A gem of a site! This is exactly what I imagine a campsite to be. On a working farm, spacious pitches and no hard standings, with great toilet/shower and washing up facilities, with no games room, club house or bar. As close to perfect for us I think we could find. It was so like Carry On Camping, I expected to see Barbara Windsor and Terry Scott every morning! I can’t praise this site highly enough.
We stayed for 7 nights(early August)- 2 adults in a tent.
The approach is down typically narrow Devon lanes. Great location for access to South Hams, Dartmoor and Torbay areas. Masses of attractions and things to do in these areas.
The site is split into three fields separated by hedges. There was also a rally field and a small 5 caravan section. There are no marked pitches or hardstandings. There was loads of space and never felt crowded, despite being busy. Lots of room for cricket, bike riding, kite flying etc. You got shown where to pitch, but didn’t seem to be any silly rules about which way round etc. There were groups of units facing each other, and tents, caravans and motorhomes all intermingled.
The new facilities block was great. Four massive showers in both the gents and ladies with separate wet and dry areas in each cubicle. It was spotlessly clean, always well stocked with loo roll and the ladies had a hairdryer in. There is also a washing up room with washing machines and dryers (no microwave or freezer though). The reception sells local ice cream, cider and eggs.
There is a recycling area and enclosed rubbish skip near the entrance. Most pitches appeared to have access to EHU although you did need a long lead- our 25m only just reached our pitch! There was a drinking water tap in each field and a CDP outside the facilities block. Grey water went into the hedges.
The village, with a few shops and two pubs, was half an hour walk away, but the lanes are quite busy and I am not sure about walking them after dark.
The site was very quiet after about 9.30pm. Take a good flashlight or torch, as the lights in the facilities block are not on during the night.
For us, this was a fantastic site and we will definitely return.
We stayed at this site for 5 nights and would of stayed longer but had to pick the dogs up from the kennels. The weather was awful the whole time but it was the best holiday we have ever had. The toilet block was lovely with big free showers that had plenty of space for changing and drying. The washing up area was good, unfortunately the washing machine wasn't working the week we stayed.
This is a quiet rural site but within a 5 min drive to a huge morrisons and another 5 to paignton. Would definitely recommend this park. The only downside is for people with caravans, the road leading to the site is fairly narrow and even though I only had a trailer my heart was in my mouth.
What a hidden gem of a site - it is so much better than its website would have you believe!
Stayed in a group of 2 tents & a motorhome in mid August. And despite being one of hte busiest times of the year, it didn't feel crowded and the facilities were absolutely fine for the number of people there.
Well laid out site - very relaxed (unlike some very regimented sites with very specific pitches) - plenty of room for tent, car & shared area between our tents.
There are several large fields partitioned by high hedges to give a feeling of a smaller site.
Small shop for absolute basics - bot don't rely on it for your shopping!
Fantastic main shower & toilet block - always clean and never had to queue. And even when these were being cleaned, there's an older block 50m away you can still use and this is still keep in reasonable condition and was always clean.
Also a great disabled toilet & shower unit with baby changing table too - something of a rarity and much appreciated by us!
Indoor washing up / clothes washing area too.
Although no specific kids play area, there was plenty of safe room for kids to run around.
The only (very minor) criticism I would have is that they could do with some lower sinks for kids to use and maybe a barrier on the main entrance just to increase safety.
Brilliant location for easy access to loads of activities for kids of all ages - we filled a week easily & would have loved to stay longer.
Recommend a visit to Stoke Gabriel for the crabbing and a walk round the lovely village - good pubs, one of which caters well for kids. Lots of lovely beaches, water park, steam train & not too far to Woodlands Theme Park - a very full day out for the under 10's.
Staff on site were friendly & helpful - we will definitely be going back if we spend time in this neck of the woods again.
Visited Broadleigh for a week - mixed weather but had a great time thanks to this great site and facilities. Good mix of tents and caravans with lots and lots of space for each pitch.
Good clean facilities and never had to wait once for the showers which were located in a good modern log style building.
Staff were helpful, informative and kept a good eye on the site throughout our visit. We requested a flat pitch with EHU and got exactly that. One night it was so quiet on site we actually spotted an owl sitting on one of the site's fences. If you want to get back to nature this place really delivers.
The site is down a typical Devon country lane but once you get used to using the vehicle passing bays access to the site wasn't a problem.
No shop on site but not a real problem with Morrisons only 10 minutes drive away at Paignton Zoo. This site is really well located for visiting local Torquay and surrounding area attractions.
I had real reservations about posting a review for this site as it really is one of the best sites we've ever been to and would be concerned that the quiet feel to the place would be lost if too many visitors start arriving. Definitely would recommend this site for those that want a quiet location with good clean facilities.
One of the best camping trips I've ever had and would definitely have a return trip at some point. Broadleigh seems to attract a certain experienced type of camper - no noisy, rude neighbours - hope it stays this way.
We stayed at Whitehill down the road the year before which is also a reasonable site but really not in the same league as this first class site. Couldn't have really asked for more.
Great site wih great facilities. The showers were the best we've seen for a long time and the owners were really friendly and welcoming. The site did have a slope in parts but was mostly flat. One criticism was that it was quite open and lacked natural privacy. Short walk into the village with nice pubs. Worth re-visit!
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
Very quiet site with views over the countryside. No shop or playground on site but plenty of space for kids to run around. Shower block spotlessly clean with free, warm showers but very poorly lit. Not lit at night at all so take your own portaloo.Only two washing up sinks for whole site so it definitely feels geared towards caravans rather than tents.
We have just returned from a week at Broadleigh farm and although it was Autumn it was a very enjoyable stay.
The toilet facilities are very modern and kept to a high standard at all times, although a bit off putting at the lights being switched off at 11pm each night.
The campsite itself is quite sloping but has plenty of electric hook ups and drains well after rain. Plenty of space is allocated for pitches with good open views of rolling hills.
Broadleigh is within 2 miles of Paignton and 5 miles of Torquay and Dartmouth via a small ferry, this makes it an ideal location for seeing the sights of the English riviera, a deffinate thumbs up for us.
Just returned from a UKCS meet for 9 days at this site.
The toilet/shower block is newly built, and well thought out, plenty of room in the showers, although the lights do get turned off at 11.00pm, so take a torch with you LOL also has a nice indoor dish washing and laundry room
Great location close to Paignton, Stoke Gabriel has two small shops, and a couple of pubs.
Only thing I would like to see at this site would be a better childrens play area, other than that were very happy, and will return again.
Really nice site, we stayed in the rally field that had loads of space but on a slight slope, loads of doggie walking fields and loads of hook ups around the field, the toilet block was clean and new but was a bit dark, when the lights did go on in the evening they went off again at eleven, lovely roomy showers could have benefited from a bit of heating. As it was rather cold. The fresh water was in easy reach and they sold fresh eggs in the reception. Would love to go again its a really nice clean site.
Just returned from this lovely site, down in the Devon Hills, the facilities at this site are just out of this world, lovely and clean, fresh and inviting, the toilet and shower block are a credit to the campsite, with free showers on a timer so you just keep hitting the button and stay in as long as you like, all they ask is that you mop the floor after use, what more can you ask for.
Reception is stocked with lots of brochures about surrounding activities and attractions.
The Park itself is lovely and clean, with three fields, which all have electric hook up, and are divided by hedges, huge amounts of room for the kids to play without getting in any ones way, they are dog friendly so you can take mans best friend with you, just have to be aware that there are Geese on the Farm, and they ask that you keep the dog on the lead around the Geese.
Also you your never very far from a fresh water point or elsan point.
The site is about 3 miles from the nearest large town, where we found major super markets, and a fab Cider Farm just round the corner from the site, which sells traditional cider at about £7.00 for 4 litres.
All in all a superb family site, not much for the kids on a dull wet day, but when its dry you wont see them.
We will be returning to this site.
