What customers say
This is a small, peaceful campsite offering a relaxed atmosphere, natural surroundings, and a beautiful setting. Visitors praise the clean, hot showers and well-maintained facilities, including washing-up areas and a communal fridge/freezer. Amenities like hammocks, swings, and a stream provide entertainment for children. Easy access to Dartmoor and local walks are highlighted, as is the helpful information board. Some guests noted road noise and issues with shower water temperature and sewage smells, which the manager has stated will be addressed. Unmarked non-electric pitches have led to occasional overcrowding concerns.

Anonymous Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Friendly hosts who made available fire bowls and logs for hire. Plenty of hot water, community fridge and freezer. Clean shower and toilet block.
Level easy access pitches.
Semi wild simple camp site. Possibly the loudest dawn chorus I’ve ever experienced at 4am😁.
Disliked Press button showers a bit temperamental.
Slight road noise from A30 and also high flying airliners.

Anonymous Electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked We had an electric hook up for our campervan, it was a nice pitch and not crowded. Very small, quiet campsite with good amenities of shower and washing up area. Very laid back vibe, great to explore the beautiful countryside around and easy to get to Castle Drogo nearby,
