What customers say
This adults-only campsite is praised for its exceptional cleanliness and peaceful atmosphere. Visitors highlight the friendly and helpful staff, well-maintained pitches, and modern facilities, including spotless showers and toilets. Its convenient location for exploring Dartmoor and the surrounding area is frequently mentioned. The dog-friendly approach, complete with a secure dog walking area, is also a popular feature. While some note occasional road noise due to its proximity to the A30, this is generally not considered a major issue. Many guests express a desire to return, citing it as a top choice.

Aires overnight (roadside) electric optional hardstanding motorhome pitch
Liked Excellent clean site with lovely facilities. Stayed on the aire, and idea more sites need to adopt. Walking or cycling from the site. Good spot to explore from.
Disliked Steep electric price. Maybe metered electric on the aires could be considered. £6 per night is what I would use in a week on other metered sites in the warmer months.

From the manager: Many thanks for your kind review. With regards to the cost of electric. All of our pitches are electric optional except our Fully Serviced Pitches. This means that we can keep the price of the pitches cheaper ie Aires Roadside Electric Optional Pitch is £18 per night. This is actually cheaper than Exmouth Sea front. However we are pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us. Best wishes from Leigh and David.

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked Just had a brilliant week at this great little site. Good location to explore Dartmoor and beyond. Immaculately maintained with spotless shower block and washing up areas. Pretty enclosed dog walk, which proved to be Jack Russell proof...... We had delicious steaks, bacon and a pork pie from Oinkers Farm Shop, which is adjacent to the site.
The owners Leigh and David are friendly, hard-working and genuinely care. Regularly walking the site to check everyone is happy and having a good stay

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked What a lovely site! We stayed on Pitch 8, which was a nice size and conveniently located next to The Bothy, perfect for a sneaky game of pool or two.
The shower and toilet blocks were always spotlessly clean and well maintained throughout our stay, which really made a difference to our overall comfort. It's clear that hygiene and cleanliness are a top priority here.
The onsite store was well stocked with common grocery and household items, but also carried some really useful caravan accessories (which I needed!).
And what a bonus with the Dog Park! It's evident that Leigh and David go above and beyond in maintaining the site and all the facilities.
We stayed for ten nights with our dogs and we will definitely be returning.
Highly recommended!

Non-electric grass tent pitch (backpacker)
Liked Great value. A Good clean site that’s not oversized. Well kept by friendly accommodating hosts. Facilities reflect the size and purpose of the campsite, more than adequate.
Disliked Nothing to dislike.
