Castle Brake Holiday Park

Me gustó: Lovely quiet site. Very helpful friendly staff. We stayed on a fully serviced pitch that was level and good size. The facilities were warm (under floor heating) and clean. The showers were the best design I’ve seen on a campsite! Beautiful walks from the site.

No me gustó: Unfortunately, it was obvious in the women’s facilities that it was the end of the busy season (September) Several of the shower cubicles had broken locks and due to a problem with the drains they had an appalling smell. I reported this to reception and was told that the locks would be seen to and the drainage problem would be addressed over the winter. Hopefully it will be sorted before we no doubt return next year!

Me gustó: site is very clean and staff helpfull, pitches are level shower and toilets are a bit of a walk if your up near the entrance (which we were) also club bar/restaurant is small and for the size of the site with well over 100 statics i would not like to be here in the height of the season, nice walk to the local village woodbury, we would return but out of season dates

No me gustó: small bar/restaurant area but then it does have one

Me gustó: We had a good week here. The site was nice, quiet and clean sitea mixture of touring and statics. Very friendly and welcoming staff. Food and drinks lovely in the site bar we enjoyed the quiz night even though we came last! Very well placed for getting out and visiting places around south Devon.

No me gustó: Our only gripe was with the toilet/shower block which wasn't that clean and had the most awful smell of dirty drains/ sewage which was most unpleasant. I did report this to reception but they didn't seem too interested and there didn't appear to be any improvement. Hence we mostly used our own facilities and the toilet by the bar which was clean. We discovered a large skip full of rubbish behind the toilet block which might account for some of the smell. In our opinion this was the only thing that let the site down.

Me gustó: Underfloor heating in showers Lovely helpful staff Great games field Brilliant location Quiet site Can use facilities at sister site, Ladram Bay Great children’s play area Well stocked shop Pub on site

No me gustó: Strong sewage smell everywhere Dirty toilets and showers and washing up area. Everywhere needed a good sweep up Camping field too small, tents too close together Games room was a joke - pool table with no white ball and cues with no tips, one kiddy ride, 3 out of 5 grabber machines out of order and it was filthy Coffee machine out of order

Del administrador: Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback following your stay at Castle Brake. We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the underfloor heating in the showers, found our team helpful, and appreciated the peaceful location and family-friendly facilities. It’s great to know that your children enjoyed the games field and play area, and we’re glad the well-stocked shop and on-site pub added to your experience. We’re truly sorry to hear about the concerns you raised, particularly regarding the sewage smell and the cleanliness of the facilities. This is certainly not the standard we strive for, and we will address these issues with our team to ensure improvements are made. Your comments about the games room, camping field size, and out-of-order coffee machine have also been noted, and we’ll be working hard to rectify these matters. We hope you choose to come back and visit us again soon. Kind Regards The Castle Brake Team

Me gustó: Staff were soo friendly and welcoming. Site was exceptionally clean and tidy, very well maintained BBQ pig pizza was the absolute best ever Super quiet location Shower toilet block was a good set up nice and spacious

No me gustó: Only downside was shower floors were sometimes a bit grubby but only from other users not squeejing after they used them

Me gustó: Like other reviews have mentioned, there is a sister site called Ladram Bay that the car pass lets you visit. Here there is soft play, a large adventure playground, an outdoor splash park, indoor swimming pool, mini golf and a private beach. You have to pay for the swimming as a camper, which is fair enough but worth knowing. The facilities at the sister site are great and look quite new. It's much larger and busier. The private beach has great rock pools at low tide. We ate at both the restaurant at Castle Brake and at the sister site. Both meals were great. The meal at Ladram Bay we were sat right on the balcony with a sea view that was amazing. Toilets on site were clean. Booking through here we had 'classic camping' which meant we didn't have a specific pitch number and could go anywhere in a large field. The field wasn't busy and everyone was quite spaced out. Play park at castle brake was good, although more tired that at Ladram.

No me gustó: Not a dislike per say, but with the swimming at Ladram you need to be ready to dive straight in and go right on the 15 mins slots. Our hour session ended when we'd only been in the pool 45 mins. Every 15 mins they dish out different coloured bands. Water ran out while we were staying, but only on some taps, which was confusing. The restaurant did cope though and gave us a meal.
