What customers say

This adults-only campsite gets rave reviews for its spotless cleanliness, roomy pitches, and great, modern facilities. Staff are always friendly & helpful, creating a peaceful vibe. Dog area and location for Dartmoor exploring are big pluses. Minor road noise is the only slight drawback. Highly recommended!

Malcolm T.

Power optional grass campsite

Liked Well kept touring park with excellent pitches. Adult only campsite made it ideal for those wanting a relaxing break. Dog friendly campsite is another bonus for dog lovers. The shop had virtually everything needed foodwise etc and the games room yet another bonus with free pool table. Spotlessly clean toilet block with hot shower.

Disliked nothing to dislike

Andrea G.

Power optional cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked I liked the cleanliness of site and the pitches. Also dog pen.

Disliked I disliked the fact that there were no walks from site without going on the road as it was very busy and quite dangerous as a pedestrian. I was lucky to go to the site off season as I think 3 toilets and 3 showers would not be enough if the site was full.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your review. However we do feel that 6/10 is harsh considering that your dislike was the walks from the site (not the actual site, just the walks.) were along roads/lanes. We send you all of the information about the campsite and the local area including walks to you before you arrive. With regards to the toilets and showers, we actually have more than is required. We are sorry that we disappointed you however we are pleased to see that we can't have been that bad as you would recommend us to friends.

Power optional grass campsite

Liked Lovely clean, small site. Small shop for those last minute forgotten items. Great having a small dog park. Lovely surrounding country side.

Disliked Not a dislike , just a personal preference, a little too remote for us, there is a bus route just outside the site but really every where is a drive away . Again it's not in anyway a negative comment on the site just our own want.

Power optional grass campsite

Liked Stayed here end of August. This is, without doubt, just about the cleanest sites we have ever stayed at.
Incredibly well organised, quiet and with fantastic access to local attractions and amenities.
People obviously return again and again and for all the right reasons.
The thought that has gone into planning and running this site is amazing! Kept spotting clever features all the time.
We WILL be back!

Chris and Wendy Barnett, Hawkhurst,

Local attractions

Devoting a few days to rambling explores of Dartmoor National Park is a must hereabouts, with plenty of stunningly scenic spots to include in itineraries. Start with the nearby Teign Valley and the can’t-miss Lydford Gorge (the deepest gorge in south-west England) – don’t forget a camera to snap some shots of the spectacular White Lady waterfall and the Devil’s Cauldron whirlpool. There are more ways to explore Dartmoor National Park than on foot or by bike too: adrenaline junkies can try out whitewater kayaking or canoeing along the River Dart, or head into Okehampton to sign up for scrambling through gorges. History buffs are well served around these parts too: jaunts into Exeter come with possible pitstops at the city’s famed cathedral, medieval guildhall and Tudor-built House that Moved (that one deserves a quick internet search), while rural travels lead to stately manors including Powderham Castle, Castle Drogo, Killerton House, and Buckland and Buckfast abbeys, all within an hour's drive. Poke around England’s last working water-powered forge at Finch Foundry and visit the Museum of Dartmoor Life near Okehampton, or step back into the present day with some kid-friendly fun at Crealy Adventure Park or Diggerland Devon, both around half an hour from the site.
