Good for families

Good location but a few issues.....

We stayed for 10 nights during August - first time to Devon as we usually venture to Cornwall. I agree with a lot of the other reviews - whilst the site is large, the pitches are way too close together. We were lucky and found a pitch (80) in a small 'cul-de-sac' so it was nice and quiet with no one walking past (apart from people in the other couple of caravans) and we weren't on the main road that a lot of the pitches are. It is so tight that cars can't park next to the caravans and are often parked in front, partly sticking out onto the road. I also had issues with the cleanliness of the toilet blocks - there was a shortage of toilet roll (out of around 10 toilets, only one had loo roll in), and people seem to have issues in cleaning the showers after they have used it - it doesn't take much to walk out the shower, get the squidgy mop thing, clean the floor, close the curtain. I'd like to think people would leave the cubicle how they would like to find it. I went in once and there was talc (i mean who still uses talc??) all over the floor and the bench. I appreciate wardens can't keep an eye on this 24/7 but perhaps a few notices around the showers reminding people to clean up after themselves wouldn't go amiss? On the plus side, the kids loved the pool (didn't venture in myself), and the park. We didn't go into the restaurant. There was also a lot of dog poo left in the dog walking area - again maybe some signs reminding people to pick up after their dogs.....? Location wise, it was great for Dartmouth and about an hour from Salcombe. We also visited Becky Falls, Babbacombe model village and Bygones, and various other spots. I don't think we would go back to this site in the peak of summer.
