What customers say
This campsite offers a relaxing stay with friendly, helpful staff and immaculate facilities, including spotless toilets and showers. Generous pitches and a prime location close to Dawlish Warren, beaches, and public transport are highly praised. On-site food options are a welcome bonus. While a small charge for showers and the occasional slope on pitches were noted, most visitors found the site to be excellent and would happily return.

Badger electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch (large)
Liked An excellent campsite close to Dawlish Warren, spotlessly clean and with lovely facitities. This site has no entertainment hub and this is what makes it special, pure camping for us. We have been many times, but not for a coupke of years, and back during heatwave 3.0 (!) we were very pleased to see a new cafe facility with such friendly staff and a superb bacon bap (amongst many other offerings) for a mere £3! Highly recommended site for those who want a top level pure camping stay.
