  • Small family-run Devon site on the edge of the Blackdown Hills
  • Exeter and south coast beaches within a half-hour drive
  • Easy access from the M5 at Cullompton; walk to a pub and farm shop
Whether you fancy fishing, horse-drawn barge trips or climbing tors, Postwood Gardens Touring Campsite and Country Cabins makes for a fine base. This place is a small and peaceful family-run mid Devon site on the edge of the Blackdown Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and five minutes’ drive from Cullompton. The name Cullompton may be familiar to frequent travellers along the M5, and indeed this site is a handy stopover just a few minutes’ drive from the motorway (or indeed from the A303/A30, 15 minutes’ drive away). That said, there’s plenty around to keep you occupied for several days if you choose to settle down for a longer break – this site is in prime position for surfing, fishing, moorland hikes, climbing the tors, beach days, family attractions, cycling outings… Handy amenities are easy to come by too, as Cullompton has a high street full of independent shops, a farmers’ market and a couple of supermarkets. Closer to home, there’s a farm shop in Fordmore or the pub and shop/post office in Kentisbeare, all within walking distance. Facilities here are simple, as you’d expect from a small site, but guests have access to male and female toilet and shower blocks, a chemical disposal point and a recycling area.

What customers say

This peaceful, well-maintained campsite has spacious, level spots & great, clean showers with hot water. Near the M5, it's great for stopovers. Guests loved the friendly owners, quiet vibe & nature. Some noted a few showers/restrooms when busy & dated amenities. Management's addressing concerns.

Primitive grass campsite

Liked Good sized pitches. Location from motorway.

Disliked After arriving we had a look at the toilet/shower facilities and took a short walk up the road. We then decided that we wouldn't stay the night and continued our journey on to Cornwall. This site would have only been a stop over for one night but decided one night would be too much. Certainly don't agree with the reviews that give a high rating. Definitely would not consider booking here in the future. Customer service was a text shortly before we arrived so didn't give a very good first impression.

From the manager: Thank you for sharing your thoughts. We’re sorry to hear you chose not to stay, especially as your visit was very brief and you didn’t experience the site overnight or explore the village and bridleways, which are located in the opposite direction to the main road you walked towards.

This summer’s prolonged dry weather and the local hosepipe ban have unfortunately affected our grass, wildflower area, and spring planting many of which is now dying. These conditions are outside our control, but we continue to care for the grounds within the restrictions.

Our toilet and shower facilities are cleaned and maintained daily, and we encourage guests to let us know immediately if anything needs attention. We’re pleased that over a hundred guests have shared positive reviews reflecting their experience of our facilities, customer service, and peaceful location and we continue my win awards for customer care year in year out. I rung as soon as I thought there was a problem and you told me there was none.

Our toilet and shower facilities are cleaned and maintained daily, and we encourage guests to let us know immediately if anything needs attention.

We’re sorry the site wasn’t what you were looking for on this occasion and wish you well on your onward journey

My son and I had a fabulous time. Absolutely would stay again.

Primitive grass campsite

Liked Lovely warm showers, tranquil and relaxed atmosphere, nice open camping field

Disliked Not a “dislike” as such but if the site was busy there is only one shower and two toilets per gender, so can imagine big queues for facilities at busy times

Liked Peaceful.

Disliked Very dated showers and toilet. Only one per sex.
The toilet waste area was a total disgrace. Filthy dirty and overgrown with weeds and tree waste.
Their is absolutely no water pressure from the field tap.

Primitive grass campsite

Liked Excellent location, easy to find just a few minutes from the motorway junction, services and Tesco for cheaper fuel, either for a planned break in a long journey or emergency stop in the summer when the M5 turns into a car park and the kids or you! go into meltdown 😆

Really flat clean field with neatly mowed grass, electric option, quiet.

Simple but clean shower and toilets. Good water pressure / temperature.

Walkable pub, take out options 5 minute drive in Cullompton.

Good communication from owners with comprehensive text, leave you in peace!

Disliked Nothing.

Local attractions

It might be that you’re a savvy fisher already or you’re looking to dip your toes in for the first time. Either way, with Goodiford Mill Fishery (five minutes’ drive) practically around the corner, you’ll be well-set here. It’s just one of a few places close by that make up a unique set of holiday activities – these include the working Coldharbour Mill’s interactive museum (10 minutes), driving real-life diggers at Diggerland Devon (10 minutes) or the family-friendly assault course challenge on The Bear Trail (10 minutes). These activities already make some good action for any kids in your group, but Crealy Theme Park (20 minutes) has much more on that front, as does a good horse-drawn barge trip down the Tiverton Canal (15 minutes) or a detour to the entertainment facilities in Exeter city centre (25 minutes). A natural playground can be found at Sidmouth beach (half an hour). There’s kayaking or canoeing rental here but for cycling and walking (off the coastal path, that is), Exmoor National Park (35 minutes) is a sound choice. Historical sites also live on around here and that includes the National Trust’s Killerton (15 minutes), a huge 18th-century estate, and the Victorian Knightshayes Court (20 minutes), both royally good for walks and picnics.
