Liked: Good location close to Tavistock and central for travelling to coasts. Easy to find and tow to.
Disliked: Very uneven pitches, shower block not in a good state of repair, only one point on whole site to collect water from and quite a lot of road noise.

Liked: It was our first caravan adventure and we could not have stayed at a better place then the Old Rectory Sarah and Declan the owners were especially welcoming and could not do enough to make our stay a pleasurable one. I would recommend this park to anyone it was quiet with a farm feel about it. Free range chickens and George the pig made the experience for us. Thank you Sarah and Declan

Liked: Wonderful views across Dartmoor. Very peaceful off season. Very friendly hen. The owners were nice, pleasant to chat to, but not intrusive.

Liked: Very friendly, we were given choices on available pitches. Site is quiet although road runs past the site, but traffic was light. Water, waste, recycling all OK. Shop has essentials with plans for more next season...
Disliked: Only one male toilet so you may have to wait...

Power optional grass campsite
Liked: Lovely campsite with some great views. Area we were in each pitch is separated with a hedge which we liked and each pitch was a good size. Facilities were always kept clean. Small store on site for any amenities you may have forgotten. Supermarkets 10mins away but far enough away to not know it's there. WiFi was available and signal was good. Owners very friendly and explained a bit about the area to us. Would definitely recommend.
