A very friendly welcome on arrival. Perfect site for access to local area by bus, train, ferry and bicycle. Very pleasant surroundings amongst hens, ducks and geese. Facilities very clean. Will definitely be returning.
Great little campsite

Great little campsite. Facilities were clean. I think another set of showers would be a good addition as always having to queue, but to be fair it was the August bank holiday weekend, which may be the busiest time of the year. Pitch was in good condition considering the weather we've had recently. Great if you want to bring your dog. Plenty of walks nearby and there are dog friendly sections at Dawlish Warren beach.

We loved the peace and quiet of Hunters Lodge, but found there wasn't much to do close by especially with a dog. However, there is a train station, which is really close by, meaning you can explore further afield. We had some lovely good at The Atmospheric (a pub by the station) and good drinks at The Anchor Inn (the other side by the harbour). There were only 3 toilets and 1 shower (per gender) which I imagine would get really busy when the campsite was fully booked. The facilities were also quite old. There was no hot water available for washing up dishes. Overall, a good stay but, for us, we just needed a few more things to do!
