Caravan touring pitch with a view (added by manager 11 Sep 2023)

View of wimbleball lake from haddon hill

Relaxing on site, spacious camping pitches

Flowers around the site and near the reception

Well stocked shop, clean shower block, telephone box.

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.

Liked: Even before we arrived the service was 2nd to non, regular communication regarding our route and planned road works. On arrival we were greeted by Rob and Karen who were very informative and helpful. The site is immaculate, well run and maintained, a special mention for the best WIFI I’ve found on any site. Had a great few days out and about as well as chilling on site. The pub on the doorstep is also superb, food amazing and great staff.

A - fully-serviced concrete and grass caravan site

Liked: Lovely location, friendly wardens, pristine site, clean toilet and shower block. Handy for exploring Somerset and Devon. The open top bus from Blue Anchor to Ilfracombe is a must as is a cycle ride around Wimble Ball Lake. The pub near the site is also a must.

Disliked: Motorhome grey water point.

Liked: Superb site made all the better by Caz and Rob who met us on arrival, nothing too much trouble in assisting us onto the pitch. Would highly recommend but do check the food service times on the adjacent Pub. Immaculate facilities on a small adult only dog friendly site.
