EIGHT YEARS AT LITTLE TREVOTHAN

CHRISTMAS IN COVERACK 2024

There is lots to love about November: Hot Chocolate - Hearty Dinners - Fireside - Relaxation without pressure yet of Christmas! Like October, the days are beginning to shorten more which means early sunsets and plenty of time to go star gazing. November is the start of low season throughout Cornwall so beaches are quiet, wrap up warm and take your dog to blow some cobwebs away! Find a cosy pub with a warm fire and you'll be sorted for a chilly evening with a home cooked meal. Perfect after a blustery day exploring the coast, villages or woodland. Visit the Seal Sanctuary in Gweek - The sanctuary rescues many seal pups in November so a great time to enjoy the place when it is quieter. Visit The Paris Pub, The Lifeboat House Restaurant, The Bay Hotel and Roskilly's for a fabulous meal. Events not to be missed! - Quiz Night at The Paris every Wednesday from 8pm. Book a table earlier and grab your dinner. - Cocktail Night at the Bay Hotel every Friday between 5pm and 8pm. Enjoy 2 cocktails for just £14! - The Lizard Fireworks on Friday 1st November from 5.30pm - Coverack Bonfire and Fireworks Night - 5th November from 5.30pm - St Keverne Christmas Craft Fair - Sunday 17th November from 11am - RNLI Christmas Fayre - Saturday 30th November from midday at St Peter's Hall Whatever you decide to do, you will receive a warm welcome at Little Trevothan Camping and Caravan Park. Stay in one of our beautifully appointed holiday caravans at Low Season prices. See you soon!

Things to do during October in cornwall

An Inspector calls!

Summer isn't over yet and with the children going back to school, Cornwall is a fantastic destination for your quieter get-away. September often has drier and warmer weather than August, and with the peak season over for another year, you can expect a calm and relaxing staycation! Beaches and beauty spots will be much quieter and the roads will be less full making your journey much more pleasurable! You can soak in the views and the scenery on inland and coastal walks, enjoy an ice cream on the beach or a cream tea in a lovely cafe. The Cornish sea is allegedly warmer in September than other months, so if a jump in the waves or a swim is your thing, this could be the best time. Bringing your dog? Many of the beaches in Cornwall have dog bans lifted from 1st September allowing your canine friend to enjoy the freedom of the beach and sea as well! So beat the crowds, enjoy the ambient temperatures, relax and unwind. So apart from all this relaxation what does Coverack and the local area offer in September? The Coverack Art Society exhibition ends on Monday 2nd September. Held in St Peter's Hall in Coverack from 11am until 5pm. Pop in and have a look at the local artwork. Quiz Nights - held every Wednesday in the Paris Pub from 8pm. Archery - Have a Go day in Garras - Saturday 14th September from 10am. Helston Carnival - Saturday 14th September - starts and finishes at Tesco 6pm departure. Cocktails at the Bay Hotel every Friday from 5pm until 8pm. Fabulous meals at the Lifeboat House Restaurant (not Monday or Tuesday) Excellent meals at The Paris Pub (every day!)
