See all facilities…They say an Englishman’s (motor)home is his castle - so when choosing where to brake, you’ll want a spot that’s fit for a king. Castle Brake Holiday Park in East Devon should pass muster: it’s a smart, family-run park within the majestic heathland of Woodbury Common, ideally placed for an invasion of Exeter and the sought-after sands of the Jurassic Coast. (Tents and caravans will be given the royal treatment too.)
The facilities are splendid: a spotless, cedar-clad amenities block with underfloor heating and family bathrooms; a laundry room; a cosy bar and bistro that serves up quality home-made nosh using local ingredients (takeaways are also available); a decent play area for the kids; and ample space for a peaceful stroll and a bit of wildlife spotting.
Castle Brake Holiday Park is within walking distance of the village of Woodbury, which has a handful of good pubs and shops, or it’s an easy ride into Exeter for anything else you might need.
Nearby attractions and activities
Six miles from Castle Brake Holiday Park are the red cliffs of Budleigh Salterton and the family-friendly sands of Exmouth, gateways to the glories of the Jurassic Coast. A little further along the coast is Sidmouth, which features ravishing Regency architecture along its sweeping esplanade.
Whether you’re a culture hound or an outdoorsy creature, there’s plenty to do within easy reach: exit into Exeter, an attractive cathedral city brimming with museums and historic sites, or delve into Dartmoor, for more remote adventures.
For splashy and screamy fun, a wilderness woodland, indoor and outdoor adventure play areas, farm animals and more, head to the Crealy Great Adventure Park, a mere four miles up the road from Castle Brake. Or try the World of Country Life, which has a petting zoo, indoor and outdoor rides and slides, vintage steam engines, museums and events as eclectic as welly wanging and the six nations ferret races...

Overall pleased! Sarah F. (Young couple, 1 review, 0 photos) Confirmed ?
Liked: There was good quality of facilities, the toilets were always kept sparkling clean and the showers were a nice temperature. There are also sinks with hot water for washing up, and electric hook-up if you want it. I was most pleased by having a tap right next to my tent, as I am used to having to walk miles across a campsite to find a tap. There is also a small shop on site which ... Disliked: I had a slight bad experience with the showers, in terms of the lighting system. It turns off after 20 minutes (unless someone else walks in), which I don't think is enough time to have a shower AND dry off AND get dressed. It really should be longer. One of the times I was in the shower the lights went off before I had a chance to get dressed. I reached for something in ... |
