 Very clean and well looked after, friendly and accommodating staff, good clean toilet and shower block, mainly hard standings but personally prefer a grass pitch which was available on one of the three fields.
A quiet site where one could unwind and only a short 5-10 min walk from the local pub which served nice food and drink. Went to this site in 2018 as well and enjoyed it so much returned again this year and would definitely return.
Handy for Dartmoor and with its central location both coasts. On summer Sundays four trains run a return service to Exeter and just the other side of Tavistock, a lovely town, a train runs a regular service to Plymouth both trains quite inexpensive and lovely journeys.
Recommended.

We were given a very friendly and helpful welcome by the owners- which even extended to photocopied maps and advice on walking routes.
We had an absolutely level pitch for our motorhome and facilities were very clean and well managed. No charge for showers.
Near to a great pub - castle Inn - with morris dancing displays in the street outside the pub for local entertainment.
Thank you - will come again sometime.

We camped here as part of a cycle tour from Lands End to Glastonbury. The site is very clean and well run and has beautiful views. We were here whilst huge gales raged and the wardens were helpful in letting us move to a more sheltered spot. Despite the wind damage and a short electric cut they managed to keep everything going and tidied up all the damage.
The shop was useful and the site is on the edge of the village - with a pub and bus stop nearby.
An excellent place to stay if exploring the west of Dartmoor or further afield.

A good site mainly hard standing pitches, warden takes you to the pitch on arrival. Wardens very friendly and helpful. Wc/Sh block was kept clean, felt it was a bit dated and needs bringing up to todays standards.
Usual service points dotted around the site.
A quiet site on the west side of Dartmoor easy access to walks or a drive out over Dartmoor. Lydford Gorge is a short walk from the site through a very lovely village, we did not visit the gorge as we were told it is quite expensive to gain entrance.
A really great pub in the village served good food and a good pint.

A lovely quiet relaxing site with basic clean facilities. Some trees for shade. Electric hookups are fine. The site warden was very helpful too. Lydford Gorge is close and a must do with its 30 meter waterfall. Take your walking boots. We ate at the local pub which is next to a 13th Century prison/courthouse and a short easy walk from the campsite.
Would certainly stay here again

What a relaxing site - the wardens are very pleasant and helpful and the facilities, whilst basic are clean and well maintained.
Hadn't realised when booking the site that dogs had to be on lead whilst on the dog walk, had I known this I probably wouldn't have booked (we have 3 labradors who need a good run around ! ). We were directed to a recreational field a short distance up the road for off lead exercise, and luckily it was quiet so the dogs could stretch their legs, not sure if it had been busier whether this would be possible.
The 'town' of Lydford is really a village with one pub and not too much else. Had a wander around the castle which was interesting and a little eerie, given its history as a prison. Lydford Gorge is also within walking distance although down quite a steep hill.

Booked three nights wish I had booked longer, great site, very helpful staff and great facilities. We had fourteen nights booked in Cornwall so had to move on but would certainly go again but for longer.

We arrived to a very nice welcome from very friendly helpful staff. We were offered several pitches to chose from and felt very lucky to set up on our eventual choice with superb views over the Dartmoor tors. The site is immaculate, some pitches are small but if you are a motor home not requiring space for a fixed awning it is fine. I have to agree with a previous reviewer that the shower block can be a bit nippy and I found the shower temperature erratic but I couldn't fault the cleanliness. We enjoyed walking Lydford Gorge and visiting Morwellham Quay and general walking on Dartmoor. Have to reiterate how nice the staff are.

Really lovely staff and nice views from the campsite. Good size dog walk on site and a field quite close by where you are allowed to run dogs off lead - which my whippet really enjoyed.
The walk down to the Gorge (NT) was v. Pretty, as was the gorge itself. It was v wet underfoot (cos it was raining) and as I'm not as agile as I used to be, we decided against the 5m circular walk. But we really enjoyed the bit we did and the cafe was up to NT standards.
The castle in the village was interesting, as was the church. We got chatting to a lady cleaning in there and we learnt an awful lot about the place. A lovely area.
The site itself is fine, just not up to CC standards - no reflection on the staff as I suspect it needs a bit of capital investment. And I was chilly in the facilities block.
A first for us, the less than quiet male couple in the caravan next door told us off for playing Radio 2 at 7. 30pm! But shouting to each other about gas bottles etc is presumably okay.
Wish we'd had more time to explore the local area and that the weather had been kinder to us.
