We visited the site in September 2019. The central location of the site is excellent, just a short walk into the lovely town of Totnes, with access to excellent shops, restaurants, pubs etc. The staff are extremely wlecoming and friendly. The facilities are clean and well maintained but very dated. I would look forward to the block being modernised and the lack of a proper grey water drain for motorhomes is disappointing. The capacity is limited so it is important to book in advance. Overall,a great site.
This is our favourite site. Admittedly it hasn't got electricity but it has everything else. It's very well appointed with really loads to do. Plenty of eating houses and a big supermarket. There's a very good Cheese shop on the little lane opposite the Seven Stars pub. This site has everything we want and it's right in town. Love it.
Stayed start of August - great location next to River Dart and just a 5 min walk from the town centre - given urban location its quiet - quieter than many rural locations next to roads. No electric and generally grass pitches, but toilets and showers plus usual facilities - doesn't suit everyone but never a problem for us. Great walks both ways along the Dart. Site staff were fantastic and really helpful.
fantastic stay 2 nights at steamer quay very clean and tidy and quiet plenty of eating and drinking places for all age groups great local shops and market local transport 2 mins walk away toilets /showers very dated but spotlessly clean
We stayed here on 8th June for two nights, and received a nice welcome. The location is incredibly convenient for Totnes and the castle and the quayside is a stone's throw away, with boat trips to Dartmouth. The River Dart and Dartmouth is a must-see. We did the 'Round Robin', ticket purchased at the quayside kiosk. All facilities at the campsite were clean and it was peaceful, although no EHU available at this site.
First time for us at this site and we loved it, the wardens work hard and are so friendly, the site its self is a right sun trap as it was hot all week, we loved the town with everything you could ask for and just over the bridge just a short walk, the wardens keep members informed what going on in the area chalked up on the black board near the reception, talking to a few lovely people and they said that some people have bee coming for over 30 years, we found the toilets to be very clean and couldn't fault them, nice showers etc, the site has no hook ups but didn't find it a problem as our small solar panel kept the battery topped up, there is so much to do and see in this area a week is not long enough..local buses take you everywhere and can be boarded in town ....we had a fab week and will be sure to return......
We brought kayaks with us and location is brilliant, literally across the road and the steps are conveniently situated on the river, did the Round Robin (train, bus and boat) well worth it, bit pricey but good day out. Campsite facilities pretty good, pitch 27 & 28 probably the smallest on site but ok for small van - will definitely be going back, owners very friendly.
Our third visit this year to Steamer Quay the staff as always are friendly & welcoming. It’s a great location with lots to do in the area. We will be back soon.
Whilst this site is not all singing, all dancing like some other sites, it has everything to make for a great stay. The location is superb, so close to the town centre and all it's amenities. There are excellent bus services to take you to other local towns such as Torquay and Dartmouth and for motorhome owners this is great. The facilities are basic but very clean and functional and the site is kept very well. No problem with not having a hook-up if you have a decent solar panel. We will be back again later in the year.
Despite receiving a warm welcome whenever I've stayed on this site countless times over the past few years, I had the unfortunate experience of being turned away by a "jobsworth" type (stand in) warden. He rudely "welcomed" me by demanding to know the length of my motorhome. I told him it's an i800qd and so assumed it was 8m. He wouldn't accept this and insisted on checking "the computer", which told him an i800qd (current model presumably) was in fact 8.2m long. This news seemed to bring great satisfaction and he told me I couldn't stay as there is an 8m limit on the site and that it had been raining and I would "churn up the grass". I explained it has never been an issue before and that I always park on boards if on grass but to no avail. Beware
