Amazing 10 day holiday in August

We arrived on 3rd August 2020 after having booked way before the Coronavirus outbreak. Entry was very welcoming (there is a very steep hill on the A380 to Torquay which took me by surprise), and on entry to the site the first thing I noticed was how tight some of the pitches were to manoeuvre. It was extremely busy, and there was a stunning view of the sea. We quickly realised that only a lucky few got these pitches which I thought was unfair as we all paid the same amount for the pitch. We eventually found a pitch which would have had a lovely view if it wasn’t for the uncut hedge blocking the view. I think this could have easily have been rectified or done prior to the site opening. There was a band system in place for the toilet block which worked well during our stay. There was only one instance when my wife’s band was taken by somebody when she left the block. The site has amazing views, and what would have been a great playground if it wasn’t for a group of swearing teenagers who but my two young boys off playing on it. A rule about supervision in the current situation I think would have been appropriate. The site is really well positioned for Kingswear where you can get the boat to Dartmouth. Brixham is also very close which is beautiful. There is a steam team from Paignton to Kingswear too which I would recommend. Beaches are in close reach, some are pebbly, and some sandy. Goodrington Sands was lovely, aswell as Torquay beaches. I don’t agree cars were fast, it’s an extremely safe site. Noise was an issue some nights either from screaming teenagers or from neighbouring pitches. After 10 it did seem to quieten down. WiFi was shocking. We pay for the year, but rarely got a signal. It is not worth paying by the day. The views and lack of them due to overgrown bushes was my main gripe. Some caravans clearly gloated in the views they enjoyed and I didn’t think this was fair. The bar area was ok, and the food was nice. The pool was closed so we didn’t experience all facilities open. We have booked again next year which is a testament to the site. I fully recommend it.
