Liked: On arrival we were given a very friendly welcome and given a choice of pitches (it was early March and quiet). First impressions were very good. The site is well maintained and the shower block very clean. The site is situated right beside The Granite Way which was ideal for our cycle rides to Lydford and beyond and gave great walking access to Yes Tor. The Pump and Pedal cafe/bike shop next door serves good food and has knowledgeable staff for fixing bikes. There is also a petrol station with Waitrose shop less than a mile away.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite
Liked: Well laid out site. Very neat, clean and tidy. Good instructions prior to arrival. Owner Steve and caretaker Dave were both very friendly and helpful. A few up grades needed but can see that some of these are in hand as current owners only took over this year. Excellent access to the moor from the site for walking and also cycle routes. Bus stop just 5 mins walk from the site into Tavistock or Okehampton. Due to the excellent access there is a little noise from the A30 but to be honest this wasn’t disruptive to my visit. Would definitely come again.
Disliked: No recycling bins except for glass so would be nice to see those and as the site is very dog friendly then perhaps a couple of dog poo bins on site . Otherwise generally a great place to visit.
