  • Six-acre farm site with spectacular views towards Dartmoor
  • Half an hour's drive from the coast including Teignmouth
  • Meet the farm animals and have a tractor trailer ride
Old MacDonald had a… Parkers Farm? Herd your fledglings here to meet Douglas and Jimmy the donkeys and the rest of the herd: ponies, lambs, guinea pigs, rabbits, pigs, ducks, chickens, sheep, goats, Highland cows and other cows all live on Parkers Farm Holiday Park, right in the middle of the south Devon countryside with quacking great views towards Dartmoor and a 12-mile drive from the coast. (Naturally, dogs are welcome too.) Farm fans can milk their holiday for all it’s worth with free tractor-trailer rides around the site and farm walks to meet, greet and feed the menagerie (on a Monday, Thursday or Saturday during English school holiday periods only); safe play areas and six acres of fields are available for the kids and dogs to go free range at too. Off site, the farm is near a flock of other Devon animal attractions: Pennywell Farm, Paignton Zoo and meeting the ponies of Dartmoor are within a quick drive. The Parker family have run the farm as a holiday park for over 60 years. Miss Piggy's bar and restaurant dishes up home-cooked and well-cooked meals (opening days and times vary throughout the year; see the terms and conditions), and has evening entertainment during the school holiday periods. (Dogs are welcome, too.) In the bar and restaurant, there is a soft play area for toddlers to let loose in, while older kids can play in the games room with video games and pool tables. Guests also have access to the stacks of clean and up-to-date facilities: two tiled shower blocks with free hot showers, two big family rooms, well-equipped disabled facilities and a large area for washing up and prepping vegetables. Other amenities include a shop, a launderette, free ironing facilities, an information area and an ice pack service. There's also an on-site breakfast catering van to tend to hungry tummies every morning during the high season (and only at weekends during the low season).

Electric grass pitch

Liked Friendly, clean and great campsite. We visited during end of September so was peaceful and immaculate. The animals were a lovely touch and the piglets are super cute. Can imagine it's a favourite for families in the summer and I can see why. Great showers and clean facilities, wouldn't want anything more.

Disliked Nothing, no complaints at all it was fab.

Local attractions

You might be all of a dither trying to decide which Devon attraction to visit first, as coast, country, active options and peaceful pursuits are all near Parkers Farm, whether you prefer off the beaten track or more famed areas like Dartmoor National Park. Beaches first? Your pitch is a paltry 12 miles from the Devon coastline and the seaside towns of Torquay, Paignton and Brixham. If you’d like to cram as much activity as possible into one area, Dartmoor National Park's your spot: start off with horse riding or pony trekking from one of the several stables (the park has different areas marked off for different levels of rider). More urban(e)ly, Exeter, Newton Abbot and Ashburton are close to hand too if you fancy some shopping, a dip in Ashburton’s heated outdoor pool or a small flutter at Exeter Racecourse on the Haldon Hills.
