Liked: Warm reception to the campsite and given details of what’s on food and entertainment wise. The pitch was on a terrace and so the view was lovely and the facilities were a very short walk away. Always clean and tidy. Poppies restaurant is reasonably priced and served good food. We really enjoyed the evening entertainment, such a laugh. Prices in the well stocked bar were reasonable. Definitely a campsite to try out and for us to visit again.
Disliked: Nothing.

From the manager: Fantastic to read your kind words. We've all been having a great time meeting new guests and catching up with returning customers. I think it shows through in all the team that we're enjoying ourselves along with everyone else. We're happy knowing we've made you happy. Come again soon.

From the manager: Karen, Our main cleaner is a lovely lady that keeps everything spotlessly clean throughout the day. She's much appreciated by all of us. I will make sure she knows you're acknowledging her hard work. Come again soon.

Liked: Friendly welcome on arrival and easy to pitch up. Great views. Clean and hot showers always a bonus! Bar and restaurant available to make the holiday more relaxing. All staff helpful and chatty.
Disliked: No dislikes just a heads up that the water taps near the standard pitches don't fit any hose adaptors. Fill up at the motorhome station just past the bar..

From the manager: Hello Jackie, Thanks for taking the time to write your review. Hands up, we made a slight slip up when booking you in and should have directed you straight to the Motorhome service point prior to siting. Apologies for that. However, glad to read that you've enjoyed your stay and hope to see you again later this season perhaps.
Excellent site pitches are level staff friendly and helpfull

Liked: The food in Poppies was really nice, the shower blokes & site was lovely & clean
Disliked: The club/bar wasn't open so no entertainment at night, Mini bus wasn't running, long walk to nearest bus stop, pub or shop, buses only run every hour in the week& next to none on Sunday, you could only walk in the direction of the bus stop as there is no foot path the other way & is on a busy dual carridgeway

From the manager: It was disappointing for us to read that you hadn't found your stay here quite as you expected. However, in the description provided on the pitch up site clearly states "During low season (March to mid-May, and October, with the exception of Easter and bank holidays), the bar, restaurant and shop will only open when the customer demand is sufficient." Our own website says the same. Although in low season we had live entertainment in the bar over the May Day bank holiday weekend and our minibus had it's first outing of the season on Saturday 4th May running guests down to Brixham for the Pirate Festival. We are very open with everyone about our location and access around the area. If you are ever in the area again during a busier period we would welcome the opportunity to show you what a wonderful time you could have here.
So clean, amazing staff, lovely large pitches and beautiful food
