Great site and a great holiday
I have just returned from a 2 week family holiday at Hillhead. (my wife and two kids 10 and 8)
This site is great, it has stunning views of the rolling hills and also the sea as well as having some well laid out pitches.
Our pitch was in a private area with 3 other vans / motorhomes and we found it to offer a perfect mix of privacy as well as the opportunity to chat and socialise with our neighbors.
We found the facilities on the site to be good, and my kids loved the swimming pool on the days we stayed on the site, especially my 8 year who wanted to be in it regardless of whether the sun was shining or not.
There is also an kids playground area as well as a huge field for kids (or adults) to play ball games, fly kites or pretty much just run around.
There is also a good sized dog walking area that you can let you dog off the lead to have a good run around in.
We found the entertainment in the evening to be ok, one of the acts was a bit cheesy but that's was fine with us and the children's entertainer was great and my youngest loved it.
We only ate once in the bar but the food was as good as any pub we visited in the area.
In terms of facilities I found the shower and toilet area's to always be clean and bright with lots of natural light, however I agree with one of the other reviewers that there were times in the early morning that some of the toilet users clearly didnt have any thought for others that would be using the facilities after them.
One other thing I would mention is that this was one of the quietest sites I have stayed on, and despite it being very busy, there was times I wondered if anyone else was around. Especially in the morning (having stayed on sites in France and hearing children running around and shouting at 7am), there was times when I would be sitting outside at 9.30am having a cup of tea and there was not noise to be heard other than the birds and the occasional dog bark in the distance.
I think if we were to visit Devon again we would be more than happy to stay at Hillhead.
