What customers say
Lovely spot, close to Exmouth beach & town. Spacious, private pitches. Immaculate loos & showers, super staff. Peaceful, though lanes can be tight & a bit of WiFi bother.
Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews




















A brilliant place to pitch up to explore the Jurassic Coast
Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch (maximum 7 metres)
Liked A brilliant site - walking distance to the beach with accessible coastal and country walks nearby. Food options in Exmouth were great, as was the cafe and bar on site. The showers were warm, clean and plentiful. Great owners and a decent sized pitches.

Mixed feelings about this site.....
Maximum 7.5 meters electric grass pitch
Liked Great location - an easy bike or walk into Exmouth
Lovely rural surroundings
Friendly service
New toilet and showering facilities with high levels of cleanliness
Disliked Unpleasant smell (sometimes overwhelming) of sewage. There is a sewage treatment plant nearby. Despite the many positives of the site, this would prevent me from considering staying here again
The showers (there are 8) can't cope with all being in use at the same time - the water stops or reduces to a dwindle
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Thank you for your feedback. South West Water have become a thorn in our side. The smell can be and normally is contained but for some reason this has not been the case in the past week. Rest assured they have been contacted with an official complaint which also includes our camper complaints (camper complaints being anonymous).
The shower pressure is being addressed, we are just awaiting on the plumbers.
Please don't let this put you off coming to stay with us.
Great Site we will stay again
Maximum 7.5 meters electric grass pitch
Liked Site very clean, shower & toilet block good, friendly staff, washing-up area loads hot water, well marked pitches, quiet rural location but pub & superstore close by, close to beach 10 minute bike ride,
Disliked Plugs in basins didn't hold water for long so wasted hot water
Some of the basin push down cold taps need servicing they ran for ages.

Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch (maximum 7 metres)
Liked nothing unpaid babysitter parent brought his kids to the field we was on and told them to play by our plot . While parents getting drunk in the far side of the other field
we was the only people on the field as the other campers went to a private party.
Was told if we left we would get a refund. This was 645pm
But she just got snotty and emails saying its a children and dog friendly site
Disliked bag of dog poo and empty can of cider in pitch next door to us encouraging fly's, wasps and other dog NOT on leads weeing there lovely went to complain but reception closed by 6pm
Hi Nigel. This is Louise, campsite manger at Prattshayes.
Following your call to our emergency number, I went to your allocated pitch 306. Nothing was found. However, I did notice an empty cider can and a dog poo bag on pitch 307. This pitch was already checked in on and the campers were out. You were on the incorrect pitch.We are a dog friendly and family campsite which is mentioned on our website and any third party platforms.
Perhaps we are not the type of campsite you were looking for.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: This booking was from 11/7/25. Why has this taken so long to reach us please?
As the guest pointed out, following their complaint on the phone they were told that this is a family and dog friendly site, also repeated via the email.
Without doubt, this is not the campsite for them.
A refund is not possible in this case as they left on their own accord.
Kind regards,
Louise Whapham (Campsite Manager)
Brilliant stay definitely coming again <3
