Liked: Warm and friendly owners who acknowledged you when they see you during your stay.
Location, altho near dual carriageway is convenient for car trips out to surrounding areas.
Easy access on to Granite Way for walkers and cyclists - you can head towards Okehampton and Lydford... with a few tors and routes to scenic places within walking distance.
Clean facilities.

Liked: I’d booked to come hiking and cycling with my son for the weekend… sadly he got a better offer and went surfing with his mates instead 🤣 so it was just me as my wife wasn’t keen.
It’s an excellent site, good, well maintained and very clean facilities, plus a warm welcome from the owner when I arrived.
This is a perfect location for hiking and cycling on the north end of Dartmoor, with direct access to the hill.
Definitely recommend and will be back.

Liked: Location and quality of the site were excellent. Ian the owner is a lovely chap. Direct access onto car free walks (or rides) straight off the site, this was excellent. We were on foot, walking our dog, but if you like a bit of push biking you could clock up some miles on the old railway line. We ate pizza at the bike shop located right by the front gate, this was lush. Then went back in the morning for the breakfast roll. A great short break for us not far from home.
