What customers say
Quarry Lake Campsite: Tranquil escape, lovely views, quiet vibes. Ben, the owner, gets rave reviews for friendliness. Clean facilities, hot showers. Basic, but pleasant pitches. Good for coastal walks & pubs. No Wi-Fi a plus for digital detox. Watch for signage & no dedicated drinking water tap.

Liked Great host, welcomed us and even took the time to show my 3 year old the cows on site. Toilets are clean and hot water available to shower and wash cooking items. Short drive to Dartmouth and Blackpool Sands
Disliked Not a fault of the campsite but the sat nav takes you on some proper single lane country roads so be prepared to stay alert on your drive in

Primitive grass RV campsite
Liked Lovely quiet field with sunset view and picturesque rolling hills.
Portaloo toilets and basic dishwashing station.
A nice horse box converted to two separate showers with nice hot water.
This isn’t a sandals resort by any means, but it does what it says on the tin. A nice place to pitch up for the night near the Devon coast.

Primitive grass RV campsite
Liked Lovely quiet site on top of hill. Great views. Could be quite windy. Basic but very clean. 2 portaloos, 2 very large showers with hot water. 1 washing up sink under shelter. Light switches in all facilities. No separate drinking water tap. Friendly farmer who popped over to clean regularly. Narrow lanes (of course) Dartmouth and coastal walks very close.

Great stay, thoroughly recommend.
Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked We had a great stay at Quarry Lake campsite. The field was very well kept and clean, with plenty of options for flat pitches. The campsite is in a lovely peaceful quiet area but close enough to local amenities. The toilets and showers were perfect for what we needed - clean, and well maintained. The showers were lovely and hot with good pressure. Both the toilets and showers had good lighting. It was great to have hot water for washing up. The owner was really friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back to stay again and recommend this campsite.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Ben, the farmer/owner - he was a great host! We liked that the site was on a working farm (the cows were great!) and the simplicity (portaloo and converted cow trailer for hot showers)! It was a beautiful field! Thank you so much Ben! P.s. There was no wifi, but we put all *'s rating as we liked that!
