 Beautifully kept site, we only live a few miles away, but felt we could have been anywhere in the world.

I was blown away by how well kept the site is, the orangery was lovely in the evening for a few drinks and a game of cards.

The facilities were well looked after and all the staff we saw were pleasant,

The site was nowhere near full, and very few children around,

I’d highly recommend Ross park to anyone looking for a quiet and chilled break.

Not sure why the restaurant is permanently closed (I guess due to lack of requirement). They did offer on site fish and chips one night.

 Lovely site but couldn't help being disappointed based on glowing reviews, photos, and description on their website. Just didn't quite match the expectations set with the immaculate looking photos and descriptions in reviews and on their website. It wasn't immaculate, (probably due to late season and time of year) but still v good.

Having said that we had a great time and extended our stay, which the site accommodated at v short notice for a full week. Staff were v helpful and pleasant and we were escorted to our pitch.

The site is very pretty with hedgerows and flowerbeds. Due to the time of year these were starting to wither and the site did not feel as well kept as the photos. (Eg. The orchard was bare) this feels a little unkind to say, but just going on the reviews and images online.

The conservatory bar had plants that were brown and the floor covered in dead leaves and chairs covered with bird poo from one day-to-day the next.

Main reason for the site not matching the gloss of the website was the pitches being very close together and with no hedge separation as expected. Could see and hear neighbours tv so we kept mesh blinds down for privacy. Pitches were separated with a small low wood fence, no individual hedging as described. We were pitched in the previously known The Village. Think the individual pitches were allocated to seasonal guests which is understandable.

Lovely site, everyone was so friendly and at this time of year it was mostly populated with retired seasonal guests who were happy to stop and chat on dog walks and who had been visiting for years.

Great to have a bar on site. Shame it was so quiet and the bar manager said it has been a quiet season. Other guests used it for bar meals.

Good Toilet and showers of a clean enough basic standard. Liked having separate bathrooms with loo and shower together. Would benefit from a refurb. But OK standard.

Great location near Torquay. V handy for visiting Torbay area.

Would return if better pitch was guaranteed.

 Excellent location, nice and quiet large pitch.

Shower block very spacious and never had to queue up.

Disappointed that the bar / cafe no longer run by the site.

The cafe/ bar owner is a very nice and welcoming man but never got chance to try restaurant. Had a pint in there but limited choice and it shuts at 9pm I think.

 Ross Park is easy to get to just off the A381 at Ipplepen near Newton Abbot.

This is a superb caravan site with a choice of deluxe or premier fully serviced pitches which are individually separated by high hedges. The site is very attractive with trees and flowers.

There is a large leisure field that is more like a tree lined park with benches for relaxing, and for dog exercising who will like the dog shower near the entrance to the leisure field.

The shower block has individual private rooms which are immaculate with heated floors. There is a recommended restaurant which has an adjoining tropical conservatory by the shower block.

There's no shop, but a Spar is just down the lane on the main road. There's a laundry room, dishwashing areas, snooker room and outside games area with two table tennis tables with balls and bats provided.

The site is very handy for visiting Torbay and the many other South Devon coastal resorts. We will definitely use Ross Park next time we come to Devon.

The staff are very friendly and helpful, and the site is probably the best we've ever been to.

 Ross Park is a very well maintained & tidy site with excellent facilities and large pitches.

Easily accessible as it’s just off the main road.

We will definitely be staying here again in the future.

Reviewer: Leevia 1 review from this member

 Ross Park is a very quiet site so if you're looking for somewhere quiet this is a perfect place to stay

The only disappointing thing about this place is the cost of the food in their restaurant on site and there's no shop on site so you have to walk to the local garage which is about a 5-minute walk down the lane and around the corner

It's a shame there's not a shop on site, won't be returning because of this purpose

 Brilliant site complete with individual shower/ toilet rooms, entertainment in a spacious barn type building, restaurant and games rooms.

Very friendly staff and well maintained grounds.

A good bus service from a stop just out of the site on the main Newton Abbot to Totnes road.

 Lovely site, facilities immaculate, site immaculate, friendly staff.

Barn restaurant offers basic food, staff very friendly and the conservatory has some amazing plants.

On our last day we had to call out the RAC staff were helpful and we were not charged for the extra time we spent on site.

Close to Dartmoor and mmm any other places of interext

Fully recommend this site.

 We have recently returned from a week’s holiday at Ross Park Caravan Park, Ipplepen, Devon.

It is a lovely site, very friendly staff, beautifully kept and excellent facilities. We have visited this park twice a year for many years as it was one of our favourites.

Now they have new owners! What was once included in the daily rate now has to be paid for.

To put you ‘van on the site or remove it, £5 for either

Awnings are now charged at £3 pn

Dogs cost £2 each pn.

To chose a pitch when booking, £5

There was no WIFI although this was advertised to be included!

This has upset many regulars and I am sure they will not be returning. Some people who have had seasonal pitches have now removed their caravans as the price has greatly increased……

Such a pity…….

 Found the pitches small and close together, but they were well kept.

My teenagers quickly found out no wifi which we were not advised of as free wifi was advertised, so that was not a good start!

Toilets were very clean, as were the washing-up facilities and the staff were friendly.

Had the Friday fish and chips, a bit pricey but nice, however, the restaurant area lacked any atmosphere.

Reviewer: Spicyv 1 review from this member

 This is a very clean site, with spotless showers and toilets.

The conservatory area where you can sit and have a meal is very clean and well presented.

There is a small play area that has 2 ping pong tables, a large connect 4 game on the wall and a children’s skittle game.

There is also a games room.

The staff are very friendly and helpful.
