Rachel, West Midlands
Date of stay: 24th July 2020
Really enjoyed our stay, the caravan was spotless and well equipped throughout.
Emma Carter, London
Date of stay: 18th July 2020
We had a fantastic stay in the caravan. It was way more comfortable than we thought and the quality was top-notch. The cleanliness was impeccable - you could tell they put real effort into it, especially with everything going on. David did a brilliant job preparing it for us and the staff made sure all safety protocols were clear and followed. Definitely recommend for a stress-free break!

Great stay, very comfy beds and nice vibes.
Martin, Worcestershire
Date of stay: 10th July 2020
We had a great time here! The staff really made us feel welcome and everything went smoothly. Definitely a place we’d visit again without hesitation. Highly recommended!
Emma, Reading
Date of stay: 9th August 2019
Honestly, this was one of the nicest breaks we've had in ages. The site itself was peaceful and spotless and even though there wasn’t much happening on-site, the surrounding area made up for it. We loved sitting outside, soaking in the sunset. Truly relaxing!
Emily, Alton Staffordshire
Date of stay: 2nd August 2019
Really enjoyed our stay, definitely planning to return soon!
Alex, Bedfordshire

Emma, Worcester
Date of stay: 18th May 2019
Overall, we had a lovely stay. The caravan was spotless and nicely arranged. The kitchen was really practical, especially with the big fridge and freezer. Bedrooms were a bit snug, but the beds were super comfy. Will definitely return!
Martin, Wales
Date of stay: 6th May 2019
It’s a decent place, but we found the oven lacked enough dishes for cooking comfortably. Also, more dining chairs would’ve been helpful. Still, a nice stay overall!
Emily, Walsall
Date of stay: 26th April 2019
We really enjoyed our stay here. The site is peaceful and calm, perfect for those who like a quieter vibe. It’s true there’s no clubhouse or pool, but that’s exactly why we picked it. Lots of residents live in their caravans year-round, which adds to the friendly, community feel. Definitely a spot we’d return to.
James, Swindon
Date of stay: 22nd October 2018
We really enjoyed our stay here. The staff were super friendly and helpful, making us feel welcome. It’s a cosy place, though I heard they’re planning to exp and with a clubhouse, which might change the vibe a bit. Still, can’t fault it!
Alex, Liverpool
Date of stay: 15th October 2018
Really happy with our new caravan, it’s modern and spotless too!

Really enjoyed our stay, the caravan was spotless and well-equipped, definitely returning!
Emma, London
We had a fantastic stay! The caravan was seriously lovely - super comfortable and way better than we’d hoped. It was spotless too, which was a relief given the current times. Big shoutout to the cleaning team and David for making everything shine. The staff on site were really helpful, explaining all the safety stuff clearly. All in all, we’d definitely recommend it - we felt really safe and well looked after.
Steve, Loughborough
Comfortable stay with great facilities and quick WiFi.

Alexandra, Alton Staffordshire
Great stay, loved the relaxed vibe and friendly staff too!
Laura, Reading
We honestly had a fantastic time. The location was perfect with plenty to explore nearby, even if the site itself was a bit quiet. Coming back to such a peaceful spot to relax and watch the sunset was just lovely. The site was spotless too!
Emma, Ipswich
Really enjoyed the stay overall.
Sam, Bedfordshire
Great spot, we’ve stayed twice already and definitely will come back!
Emily, Shaftesbury
Really enjoyed the van! It was comfy, spotless and just the right size for our group. The location was spot on too. Definitely booking again!
Emma, Derby
Great spot, comfy and clean, totally recommend!
Emma, Chessington
We stayed in this lovely caravan with our family of five and it had everything we needed. Just a heads up for the summer - it gets quite warm inside because it’s so well insulated, so bringing a portable fan or air con makes a big difference! Also, don’t forget some camping chairs for those relaxing evenings outside. Definitely recommend!
Emma Johnson, Carshalton
Great caravan, very well maintained
Lisa
We had a lovely stay. Everthing was very clean. Exept there were no towels and no soap.
Louisa
Such a beautiful park in a beautiful place such a shame we had a family emergency to go home to after 3 days
Valerie
The site was lovely and quiet. People very friendly
Sarah
A lovely place to stay. The caravan was very clean as always. Very quiet location with lots of space.
John
The caravan we had was perfect the best we have stayed in. It had en-suite in main bedroom and the caravan was completely spotless which is a credit to the staff on the site. The site itself was clean, tidy and quiet which was just right.
Jayne
Peaceful site, convenient for getting around and sightseeing in Devon. Excellent accomodation with friendly and helpful staff.
David
Park is well kept and tidy. The only drawbacks are that the very thin foam on the caravan seating is uncomfortable and that the location is on the very busy main road and the constant traffic noise makes for a noisy holiday which unfortunately spoils the peace and tranquility of the park.
Jamie
Basic site with no club or pool, but very clean and great location for sightseeing. Perfect if that’s what you’re after.
Sarah
Lovely quiet park, easy to get to and staff very helpful
