Might possibly be spending a week at Crofton near Dawlish and there is some on-site fishing!! Has anyone fished there? - if so whats it like? Also is there any other sites down that way with any on-site fishing?

Not a fisherman myself, but Peppermint Park has some on site fishing, you're also not too far away from the Exeter canal which may be a further option. It certainly has a good towpath if you choose to cycle to Exeter.

Don't know whether it would be classed as S Devon, but there is a place near Holsworthy, called Chilla; there is a holiday place there and I think they take caravans and tents, but not sure.
They have about 5 lakes.

We've been to Cofton several pools reasonable fishing. Better out of school holidays if you are serious about the fishing.

An update on what I said earlier.

Just looked at their website (www.kingslake.co.uk)

They say they can accomodate a small number of caravans and are CC registered.

I haven't been for 10 years and it seems they have added some wooden lodges by the lakes through the woods.

This is a lovley place. Huge field, lovely cottages, big wood, and about 5 lakes, excusive for those on holiday.

Think the owners have changed since I was there but I would recommend for peace and quite, and a nice central location.
