Liked: Pitch was large and more than adequate for a large caravan with awning. Also great that the awning is included if you want to use one. Very quiet, with lovely clean and well maintained washing facilities. Onsite staff helpful and sprightly 😁. Lots of nearby walking/cycling. Very easy to find and easy roads to tow on to get to the site. 1st visit there and can highly recommend as a seasoned caravan user for 20+ years.
Disliked: Not really anything to dislike, as the site was fairly quiet.

Liked: Lovely location for exploring Dartmoor and the vicinity. Loads of walking over the tors and moors from the camp. Excellent byway if you have a 4x4. Granite way is brilliant for walking and cycling, the views are breathtaking. Tavistock is a must to visit with its many quirky shops. The original pasty shop does the best pasties, even better than Cornwall. The facilities at Lydford campsite are always clean and well maintained as is the grounds. The wardons are the friendliest we have ever come across in all our many years of travelling the country. There is always a friendly smile and wave as you come and go and nothing is too much trouble. Will definetely be back.
Disliked: Paying extra for Wifi as most campsites provide it. No 'off the lead' dog exercise area.
