Lovely, well-maintained site

We had a wonderful 3 days at Carnbrae! The site itself is well-maintained with lovely, large hardstanding pitches - each with own EHU and water tap. Andy, the host came round every day to say hi and check that we were ok. He gave us lots of local knowledge and advice on where to go and best ways to get there to avoid traffic, queues etc. There is so much to do in the area. There's a lovely, easy drive and park and then 1.5 mile walk into Lyme Regis. Honiton has a very interesting, long High Street with a large selection of independent shops. There's a choice of golf courses in the area, an abundance of beautiful walks both inland and coastal and lots more. I would highly recommend this CL site and would love to visit again. Thank you Andy. :)

2st outing!

Wonderful long weekend here. Andy was very welcoming and full of local knowledge. The sun shone but it was so peaceful and tranquil it would have been lovely in the rain. Water and hookup for each pitch, which were very generous in size. Lovely walks straight from the site. Very clear directions and easy to follow.

Our new secret hideaway!

We have just returned from our first visit to this little spot in paradise. This site has to be the best we have ever visited. The location is superb, with beautiful views over the surrounding countryside, and easy access from the road. The fully serviced pitches are huge with brilliant gravel which does not tread into your caravan, and you are able to position your unit to suit your needs.The only sound we could hear was birdsong. There are so many places to visit nearby and walks directly from the site. Andy is the perfect host, very friendly, welcoming and helpful. We will certainly be back and recommend this site to our friends. Thank you so much Andy - our visit was blissful.

Just love this site

We can’t recommend this site more highly. Now that Andy has created hard standing pitches we can come more often. Our very favourite local CL, only an hour away from home but like another world, so quiet and relaxing. So thrilled that we can still position the van any way we like on the huge pitches. Andy is one of the friendliest CL hosts we have experienced. The location is perfect, close enough to everything Lyme Regis and Axemouth have to offer but well away from road noise or other irritations. Thank you Andy.

Perfect for sea and countryside

Just lovely! Extremely welcoming and helpful. Andy went out of his way in every way. The site is well positioned for everything in the east of Devon and west of Dorset, particularly Lyme Regis. The hard standings and dedicated water and electricity was very convenient and easy to use. The dogs are allowed but (good) rules on control and clean up. Not near any main roads so safe as well as quite. We will be back as living in mid Dorset it’s an hours drive for us. Thanks Andy.

Great Host

Lovely site. Very large pitch sites only 5 on site. Andy the owner came and greeted us and has a wealth of local information on where to go what to see and best way to get there. Also had a map of an easy local walk into Lyme Regis. Each pitch has its own fresh water supply. Electric is on a meter and there was an honesty pot to put your meter reading in with the cash. We averaged around £3 a day of usage making £25 a night in total. Andy does request if you use an awning (no extra charge) that you do not use the carpet to protect the grass. More than happy to recommend

Absolute delight

Thank you Andy for such a lovely stay. Your site is fabulous - one of the quietest we have ever stayed on and very accessible from your recommended route. Probably wouldn't be so easy for anyone not following this as there are lots of very narrow country lanes in the area. The maintenance of the site is brilliant - grass neatly cut, tidy refuse area with lots of recycling facilities. A perfect location for trips into Lyme and also to Seaton and Axemouth. Love the fact that your pitches offer complete freedom of positioning - we really like to be able to put our van in any direction we fancy so that we get the maximum privacy - maybe something to bear in mind when you go over to hardstanding pitches. Fantastic to have water as well as EHU on the individual pitches, and completely support your approach for charging electric through a meter - much more sensible and fairer for those guests who use very little power. You are a great host - lots of helpful chat and friendly approach - we felt that you really care for your guests. We'll be back before long. Thank you again.

Absolutely first class CL. Must be one of the best.

We opted to break our journey up from Cornwall as we had two days to spare en route to Portsmouth. What a find. A really spacious CL, easy to find and in such a peaceful position . We woke in the morning to absolutely nothing- perfect! Just a couple of deer in the field opposite. Each pitch with masses of room and with its own water electric and grey waste. That doesn't happen very often. So lovely to plug in the water and forget it! Andrew the owner very welcoming and knowledgeable about the area. He lives locally and on hand should you need anything. Perfect for Lyme Regis, Charmouth, Amminster and Jurassic coast. An abundance of walks and cycle rides from the CL. Can't recommend this CL enough if you need to be in this area. A real credit to Andrew who in my view has the CL exactly right. Adrian Noye

excellent site

we spent a week here at the beginning of june and were delighted with the site. Plenty of space and with services on each pitch it is ideal for a motorhome where if water wasn't available you might have to go off pitch to refill. There was a lovely woodland just next to the site ideal for dog walking, and easy access to pretty lanes for cycling. Lyme Regis is not far away but it is all downhill so rather a tough cycle back. The lanes you need to take to get to the cl are pretty narrow but we hardly met another vehicle and this is only to be expected if you want peace and quiet. The field is fairly flat and we were amazed by the number of birds coming to find food-each evening there were at least 4-5 blackbirds, a couple of pied wagtails and most amazingly 3 mistle thrushes, one of which even came and perched on our chairs. We were parked at the far end of the field nearest the house and did find when there was rain it did tend to run down to our end of the site. Having said that, it drained quickly and even with a heavy van it didn't cause any problems. Andy, the owner, was really helpful and knowledgeable about the area and was always on hand to check if there was anything we needed. As we have friends in the area and usually visit once a year we will definitely be back
