Electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch
Liked: This was a perfect little campsite. We stayed on an electric pitch and it had everything we needed for a long weekend. The toilets and showers were clean and warm. There was a freezer and fresh produce to buy and we especially loved the fire buckets. Great area for walks. We will definitely be back to stay.

Liked: Lovely campsite with all the right facilities. Use of the fridge and kettle wwre very helpful
Lovely to be hidden in the hills away from the wind and to have the option to hire a fire. Would stay here again without contemplating!
Great location to wander into dartmoor or close to a town such as exeter.
Disliked: Could hear the traffic from the road in the distance.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: We loved this campsite, all the basics were covered - hot water in the showers and washing up station and nice flat pitches. Great fire puts. Kids loved the little park area and cycling down the slope. Very convenient location just off A30 and easy for visiting Dartmoor. We will definitely book again.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: On arrival there was a handy information board in reception which not only had details of where had the freedom to pitch, but also plenty of information about their site and surrounding areas. Lots of friendly people on site who stuck to the quiet time. Bonus of being able to build your own fire (off the ground) and you could use the fridge/freezer in reception at your own risk which was good for ice packs. Very peaceful and we look forward to returning and seeing their on site shop opening!!
There is also an honesty box where you could buy wood, hire a fire pit or purchase some goods from their reception such as pasta, beans or hand crafted crochets.

Disliked: Non electric pitches are not marked out in any way and first come first serve pitch up wherever you want on side of field which meant as single parent with child and small tent on second night had family large tent and car pitch up too close for comfort and privacy. Marked out pitches would have been better as felt very overbearing

From the manager: Thank you so much for your review and for the feedback about non electric pitches being unallocated. We are sorry that the system didn't work brilliantly for you this time and will look at how to improve things for 2025. Many thanks, Chinnie and Henry
