A brilliant stay!

A truly lovely stay at Harford Bridge. The staff were great, the facilities were brilliant and clean at all times. It was busy for the bank holiday but didn’t feel it! A great location by the river and for walks on Dartmoor.

Superb Campsite

We absolutely loved this campsite. Everything was perfect from spacious flat pitches, beautifully attended grounds, exceptionally clean and plentiful showers, toilets, washing and washing up facilities. Really friendly and helpful staff and set in the most stunning location. We will be back!

Beautiful

Had 3 nights just after May bank holiday, very peaceful. Site itself is lovely and so to were the staff

Lovely Site by the river Tavy.

This a a lovely site. Very clean toilets and showers. We had a spot right next to the river which was idyllic. The site is within walking distance to Tavistock Town centre and we also walked to the villages of Peter Tavy and Mary Tavy where you can find nice pubs which do food. I would say that if you wanted to venture a bit further that either a bike or car is a good idea, however there is a bus stop near the campsite.

Site's response

Thank you for your lovely review. We’re so pleased you enjoyed your stay and made the most of the riverside pitch and local walks into Tavistock and the nearby villages. It’s great to hear you found the facilities clean and the location convenient, with good transport options available too. We hope to welcome you back again soon!

Clean, quiet campsite perfect for a relaxing time away

Visited this campsite for the first time this weekend (mid April). The weather wasn’t kind to us but the campsite made up for it. We were greeted warmly at reception and shown directly to our pitch with information leaflets for hot food and WiFi information. The field down by the river has a lovely view where we were blessed with a beautiful sunset, and is nice and flat for parking up. The facilities were very clean and tidy with equipment to clean up after ourselves. It was also lovely and warm in the bathrooms and showers which helped when visiting in the colder months. During the night the campsite is quiet and calm so it is easy to get a good nights sleep. Would definitely visit again in the future.

Thank you for your wonderful review, we’re really pleased you enjoyed your stay despite the weather! It’s great to hear you felt welcomed on arrival, enjoyed the riverside pitch and sunset, and found the facilities clean and comfortable. We’re also glad the quiet atmosphere helped you get a good night’s sleep. We really appreciate your kind words and look forward to welcoming you back again soon!

Loved it!

Great site, really friendly and helpful owners and staff. Warm, clean toilet and shower facilities, including piped music! Washing up and laundry rooms were very good. Well worth the visit and distance travelled to a very well run site. Only minor complaint would be some noisy neighbours late at night, but that's down to inconsiderate people, nothing to do with the site itself?

Easter weekend.

Though it was an Easter weekend there was not a lot of children around, but the ones that were there were quit. The staff were very friendly, always said hello.

Site's response

Thank you for your kind review. We’re glad you enjoyed a peaceful Easter stay and that the children present were well behaved. It’s also lovely to hear your positive comments about our friendly team, we’ll be sure to pass that on. We hope to welcome you back again soon!

Wonderful site

We went for a long weekend out of season. So peaceful, very clean and well kept. Good facilities, I will definitely visit again!

Hello Darren, thank you for your review. We are pleased that you enjoyed your recent stay with us, despite the mixed weather conditions. We very much look forward to welcoming you back again - maybe next spring?

Great campsite

Just had a few days here and had a great time. The campsite is well maintained, lovely heated shower and toilets, with music playing. Great dog shower. We camped by the river which was lovely. Nice pub for tea in Peter Tavy about a 25 minutes walk. Tavistock about a 40 minutes walk or bus stop near campsite.

Hello Diane, thank you for your review. We are delighted by your comments, following your recent stay with us and that you were able to enjoy the facilities at the site and the surrounding area. We very much hope to be able to welcome you back in the not too distant future.

Perfect pitch

We stayed here for a long weekend. My partner, her mom, our daughter and of course our lab, Diamond. We found the place to be very clean, quiet and well laid out. Our pitch was the perfect size for our 8.4 mtr motorhome, which we parked across the pitch, giving us a little private area to sit in. My partner uses a powerchair and she found the facilities perfect for wheelchair use. The only real problem was the disabled shower. The shower head is fixed and when turned on, you have to become friendly with the wall, as you need to get close to it to be under the hower. There is a great kids play area that our daughter loved, keeping her happy for ages before tea, and they have a games room, although we didn't get time to check it out.

Hello Richard, thank you very much for your review, we are all delighted that you and your family enjoyed your stay at Harford Bridge Park. Thank you, also, for your comment with regards to the accessible/family showers - we've not had that comment before, but will now definitely have a look at them through the winter months to see if we can make any alterations. We hope to welcome you back in the not too distant future.

Very good and will return

A bit out of the way, but there is a request bus stop at the top of the road on the bridge. Half hour walk to the Peter Tavy Inn - you need to book - very good food. Well kept site. Facilities were ok - bit dated, but clean enough and warm. Lovely play area for children. Small shop on site for essentials and a very good games room with pool table, table football, books etc. Not overly friendly on reception which was a shame, but coming to the end of the season, so perhaps it can't come soon enough for them!

Hello Karen, thank you for your review. We're pleased you enjoyed the play area, games room, and our on-site shop, as well as exploring the local area. We're sorry that reception didn't feel as welcoming as it should have—your feedback is appreciated and will be taken on board. We hope to welcome you back soon and make your next stay even better!

Wonderful site, fantastic welcome

Wonderful couple of nights camping by the river with a lovely warm welcome from the wardens who are simply lovely. Perfect setting - peaceful with the only sound being the river running right next to our tent. Facilities all spotlessly clean - great showers etc. Very welcoming of dogs and the site has its own separate files for exercising dogs off lead. Close to the lovely town of Tavistock and a good pub in Peter Tavy. Great for walks on Dartmoor too. We will definitely be back - many times!

Site's response

Hello Joanne, thank you for your review we are so pleased that you enjoyed staying with us as much as we enjoy working here. It truly is a fantastic spot to relax, but we also have easy access to Dartmoor and the rest of Devon & Cornwall for those feeling more adventurous. We really do look forward to welcoming you back.

Great site - well organised - well run

We were really pleased from the moment we arrived. The reception from the staff was first rate and the initial appearance of the site was excellent. As we moved to our pitch, it became apparent that we had been given a great pitch near the river, not too far from the facilities and not cheek by jowl with hoards of screaming children. We had a fabulous few days, helped along by a strangely sunny bank holiday weekend. My only gripe is that the facilities are a little tired but at the same time, spotlessly clean. I would also have expected there to have been more than one set of facilities but having said that, I never found them overcrowded, so what do I know? Sadly, we had to leave 2 nights early as rain was forecast and our tent is TC and 57kgs dry! Trying to lift a wet tent and then dry it once home does not bear thinking about. However, that was our decision and will not put us off coming back again. We will happily recommend this site to anyone who's prepared to listen to us. Oh, by the way, one real bonus was the take away food stall, Peckish (next to reception and the shop). Available Friday and Saturday (pre-ordering by the Harford Bridge app makes this so easy), it's lovely to give cooking a rest now and then and treat yourselves to some very tasty grub.

Hello Richard, thank you so much for taking the time to write your review. We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay. Our large pitches are definitely a big plus, especially during peak times such as August Bank Holiday, giving families and couples a sense of space and room to breathe and enjoy our wonderful countryside park. We look forward to welcoming you back.

Great campsite

Lovely campsite highly recommended.

Hi Sarah, thank you for your review. We hope to be able to welcome you back again sometime?

Very good

A few issues. Hand dryer not working, ladies toilets. Fresh tap water points-definite plus! Pitch was a tad unkempt. The takeaway can service is only a available on Friday and Saturday - not much use to a mid week stay.

Site's response

Hello David, we hope that you enjoyed your recent stay with us? Thank you for taking the time to write your review and for highlighting your findings.. The problem with the hand-dryer in the ladies' toilets, has now been sorted by our maintenance team. We are sorry that you found the pitch unkempt. Being located within Dartmoor National Park, we have a strong wildlife ethos and the hedges do not get cut during the bird nesting season. This does come with challenges as we strive to operate along that fine line of keeping pitches clear and birds happy. Our team of gardeners are now fully occupied cutting the hedging back now that the nesting season is over. We are sorry that you were disappointed not to be able to make use of our food van "Peckish", but we have found from experience that we do not have the demand to make it viable to open during the week. We appreciate your review and hope that we have answered your comments. We do hope that we can welcome you back to Harford Bridge Park in the future.

Beautiful site

Fantastic facilities. Immaculate site. Very spacious pitches. Quiet friendly site located in beautiful surroundings. Immaculate bathrooms with great facilities. Dog grooming room with heated shower and grooming station. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Small shop with a few basic items. I would suggest bringing what you need ahead of time. There's a free family games room. This has games tables, huge tv and books and board games. There's a dog walking field and walks. Lots of space for children to ride bikes and run around. Excellent site with fab disabled bathroom. Ideal for couples, families with young children and older adults. Very tranquil and relaxing place.

Hello Lynne, what a fabulous review - thank you so much. We are all delighted that you enjoyed your recent stay with us and hope that we will see you again in the not-too-distant future.

Good location, fun and clean

Great location for Dartmoor and the kids loved splashing in the river. Facilities were always clean. Pitch was ok, in a great location for the river but a but bumpy and far for small children to walk to toilets.

Site's response

Hi Tom, thank you for your review, we are so lucky to have the River Tavy on our boundary - it's a great place to dip your toes and cool off. We were surprised and sorry that you found the pitch a little lumpy, we've not had anyone mention this before. The toilet blocks a bit far for little ones, but it's a popular area for those that like to be away from it all. We hope to see you again in the future - hopefully next time we can get you a bit nearer the facilities.

Perfect little campsite

Lovely campsite with friendly staff and clean and convenient facilities. We would absolutely book again, there's plenty to explore nearby.

Fantastic for so many reasons

Fantastic site. Lovely staff especially Dolly and Dougie. Large pitches. Relaxed atmosphere. Super clean and imaginative facilities. Easy walk into Tavistock via a pub 😉 then bus back. They have loads of diff accommodation on site suiting everyone I would think. Will definitely be back.

Hello Deborah, we are so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your recent stay with us. We will pass your comments across to Dolly & Dougie, our amazing wardens, they do a fantastic job. Also good to hear that you made use of the nearby pub, the Trout & Tipple, which is definitely a handy stop off if walking into or back from Tavistock. We hope to welcome you back to Harford Bridge Park soon.

Excellent!

Stunning campsite, with excellent service from the staff. Facilities are 5* and kept incredibly clean. Play area is also very good and plenty of room between pitches.
