Welcoming site with splendid sea views a 15-minute drive from Salcombe
South West Coast Path five minutes’ drive; Dartmoor Zoo 45 minutes
Shop selling local produce; five minutes’ drive from a beach

Splendid beaches, sheltered coves and spectacular coastal trails are all within fairly easy reach at Karrageen Caravan and Camping Park. This welcoming and well-maintained Devon site is only about five minutes’ drive from pretty Hope Cove, a popular spot for watersports and watching the sunset. Grass pitches occupy a large field with views of the English Channel. Guests can light up a barbecue for dinner, having sourced some grillables from the on-site shop (which also has an off-licence), from the supermarket on the A381 road (five minutes’ drive) or from Salcombe (15 minutes). If you feel lazy (after all, that’s what being on holiday is all about, right?), you can eat out at the nearest restaurant in Bolberry (five minutes by car or a 20-minute walk), and there’s also a pub serving food in Hope Cove. From Hope Cove, it’s also possible to join the South West Coast Path on an exploration of Devon’s splendidly rugged coastline. A 35-minute hike takes you to Palmers Point Lookout, while heading north takes you to National Trust - South Milton Sands (25 minutes’ walk), with a wide beach backed by the South Huish Wetlands Reserve, a freshwater lake that attracts ducks and geese, as well as summer warblers. On-site amenities include a toilet/shower block with facilities for disabled guests, a washing-up area, a launderette and a communal fridge-freezer.

What customers say

This campsite boasts lovely views, spacious pitches, and a great welcome. Guests highlight the cleanliness of facilities, including showers and toilets, and appreciate the peaceful atmosphere. The location is considered excellent, with easy walks to Hope Cove and surrounding areas. Some guests found the roads to access the site narrow. A recurring point is the charging system for hot water in showers and washing-up areas, which some found irritating, although others understood the necessity due to the spring water supply.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked Amazing views of surrounding landscape and sunsets from the top field.
Great facilities with spotless washrooms. Didn't mind having monet ready to use showers. Nice touch to have free shower gel and hand soap available.
Site shop has everything you'll ever need.
WiFi was a little patchy but you could access it at certain points round site so it actually allowed us some 'phone detox'!

Electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Very lovely site, great host. Clean and tidy.

Disliked Needed to pay for hot water when washing up and showering. Have paid for showers before but not washing up! A little bit odd.
Long way from anywhere, which is perfect if you want that.

A well run clean site perfect location shame about hot water charges

Electric grass touring pitch

Liked loved the setting, suited us as a couple with a dog. We walked the costal paths to Salcombe in one direction and to the dog off lead beach of South Milton in the other. Site was excellently laid out with hedges separating the different areas some quite hilly pitches though. We welcomed our shady pitch as did our dog! Facilities were immaculate. During our stay a pop up Thai van sold food, which was delicious.

Disliked paying 20p for showers due to being told they were on spring water. I was told it was a minimum of 2 x 20p for a shower (written on the instructions i was given) but i could get away with 1 x 20p. I felt the site is already expensive an then having to pay this extra even for washing up was a bit too much. Sadly a car was needed to purchase food as there isn't a local shop within walking distance. Wifi hit and miss especially at peak times of the day

Lovely site, would return. Just bring lots of 20 pences!

Electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Friendly and attentive hosts who want you to have an excellent stay and are very open to feedback. Beautiful setting with great walking on the doorstep. Very useful shop with fresh bread and pastries available to order. Facilities kept pristine.

Disliked Water is supplied from a spring so the owners ration water usage through charging for showers and washing-up. Trouble is that it's difficult to get hot water in the wash-up area without spending 40p a time!

Liked Friendly atmosphere, stunning location, our plot provision was carefully thought out and allocated providing lots of shade based on the fact we had multiple dogs and a young child.
Excellent facilities available. Would highly recommend and definitely will be returning.

Electric grass touring pitch

Liked Beautiful view, friendly staff and wonderful sunset.

Disliked Toilets/ showers were often left in a state .Not the owners fault, people seem happy to leave them dirty .but think maybe a mid morning and a late afternoon clean instead of just one miday clean up might work better .
Shower,s not that many ,and they didnt seem to work all that well all of the time, money put in didnt always mean long shower and sometimes water was only luke warm .

Recommend to friends Visit again

A great find

Local attractions

Explore both the rural and coastal landscapes around Salcombe with a visit to National Trust - East Soar (five minutes’ drive). Trails at this nature reserve take in gentle hills with grazing cattle and dramatic cliffs, while the gardens at Overbecks, overlooking Salcombe Estuary, have a collection of subtropical and rare plants. Part of the South Devon National Landscape, Bigbury Beach (35 minutes) is an expanse of sand that (at low tide) acts as a causeway to Burgh Island. The island itself was a favourite destination of Agatha Christie, who wrote (and set) some of her novels here. At high tide, a sea tractor shuttles visitors between the beach and the island. Residents at Dartmoor Zoo (45 minutes) include big cats, colourful exotic birds and several types of geckos. The zoo runs a lively programme of events – from yoga classes and photography workshops to after-hours sessions with talks and music.
