The campsite itself and the owners were top class, but it was a very wet, stormy and muddy holiday. Possibly put us off camping for life, as it was only our second camping holiday in 40 years, maybe we will get lucky if we try again. Thank you to the owners, they were very helpful, considerate and sympathetic to our stay. They were really lovely, and kept everything in the wash room and toilet/shower block spotlessly clean.
Lovely clean relaxing site

Things to do on site and in the Newton Abbot area
Chudleigh Knighton Heath is a heathland mosaic of gorse, heather and grassland. This was once the landscape which stretched for miles across what is known locally as the Bovey Basin. Spot the wildlife including the nightjar, stonechat, glow worm and the four spotted chaser.
Dartmoor National Park is just moments away from the park. Explore this incredible open landscape and spend the day admiring the waterfalls, heading through forests and wandering by ruins. Explore the picturesque villages, go rambling, cycling, letterboxing, horse riding or just picnicking and having fun beside the streams and rivers.
There is a short half mile walk through the nature reserve to Chudleigh Knighton. The historic town of Bovey Tracey is just over a mile away by car or bike, or a two mile walk away.
Bovey Tracey is one of the main gateway towns to Dartmoor, with a number of unique visitor attractions and a good mixture of shops. A pretty cob and Dartmoor-granite built town, situated on the River Bovey, it's home to the internationally renowned Devon Guild of Craftsmen, based in a 19th century watermill on the river.
Hennock is just above the site, towering 800 feet over the Teign Valley. This is a peaceful village with a proper Devon village pub, the Palk Arms, and stunning walks to the Trenchford, Tottiford and Kennick reservoirs.
One and a half miles away is 114 acres of woodland, heathland, grassland, lake and marsh that makes up Stover Country Park. Here, you'll see a wide variety of wildlife including birds, insects, dragonflies and damselflies as well as small mammals. Enjoy a picnic by Stover Lake and its marsh.
The coastal towns of Teignmouth and Torquay and the town of Totnes are all within easy reach to make your holiday different everyday.
