Electric gravel touring pitch
Liked: Very well-presented site with attractive brick buildings and lots of flowers and greenery. Showers nice and hot, lots of room in the cubicles (probably the best ones I've come across) toilets and facilities spotlessly clean. I stayed on a gravel hard stand pitch and had stunning views across the farm and beyond. There are lots of food options available from onsite restaurant on certain days and when that is closed there are various food vans visiting the site for those who wish to use. I used the onsite minibus to Torquay one day, very handy and cheap as well. ( I think more people should use it). Great site would definitely go back.
Disliked: Nothing to dislike at all

From the manager: What a lovely review and we're so glad to hear you've enjoyed your stay with us and our facilities. The flowers this year are doing really well, looking good and are helping to support all the little bees and insects. Don't be away too long and happy travels in the meantime.

Liked: Warm reception to the campsite and given details of what’s on food and entertainment wise. The pitch was on a terrace and so the view was lovely and the facilities were a very short walk away. Always clean and tidy. Poppies restaurant is reasonably priced and served good food. We really enjoyed the evening entertainment, such a laugh. Prices in the well stocked bar were reasonable. Definitely a campsite to try out and for us to visit again.
Disliked: Nothing.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: Fantastic to read your kind words. We've all been having a great time meeting new guests and catching up with returning customers. I think it shows through in all the team that we're enjoying ourselves along with everyone else. We're happy knowing we've made you happy. Come again soon.

Liked: Friendly welcome on arrival and easy to pitch up. Great views. Clean and hot showers always a bonus! Bar and restaurant available to make the holiday more relaxing. All staff helpful and chatty.
Disliked: No dislikes just a heads up that the water taps near the standard pitches don't fit any hose adaptors. Fill up at the motorhome station just past the bar..

From the manager: Hello Jackie, Thanks for taking the time to write your review. Hands up, we made a slight slip up when booking you in and should have directed you straight to the Motorhome service point prior to siting. Apologies for that. However, glad to read that you've enjoyed your stay and hope to see you again later this season perhaps.
