Stunning views

We have been here before and its a dramatic place to view the sound. Unlike others who have reviewed the site we found the male warden to be a little petty , he seemed alright as long as you took his advice but if you contradicted him , then he clearly didnt like it.shame because its a good site, no facilities so the wardens dont have much to do

Perfect little hideaway!

Wonderful site, beautiful views over Plymouth Sound and very helpful wardens. Very convenient for visiting our daughter at Plymouth Uni, so we've been twice this season. Lots of healthy walking around the coast or woodland with plenty to see. Having no wifi did not appear to be too much of problem this time because we were out and about so much. TV reception very good for when you do need it. We will definitely be back when the site reopens in 2017.

Brilliant wardens and stunning views.

We arrived at the site and were welcomed by the most helpful wardens. Nothing was too much trouble and we were given a lesson on parking and stabilising a caravan on a slope. The site was kept very clean and well organised. A great place to stay if visiting Plymouth and the picturesque part of Devon. With Many Thanks Kath and David.

Great quiet break.

Just returned from 10 days at this site. We love it here for its views, particularly the activity in the sound. We arrived late in the day in the pouring rain and just pitched. Next morning we asked if we could move pitches, the wardens said we could help ourselves, asked if we needed any help then cut the grass on the pitch we were moving to. What more could you ask for? Lovely site and great wardens.

Thank you.

Chilling Out

This was a very easy site to find but do follow the instructions. The site was very clean and peaceful with a separate field for playing in and a practical dog walk. The views were stunning and there are some lovely walks close by. Being a retired sailor it was lovely to watch the shipping and yachts. The site is south westerly facing lovely and sunny with great sunsets. Be wary of SW GALES the sight is quite exposed on high winds. We were not that impressed with the two local pubs but there again that's not why we go caravaning. Big thumbs up for the wardens- cheerful, helpful and knowlegeable ?? We will definitely come again

Exceptional, friendly and made us feel welcome thank you the wardens

We have just stayed here for 3 nights and all I can say is what a fantastic beautiful and clean site this is. From the moment we pulled in to the site we were made extremely welcome by the wardens (lovely couple). They were both friendly and had exceptional customer service. I even saw the wardens walking round the site with members as they looked for a pitch giving them advice about the site and the best places to pitch up. We originally booked for 2 nights but extended to 3 nights as we liked the site so much and nothing is too much trouble for the wardens. The dog walk here is excellent and very big. Thank you to You both for a lovely stay and we will defiantly be back as soon as we can.

Perfect for dog owners

Lovely site in a beautiful spot. Best dog walk in a large field and just a short way down a lane you are directly onto the coastal path. Nice dog friendly pub serving great food just a few minutes walk. Very friendly with the best views over the bay, I shall definitely return.

Lovely clean relaxing site

Just returned from 7 day stay at this site - so clean and wardens work so hard to keep it immaculate. Lovely views over Plymouth sound, relaxing watching the passing boats, ships and occasional submarine. Loved it definitely will be back thanks for super holiday.

A site with a view!!!

We visit this part of the West Country most summers at some time and decided to give the Plymouth Sound site a try even though we normally like to have a shower block where we are staying as we knew the location is special even though the approach road is tricky for the last couple of miles. Our visit coincided with the Plymouth Firework competition which we watched from the site and were able to see the aerial fireworks over the Staddon Heights hill. Yes, the approach is tricky for a few hundred yards, but the location when you get there is well worth it for the stunning views from the site. The wardens are so hard working and show you the available pitches when you arrive so you can maximise the view from what is available. The dog walk is good and the field alongside it for children to play looked nice. Bovisand Beach at the bottom of the lane is dog friendly and there is a cafe in the chalet park that you can get a drink from before the slightly steep walk back to the site. The National Trust run Saltram House is a short drive from the site and has lovely walks alongside the Plym estuary. We didn't eat there, but did stop for a drink at the local Mussel Inn, it looked nice but found the drinks expensive so could be hard on the pocket to visit? There are so many things to do in the area so recommend you try this site with lovely views over Plymouth Sound.

A relaxing couple of weeks

Just back from two weeks at this site. Yes there are no facilities but the location and views amply make up for it. The pitches are immaculately maintained and the owners are very helpful when booking in and choosing a pitch. When I visited the site was split equally between caravans and motor homes. The latter tending to be positioned at the top of the site where the slope wasn't so steep. It's important you follow the directions provided for the final approach to the site as there are a few tight bits in the narrow lanes. But nothing to lose sleep over. Most of the locals were very accommodating for caravan drivers. It did get a bit windy some days, so my visiting nieces had great fun flying kites in the playing field next door. All in all a great site if you want a peaceful and relaxing holiday with plenty of beaches and things to do in the area. I'd visit again!
