Good for families

A well kept site with good facilities

Our first visit to Hillhead with friends, initially planned to go to the Dartmouth Music festival which had unfortunately changed dates due to the Kings Coronation, which we only became aware 3 weeks prior. The site is big and has a mixture of grass and hardstanding pitches all in nicely landscaped avenues and cul-de-sacs. There are also tent pitches. The grounds looked well cared for, and the facilities were good too and clean. Not sure how many wardens and staff worked at Hillhead, but there were quite a few if you include the bar staff and kitchen team. All the staff we came across were helpful and cheery, and put on a really good get together in the the onsite club and bar which included a glass of bubbly and a tasty free BBQ, whilst we watched the Coronation on the big screen in the club. The site was quite quiet for a bank holiday, probably put off by the awful weather (rain and hill mist every day except one during our stay) and staying at home for the Kings Coronation. We did have a nice meal in the bar on our last night, and on many nights there was entertainment too. Not sure if the swimming pool was open, but it looked a fair size. We would come back again, like this time out of season, as I can imagine how busy this site must be like with 250+ pitches full. Bus Stop at gates for buses into Kingswear, Brixham and Paignton help keep the site connected and a great National Trust house and garden at Coleton Fishacre is a great place to visit.
