DISCOVER THE LIZARD PENINSULA . . . . . AND BEYOND!

An area of outstanding natural beauty, the Lizard Peninsula is the most southerly point of the British mainland and boasts its own unique landscape and stunning views.. One of the best places in Cornwall for seeing some wildlife, particularly marine life such as seals, dolphins and even the odd whale. With dramatic cliffs shaped by the Atlantic, the Lizard features white sandy beaches and clear turquoise seas. You will discover secret coves and fishing villages and will love the "laid back in time" vibe, whilst still enjoying water sports and more adventurous activities.

Beyond the Lizard, West Cornwall is renowned for its mystical charm, rugged coastline and cream teas (jam first obviously!) Boasting not only the most southerly point, but also the most westerly at Lands End. With lovely towns, villages, beaches, quaint shops, restaurants with fabulous views, and fish and chips by the sea, what's not to like!

The Lizard Peninsula

Visit Cornwall produced this great video of The Lizard Peninsula in 2013. Whilst more than 10 years ago, little changes on the Lizard. Enjoy.

Have a look at The Wild Lizard magazine for 2025. Lots of lovely information about our peninsula and what you can expect to find here.

What our customers say

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
