Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked: Adults only, very dog friendly. Lovely exercise field for dogs with a few pieces of agility equipment. Nice and quiet. They only use every other pitch, so plenty of space between them. Good location for exploring Exmoor and the coast. Pitches were lovely and level.
Disliked: Nothing

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to leave your review, we really appreciate it. We are so pleased that you and your dog enjoyed the time here. Peace and quiet is what we love and we know our guests like too. We are in the best location, rural yet just 20 minutes drive to the coast, towns and just a 5 minutes drive and you're on Exmoor. We look forward to seeing you again so time.
A real gem of a site!

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked: I cannot recommend Devon Banks highly enough - it’s a very tranquil site which benefits from being nestled into a beautiful part of the world, on the edge of Exmoor, with lots to do and see. The hosts, Sarah and Darren went out of their way to make us, and our nervous rescue dog, feel welcomed and relaxed. The free to use dog exercise field has fencing and is big enough to avoid other walkers, if there happen to be any. A campers and dog lovers paradise which we will definitely be visiting again and recommending to our friends.

From the manager: We are absolutely delighted that you all enjoyed your stay. We love where we live and love sharing it with like minded people. We are always happy to accommodate those with dogs that are slightly nervous as we know they have normally had a bad start in life. Your dog has found a new loving home with owners who understand what they require. You're are always welcome here. Thank you for sharing with your friends.
Beautiful site. Excellent dog facilities.

Electric grass campervan pitch
Liked: If you like absolute peace and quiet surrounded by gorgeous scenery, then this is the place to be! Only 7 pitches on the site - grounds are beautifully kept and blend seamlessly in with the natural beauty. Love the size of the pitches too - you don't feel as though pitches have been crammed in, but rather thoughtfully arranged. Excellent facilities for dogs - extremely dog friendly environment - they even have a dog agility field! Will definitely return to this site. Darren and Sarah have created a wonderful environment that we absolutely loved. No on site facilities except a 'green' loo, but this suited us absolutely fine, so not the place to go if you require a shop or entertainment, but we loved it.

Electric grass campervan pitch
Liked: Darren and Sarah were great site owner hosts and made you feel very welcome. Large pitches with plenty of space. Great open and safe spaces to exercise or train your dog. Pleasant open views of the countryside and tranquil environment. You can visit the babbling stream or follow bridleways to the nearest village. We really enjoyed our stay and I will recommend the site to fiends.
