  • Family-run Devon site just off the main road two miles from Dartmouth
  • Blackpool Sands and Woodlands Family Theme Park within 10 mins' drive
  • Spacious dog-friendly pitches; bus stop just outside
Coast walks, beach days, outdoor adventures, family days out… whatever it is that brings you to this part of Devon, you’ll have a great base at Dartmouth Caravan Park. This family-friendly site (which also welcomes your family dogs) is part of a farm that’s surrounded by the stunning south Devon countryside and easily accessed from the main road to Dartmouth. The harbour town’s shops, activities, attractions and places to eat are a couple of miles away, and there’s a handy bus stop just outside the site for easy trips to town via public transport. Dartmouth itself has plenty of things to keep you busy, especially if you take a ferry across the river to explore all the things on the Kingswear side as well. It’s far from the only option for a day out though – in fact, this area is pretty packed with things to do, with huge sandy beaches, a theme park, a zoo and the huge expanse of Dartmoor National Park all within a half-hour drive. And that’s before you’ve even planned trips to nearby towns like Totnes and Salcombe or the fishing village of Brixham. That’s a lot to fit in, so it’s good to know that Dartmouth Caravan Park is comfortable enough to settle in for several days, with spacious pitches that have access to wifi and a dog park as well as a clean modern bathroom block with accessible facilities.

Power optional grass and gravel campsite

Liked Very spacious, Immaculate facilities. A lovely quiet area with mountain views.
We loved the added benefit of the secure dog field, which was easy to access.
Water tap at each plot.
I did ask for a position closer to the facilities block due to health issues and We needed to arrive at a date later than planned, this was easy to communicate and this was no issue. All our needs were met.
We pitched a tent on a grassed area with an additional gravel area and would recommend others to take stronger pegs than standard if this is your plan. We were prepared from past experiences.

Power optional grass campsite

Liked The pitches are level , it's all new as is about 20 weeks old ( so bearing that in mind)
Huge wash room and toilets facilities.

It has electric pointed for your cars on each. Supply pitch .
Good dog exercise field with dog poo bin

Disliked The toilets have music on to loud! Already mentioned to them !
When we arrived we weren't met on the pitch to tell us about the site and where the grey waste had to go.

No laundry facility,
The shower was spraying too far out and needs a shower head that points right down .
And had to press the water button on felt like every 30 seconds to keep the water on.
So a few adjustments to be made but generally 4/5 for everything.
The pitch fees are too expensive for per night .
