  • 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.

What customers say

New, top-rated site with spotless modern amenities & great views. Spacious pitches, often with water/EV charging. Handy Dartmouth location with on-site bus stop. Pricier for some, but guests rave about cleanliness, staff, and peace. Most will return. Want more signs & longer showers.

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked Absolutely fantastic park, just a 5 minute drive to Dartmouth itself, beautiful picturesque town, plenty of pubs, restaurants and shops, got the ferry and drove to Brixham, well worth the visit
Had the pleasure of meeting Abi the owner, she likes a chat😂😂. Gave us some great advice and suggestions where to eat (Breakfast at Alfresco was top notch)
Hot showers, immaculately clean and hairdryers an added bonus according to Hannah
Even an enclosed field for the dogs to have a run around in
I can’t write this review without mentioning Abi’s mums honey, on sale in the amenities building, beautiful.
It’s a 10 outta 10 from Hannah and myself 👌

Electric optional grass and gravel pitch

Liked Great new site with amazing views from the pitch,the shower/toilet facilities are probably the best we have seen on our travels.Only 2miles from Dartmouth with a bus stop right outside so very convenient as there are no pavements so walking is not an option.We also had a good tv signal onsite and good free Wi-Fi,we will definitely will be returning.

Disliked Nothing to dislike but the showers could do with a small wall rack for shower gel and maybe a bit longer time on shower so not having to keep pressing the button. But not a big deal just an observation.

Electric optional grass and gravel pitch

Liked We had the most fantastic stay here!!! The facilities lodge was spotless, it had disabled and family shower rooms aswell, washing up area was always clear!! The owners are some of the nicest people you could meet, always had time to talk and anything you asked of them they tried their absolute best to accommodate, they even took the time to let our little ones help feed the new piglets.
The views are outstanding which you can sit and look at whilst in the dog exercise area, the location is second to none with 2 supermarkets on your door step and dartmouth less than a 10 minute drive 1 way and the woodlands family them park another, there is just so much to do in every direction around this site.
