Some good advice Leigh. Here is site map of Trewethett Farm, showing how some areas are loops, others dead ends where it would be best to walk the site and pitches rather than venturing down with a big caravan in tow. https://www.caravanclub.co.uk/globalassets/pdfs/sites/p-t/trewethett-farm/camc-trewethett-farm-site-map-2019.pdf
From the above, you can work out best pitches to catch the sun at various times of day, and you could ring and talk to staff about a pitch you might fancy. I don’t know the site, although have driven past and know the area quite well.
Just in case you would like an option, Venndown Farm is a lovely CL close by and great value for money. It has showers, loos and a swimming pool and spa pool. (Honesty Box for Pool, you pay and can dip in and out during day) On a quiet road, except at 12 noon when the race to get a pitch at Trewethett takes place😂. Easy to get to lots of great places.😁

You are welcome. All Club Sites have a Site map available. So do some AS (Associated Sites) such as Racecourse Sites. Useful to get an insight as to how the sites are laid out, where facilities are situated, and which way the sunshine’s on a particular pitch. You cannot book a specific pitch (yet😉) but at least you get a bit of an idea which pitch might suit your needs. Don’t hesitate to phone site direct to find out more.😁
Edit: if you decide to break up your travel down, can recommend Exeter Racecourse for an overnight stop. easy on and off onto main routes.

Best strategy at Trewethett is to go for a ‘economy pitch’ without EHU - who needs electricity anyway? That way, you’ve got a good chance of getting one of the best pitches at the top of the field with uninterrupted sea views and direct access to the coast path. Not sure how practical that is for a caravanner though? Long walk to the showers.
