Small, quiet adults-only site on the edge of Exmoor National Park
Dog-friendly; half an hour's walk from Wimbleball Lake and Haddon Hill
Small shop on site selling essentials; dog-friendly pub next door

Remote, rural, peaceful and just lovely are the boxes you'll tick at Lowtrow Cross Caravan and Camping Park, a small and friendly place close to Wimbleball Lake on the Somerset and Devon borders and on the edge of the spectacular Exmoor National Park. Set over four acres in an area of spectacular scenery, Lowtrow Cross Caravan and Camping Park is an adults-only site set up for guests to have restful and serene stays in a remote setting with easy access to many West Country attractions. Miles of uncrowded walking and cycling trails are easy to access from here, along with fishing, sailing, canoeing and horse riding. If you aim to take things a mite easier while on your peaceful break, Lowtrow Cross Caravan and Camping Park is also in a wildlife and birdwatching haven with an enclosed dog-walking area. The site is great for unwinding and watching the sunset over the moor scenery, and there's also more sky gazing when the sun goes down, as this part of Somerset is prime stargazing territory. (Nearby Exmoor was the first designated International Dark Sky Reserve in Europe too.) Friendly wardens Rob and Karen live on site and are rightly proud of their surroundings: they'll usually be out and about keeping the grounds and facilities tiptop, so give them a shout if you need any help or advice. There's a small shop on site selling essentials and local produce on site. A dog-friendly pub is also next door, just one minutes' walk away.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Everything was pretty much perfect! Excellent wardens, nice welcome and nothing was too much trouble. Good sized gravel pitches, large enough to pitch our camper van awning, plus a grass area to sit out on. Very good wifi. Good showers, very clean throughout. Lovely view from back field pitches. Excellent pub/restaurant at end of site driveway. Great location for exploring Exmoor.

Liked: Greeted by Karen showed us to our pitch, both Karen and Rob could not have been anymore friendlier and helpful, and was Angela and Simon, all worked hard to keep the site and facilities looking spotless, beautiful scenic views, great pub next door, with great food , this really has to be 1 of the if not the nicest, friendliest sites we have ever stayed on most , free WiFi, although we could not get our tv to get signal, it was actually beneficial, as we talked more 😃 , would definitely recommend

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Adult only spotless campsite with exceptionally clean toilets and shower blocks, dog walking area, free wifi, well stocked on site shop for essentials. Pub next door and surrounded by outstanding views. One point was the friendliness of relief wardens. Tranquil and exceptionally quiet at night even though next to a main road.

Disliked: Even though the site gave explicit directions the site has only one big sign which can be missed if travelling from the opposite direction- but a friendly postman told us where it was!!
