Kevin,

The search facility is a good place to start. The map search is a good one to use:

http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/calcdist.asp?bar=&shop=&restaurant=&md=20&l=50.712113&lg=-3.510132

Not sure about the long stay, but you can only ask.

Oh, and turn your Caps Lock off...Your shouting!

Hope you find somehwhere.

I work at Exeter Airport and I can't think of many in Exeter itself.  The closest commercial site that's open all year appears to be this one at Kenn which is just off the M5 West of Exeter, easy access into the city itself though:

I will keep searching, if I can think of anything else I will reply!

This one is East of Exeter - 3 miles from junction 30 of the M5 and 6 miles into central city centre so probably closer than the one at Kenn.  Looks cheaper aswell.

Now this is a long shot but worth ringing.

This site used to offer caravans for rent (am talking a couple of years ago now), the site is just off junction 27 of the M5 adjoining a pub .  Cannot vouch for their facilities if you are touring (only pass it on the road - have never been in).  The site is about a 25 minute easy motorway drive into Exeter.  Why not give them a ring and see if they still do anything like this?

We stayed at Gosford Park,Little Gosford Farm,Taleford(Ex11 1NA)

Just  a couple of minutes A30,west of Exeter near Fenny Bridges...

The field we pitched in was a CC,CL,however it did look as if they had "capacity" in another field?

It may be worth a phone call?

Kennford International is fine, our van is in storage here and they tow us on and off whenever we want to go down.

The loos are spotless and hot water plentiful and the site is usually pretty quiet. Road noise from A38 to varying degrees depending on wind direction but you soon forget it is there. Easy access straight out to the A38/A30/A380.

I live locally to this site, St Johns Farm and found them very amenable for us to put up our brand new tent to make sure we had everything and no charge for it either.

I cannot find a UKCampsite.co.uk listing, so could not comply with the request to not to link direct to their website
