  • Small peaceful site among the Paignton hills
  • Caravans for hire, all with space for picnic tables
  • Dogs welcome
It's safe to say a bon vista is pretty much guaranteed at this site, as it's set among the Paignton hills with smashing valley views… Bona Vista Holiday Park has static caravans for hire laid out on a one-acre site, all most carefully sited by the owners to make the most of the surrounding scenery, and with lots of extra little touches by the thoughtful family team. (Tea and milk waiting for you on arrival? Yes please.) The park is peaceful and car-free (car parking is at the front), leaving a good bit of space around each caravan for picnic tables and lazing about, and all pathways are lit after dark to keep everyone safe and secure. There's a kids' play area, laundry facilities and clothes airers around the site for guests' use; off site, Bona Vista is only a few miles from the beach and close to Paignton Zoo, Quaywest Waterpark and heaps of bon scenic hikes. And yet more… the Bona Vista amenities have been described by one very happy customer as 'the poshest campsite toilets I have ever seen' and include separate showers and loos for ladies and gents.

What customers say

This is a cosy, homely, and quiet site offering lovely views from the caravans. Guests appreciated the privacy due to car-free areas around the accommodation. The site is easily accessible for exploring local towns and attractions, with good public transport links. The internet connection is excellent. A small TV size was noted as a minor complaint, which the manager has since addressed with upgrades.

1 bedroom static caravan

Liked Lovely and quiet site stayed in a two bedroom caravan with beautiful views,no cars near caravan they had to be parked on car park just yards away so you had privacy around your van , caravan was new and clean had everything you needed microwave full gas oven and hob, small under counter fridge with small freezer compartment , near to supermarkets 5 minutes in car and a bus stop few yards from site to take you into town centre , internet was excellent no problem with our phones and used our Amazon fire stick on our small tv which could have been a lot bigger our only complaint tv was very small ….

Local attractions

Leave the car behind: Bona Vista is near a local bus stop serving the Plymouth to Torquay route and stopping at various popular tourist places on the way like Paignton Zoo, Totnes, and Torquay and Paignton town centres. Boat trips and deep sea fishing are both available from the nearby old fishing village of Brixham, also home of the replica of Sir Frank Drake's circumnavigating ship the Golden Hind. A few golf courses are in the area too, or you could check out other local places to see such as Paignton pier, Goodrington Park and its boating lake, Pennywell Farm, the aquarium Living Coasts, Dartmouth and the Britannia Royal Naval College, and seeing the spectacular sights from Torquay’s Babbacombe Cliff Railway.
