We booked here as we were going to visit family, but on our way here they phoned to say they had been on contact with a Covid positive person, but we still headed down and glad we did
Site is wonderful and out of the way, the lanes down to it are a wee bit snug and not all drivers pay attention to the larger vehicles. The site is very clean, quiet location and so as long as you are good with using own facilities then you won't beat this site in the area. We rarely come to the west country as it's easier for us in Cambridgeshire to head to Dover or North to the Midlands and beyond and it always rains down there when we go.....this time in Plymouth we were blessed with sunshine.
Shops are 3 miles away but not a big deal, we stocked up the fridge on the way down from Cheddar site
Peaceful Stay!!
Its was good to return to this peaceful site with excellent views across Plymouth Sound after months it felt like we had never left. Its a clean and well kept site with dog walk, shop and local pub outside site. Thank you for good service.
Lovely peaceful site
This is a lovely peaceful site with a fantastic view. The wardens where helpful and friendly. The site was clean and tidy. There is a little local shop and a Public House not far away. You will need ramps for some of the pitches. We met some lovely people here. Great site, I would recommend it.

Great spot
Our third or fourth visit, this site always pleases. The view across the Sound is brilliant as are the great sunsets. The two nearest pubs are good and the Coast Path walks well worth doing. As motorhome users who like to live their vehicle on site the once a day bus to Plymouth is useful with a more frequent service from Staddiscombe 1-2 miles away.
As is usual for CAMC sites, the staff are helpful and friendly - we really don't understand the comment of the previous reviewer.

Lovely site - pity about the staff
First club site I've been to where the staff generally didn't seem to care and gave the impression they would be a lot happier without guests. The site itself was lovely, clean and tidy. The pitch was in great condition and the views were wonderful
Worth knowing about
We are glad we found this site. Lovely quiet location with views over Plymouth Sound. It is a no facilities site which we like & wish the Caravan & Motorhome Club had more of as we prefer to use our own on board facilities. The site was full suggesting that we are not alone in that view. The warden was great, very pleasant & well organised & coping with the challenges bought about by a period of heavy rain.
Loved it
Just spent 13 nights here.
Firstly, the roads are narrow on the final mile or so but no big issue.
Once you get here its totally worth it for the stunning views and peace and quiet.
No toilet block as stated and one of the reasons we booked as its all onboard the caravan anyway.if its an issue,go elsewhere.
Bit of a slope toward the bottom of site and if you are confident of being able to get level and then get off the pitch if its wet then worth it for the views.
Lots of walks and things to do locally.
My one and only gripe,and potentially a serious one, was somebody accessing their pitch on the row in front by driving over our pitch just as we were setting up, literally coming within 2 foot of our caravan door.
I think it should be mentioned at check in to access pitches from the end of rows rather than driving between units to access row in front.
Very warm welcome!
A little gem of a site that really suits those that enjoy just being out in the countryside.
No hard standings, and a very steep slope for half of the site is a consideration to bear in mind - particularly for large motorhomes, plus the approach roads do have narrow sections, but once there you can relax and just enjoy the peace of the setting. This year all sites are exceptionally busy, and that is the case here too. Wardens Kevin and Anita couldn’t have been more helpful, supportive and accommodating despite the pressures. Always smiling and offering help and advice about the local area, and with time for a chat.
Enjoyed our stay very much.
Great little site within walking distance of a lovely beach.
Stayed at the end of May. we chose this because of it's location and also because it had no toilets or showers.
The dog walk was great and gave chance of shade and a run for dog.
Wardens were very friendly and helpful. They were very knowledgeable about suitable walks.
Pub and shop within easy walking distance.
Hope to return again.

A nice stay
It is a peaceful pleasant site unusually without a toilet shower block. This was not an issue for just the two of us and with the Covid still around we felt much safer using just our own facilities and we benefited from the reduction in the cost of not having a toilet shower block.
Many of the pitches are on a slope which we coped with OK in our Motorhome but the way the pitches are laid out is fine if you have a caravan, then it is easy to level but not for a motorhome.
The site is at the top of hill which gives some lovely views but if you are walking or cycling remember you have to come back to the top (we had electric bikes so not a major problem)
The access road is narrow single track in places with passing places which was an issue as it was so busy and this was June it could be a big issue in the height of season. But this applies to many sites on the coast.
Would we use it again - yes
We chose it as it was near to my Son and family who live in Plymouth and this allowed us to visit them. It would have been nice if visitors were allowed on site as they could then have visited us.
