Pitches available for touring caravans, motorhomes and tents

Smart family-run park within Woodbury Common
Easy drive into Exeter
Excellent facilities including bar, bistro and play area

They say an Englishman’s (motor)home is his castle – so when choosing where to brake, you’ll want a spot fit for a king. Castle Brake Holiday Park in east Devon should pass muster: it’s a smart, family-run park within the heathland of Woodbury Common, ideally placed for an invasion of Exeter and the sought-after sands of the Jurassic Coast. The facilities are splendid: a spotless, cedar-clad amenities block with underfloor heating and family bathrooms; a laundry room; the Castle Inn bar and restaurant for homemade nosh using local ingredients (takeaways are also available); a play area; and ample space for a peaceful stroll and a bit of wildlife spotting. (Please note that the bar and restaurant are not open every evening during low season.) Castle Brake Holiday Park is within half an hour's walk of the village of Woodbury, which has a handful of good pubs and shops, or it’s an easy ride into Exeter for anything else you might need.

Orchard camping pod (no pets)

Liked: We had the best time at Castle Brake! We loved the peace and quiet, but also had the best time at their sister site, Ladram Bay. We really enjoyed the swimming and had a very tasty carvery. All staff were extremely friendly and helpful.

Disliked: The shower block could use a bit of TLC. Some of the flushes were broken and the showers seemed to be temperamental. Also only one of the family bathrooms had a baby changing unit.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Wow! What a really amazing review, thank you for sharing it with us!! We are so happy you had the best time at Castle Brake, for the peace and quiet, AND our sister site Ladram Bay, for the swim and tasty carvery. We do hope to see yourself and family back again, real soon.

Kind regards

Local attractions

Six miles from Castle Brake Holiday Park are the red cliffs of Budleigh Salterton and the family-friendly sands of Exmouth, gateways to the glories of the Jurassic Coast. A little further along the coast is Sidmouth, which features ravishing Regency architecture along its sweeping esplanade. Whether you’re a culture hound or an outdoorsy creature, there’s plenty to do within easy reach: exit into Exeter, an attractive cathedral city brimming with museums and historic sites, or delve into Dartmoor, for more remote adventures. For splashy and screamy fun, a wilderness woodland, indoor and outdoor adventure play areas, farm animals and more, head to the Crealy Great Adventure Park, a mere four miles up the road from Castle Brake. Or try the World of Country Life, which has a petting zoo, indoor and outdoor rides and slides, vintage steam engines, museums and events as eclectic as welly wanging and the six nations ferret races...
