  • Dog-friendly Devon site near Loddiswell and Middle Avon Valley
  • A 20-minute drive from several beaches and half an hour from Totnes
  • Walks accessible from the site and cafés nearby
It’s beaches and walks galore from Cottage Farm Camping, just outside the South Devon National Landscape. On the edge of Loddiswell, this easily accessible site is 20 minutes’ drive away from a reel of beaches, including Bigbury on Sea, South Milton Sands, Hope Cove and Mothecombe. There are a fair few golf courses and National Trust properties in the local area. Plus, with Kingsbridge 10 minutes’ drive away and Plymouth 40 minutes’ drive away, town life isn’t too far either – a great situation for things like restaurants, cafés, shopping and the likes (not forgetting seafood in Salcombe, 20 minutes’ drive away). Those of you who are fans of walking will have a good run of Dartmoor National Park’s moors, 20 minutes’ drive away, or the splendid walks along the river Avon that are accessible on foot from the site and run through the National Landscape. There are a number of local cafés which have stunning views of the surrounding countryside too. The site itself has large and level-grounded pitches with plenty of space for groups or for dogs (on leads) to sit with you. The facilities at your disposal include compost toilets, an LPG gas shower available for an additional cost and a washing-up station.

Primitive grass RV campsite

Liked Absolute little gem of a campsite this. Owners were really friendly. Me and my girlfriend stayed there with our two dogs and it's perfect for a cosy little getaway with the family. Facilities are more than enough if you want to keep the camping feeling as well a shower and toilet provided with washing facilities and an overall pleasant stay and welcome.
