Delightful, spacious and immaculately maintained, Pennymoor has been owned and run by the same family for nearly eighty five years. Located centrally with many towns and beaches only a short drive away, including Bigbury-on-Sea & Burgh Island and the stunning Dartmoor. The site has no clubhouse so is a favourite for those families who want the assurance of a peaceful, carefree holiday. With rental caravans available and plenty of space for your touring caravan, motor home (service point available) or tent, you can soak up the tranquil atmosphere whilst taking in the breathtaking panoramic views of Dartmoor and the Devon countryside. There is a well stocked shop/Cafe offering refreshments and takeaway food; Gas, Wifi, and equipped children's play area; a recipe for happy children and happy parents. There is a well equipped amenities block, including baby changing stations, laundry room, under cover dishwashing areas, dedicated room for the disabled. Free hot water in the showers, handbasins and dishwashing facility. Our hire fleet of 2 and 3 bedroom caravans are well equipped; duvets are provided, you just need to bring your bed linen, towels and tea towels.
