Primitive grass tent campsite (medium)
Liked: Apart from access (roads to site being narrow) the campsite was lovely. Well maintained with decent facilities and good coffee machine. Free to use fire pits and honesty box for logs to burn. No anti-social behavior and fantastic view of the sunset through the valley. 10 minute drive to Torquay and would visit again.
Disliked: Access roads and supervision required for young children on park as near fast flowing stream of water which is accessible through openings in hedge

Liked: We loved near everything about the site, views are gorgeous, grounds are well kept, showers and toilets well kept and looked after. Even lockable charging boxes for your devices. So laid back and just easy going. Couldn't ask for more.
Disliked: Not a lot in the shop, but it will definitely sort you out in an emergency.

Primitive grass tent campsite (XL)
Liked: Beautiful views in a perfect location. The toilets and showers were clean, the washing up facilities were clean and the shop was well stocked of ice cream and snacks. They also do a good coffee! A bag of logs can be bought for £5 and there are log burners provided for free. Because the shop is only open in a morning, there's an honesty box for the logs...please be honest! There's a small park with a swing and a climbing frame with a slide. It would be better if the park area was bigger as it got crowded at times. There are stinging nettles but you're next to a working farm and on a field. We pitched up on the first field as it was flatter than the 2nd field and it was fine. We had family visit for a BBQ and the owners were fine with this. Our boys (9, 9, and 11) had lots of space to run around in and kick a ball about. We will definitely be back next year and have recommended it to friends.
Disliked: The showers are tiny (and aside from building a new shower block, it can't be helped). There are bags for life screwed into the back of the shower cubicle doors for your clothes and hooks for your towels. We found getting dried in the toilet cubicle opposite was the best option once your showered.

Liked: General vibe, easygoing and very friendly staff. Great amount of space. Nice toilet block. Good location for all coastal towns in the area
Disliked: Pitches not all level (expected of farmland), showers not always hot but always fixed/back each day.
