden drop-offs, sturdy footwear is essential, and energetic dogs should be kept safely on lead along tight cliff edges.​​​​​​​

  • ​​​​​​​Highlights: Stop at Lizard Point.  This is mainland Britain's most southerly point.  Watch for seals before enjoying a dog-friendly treat at the Lizard Point cafes.

249887�20Beaches-Lizardarea-Cadgwith-29August2016-2.MattJessop.jpgCADGWITH FISHING VILLAGE STROLL
Distance:
 1.5 to 3 miles
Terrain: Steep narrow lanes, pebbled beach and coastal steps.​​​​​​​
Vibe: Historic, cosy and sheltered
For a change of scenery, head to Cadgwith.  This working fishing village feels suspended in time with thatched cottages, colourful fishing boats resting on the beach and narrow winding roads.
​​​​​​​You can take a gentle walk around the cove, watch the boats come in, or head up onto the coast path towards the Devil's Frying Pan (a dramatic collapsed ses cave).  Wrap up your walk with a bowl of fresh seafood and a quiet drink at the dog-friendly Cadgwith Cove Inn.

BASE YOUR AUTUMN ESCAPE AT LITTLE TREVOTHAN
Looking for the perfect dog-friendly base on the Lizard Peninsula?  Little Trevothan Camping and Caravan Park is ideally located just outside Coverack, giving you effortless access to all of these coastal walks.
We offer dog-friendly spacious camping pitches (and overly spacious outside of high season!), touring facilities with grass or hardstanding pitches, and comfortable static holiday caravans equipped for crisp Autumn evenings.  After a day exploring rugged coves and sweeping beaches, return to a quiet welcoming and spacious park where your dog can relax as much as you do.

Our Doggie Highlights:

  • A lovely shaded exercise area with seating for owners.
  • A huge paddock field (dry weather only) for dogs who love to run and chase a ball.
  • A Sloosh Puppy Dog Rinse station to rinse muddy paws after a day's walk.
  • Free Doggie Treats in the Reception, and Sir Woofchester snack packs as a reward after a long day.

What our customers say

Short Weekend Break Away
Friendly, immaculate, beautiful, quiet are just a few words to describe this site. I'm sure there are lots more! I'll definitely be returning next year.

We Never Want to Go Home
Our 5th stay here, absolutely love this place and location. Spotlessly clean and comfy warm caravans. If you want restful relaxing quiet holidays this site is ideal. Had some lovely days out at Mevagissey, Falmouth and Lizard. Some great food eaten at Wavecrest Cafe, Roskillys Farm and in Coverack The Paris pub and the Lifeboat House never disappoint. Thank you.

A Little Piece of Heaven
My 5th consecutive year at Little Trevothan and that should say it all. Clean, tidy, friendly and the owners are a joy to deal with. They have a separate play area for kids so no balls hitting your tent! There's a quiet time to cut out late noise. It's not Butlins, it's just peace and tranquility, and perfectly located for getting about.

Absolutely Amazing Camping
Absolutely lovely place. Small camping with large, flat pitches. Very quiet, clean toilets, big washing up area and launderette. Nice playground. Fire pits and barbecues allowed. Shop available on site. Staff friendly and helpful. Perfect location for sightseeing - fairly close to popular tourist destinations.

Tranquil and Well Run Site
Our third stay at this site. Two great fields for our dog to run around. Excellent holiday caravan which is dog friendly. Everything you need is here, quiet, lovely external decking area. Will come again. It is a great location.

Julie October 2026

Excellent Site with Everything you Need
Very hiker-friendly site with all the facilities you need on a tough hike on the coast path. Spotless facilities, plenty of showers, loos, washing up sinks and a laundry. Lots of helpful details such as washing line, little shop, device charging and lovely well looked after level pitches. Really kind touches were providing me with a table and chair, as a backpacker these little luxuries make a huge difference. It is close to the coast path and you pass another campsite, but I felt it was worth a little extra walk for such a lovely stay.
