Wheeldon Farm: Visitor image of sunset view

General

  • Family-oriented park between Dartmoor and the south Devon coast
  • A 15-minute drive from Totnes and half an hour from Plymouth
  • Indoor off-road track available to all cyclist guests

Wheeldon Farm is a holiday park in the stunning south Devon countryside geared towards families looking for action-packed motorhome or campervan breaks. Active holidays are easy to come by here: you're roughly equidistant between Dartmoor National Park and the the splendid south Devon coast.

With miles of green lanes to explore starting from your pitch, this is a particularly fine spot for mountain bike and e-bike riders – and you're covered whatever the weather as kids (and big kids too) can spend hours zooming around the farm's all-weather indoor tracks. There's also a small playground and football pitch where younger guests can let off some steam. On top of that, bikes are available to hire on site for adventures through the local countryside.

All guests are welcome to use the modern toilets, hot showers and lounge area. Here, you'll find a washing machine, a large washing-up sink and a coffee machine. Guests are welcome to bring barbecues and firepits.

Well-behaved pets can expect a warm welcome here, with daily walks (or swims) provided by the river Avon. This peaceful spot is just at the end of the green lane that crosses the site, while further afield in the South Hams there's a range of dog-friendly beaches and trails to explore. The nearest shop can be reached within 10 minutes' drive.

Please note

Units longer than 8.5 metres are not allowed.

At least one of the party members must be aged 18 or over.

Tents are not accepted at this park.

Please note that the toilet/shower facilities are unisex.

Guests are advised to bring a good quality torch with them as parts of the site are unlit.

    The Warden was very friendly and we received a warm welcome. It was very quiet when we were there. It's on top of a hill, with great views.

    Disliked: 

    It was narrow lanes to get there.
    The site was very basic and I felt like it was over priced especially as you had to pay for dogs.

From the manager...

Many thanks for your comments - i am surprised you think its overpriced as clean hardstanding in the winter is not easy to find. Also two dogs are included in the price of the pitch.

This peaceful spot is just at the end of the green lane that crosses the site, while further afield in the South Hams there's a range of dog-friendly beaches and walking trails to explore.
