  • Family-run Devon site just off the main road two miles from Dartmouth
  • Blackpool Sands and Woodlands Family Theme Park within 10 mins' drive
  • Spacious dog-friendly pitches; bus stop just outside
Coast walks, beach days, outdoor adventures, family days out… whatever it is that brings you to this part of Devon, you’ll have a great base at Dartmouth Caravan Park. This family-friendly site (which also welcomes your family dogs) is part of a farm that’s surrounded by the stunning south Devon countryside and easily accessed from the main road to Dartmouth. The harbour town’s shops, activities, attractions and places to eat are a couple of miles away, and there’s a handy bus stop just outside the site for easy trips to town via public transport. Dartmouth itself has plenty of things to keep you busy, especially if you take a ferry across the river to explore all the things on the Kingswear side as well. It’s far from the only option for a day out though – in fact, this area is pretty packed with things to do, with huge sandy beaches, a theme park, a zoo and the huge expanse of Dartmoor National Park all within a half-hour drive. And that’s before you’ve even planned trips to nearby towns like Totnes and Salcombe or the fishing village of Brixham. That’s a lot to fit in, so it’s good to know that Dartmouth Caravan Park is comfortable enough to settle in for several days, with spacious pitches that have access to wifi and a dog park as well as a clean modern bathroom block with accessible facilities.

What customers say

This is a new, highly-rated site offering immaculate, modern facilities and stunning countryside views. Pitches are generously sized, often with water and EV charging. Its location near Dartmouth is a significant draw, with a convenient bus stop on-site. While some mention it's not the cheapest, guests consistently praise the cleanliness, friendly and helpful staff, and overall tranquil atmosphere, with many planning to return. Minor points include a desire for more information signage and a wish for longer shower times.

Electric optional grass and gravel pitch

Liked It’s a new site, I believe this year 2025.. All the bathroom facilities are lovely and brand new. The gravel and grass double pitches seem to be level and are generously sized. Nice soft loo paper too!
The free WiFi is solid and reliable, it looks like a star link system. The site is not huge, about 25 pitches I think. It is right next door to another site.
Has a black water service point, but not clear if that’s also the grey water as well. It’s a couple miles outside Dartmouth, so only a 10 minute drive. You pass a big Sainsbo and Lidl as you go into town.

Disliked Optional Electric fixed price seemed a bit on the expensive side. Would have preferred a metering option, as our usage is low but necessary.
