Brilliant Site

As a first time motorhomer, my review may not reflect as accurately as some more experienced reviewers, as we have nothing to compare it with.

First of all, knowing there was no electricity when we booked, we were prepared for the site to be a bit dated, but did not find this a problem at all. The showers and loos were immaculate and even though the site was full, there was never a wait. The area for washing dishes was great, two draining boards and lots of hot water. The actual pitch was plenty big enough to have privacy and also be able to spread out a bit.  We didn't use the waste or water facilities so can't comment.

The location is superb, 5 minutes walk from the lovely town of Totnes, 5 minutes walk from a good Morrisons and 2 minutes from a riverside walk. Most of the time it was very peaceful, except for some exceptionally noisy kids playing nearby, but that was usually just an hour or two in the early evening. After 10 it was completely quiet.

The wardens and staff were all really friendly and helpful and really nice to our dog, which always makes a big difference. If you're travelling with your dog, Totnes is a very dog-friendly town, with lots of cafes and restaurants who are welcoming with a nice cold bowl of water for the pooch.

There is a great trip called Round Robin, which is a riverboat trip to Dartmouth, followed by a train trip to Paignton, and a bus trip back to Totnes.  You need to allow all day for it. Its very relaxing and different.

 We will definitely be back for another stay.

Superb Riverside Location

One of the best located sites on the whole network with an easy walk into town. Well maintained by the hardest working wardens we have seen in a long time who are also friendly and approachable. Also good for transport connections to many other locations. We will be back next year only wish we lived closer and could visit more often.

Central location for visiting Totnes, Darmouth, Execter and so on and friendly wardens

An urban site. No dogwalk at the site but along the river ater 10 minute walk you reach a big grass area. A very short walk to reach pubs, a big supermarket, other shops, and Totnes castle. Nearby central station (no noise of that). And only a few steps from the boot to/from Dartmouth, a must see town. Ideal for those who do not want to use their own vehicle for exploring the region. We enjoyed the warmth of the wardens very much. Recommended.

Perfect place

While we were trying to find a site because of the promised record temperatures for May 2018 we came across Steamer Quay and because all the other sites we fancied were fully booked we went for it, what a result. Only 3 hard standings, none of which we were on, and only one toilet block, but what a fantastic site. Spotlessly clean, just across the road from the River Dart, bus terminal 5 minutes walk away and a short stroll into Totnes. If we lived closer we would be there a couple of times a month.

Last Minute Weekend Away

Weather was good so hit the road late Friday afternoon and ended up in Totnes, nothing booked but chanced our luck and what a result. A little paradise in Totnes is the way to describe Steamer Quays. Excellent owners, great location, spotless facilities can fault nothing! Many places to eat in town only a 5 min walk, Morrisons same distance, we were lucky with weather and was able to chill in this quiet spot in the town next to the river. Personally I don't think I would take the children here (Didn't see any children on site) so perfect for a child free weekend away. We will be back!!!

Great location

Really friendly welcome by the wardens who do a great job of making the site attractive and welcoming. The location is perfect with the town just a few hundred yards away. The toilet and shower block are out of the ark compared to other Club sites but they are very clean and functional. It would be great if the Club could get a longer lease on the site then it would be worth their while improving the facilities. No hook up not a problem even though we have a drop down electric bed.The solar panel on our motorhome roof did a great job. Would recommend this site to anyone and we will definitely be back.

A little gem

Great little site, practically in Totnes. The only real noise we encountered was early one morning when council workmen were strimming the verges on the road outside the site. Apparently they do it every few weeks, so we were just unlucky there. Otherwise, for such an urban site, it was very peaceful. No electric hook up, unfortunately, but a well charged leisure battery lasted us three nights (no TV in our van!). I understand they offer a charging facility for leisure batteries. Plenty to see and do in Totnes for a couple of days, so quite a relaxing stay on our way to Cornwall. The site wardens were very nice and very helpful. I would stay here again, without hesitation, if I was down this way.

Never fails to please

We have just come back from a 10 night stay at this lovely site. We have visited many times over the years and we always love it. No, it doesn't have electric hook ups and yes the toilets/showers could do with updating but everything about this site is lovely. Beautifully kept with pots of herbs dotted around for you to help yourself and within a few minutes walk of the town. We have never had an issue with rowdy youths but perhaps we're heavy sleepers. Would highly recommend this site
