  • Family-owned site with spacious pitches on a Devon working farm
  • Within 15 minutes' drive of Exeter and the Jurassic Coast
  • Lots of walks in the local area; 10 minutes' walk to cosy village pub
Surrounded by lovely scenery next to the 14th-century farmhouse on a working farm, you’ll probably feel like you’re completely immersed in rural Devon when you stay at Browns Farm Caravan Park. And indeed you will be – the pitches at this family-owned site are spacious and peaceful, and a short drive away from footpaths for walking alone or with your dog by your side. Other outdoor activities including fishing, golf and horse riding can also be tracked down in the local area. Fittingly for a real rural location, there’s a lovely old pub 10 minutes’ walk away in the local village of Woodbury Salterton for drinks and dinner by the log fire under the traditional beams. There’s much more to this place than purely rural outings though, as it’s in an excellent spot for all sorts of days out. City days in Exeter and sandy ones in Budleigh Salterton require a drive of about 15 minutes or so, and there are plenty of attractions nearby too, from the rides of Crealy Theme Park to the floral displays of Bicton Park Botanical Gardens. Wherever you choose to roam, you’ll be coming back to peaceful pitches backed by hedgerows and with access to handy facilities including wifi, a washing-up area, a launderette, chemical disposal and a bathroom block with toilets and showers (including disabled facilities).

Liked A short break away to Browns Farm over new year and what a nice place to stay, offering a peaceful and welcoming environment in the heart of the beautiful rural Devon countryside.

The owners are friendly, approachable, and clearly take great pride in their site, ensuring everything is clean, well organised, and thoughtfully laid out.

Pitches are spacious and well kept, with excellent facilities that made our short stay comfortable and hassle-free.

Its location is conveniently close to local villages, and for us having the local bus stops 100yrds from it entrance allowed us to leave our Moho on the pitch.

Whether you’re looking for a tranquil retreat or a base to explore the surrounding area, Browns Farm Caravan Park offers a great balance.

Highly recommended

Liked Lovely quiet site, exceptionally clean.

Disliked Perhaps a little night light on site during hours of darkness.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to leave a review we are pleased that you enjoyed your stay. We have lighting in essential areas and are happy for guests to illuminate their own pitch as they wish. To add more permanent lighting to the site would detract from its rural location disturbing the owls in particular and spoiling the view of the stars on a clear night which a lot of guests enjoy. However we do thank you for your thoughts.

Great stay

Liked A small campsite with beautiful scenery and roomy pitches. Good shower and toilet block. Walkable to a lovely pub. Near a great farm shop too.

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to leave a review we are pleased that you had a good stay. As you approach the site there is a sign at the top of the village road on the corner . Our main entrance has one large sign and two small ones either side . Lovely photo of a frosty morning.

You should go if you’re in Devon. Good location.

Local attractions

Time to stretch your legs? The closest spot is Woodbury Common, a mile away and a handy spot for dog walking, but there’s much to explore as the site sits on the edge of the East Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. And of course there’s always the South West Coast Path – the seven-mile stretch from Budleigh Salterton to Sidmouth is a particularly rewarding one. Speaking of the coast, Budleigh Salterton (15 minutes’ drive) is a lovely place for a day out on the sandy beach, but you could also explore the offerings of Exmouth (15 minutes) or Dawlish (half an hour). Keeping it countryside instead, there’s fishing at Hogsbrook Lakes (five minutes), golf at Woodbury Park (five minutes) and the chance to coo over cute animals at either World of Country Life (15 minutes) or The Donkey Sanctuary (20 minutes). To keep the kids entertained for a full day, try the rides, shows, play areas and animal attractions at Crealy Theme Park (five minutes).
