Lemonford Caravan Park

Positiv Absolutely NOTHING!!!

Negativ Absolutely EVERYTHING!! This place is nothing like it's advertised to be. Forget those idyllic pictures on Pitch Up's pages - this place is a filthy, unsafe, health hazard - populated with traveller types, who appear to be there permanently.
The showers and toilets were absolutely filthy, with faeces all over the toilets and no locks on ANY of the doors - as a woman, I was not safe, with drunk men wandering around, two of who accosted me outside the toilet.
There was rubbish everywhere - piles of it and the whole place stank of it, not to mention the smell of drugs. There was also definite evidence of a rodents infestation.
The noise throughout the night from barking dogs, drunk people and unruly children made sleep impossible.
We'd paid £168 to stay 4 nights - we stayed for 1, and got out of there as soon as we could.
Please do yourselves a favour and STAY AWAY from this disgusting, unsafe, filthy dirty, horror of a campsite.

Positiv None

Negativ Shared sit with traveller. Not what I expected.place was completely disgusting.shower block and toilets was not fit for normal humans. The sit was like a building sit. Never go back again. You should take it off pitch up. My 10 year old grandson was asked by a group of 8kids if he has stolen any thing in his life and was he a traveller he said NO. Every night they keep corning him he did not Feel safe. Using are toilets as well as the lady next door toilet as well not safe at all😡

Positiv Nothing

Negativ All the dirt and poo and rubbish that was absolutely everywhere all in toilets shower room was dirty toilets were broken campsite was a builders yard travellers made a fire and fire brigade were called absolutely abhorrent holiday . No staff on around on site no cleaners nothing. Never will we go back

Positiv This time, very little. There is what appears to be a traveller community who are permanent residents of the site. I hate to sound racist but while the adults seemed quite friendly their children most certainly were not. My daughters were bullied assaulted the first night there, simply because they had red hair. Thy were physically pulled to the ground by their hair and had their heads banged into the floor. There's no one on site ever to complain to and with the utmost respect you're hardly likely to complain to a community who are stack against you.

Negativ Lack of control of resident clientele. males youths being in the female toilet block. no one on site to address problems. We were booked in for later this month for a return visit. so bad was our experience this time we've regrettably cancelled the second week due to safety concerns for our children.

Positiv Nothing

Negativ Booked in for two nights but left after the first night camping site grass covered rubbel n had trouble getting in tent pegs
Next to a road n noisy
Lots of building work going on with pitches diggers n work people all over mud pulled in road ways
There seamed to be a large group of travellers community there lots of unruly children running around and noisy who liked playing in the toilets
Toilets were very dirty no toilet roll or hand towels. floor was flooded with water toilet roll and other empty wash stuff left on work tops and floor tiles were dirty and falling off some missing hear n there
Shop there had no food n very little else there

Positiv Reasonably priced. Flat pitch with hard pitch for your vehicle beside.

Negativ Could hear the A38 from the camping fields so would recommend ear plugs.
Toilet block wasn’t fully stocked, there was no soap and limited toilet roll. There was a bonfire one night which was smoky which stunk out the field and therefore my tent.

Positiv Nothing, the reviews made us not go !

Negativ We planned to stay here in our caravan, then read the reviews on “Trip Advisor”.
I would strongly advise you do, before paying.

Positiv Not a lot

Negativ No direction signs went down few roads on site which I had to reverse out of. There was nobody on site to seek advice and the person on the phone was no help at all.

Positiv It was close to where we needed to go.

Negativ We were disappointed, although the site had all the facilities that someone touring would need, it had the feel of being unloved.
Toilets, cold, but reasonable clean.
Some doors hanging off in the loos, welcome was adequate, but didn't feel welcome.
It seems that the site was being used by workers from out of the area. Road noise was very noticeable. We could list more.
My disappointment is caused by the comparison visits to other campsites, the previous two were better cared for and cheaper! We paid £36 and being that is out of season!
We very sad to have to post this as we like to be positive.

Positiv The site was easy to find and withing good reach of Buckfast Abbey & Plymouth. Theres a lovely circular walk byt the stream & up to the village church.
The pitches are level and have their own water supply.

Negativ Unfortunately we were disappointed with our stay which prior to going there we had extended for 2 nights.
There was no one at reception so we had to hunt around to find someone who could help us on arrival.
The reception /shop opened when it felt like it which was not often.
We were not given any site plan or info ar all.
Our pitch was close to an Elsan point which was blocked and smelly for most of the time we were there and we had reported it on the 1st day to be told that it was a regular occurance.
The shower blocks were not inviting, old tiles, in the ladies every shower had missing tiles in the main area, we did not feel happy to use them.
Fireworks were let of with no prior warning, fortunately our dog is not scared of them but it could have been a different story if he had been.
Our general feeling coming away was that with very little money spent for the touring side of the business that it could be improved no end, the statics with their own facilities seemed to take priority and the rest..well we will take your money but make no effort for your stay.
Needless to say, we wont be returning.
