"Enjoy camping in Devon at our Tavistock Camping and Caravanning Club Site. You'll be able to marvel at the glorious views of Dartmoor National Park, walk or cycle through breath-taking landscapes and visit the town of Tavistock, where you can indulge in great food and see grand architecture.
Our Tavistock campsite accommodates all camping units, welcomes pets, has a children's play area, an on-site shop and many more handy facilities."
Lying on the edge of the astounding beauty of Dartmoor National Park, Tavistock Club Site is a home-from-home for walkers, cyclists, and nature lovers. From the rolling wilderness of the moors to the ancient market town that the site is named after, Tavistock will help you rediscover your appetite for adventure.
Spacious and accommodating
This spacious campsite can accommodate all unit types and features modern facilities, including laundry, a washing-up area, and two large, enclosed dog walks. There are even some holiday cottages available to hire adjacent to the site. It’s the ideal rest spot to relax after a hard day’s hiking on Dartmoor or a day of sightseeing.
Better than five-star camping
Cyclists can join National Cycle Route 274 (Ilfracombe to Plymouth) just 200 yards from the site, while walkers can plan awe-inspiring ambles at the Dartmoor National Park visitor centre in Princetown. On the banks of the River Tavy lies the world heritage town of Tavistock, with grand architecture and cosy places to eat and drink. As the sun begins to set, don’t forget to look up and take in the majestic beauty of the night sky – Dartmoor is known for its dark skies.
