What customers say
Immaculate, spacious pitches & modern facilities get top marks! Friendly staff create a peaceful vibe. Secure dog area & great Dartmoor access. Some road noise, but highly recommended for a well-kept site.
Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews
fantastic value.
Electric optional grass pitch
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.

Electric optional hardstanding and grass touring pitch
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.

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.

Electric optional grass pitch
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,
