  • Large adults-only park next to Chudleigh Knighton Nature Reserve
  • About 5 minutes' drive from Chudleigh Knighton and Bovey Tracey
  • Walking paths from the site; 10 minutes' drive from Dartmoor
Whether you've decided that your next trip is going to be all about sitting yourself down in stunning surrounds or strolling through them, have either – or both – at the adults-only Oakmoor Touring Park. This quiet and peaceful place set up by a couple of keen campers is in three acres of Devon countryside next to a wooded section of a Wildlife Trust nature reserve. Walks can start off from the site towards the nearby village of Chudleigh Knighton (a 20-minute stroll) and lead through Chudleigh Knighton Heath’s gorse, heather and grassland on the Ant Trail, taking around an hour all in all. To roam further, go forth towards Bovey Heathfield and Little Bradley Ponds nature reserves from the heath on a four and a half-mile hike in lush Devon countryside; the park's also about a five-minute drive from Bovey Tracey, the gateway to Dartmoor National Park, if an especially lengthy amble around the tors is what you're after. And if it’s mainly lazing you're after, resting comes into play on the flat pitches with fresh air and views of grassy meadows all around. You can lie back and rest while waiting for wildlife to appear: the owners have spotted species including deer, wild ducks and rabbits at this pretty park. Of course, it can’t all just be relaxing or rambling… when practicalities need organising, an essentials store is on site and a shop and pub are in Chudleigh Knighton. The park also has spacious showers, a washing-up area and baby changing facilities.

What customers say

Oakmoor's a top spot for a quiet getaway. Expect spotless facilities & roomy, flat sites. Owners are super friendly & helpful, making for a chilled, well-kept park. Adults-only. Minor gripes about shower size & road noise, but most loved it and want to come back.

Powered grass and gravel caravan site

Liked Nice level pitches, owners very friendly and helpful, toilets and showers very clean, water points fairly close, good value for money, lovely pub in walking distance through the wood, lots of places to visit nearby.

Disliked Very slight traffic noise from the road, as others have said the showers are compact, but on the plus side they are well maintained and the water was hot.

Very quiet site which is lovely for a break away. Will 100% return in the future and would highly recommend to anyone. Book up you won't be disappointed.

Powered grass and earth site

Liked Adult only
If you want peace and quiet this is the place to be.
Lovely walk to the village via the ant trail and good for the dogs too.
Fair size on site dog walking field.
Spotless, with added free extras such as women and men’s personal care products.
Even a shower mat which was a wonderful touch.
Hosts extremely friendly and hospitable.
Would absolutely recommend.

Disliked Nothing really to dislike I’d say, however better sign posting as you approach the site as we did overshoot the turning.

Powered grass and earth site

Liked The site owners are warm and friendly and helpful. The pitches are generous in size and some the flatest pitches i have stayed on. There is a useful shop on reception which sells the basics at reasonable prices. There is good security on site with electric barriers for entry and departure. (Don't forget your refundable £10 cash for your key fob). The toilet and shower block was clean with plenty of facilities. Overall a great campsite with loads of great places to visit nearby like Teignmouth and Brixham.
I can't wait to come back again.

Local attractions

It really is all about the rambles from this site… the traditional Devonshire village of Hennock, sitting 800 feet above the Teign valley, is under 10 minutes’ drive for treks around the Trenchford, Tottiford and Kennick reservoirs (plus plenty of pubs) while Stover Park’s 114 acres of woodland, heathland, grassland, lake and marsh is five minutes south next to a golf course. The traffic-free Stover Trail passes through here and links the historic town of Bovey Tracey with Newton Abbot; if you’re riding a bike, stop off at the cycle-friendly café in the former, which has indoor parking (about a 20-minute journey on two wheels). Also near this spot is the Dartmoor Whisky Distillery if you’re curious about checking out what Devonshire-made booze tastes like. For long journeys on foot or the saddle, The Templar Way starts off at Teigngrace (10 minutes’ drive), coming close to Oakmoor Touring Park and stretching on for around 18 miles towards rocky Hay Tor on Dartmoor.
