Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked: Level pitches, with hard standing, good amount open areas on site to explore, good ehu.

Disliked: Felt like they had really wound there attention to the facilities back, only a couple of loos and showers were unlocked, and sadly they felt like they hadn’t been cleaned for a day or two, no paper towels to dry your hands, mud and grass in the showers.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked: Lovely place with beautiful views and lots of fun for the children. The live music on Friday night was great and the BBQ food was delicious. The cafe serves excellent coffee and delicious bacon baps and pastries every morning. All the staff on site were friendly and welcoming and we had a great weekend. The perfect place to access Beer, Seaton, Sidmouth, Charmouth and Lyme regis.

Disliked: The on site shop could do with a few more bit, like camping gas etc but it was towards the end of season.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked: lovely relaxed campsite, huge pitches, the children had lovely natural spaces to play. very clean showers and toilets.

Disliked: cannot be blamed on the campsite owners, but a fight happened in the night on a pitch very close to us. It was extremely disturbing and very frightening to hear.

Furnished bell tent (no electricity)

Liked: The surroundings, facilities and peacefulness. Coffee at the cafe was delicious! Loved the highland cows. Great location to explore the Jurassic coast.

Disliked: Bell tent location near farm access road so bring ear plugs if you want to sleep in.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked: Large, level pitches. Peace and quiet. Views of the surrounding countryside. Breakfast rolls from the cafe. Cold beers at the bar!

Disliked: Washing facilities are jumbled (personal hygiene/dishes) and not cleaned frequently enough. Many sinks (outside cubicles) don't drain as they are blocked with food waste. Not enough showers (need more that are not with a toilet/sink). Water standpipes are only accessible by walking through other peoples pitches. No resources to clean shower to leave it nice for the next person. Shower/sink/toilet cubicles are a nice idea but are very slow when the site is busy - would be better separate. Not enough hooks to hang towel/clothes. It feels like the person who built this has not stayed in it.

Local attractions

Kids are in for a ride (as are the adults for that matter) on the 60 different attractions at Crealy Theme Park and Resort (half an hour’s drive). The Seaton Tramway’s (five minutes) heritage rides up the Axe Valley are likely to be a little less bumpy than the rollercoasters. Wildwood Escot (20 minutes) has softer attractions too, like slides, play areas and animal activities for younger kids. Beach day? There’s a beach in Seaton (15 minutes) and in Axmouth (20 minutes) too. If the sand and sea just isn’t cutting it one day, you may want to schedule in some time in the 18th-century Bicton Park Botanical Gardens (25 minutes) or Pecorama (15 minutes), which has model railways and a light railway above Beer. The south-coast attractions aren’t all about the cliffs, coves and coastal paths. Animals share the limelight too, especially at The Donkey Sanctuary (10 minutes) and the World of Country Life (40 minutes), which has vintage vehicles and chances to feed lambs and chicks.
