  • Award-winning family park close to Dawlish Warren
  • Indoor and outdoor pool, adventure playground, soft play, gym, sauna
  • Well-maintained shower and loo blocks
It’s an award winner, and it’s easy to see why – Devon’s Lady’s Mile near the Blue Flag beaches of Dawlish Warren has all that’s needed for ladies and gentlemen to pitch up. It’s had cracking reviews and full marks for location, cleanliness, facilities, customer service and more, and also has five-star scores for value for money. And there’s more – Lady’s Mile also has an indoor and outdoor pool, an on-site restaurant, a bar, fab play areas for the kids including an adventure playground and soft play area, evening entertainment to croon along to from March to November, a takeaway and even a gym if you feel like working the calories off (or you could just decide to laze by the pool or in the sauna instead). The showers and bath on site are fit for even the most ladylike lady, and there’s also a parent and baby washroom to keep holiday grubbiness off smaller guests. Wifi access is available. Whether you’re off site during your stay is another matter, although there are two pubs within a mile which might prove to be the motivation you need...

Meadow fully-serviced hardstanding touring pitch (super)

Liked: Great friendly staff. Generous size pitches. Number plate recognition security barriers. Immaculate showers/toilets. Well equipped shop. Lovely warm pool and sauna. Steam room was being repaired.

Disliked: Needs hard standing paths to bins. Grass was muddy, very wet and slippery to walk across with refuge. Walked mud back into caravan.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for sharing your feedback! It's great to hear that you enjoyed the friendly staff, spacious pitches, excellent facilities, and warm pool and sauna.

Electric grass pitch

Liked: The whole site was just wonderful, it felt a very safe site to stay at with our 3 young children. Lots for them to do whilst we were there. The weekend we stayed there was a classic car show on which was free, my son absolutely loved seeing all the cars too, so that was a lovely surprise. I would highly recommend this site to anyone who wants to camp. Everything was just perfect.

Disliked: Have absolutely no dislikes for this site.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: It sounds like you had a fantastic experience at the campsite! The safe environment and abundance of activities for children contributed to a memorable stay. The classic car show must have been a delightful bonus for your son. Thank you for sharing your positive experience and recommendation for others seeking a camping destination.

Electric grass pitch

Liked: Great Devon area, Spotless facilities, the site club house, the helpful staff , indoor pool and the sauna , steam room not on?

Disliked: Fact that the outdoor pool closed even though it was the hottest week of the year, more flexible please! Dog exercise area a bit too remote but site was dog friendly so we could walk around anyway.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: It sounds like you had a generally positive experience at the Devon area site, enjoying the spotless facilities, the helpful staff, and the amenities like the indoor pool. However, it's understandable that you were disappointed by the closure of the outdoor pool, especially during the hottest week of the year. Your feedback about wanting more flexibility regarding the outdoor pool closure is valuable for the management to consider for future improvements. Thank you for sharing your experience!

Electric grass pitch

Liked: Everything.. very helpful at reception when we were told that our booking hadn't been actually confirmed through Lady's Mile system.. once they checked on PitchUp system, we were then confirmed but had a worrying few moments awaiting the decision whether we had booked or not.. Apart from that, loved the site and amenities.. Extremely helpful when I had a flat battery on the car and offer to come start it..

Disliked: After a 3 hour drive being informed at reception we haven't a booking and we're 'lucky' to get in..

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: It's wonderful to hear that despite the initial hiccup with the booking confirmation, you enjoyed your stay at the site and appreciated the amenities. It's also great to hear that the staff were extremely helpful, especially when you encountered issues like a flat battery on your car. Thank you for sharing your experience, and we hope any future visits go smoothly from the start!

Electric grass pitch

Liked: Evening entertainment was amazing. Pump track for bikes and scooters was really good. New fish and chip takeaway really good. (Bit pricey 2 cheese-chips 10£). New archade and laundry card working well.Even the arcade ticket is on a same card which you paying with,so no stucked ticket in a machine any more.

Disliked: In a week time of our stay we couldn't find a tap which worked properly.Push down tap not stayed down even for a second,always sprayed yourself with water.Same situation in the washing up area. Really dark site after sunset no street light,need a torch always. Water slides need upgrade,outside pool was freezing even they said it was heated.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for sharing your feedback about your recent stay at Ladysmile Holiday Park. It's great to hear that you enjoyed the evening entertainment and found the new facilities like the pump track, fish and chip takeaway, arcade, and laundry card system to be positive additions to the park. However, I understand your concerns about the issues you encountered during your stay. It's important for taps to work properly in both the washing up area and around the site, as well as having adequate lighting for guests' safety, especially after sunset. Additionally, your feedback on the water slides and outside pool stating they were not up to standard, this something the management may need to address to ensure guests have an enjoyable experience.

Local attractions

Lady’s Mile is a site for the sea and sand fans, as it’s only a mile from two beaches where you can surf, swim, sail or just laze and sunbathe. Golf, fishing, horse riding and tennis are all nearby, or you could indulge in a spot of culture and wander around the nearby National Trust properties A la Ronde and Compton Castle. Want something a little more likely to appeal to the kids? Pack them in the car and take them off to Crealy Great Adventure Park a short drive away, where they can go gaga on the rides or go wild in the indoor jungle. They’ll also enjoy seeing the famous black swans along the River Dawlish, bumping along on the seafront railway, or just sticking close to the beach resort with its pirate-themed mini golf, go-karting, amusements and rides.
