Excellent campsite, the cleanest I have stayed at, the owner gave us the options of pitches which is a first, the toilets and shower block is kept in immaculate condition, considering it is 17 years old it feels like it was built last year!
The on site shop was well stocked and the staff always pleasant, The only thing I can think of is that it could do with a play area for the children but there is one a short walk away behind lidl.
The town of Dartmouth is a very nice place to visit, sitting on the harbour wall crabbing just seemed to while away the time, the ferries over to Kingswear are very quick way across and give good options for places to visit, Paignton Zoo is a very good day out as well as the Plymouth Marine Aquarium.
One bit of disappointment was a visit to Blackpool Sands, the parking was expensive at £7 for the day, and the beach is shingle with two sand boxes, the beach was clean and there are no dogs allowed, but the shingle was off putting. Paignton beach was better
Nice site, bathroom facilities could not be faulted, greeted on arrival by friendly staff and escorted to pitch. This site is advertised as Family friendly, no areas for kids to play, no play park and constantly reminded by signs saying no ball games, how this is family friendly I don't know. It also seems that there are a fair few resident pitches who tend to disregard the normal rules of keeping the noise down after say 10. 30/11. 00pm.
If you want a site to get out and about to visit the local area then good location, if you want a site where you can let the kids of the leash then this is not really the site to visit. Be warned as well if you are visiting during normal times, park and ride at £5 for up to 6 people is good value and next to site, however during Dartmouth Regatta they upped the park and ride to £10.
Local Sainsburys, LIDL and petrol station so no need to stock up before arriving. Will not visit this site again but will definitely go back the area but look for a more Child friendly park.
We last visited and reviewed this campsite in 2010 following our first visit and said that we would not review it again this time as we had tried to book for 2011 but couldn't get in, and we really didn't want to share this treasure that we had found!
However, having visited another campsite in late August we soon realised that Little Cotton is by far one of the best sites we have visited in the years we have been camping.
The welcome received on our arrival was very professional but friendly and we were shown to a choice of pitches and even loaned an extension lead for our hook up as the electricity point was a little way from our tent.
The on site shop stocks most things that you need, seems to be always open, and even has a facility for freezing ice blocks, with a donation to charity.
The toilet facilities are immaculate no matter what time of day you visit, and it seems that whenever you visit there is someone in there cleaning. The only very small downside is that the showers are push button without any control of the temperature (like the majority of sites) but with a 6 year old who doesn't like hot water this can be a bit of an issue. However, they do have a large sink in the 'baby' room that you can give them a wash down in.
The tent field close to the dog walking field is great and, in general, our neighbours were friendly. Most people seemed to quieten down quite early so it was relatively easy for us to get out 6 year old to sleep, although we did need to ask one family with toddlers not to run around screaming outside out tent at 8. 30pm when we were trying to get our daughter to sleep.
We were very lucky that the week we visited was probably the hottest this summer, but we had a fabulous time visitng the local area, and still feel as though we have only touched the perimeters of this beautiful part of the country. Sitting outside the beach cafe at Salcombe with the mid morning sun beating down and the wonderful scenery, you really could have been in the tropics!
This is definitely a campsite and an area that we would love to visit again next year.
We have been going to this site foe a few years with our motor home, before that a caravan, We have always been welcomed by the staff, The toilets/showers are the best on any site we, ve stayed on. Very useful having Sainsburys and Lidls close by, And park and ride next to the site, But those with bus passes can use the local buses just a short walk to the housing estate then a bus to the Dartmouth key side. Pitches are a good size, but can be windy in the middle of the main field, best at the edge by the hedge. Good to have space for the car if you have a tent or caravan or tow a small car behind your motor home. Would recommend this site for first time campers, even if it gets windy.
Award-winning camping and glamping on the edge of Dartmoor National Park near Tavistock, Devon. 40 grass and hardstanding pitches for tents, touring caravans and motorhomes with optional electric hook-ups. Choose between the scenic Daffodil Field with moorland views or the sheltered old walled garden. For those preferring a bit more comfort, the park provides camping pods and mega pods.
Immaculate facilities with free hot showers, toilets, hairdryers, underfloor heating, laundry, dishwashing, games room, small shop, WIFI and playground. The onsite manor house hosts a dog-friendly restaurant and bar serving evening meals. Surrounded by mature woodlands with direct access to Dartmoor, with Tavistocks amenities just a short drive away. Perfect spot to explore Devon and Cornwall's main attractions Find out more here
Lovely site, with some beautiful views of the surrounding countryside.
We were there during some very gusty weather, but we and everyone else were pre-warned by the site owners.
Sainsbury, Lidl and a 10 min. Park and ride facility were just a 3 minute walk from the site. A bus stop to Totnes was right outside the site, whilst a bus stop to Kingsbridge, Slapton and Torcross was just 5 mins. Away.
The pitches were very spacious and kept immaculately, with any rainwater draining away.
The site owners were brilliant !; they couldn't do enough to assist or give advice, and we would like to thank them for looking after us during our 7 night stay.
Dartmouth is a lovely little town, as are the surrounding towns of Totnes etc.
We would highly recommend, and will definitely be returning.
A lovely site with fantastic facilities, but the wind, we arrived in the heatwave and set up our caravan and awning, 2 days later the wind arrived and did it blow, we were putting pegs back in continuously, in future we will request a pitch along side the hedge.
We used the park and ride where you pay £5 and when giving your ticket to the driver can ask for up to 6 individual tickets, if you are only a couple join with someone else from the site as once you have your tickets you can travel to and from Dartford all day, no limit on journeys.
If you want to use a bus pass catch the service bus at the end of the drive outside Sainsburys.
Try the Round Robin trip, by boat, bus and train, it's not cheap but on a good day it is great or take the bus to Dartmouth then the small ferry to Dartmouth Castle.
If you want a special meal book on the Resnova floating inn, you are picked up by water taxi and returned after you meal which was fantastic, ours cast £35 each for 3 courses and drinks, then catch the 90 bus home using your park and ride tickets, another good place is the Cherub Inn, real ales and good food in a quaint old building, it's up the hill behind the building being rebuilt in the centre of Dartmouth.
Situated on the hill above Dartmouth this is quite a large site. We were on one of some three fields with a hard standing pitch but this was one of several rows of squares set in the grass so you had to walk across wet grass whichever direction you went.
Staff were very helpful and the facilities were excellent being plentiful, fairly new and spotlessly clean.
The site is next to the park & ride and, where in other places, we have used our bus passes on these buses, this was not possible here as you had to obtain a car park ticket to give the driver. Being mean, we walked into Dartmouth several times but the walk back up the hill was quite exhausting.
Sainsburys store is literally opposite the site entrance so shopping for provisions was simple.
Dartmouth was excellent and I could have sat and watched the harbour traffic for hours. We walked to the castle and along some of the coastal path so, all in all an excellent location.
We had a lovely week staying here despite some inclement weather at first. We were kindly offered a choice of pitches and chose the most sheltered one at the bottom of the field in the corner so that when high winds blew, we were still cosy. It was pouring with rain during the night, but the ground obviously drains well.
Everyone working on site was kind and helpful and they were flexible about our family suddenly coming to stay mid-week in another tent. The toilet block was incredibly well equipped - loads of loos, showers, private wash basins etc.
Despite a rally going on in another field, we never had to queue. Also, as mentioned before, kept extremely clean. They provide squeegees and plentiful cloths for visitors to wipe showers and basins in addition to staff doing a great deal of cleaning, too. Also plentiful washing up sinks and laundry facilities.
In the shop they happily freeze packs on a daily basis and simply invite donations to some worthy charity boxes - a generous move on their part.
With shops and park & ride close by, it's very, very convenient. We visited Dartmouth (having an excellent hour-long harbour cruise, not to be missed! Also delicious fish & chips at Rockfish restaurant), Brixham - lovely harbour area, Paignton - touristy but nice and Totnes / Dartington.
As we are involved with the Transition Town movement, Totnes was of special interest as an exemplary eco-town. Great flea market on Fridays.
All in all, we would not hesitate to visit this site again and to recommend it as a wonderful base to explore an attractive and interesting part of the country.
This is the second time we have stayed at Little Cotton and we haven't been disappointed. This is a well planned site with the tent area in the most sheltered part of the site. The caravan area is lovely with a choice of hardstanding (which are all level and flat) or grass pitches.
The site is spotlessly clean as is the shower/toilet block, there are plenty of showers/toilets to serve the site and the shop stocks almost everything.
The dog walking area is the best we've ever seen, clean, tidy, well planned and maintained.
The nearby supermarkets are very convenient, Dartmouth is a bus ride away.
We can't wait to visit again.
