What customers say

Spacious, flat pitches on a former golf course. Guests loved the clean, well-equipped showers and wash-up areas. Perfect for dog walks with river trails and a nearby pub. Relaxed policy and friendly staff are a plus. Most reviewers were very happy and plan to return, though some wanted more shower privacy.

Paul C. 8 reviews

Primitive grass tent or RV campsite

Liked The generouly sized pitches are laid out on a disused golf course in the most beautiful of surroundings. The river Teign is a short walk away accessed via a tunnel under the road. It's a perfect place for walking ones dog. The facilities are found in the ex club house building and are perfectly adequate. Arrival/departure times are very relaxed which was appreciated.

Disliked Nothing

Primitive grass tent or RV campsite

Liked Great find, 100 acres of peace with a laid back attitude.. Massive pitches on immaculate grass with avenues of trees for privacy. Toilets and showers were amongst the best we've experienced.
Wash up area is new with plenty of hot water and plugs which is a rarity these days. Manager is a very nice guy and went out of his way to ensure a warm welcome.
We will be back soon for a longer stay.

Disliked Having to leave.

Asked if we were ok

Disliked Dislike is harsh, facilities are not yet complete but still had everything we needed. Im sure very soon they will be done and as it was recently changed from a golf club they are doing very well.
