What customers say
Clean and tranquil adults-only site. Staff are super friendly, pitches and facilities (showers, loos) spotless. Great base for Dartmoor. Dogs welcome with secure run. Occasional road noise, but not a biggie. Lots want to come back!

If you don't want quiet and spacious then this is a nice place.
Electric optional grass pitch
Liked Small, clean, friendly place.
Disliked I asked for somewhere quiet and was put near the main entrance with noisy neighbours and a yappy dog. I was told it was too busy and nowhere was very quiet, but when I walked around later after reception was closed I saw many better spots that were free. Also quite close to a road and has regular traffic.

From the manager: Thank you for your review.
With regards to your booking. You booked the day before your arrival with a request of a quiet pitch. However on arrival (you arrived at 13:17) whilst we checked you in we discussed that the campsite is in a horse shoe style shape and that all of our Grass Pitches are in the middle with all the Hard Standing Pitches around the outside. So wherever you were pitched you would have people around you. You also stated to us that the reason for wanting to be somewhere quiet was because you stay up late and have a sliding door on your camper. You also stated that you had had complaints about this on other sites. You were placed 3 pitches away from the entrance with the pitch giving you a hedge and bushes to make it as quiet and private as possible. We also made sure that you didn't have people next to you. It is such a shame that if you were so unhappy with your pitch that after arriving at 13:17 you did not walk around the campsite till after 18:00. If you had spoken to us and had found a pitch which you would have preferred we could have accommodated this. But you did not give us this chance, you decided to leave a bad review instead. As for the road this give our campsite fantastic access, but this does mean that cars will pass by our site. Sadly the campsite/us can't control the road. We rate ourselves on being a very dog friendly site and sadly dogs bark. It sounds like you would be better doing more research and finding a campsite in the middle of nowhere with only a few pitches and that don't allow dogs. We are sorry that you did not enjoy your stay with us. Best wishes from Leigh and David.

An excellent site with good facilities and location
Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked Spotlessly clean and well spaced pitches. Easy access which is important for us as we have a twin axle 8ft wide caravan. Free wifi.
Disliked The showers were nice and hot with a separate dressing area but it was a bit small and water sprayed into the dressing area
