Grass touring pitch (added by manager 08 aug 2022)

Small family-run Devon site on the edge of the Blackdown Hills
Exeter and south coast beaches within a half-hour drive
Easy access from the M5 at Cullompton; walk to a pub and farm shop

Whether you fancy fishing, horse-drawn barge trips or climbing tors, Postwood Gardens Touring Campsite and Country Cabins makes for a fine base. This place is a small and peaceful family-run mid Devon site on the edge of the Blackdown Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and five minutes’ drive from Cullompton. The name Cullompton may be familiar to frequent travellers along the M5, and indeed this site is a handy stopover just a few minutes’ drive from the motorway (or indeed from the A303/A30, 15 minutes’ drive away). That said, there’s plenty around to keep you occupied for several days if you choose to settle down for a longer break – this site is in prime position for surfing, fishing, moorland hikes, climbing the tors, beach days, family attractions, cycling outings… Handy amenities are easy to come by too, as Cullompton has a high street full of independent shops, a farmers’ market and a couple of supermarkets. Closer to home, there’s a farm shop in Fordmore or the pub and shop/post office in Kentisbeare, all within walking distance. Facilities here are simple, as you’d expect from a small site, but guests have access to male and female toilet and shower blocks, a chemical disposal point and a recycling area.

Electric grass pitch

Liked: Nice and quiet, which is a bonus when staying with younger children. Toilets were clean and very close. A nice distance away from the M5 but close enough that it didn’t take long to get onto it.

Brian M. Sept 2023

Non-electric grass touring pitch

Liked: It was just the one night, and a very last minute decision, also being in a completely self contained rig with my own shower toilet etc I didn't use any of the on site facilities but it all looked good and clean and everything you need. Postwood Gardens is a great little site, very quiet, didn't meet the owners but got really good instructions the guy was very helpful. I would definitely stay again and probably will, especially at this offer price. Actually got to say really like the fact you get a code to the gate and your just left to choose your pitch, obviously not just any, you are given a few to choose from.

Disliked: Nothing

Non-electric grass touring pitch

Liked: I nice quiet site with friendly owners. Clean tidy toilet block with excellent shower. Stayed for a wet wild couple of days but moved motorhome off easily due to a well drained field. Easy access from M5. Would return again.

Disliked: Failed to get a TV signal which meant watching the rugby on my phone 😭.

Rhisiart H. Sept 2023

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked: For us it was the ideal place to break the journey to Cornwall. A quiet, clearly marked out site, sheltered by trees and with a clean toilet/ shower block. Hot water in the taps. There is also a place to wash dishes. I felt glad scrambling around putting pegs in that the camping area is dog free. Good value for money.

Disliked: Only one male toilet & shower so you need to be ready to wait a little at busy times, but generally not a real problem.

Electric grass pitch

Liked: Easy location off the M5 would make an excellent stopping off point. The toilet block is what you would expect and immaculate . Peaceful with deer and owls. Very friendly and helpful host with eggs, veg and fruit on site. Informal ( we don’t like regimented sites) but professional service😃. This site is developing an additional shower block which would be lovely but what they already have is perfectly adequate.

Local attractions

It might be that you’re a savvy fisher already or you’re looking to dip your toes in for the first time. Either way, with Goodiford Mill Fishery (five minutes’ drive) practically around the corner, you’ll be well-set here. It’s just one of a few places close by that make up a unique set of holiday activities – these include the working Coldharbour Mill’s interactive museum (10 minutes), driving real-life diggers at Diggerland Devon (10 minutes) or the family-friendly assault course challenge on The Bear Trail (10 minutes). These activities already make some good action for any kids in your group, but Crealy Theme Park (20 minutes) has much more on that front, as does a good horse-drawn barge trip down the Tiverton Canal (15 minutes) or a detour to the entertainment facilities in Exeter city centre (25 minutes). A natural playground can be found at Sidmouth beach (half an hour). There’s kayaking or canoeing rental here but for cycling and walking (off the coastal path, that is), Exmoor National Park (35 minutes) is a sound choice. Historical sites also live on around here and that includes the National Trust’s Killerton (15 minutes), a huge 18th-century estate, and the Victorian Knightshayes Court (20 minutes), both royally good for walks and picnics.
