View of wimbleball lake from haddon hill

Relaxing on site, spacious camping pitches

Flowers around the site and near the reception

Small, quiet adults-only site on the edge of Exmoor National Park
Dog-friendly; half an hour's walk from Wimbleball Lake and Haddon Hill
Small shop on site selling essentials; dog-friendly pub next door

Remote, rural, peaceful and just lovely are the boxes you'll tick at Lowtrow Cross Caravan and Camping Park, a small and friendly place close to Wimbleball Lake on the Somerset and Devon borders and on the edge of the spectacular Exmoor National Park. Set over four acres in an area of spectacular scenery, Lowtrow Cross Caravan and Camping Park is an adults-only site set up for guests to have restful and serene stays in a remote setting with easy access to many West Country attractions. Miles of uncrowded walking and cycling trails are easy to access from here, along with fishing, sailing, canoeing and horse riding. If you aim to take things a mite easier while on your peaceful break, Lowtrow Cross Caravan and Camping Park is also in a wildlife and birdwatching haven with an enclosed dog-walking area. The site is great for unwinding and watching the sunset over the moor scenery, and there's also more sky gazing when the sun goes down, as this part of Somerset is prime stargazing territory. (Nearby Exmoor was the first designated International Dark Sky Reserve in Europe too.) Friendly wardens Rob and Karen live on site and are rightly proud of their surroundings: they'll usually be out and about keeping the grounds and facilities tiptop, so give them a shout if you need any help or advice. There's a small shop on site selling essentials and local produce on site. A dog-friendly pub is also next door, just one minutes' walk away.

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked A small adult only site which was exceptionally well kept, quiet, clean and safe. Rob was extremely helpful on arrival with setting up our pitch. Saved us a lot of bother.

Disliked Nothing to dislike - only the pub next door was closed on a Monday and didn’t serve food on a Tuesday…so we were unable to enjoy it. Our issue not theirs - and I understand their business model. 😂
