Great CL

A lovely site, good views and we were made very welcome by Karen and Martin even though they were busy with running the farm. Unfortunately we had to cut short our stay as the car broke down and none of the garages could look at it for at least a fortnight. The... Show more

Great place when visiting Plymouth

We just stayed at Furze Park Farm for three nights and it was perfect for our needs. Checking in was easy with good information from the site owner, and the site is very well set out. Being just off the A38, it is very easy to find, and very convenient. ... Show more

A little distant hum from A38 but not enough to disturb. 25mins walk to centre of Plympton. The... Show more

This is a lovely site, peace and tranquillity. This was our first time at a 5 van CL site and one which we will definitely return to. It's within easy reach of Plymouth and a great golf course, Staddon Heights! Karen was very welcoming and helpful on our arrival... Show more

So good to be back in the 'van again at what is arguably our favourite CL! When we arrived the site looked immaculate, the grass freshly mown and flower tubs dotted around. Two new good hardstandings have been added since our visit last year, but as usual we chose... Show more

Another lovely CL

Firstly and as is often.the case, the price is now £12 per night ( this is not a complaint) The entrance is very narrow for larger units, go on from the marked entrance only a few yards and turn in there, it's much wider -hence not 5stars -. It's very quiet... Show more
