Browns farm caravan park (added by manager 18 apr 2022)

  • Family-owned site with spacious pitches on a Devon working farm
  • Within 15 minutes' drive of Exeter and the Jurassic Coast
  • Lots of walks in the local area; 10 minutes' walk to cosy village pub
Surrounded by lovely scenery next to the 14th-century farmhouse on a working farm, you’ll probably feel like you’re completely immersed in rural Devon when you stay at Browns Farm Caravan Park. And indeed you will be – the pitches at this family-owned site are spacious and peaceful, and a short drive away from footpaths for walking alone or with your dog by your side. Other outdoor activities including fishing, golf and horse riding can also be tracked down in the local area. Fittingly for a real rural location, there’s a lovely old pub 10 minutes’ walk away in the local village of Woodbury Salterton for drinks and dinner by the log fire under the traditional beams. There’s much more to this place than purely rural outings though, as it’s in an excellent spot for all sorts of days out. City days in Exeter and sandy ones in Budleigh Salterton require a drive of about 15 minutes or so, and there are plenty of attractions nearby too, from the rides of Crealy Theme Park to the floral displays of Bicton Park Botanical Gardens. Wherever you choose to roam, you’ll be coming back to peaceful pitches backed by hedgerows and with access to handy facilities including wifi, a washing-up area, a launderette, chemical disposal and a bathroom block with toilets and showers (including disabled facilities).

Powered cement/asphalt and grass campsite

Liked: Everything! From the moment we arrived we were greeted with a smile and they instantly knew who we were. The place was immaculately clean, considering this is a working farm that is not an easy thing to achieve, it was peaceful despite having quite a few guests on site,the pitches were an amazing size and level with a water supply for each pitch!

FHU cement/asphalt and grass campsite (premium)

Liked: The farm was fantastic,lovely welcome . Nice clean shower blocks. Close to the m5, which got you into devon and all the sites in no time.

Disliked: The pitch was in the corner of the site that was tight. People who didn't know any different were emptying the grey waste in the corner that looked like it was a grey waste drain . But it ended up under our van.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass campsite (plus)

Liked: Very quiet and peaceful. Large pitches. Everything very clean. Toilets and showers clean and tidy.

Disliked: Free WiFi is patchy at best if you’re the wrong end of the site. Only one shower for men and one for women. Shower very tight if you have young children to wash.

Local attractions

Time to stretch your legs? The closest spot is Woodbury Common, a mile away and a handy spot for dog walking, but there’s much to explore as the site sits on the edge of the East Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. And of course there’s always the South West Coast Path – the seven-mile stretch from Budleigh Salterton to Sidmouth is a particularly rewarding one. Speaking of the coast, Budleigh Salterton (15 minutes’ drive) is a lovely place for a day out on the sandy beach, but you could also explore the offerings of Exmouth (15 minutes) or Dawlish (half an hour). Keeping it countryside instead, there’s fishing at Hogsbrook Lakes (five minutes), golf at Woodbury Park (five minutes) and the chance to coo over cute animals at either World of Country Life (15 minutes) or The Donkey Sanctuary (20 minutes). To keep the kids entertained for a full day, try the rides, shows, play areas and animal attractions at Crealy Theme Park (five minutes).
