Liked: Location was excellent, with views over rolling fields. Easy to find with clear instructions. Toilet and shower block is basic but most importantly clean with plenty of hot water.

Primitive grass tent campsite (small)
Liked: lovely quiet, laid back site, in a rural, farmed valley spacious gently sloping field with pitch where you feel happy ethos. Clean large facility block with plenty of hot showers and hot water at the taps. Ideal for families (room to run and play area) hikers, cyclists etc. The perfect location for exploring South Devon, close to beaches and stunning coastline, English Riviera towns, steam railway and boat trips. Helpful Owners family farm so local knowledge, swimmer, walker, own guide to beaches. Good phone, data connectivity for those unable to suspend their disbelief that independent self reliance is possible. Just a nice place to unwind.
Disliked: It rained and my tent leaked, hardly their fault, but did help resolve problem, thanks again.

Primitive grass tent campsite (medium)
Liked: For a basic site it very good Great views in lovely countryside and peaceful Plenty of space The manager was friendly
Disliked: It is basic - there free showers, but not much room in cubicle so clothes, towels etc will get wet. Nothing else to add

Primitive grass tent campsite (large)
Liked: Reasonably quiet. Has friendly staff, free showers and anytime check-in and check-out
Disliked: Toilet facilities were very basic. Showers, although unlimited, has nowhere to keep your dry clothes etc away from the shower water apart from two door hooks, leading to spray etc hitting bags/clothes/towels/shoes. The lights in the toilet block seem to be on all night long whereas perhaps a motion-sensor controlled light would be better. This, we believe, may lead to flying insects coming in through the permanently open door and making cleaning more of an issue than it could be. Perhaps a revamp of the toilet block could be considered to reduce the number of toilet cubicles and to enable enlargement of the shower cubicles?

Custard the Horse Box microlodge
Liked: Fabulous place, very friendly host, excellent accomodation in the Horse Box, it includes everything you need.
