  • Family-run Devon site off the A3122 road, two miles from Dartmouth
  • Blackpool Sands 10 minutes’ drive; Dartmoor National Park half an hour
  • Spacious dog-friendly pitches; bus stop just outside
Coastal 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 four-legged companion) is part of a farm that’s surrounded by the stunning south Devon countryside and easily accessed from the main A3122 road to Dartmouth (five minutes’ drive). The harbour town’s shops, activities, attractions and restaurants 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 to keep you busy, especially if you take a ferry across the River Dart 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 Woodlands Family Theme Park, huge sandy beaches like Blackpool Sands, Paignton 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 (20 minutes) and Salcombe (35 minutes), or the fishing village of Brixham (25 minutes). 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 a dog park as well as a clean and modern bathroom block with accessible facilities.

What customers say

Clean, modern facilities with underfloor heating & great showers. Spacious, level pitches, some with picnic tables. Nice countryside views & very dog-friendly (secure field). Easy access to Dartmouth via bus. Friendly management seeks feedback. Wi-Fi can be spotty; walking to amenities might be tricky for road safety.

Power optional grass campsite

Liked Generous pitches all with a breathtaking view and stunning sunrises and sunsets! Water taps at the pitch which makes it very easy. Wonderfully warm and pristine facilities block, adding that extra layer of comfort! Abi was super welcoming and hospitable, thanks for a superb stay! We will be back as we only just scratched the surface of local attractions after 4 days stay. Sainsbury’s nearby which has late opening hours which made it very convenient. With the views and quiet site, we really felt relaxed and had a great escape - we loved it!

Power optional grass and gravel campsite

Liked A superlative site that wholly lives up to its top reviews. Large well maintained pitches, with water, drainage and even electric car charging at the bollard. Super views across the valley.

The recently built sanitation block is top class and is immaculately maintained.

The bus stop at the entrance is a game changer with a short ride into Dartmouth and a slightly longer one into Totnes. Both two excellent days out.

Abby and family are the key to the site’s success. Lovely hosts on their working farm. Helpful and sociable without being intrusive.

Local attractions

There are multiple areas to explore at Woodlands Family Theme Park (five minutes’ drive), so if the kids (or you…) are into testing your agility skills, you might want to check out the Ninja Zone, with climbing walls and net bridges; if you’re into thrills, the Cyclone Canyon Zone has watercoasters and toboggan runs. There are also falconry displays and a zoo farm. The harbour at Brixham (25 minutes) is home to a full-size replica of the Golden Hind, the 16th-century galleon that sailed around the world under Sir Francis Drake. Walk along the Brixham Breakwater, which stretches half a mile into Tor Bay, for expansive views of the town. Dartmoor National Park (half an hour) has plenty of top spots where you can indulge your active passions, whether you’re into hiking, cycling, horse riding or canoeing. Otters, bats and cuckoo birds are among the many wildlife species inhabiting the park’s open moorlands, bogs and woodland.
